Some more info: Sprockets and 1 piece drivers are mainly used in freestyle, but there are some 1 piece drivers and sprockets used in racing (usually they’re profile). Freewheels and cogs are mainly used in racing (you might find them on old freestyle bikes). Cogs are used most, and the hub is called a cassette. Freecosters are only used in freestyle. While not every race hub is an actual cassette, they all function the exact same as a cassette. Chainrings are only used in racing (though I do know there’s an old odyssey sprocket that had a little baby chainring. Also old freestyle bikes had chainrings). A spider is used to make the chainring work like a sprocket, like Phu said, but 90% of race cranks have the spider as part of the crank. Chainrings come with 4 bolt holes and 5 bolt holes, depending on what you need, and you can’t miss match either with the others crank/spider. Hope this helps someone😄

0:27 "...a cog is usually worked in the rear ...of the bike." (alfredo laughs in a "that's what she said" tone)🤙🏼 😆

Before we get ahead of ourselves we need a video on the differences between a race bmx and a freestyle bike in todays day and age (not like the early 80s where one bike was for everything).

God damn 2020 is the year of self learning!!! I have learned so much this year than the 15 yrs of system schooling.

My grandson of 10 years rides skateboards , scooters and I just bought him wethepeople BMX , your channel is awesome , thank you :-)

Im eating alfredo chicken pasta as i watch this

Really good series! Now taking down a BMX old Mongoose to mod up for some adult riding with new gear rear end. You're the go to shop. Thanks from the "old man".

As an older guy who grew up with 1 piece cranks this is very helpful for understanding todays tech, thanx man appreciated

thank you this is what I needed to know. keep killing it my guy.

The earth is a flat plane and the compasses are all pointing at paradise. I like the videos from epic the bmx shop.

I have that exact Shadow spline drive sprocket. I never mounted it because I simply can't get it on my spindle. A video covering how to mount a spline drive sprocket would be great as well as one covering the use of a crank puller which can also be a nightmare to use as I recently found out. Love your how-to videos, I never miss one. :)

Alf covering the mic for over half the vid caused a jumpscare when he wasn’t anymore 😂

Thanks for this video Alfredo sir...

I wish you were in Georgia!!

Awesome!

Love being early to your videos Alf!!

so interesting!!

Mr. Cogsly and Spacely Sprocket

Im supporting forsure for free knowledge...

Epic yay. Thanks alf for makin this happen. My question for phu is how does he keep his hair so fresh?

I wanna see a cruiser 24 build and ride

Oh damn I’m early and psa is better 😤❤️

I love learning.. But I fuckin live to learn from this man

Really expected a classic phu bad dirty joke atleast once when discussing all those holes.

Holy shit i leveled up hard with this lol

I use a 28 & 9 on my Specialized fuse one Koi and it works pretty good for me. I can get speed pretty quickly and still climb hills, do catwalks, and spin my rear wheel on gravel. I think I want to go balls out and go 36/9. Am I thinking unrealistically? What's your opinion?

Should I get a new sprocket because where the whole it rip wider for even tho I have the adapter in it to me it doesn't feel right

Guess who’s early? Haha me and everyone else that’s early

Alf what is a good ratio for torque and speed for freestyle bmx mainly for park and street mate thanks

You need to have a video about race bike parts.

Ok so my bike has a “chain ring” can I swap it out for a shadow sprocket?

No one talks about nonagon sprockets!! Odyssey Killington Nonagon Sprocket, Proper microlite nonagon sprocket!

22t??

Why wasn’t u in subrosa battle of the brands ?

Where you located

I get the feeling someone ordered the wrong shit. lol

Anything about cruisers? 24"

Discuss cranks in the next video pleeasss

👍🏿

What are the prices on some of these

i so confuncio

Where were you in 1983?

I got scared when he showed the sprocket and said it's always 24 and they give you a little washer to make the hole smaller to fit because I ordered a bigger sprocket and I feel like it wont fit now although it's the same brand as the parts on my bmx so maybe I'll be fine

Anyone else notice cog is in the title twice?

Ohh im early

Sup

Second

It pays to have a great paying job to pay for the proper parts. Knowledge has been dropped.

Alf I’m first 22 seconds

No one gonna point out it says cogs twice in the tital

1080p my ass
