How to make a cheap and easy top tube fixie/BMX pad

[R310x]

I MADE IT !!

[AHHDRATS]

Just finished my pad, looks great! Letting it dry before cutting and putting on my bike. Used Calvin Klein denim from an old pair of jeans.. Do you have a Facebook that I could add you on, and hit you with photos? Props on the video, really helped. Also love the bike and the 'Thats what she said.' sticker..

Also, thought it was really cool that you used your grandfathers shirts. Really good idea!

@aidilashz99 nice! you should make a response video of it

[aidilashz99]

@BackyardAmusement okey

[aidilashz99]

where to get that pipe insulation..?



[BackyardAmusement]

@aidilashz99 any kind of hardware store. manards and home depot are the main ones in the states. it is a plumbing supply.

[aidilashz99]

@BackyardAmusement thanks



[aidilashz99]

@BackyardAmusement but i've go to the hardware but they dont have it...

[BackyardAmusement]

@aidilashz99 it would be with plumbing stuff. you could always google it and buy it off line.

[aidilashz99]

@BackyardAmusement i've go to all the shop,home depot

..but they dont have

[kurtskateable]

Fucking love your bike dude

[BackyardAmusement]

@kurtskateable THANKS BRO!

[kurtskateable]

@BackyardAmusement Did you build it up or buy it??? What type of riding do you do???

[BackyardAmusement]

@kurtskateable yeah, everything is custom. heres a vid of it now completed

/watch?v=R38Zzbp0Kms&list=PL02­BFF15EEB448648

i just ride street.

[kurtskateable]

@BackyardAmusement I followed the link and it looks tight!!!! You have some sick parts on that thing. I have a single speed racing bike (not fixed) and I was wondering instead of buying a whole new hub, can you just take a regular hub and make it fixed some how??? I don't think it's possible.

[BackyardAmusement]

@kurtskateable thanks! it depends, newer hubs are "flip flop" so u can put a freewheel on one side and fixed on the other. but if it's not threaded for a cog and lockring there's no way to convert it.

[kurtskateable]

@BackyardAmusement Yeah thought it went some thing like that. Cheers I'm just gonna have to find one then eh.

[bumpinimpala]

props for using your granddad's shirt

[aol328]

No doubt...it's also a good way to cover up a dimple on the top tube. Good vid brah...!

[TheTranceHeaven]

what is that spray thing called ? this is a cool explanation though.

[BackyardAmusement]

@TheTranceHeaven if you just went to a hardware store and asked for "spray adhesive" they'll show you. its literally just glue in a spray can.

[TheTranceHeaven]

@BackyardAmusement okay forsure :D. thank you very much.

[xfuhfellyhelp]
