- Hey guys my name is noah!! In this video I confront the issue of slipping handle bars, this is when your bars move forward and backwards while you're riding. This is the first in a series of videos i would like to call bike hacks, where i show you how to fix certain things and show you easier ways of doing things that you will experience while riding BMX.

I got an idea that I haven't tried yet but I think might work really good. Try wrapping the bars in Teflon tape where the grooves are. Since Teflon tape is used for plumbing and stuff to wrap threads and pipes to create a water tight seal, it holds the pipe threads in place and in my mind that makes me think it would be good to stop bar slip. Plus if the bars are wrapped in Teflon tape it would prevent the metal on metal scraping caused by the grooves in the bars and not create any grit.
I dont think that would work the tape is kind of a lubricant because with the tape you can twist fittings more with them on so with the bars it might encourage slipping
Nah bro i tried it slips more
@@emojipark yeah that makes sense. I thought Teflon tape added friction or grip to things, because I've only seen it used on threading for metal pipes, so it made sense to me that if it can add grip to metal pipe threads then it should do the same to handle bars
@@doodbro931 yea i thought the same too
Cool Video, I'm 51 and I've always used a used toothbrush or a wire brush on the handlebars to get the dirt and grit out of the grooves to get it a way better grip. Using a T-shirt does clean them but not as good... Keep up the cool work.
KARMA2369 i did that with a wire brush and they completely snapped off
Thanks so much bro, I’ve just been bringing my Allen wrench with me every ride. This is so helpful.
Of course man I’m glad I could help you!
I always find it funny when kids ride around with Chicago bars thinking it makes them cooler/better
Mil Bai yeah... that is why its so funny. Cuz i realised i was stupid ash so i stopped
A wire brush instead of sand paper would work a little better so you have the stem longer you can also take that wire brush to the bars
This guy deserves a subscribe
Thank you for getting to the point of the video and helping me out man, like the only video that gets to the point and is informative. Keep up the good stuff man!
of course man thank you for the encouragement it has been almost a year since I made this video and your comment has inspired me to make more videos!
This Is a Good tutorial and very helpful
I used to just used a layer or two of duck tape and it usually worked. If you have a hand file you could put groves into the metal so it grips better.
You just saved my life I was just about to get a new bar thinking my bar is broken
Me too
I m a dirt jump rider and at every i have the same problem.. I will apply your method and i ill update soon!
Sorted it! Cheers fella
headphone users warning
I was like _’what’s he talking about”’_
And then it hit me straight in the ears jeezus, 0:40 watch out lmao
Yo fr tho
haha I'm 5'11" almost 6'3" too!
My bike has apes and slippage is just part of my day. I wonder if JB Weld would hurt?
did you end up trying jb weld? i'm curious of the result
I'm guessing your name is Noah thankyou for this I keep trynna fix this in multiple ways but this is the only way that worked😁
I’m glad I could help you out man! Have fun riding!
Thanks bud that really helped took minutes 👍
You should make more videos I love it
Yeah this should help with bars on my motorcycle. Some problem when I go off road, standing position puts enough pressure to shove them down against my tank. Not the greatest when I'm on a 1 foot wide dirt trail with rocks on either side. Thanks!
Haha yeah that sounds like an issue. I hope this helps you out!!
Thank you this will really help
Thank you so much, this was so helpful
What kind of sand paper should I use
hey sorry i missed this i used 100 grit
I have stripped boltd😢
Thank you so much
Thanks for the help
I’m 6’1 should I have my bars parallel or a little forward
A little forward
@@skipper3394 I have em a little forward
Thank you good sir
Thanks man
thanks dude!
Is there anything else I can use beside sand paper?
What grit level sandpaper and enoughwhat kinda san slickdpaper that's another reason
Yoooo I like your channel man I'll shout you out
U have 7 subs how are you going to shout him out
D3stiny Z - Lol exactly. 🤣
What if my bars are the one that are stripped how to I fix that ?
Please answer I have a bmx race and I need to know!!!🙏
Its easy. If its keeps slipping because its has no grips or thread alread to be clamped or press by the stem . The solution is a tin can. Cut square pieces or fold up and down between the bars in the stem to be clamped like a sandwich. I learned it from my friend from year 2017 up until now i been using these method cause I dont have budget for new bars. And I dont intend to buy cause ive used my old bars when i do 5-6ft drop stage way back before and its pretty strong . But havent tested these tin can method in high drops. But its strong doing 180 360 drops on pads it doesnt have a slipping problem. And the 2nd solution if you cant afford to buy new ones is cut the tube replace it thats what my friend 2nd method itried it and its pretty strong. For drops .but still depend if your a pro or massive I dont recommend it
Thanks man! Definitely wil have to try this out
What if you can’t take the bar out, how are you going to sand?
ya dont
Yoo, whats the song name?
What is name of this stuff ?
Yo for everyone here my bars slide a little bit should i do this. Im new to bmx
Yeah man absolutely
What bike model is that ?
Dude I wish I knew I still have it but I’ve been out of bikes for a min
Use assembly grease. Thats what it is for.
Indeed, unfortunately I was out of that.
Bars still slipping for me :/
What grit sandpaper did you use also try replacing the Alen head bolts with resular bolts if you cab find and that should allow you to tighten them further
this is probbs too late to help u but it happend to me so i did what this vid told me to do and it didnt work so i tried putting some silicone grease on the bolts and its solved the problems
I just weld my bars on
Im about to weld my bars as well
It didn’t work
