BMX Complete Bicycle Buying Guide

Buying a complete BMX bike can be a real hassle. If you are in the market for a new bike watch this video where we break down the main differences in BMX bikes and why they are different.
If you have any Questions please leave a comment
BMX has taken a technological boost in the last decade towards providing better quality materials which has kind of changed the market of hi tensile bmx bikes. At one time, bikes with a similar "low" side description were good but other materials and manufacture processes have affordably taken hold.
This has also made hi tensile bikes even more cheaper, since those cheaper materials are not widely used as much, you can no longer trust the quality of them. There isn't any demand for quality with those types of bikes so they don't have it anymore.

My parents don't know the difference between "Walmart bikes" and a average bike.😢

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Andrew 2784 There is a mountain bike youtuber that took the nicest Walmart bike he could find down a trail. It broke before the bottom of the run.

[@andyroo8j422]

+The BNC (Bmx News Channel) yeah. I'm pretty sure I watched that and both of his brakes stopped working.🙄

[@andyroo8j422]

+The BNC (Bmx News Channel) and I was wondering if my weight affected what bike I should get?

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+MinimaMinecraft Price will never tell you what it is made out of... In the product description for the bike it should say what the frame is made out of

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+TrendSet SB That's awesome!!!!!!!

[@gotworc]

my first bmx was high tensile steel and I learned 180, 360, barspins, grind tricks, and lots of other tricks worked fine for me

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+LinkzTV That's what they are there for but it also depends on your style... Some people bail a lot as beginners and slam their bike down into grinds before they really learn them. I couldn't ride hi tensile when I was learning because I would bend frames like candy I was so rough. For me it was more beneficial to buy one chromoly bike that would last a couple years as opposed to going through 2 & 3 hi tensile frames a year.

[@ducac-0457]

My first bmx that i seriously rode was a wethepeople arcade 2014. It saw 540 s, barspins, gaps and sets too. After 5 years it only needed a rear rim replacement. Still i eventually upgraded with a better bmx aftermarket but still i ll keep the arcade for the sake of memories of what i started out woth

[@bigsmoke1811]

Well hi-ten steel is pretty strong and can handle just as much as chromolly but is very heavy so when you get a light bike made of hi-ten steel it's weak so combining the two is a pretty good idea because you can use thinner chromolly tubes and thicker steel tubes for about the same weight and full chromolly is the best there is because it's durable and lightweight

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+ricky spanish Very educated comment. I've been trying explain to people that Hi tensile steel can be just as strong but not when made into a lighter weight bike such as chromoly. One thing I have noticed over the years is the weld combining both metals in a partial chromoly frame crack a lot soon than you should expect.

[@bigsmoke1811]

The BNC (Bmx News Channel) true I recently got a 2017 gt performer and the frame is half chromolly half steel it can take a beating but I'm currently looking for a better frame because the rear triangle is already bending also the only good Walmart bike was full chromolly but isn't made anymore the mongoose mode 540 was the best bike for the price but still isn't the best sry it took so long to reply I never got a notification on my phone

[@dajam9035]

I don't know if you are still replying to comments on here but I have a question. I'm looking to make my bike lighter and the best thing I can think of is to go out and buy a full chromoly frame. I have a custom kink curb. I would be happy with my bike just losing two pounds from that. Anything lower than that, I'm not going to waste the effort. The frame I am looking at is cult hawk.

[@anonomous2221]

I think the late 90s was the best time for BMX. BMX was thought of as just fad of the 80s and it seemed that way since it was nearly dead by 1989. but after 1995 there was a BMX renaissance. This could have been due to the rapid technological development of the mountain bike during the 90s which brought attention to all bikes in general. This along with the X Games brought on a resurging popularity of BMX. The point I was trying to make is that it seems that today you don't really have BMX bikes in the mid range that are all that great. You just have high end or cheap stuff now. Back in the late 90s a mid quality bike would have a full cromoly or aluminum alloy frame but have a one piece crank and three piece cranks were on higher end bikes. You are better off putting a one piece crank on a better quality frame than a cheap frame with a three piece just to make it look good.

+Magfed Saint Honestly it's kind of outdated. Since you come from motocross you probably want a more study bike with sealed bearing and some chromoly in the frame material. Hi-tensile steel is not as strong as chromoly.

[@SiggyCloud]

So according to this list a Haro Boulevard 2016 would not be a terrible pick for a beginning bike, In Medium: Integrated Head tube 3pc Chromoly cranks. Sealed Mid BB Sealed 9T Cassette Hub in Low: Hi Tensile Steel Frame Single Wall Rims From what I've read and seen and heard it's more or less not bad for a starter and with a relatively affordable price (£250) It's not too bad in my opinion. Anyone have any thoughts or comments on that? Preferably constructive ones.

[@barelyillegal9944]

Haros arent horrible bikes, I started off on one personally. A tensile frame may be an issue, however its not actually a huge deal to replace, and if you can get a bike with some solid pieces (chromoly cranks, decent hub) it will work as a starting point, however if you want to be riding for a long time, its probably a good idea to look a bit more upmarket.

Which complete setup should I chose if I need high.

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Mitya bozhko There are a ton of choices. Between all the high end bikes the ones that are most expensive are kind of gimmicks. Don't get me wrong, they are some of the best bikes out there, but their jacked up prices are because they offer the most popular/expensive parts like custom bikes.. If you don't know exactly what you want in a bike than a $1000 bike is a waste. You can pick a bike like the Kink Whip or Mongoose R120 and have a legitimate high end spec bike but with out the exclusive name brand parts which jack the price up.

[@SKEC212]

I know a shit ton more now than I used to know. The only thing you left out was the different styles of spokes and if it matters for strength? Are the plastic pedals as good as the aluminum ones? Do those metal discs that protect the hub and spokes, does that come as part of the frame?

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Shaun Kelly All though you & I know what that stuff is, they are not "common" things you see in sale descriptions. I left little stuff like that out to try and not confuse parents or beginners. We plan to have more videos soon that should help...Thank you so much for your feedback! - To answer your questions: Types of spokes are not a big deal. The backbone of any strong BMX wheel is a quality rim and proper truing regardless of what spokes you have.. With pedals it's more of a preference. I personally ride plastic after riding metal for a long time and they are similar in reliability. If you grind a lot a plastic pedal can wear down really quick though.. Metal is heavier and can knock your shins harder so it really preference... Those disks that protect hubs are called grind guards. They are not part of frames but they are sold and installed for hubs.. They slide over the axle or install onto the hub. We have a video that can give you a general idea of a plastic grind guard called "Merritt Tension BMX Hub Guard".

+Alejandro4891 Try looking into these sites: Https://www.danscomp.com Https://www.albes.com Https://www.chainreactioncycles.com I suggest a full Chromoly set up. But the size bike I recommend is at least a 21" Top Tube (TT). I am the same height as you and I ride a 21. The reason why I suggest spending the extra money for a full Chromoly is because non full chromoly set ups are more for teenage beginners.. At 25 fully grown I recommend full chromoly. It will last longer.

+Alejandro4891 Also you are tall like me, so taller rise handlebars would feel more comfortable for you. At least 8.5" rise bars and higher.

[@erikmisenis9702]

Hi guys, Im thinking of buying my first ever bmx bike and i was wondering if this is good for a beginner: 3 piece tubular chromoly crank 25/9 gearing with cassette rear hub Double wall alloy rims with 2.25" Grey wall tyres Intergrated seat and seatpost Chromoly rear axle Sealed bottom bracket Thanks :)

If i can ride it without it getting destroyed it’s good enough for me.

[@maxgraupmann9889]

The video is great

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+moto games Thank You! Much appreciated!

[@thatchermccool3619]

Is the se everyday good?

[@Twistt.]

What would be a good $300-$400 bike? And is that a good price for a good bike?

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Its Flyt Yes that's about the start price for a good medium bike. The 2016 Kink whip is a really good buy for just over 400.

[@Twistt.]

Thank you!

[@JesseWelds]

I'm a skateboarder and I just want something light and cheap to get places faster than skating... would a low end bike be acceptable?

[@Taylor-ij4fr]

Unll2eaL li if it's just to ride around and not doing tricks then just get like a Walmart bike...

[@DanielPolivoda]

the only thing that I don't like about this vid is the casste hub and the freecoaster cassette dosent mean it's a bad bike some people love casste hubs and some people love coasters I'm a casste rider and so is scotty cranmer and a lot of other people and some people love freecoasters like Brandon begin or Stevie it's all about what you like and I try to be different

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Dannydoesbmx I said in the video that It's only a price difference...

[@scottcampbell1793]

It's about time. Thank you for the rational version. I get the physics, now tell me why it makes sense for ME ... No Bullshit. ALUMINUM OR STEEL? If any part of your bike is steel, it's probably 4130. Easy to make and unbelievably cheap, it is a workhorse metal. For steels, the first two numbers indicate the principle alloying elements, a lot like the first number in aluminum alloys. 41 is the area code for chromium and molybdenum. You would probably never guess that all the 'chromoly' in your frame weighs less than the meat in a Big Mac. The last two numbers, 30, represent the carbon content of the steel in hundredths of a percent. So 4130 contains 0.30% carbon. This is a critical amount that represents a compromise between strength and ease of weldability. Steels with less carbon aren't as strong. Steels with more carbon don't join as well. Steel is usually used in the normalized condition. Normalizing increases strength a little and involves making the steel uniform by heating and allowing diffusion. Let's start by taking a look at a pile of numbers for aluminum and steel: ALUMINUM Alloy Tensile Proof Elongation Designation Strength (psi) Strength (psi) (%) 6061-0 18000 8000 25 6061-T6 45000 40000 12 7005-T6 51000 42000 13 7050-T6 83000 73000 11 7075-T6 83000 73000 11 STEEL Alloy Tensile Yield Elongation Designation Strength (psi) Strength (psi) (%) 4130 annealed 81250 52250 28 normalized 97000 63250 25 high T temper 118000 102000 22 low T temper 236000 212000 10 There is no photo.... thanks for playing - ride on

[@crezzwell]

Excellent video, but the only bit I understand is the difference between chromoly and Hi tensile steel. I don't undeerstand any of the other stuff i.e 1 piece or 3 piece crank, sealed mid bb, cassette hub, single walled rims, double walled rims, headtubes etc etc???? I've subscribed and given the thumbs up, but don't understand shit!!

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+crezzwell Thank you for watching! That's awesome.. We are in the process of making more videos to explain these things in detail.. Hopefully really soon we will have a lot more info videos.

[@nadimselesnick886]

Is a Sunday blueprint a good starter bike? Thanks

[@trapulizer]

Nadim Selesnick Yes

[@bodiefisher1918]

Nadim Selesnick perfect starter

[@gagetlapa5624]

What about the We the people curse I could get it on sale for 325 on Dans Comp (Also is that a real website) Please respond because I might buy it!

[@thecrazymanfromireland]

Fantastic video thanks

[@martinlackey2816]

I'm getting one of them for.ur chrismas

[@joshwilliams2636]

This might be a little late but is the Benny 3 by fitbikeco a good high bike or what's better for around the same price thanks and love this channel bro

[@joshwilliams2636]

Sorry I ment the Benny sig

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Josh Williams Thanks man I really appreciate it. I'm just finishing my shift at work. I will reply to your answer really soon! Really appreciate the good words!

[@joshwilliams2636]

Idk if your forgot or what but thanks

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Josh Williams I did. I'm sory. I'm all about answering everyone's questions. the comment section started blowing up yesterday after I told you I would get back to you.

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Josh Williams The Fit Benny Sig is a top model bike. Has all the new style parts on it and is about the closest thing you can get to a custom build bike. once I get home to my tablet I will see what other bikes are worth it in that price range..

[@danmobileacc]

48spline 2pc or a 3pc with the bigger splines?

[@passerby1553]

which one is better without any upgrades? the subrosa tiro 2016 or the United Martinez expert 2016 ?

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Connor Helbing The 2016 United Martinez Expert is a lot better than the 2016 Tiro XL. The United Martinez comes with a full chromoly frame so hands down that bike is better than the Hi-tensile Tiro.

[@passerby1553]

+The BNC (Bmx News Channel) how much do they usually run for used?

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Connor Helbing Used bikes come is a very wide range of prices. Depends on the condition mostly. A clean bike with no scratches can run a little off of new but a heavily used and grinded bike can run for $50 no matter how expensive it originally was. All most new I would guess a few hundred, heavily used you could get one for $100 or 2.

[@passerby1553]

+The BNC (Bmx News Channel) ok i have a subrosa tiro should i get the frame for it(upgrade it) or should i get the other bike with no upgrades and it would cost used 250?

[@passerby1553]

+Connor Helbing other bike aka martinez expert

[@chees7891]

i have full cr-mo and 1 piece crank

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

Keep riding and building!

[@edfog6301]

Is a sunday scout a good bike?

[@BMXNEWSCHANNEL]

+Edward Fogaty It's a pretty good bike to start with but the deal with the price is a hard choice. You can choose the Sunday Scout which is a well made bike or save up just a tiny bit more and get a full Chromoly Kink Whip.
