What does BMX stand for?
BMX stands for "Bicycle Moto Cross" and refers to a sport that involves performing tricks and jumps on a course of waves, ramps and obstacles using specially built bicycles. The origins of the sport of BMX date back to the 1960s, when young cyclists in California began using their bikes to perform stunts similar to their motorcycle motocross role models on remote terrain. Since the 1970s, BMX has developed into an independent and internationally widespread sport, practiced in various disciplines such as freestyle, racing, flatland or park.
BMX 20 inch - what age?
It is difficult to set a specific age for a particular top tube length on a BMX bike, as this also depends on the child's height and individual abilities. Some kids can handle a shorter top tube length, while others may need a longer top tube length.
However, there are some rough guidelines that can be used as a starting point:
For younger children, ages 6-9, a top tube length of 16-18 inches may be appropriate. Thus, an 18 inch BMX is more recommended here.
- For children ages 9-12, a top tube length of 18-19 inches or 19-20.5 inches may be suitable.
- For older kids and teens ages 12-16, a top tube length of 20-21 inches or longer may be suitable.
- For teenagers and adults 16 years and older with a height of 1.50m, the standard top tube length of 20.6 inches is recommended.
- For tall adults 6 feet or taller, top tube lengths of 21 inches or longer are recommended.
However, these guidelines are only a rough guide and it is important that the BMX bike is customized to the child's individual needs and abilities. It is also important that the child can ride the bike safely and feel comfortable on the bike. If the child can't handle a certain top tube length, they can try a smaller or larger top tube length until they find the right fit.
What are small BMX 20 inch bikes?
Small 20 inch BMX bikes are a good option for younger kids who are just starting to get interested in BMX or who don't feel confident enough on a larger bike yet.
These bikes tend to be lighter and easier to handle than larger BMX bikes and provide younger kids with the opportunity to learn basic skills like balance and coordination. Small 20 inch BMX bikes are also a good option for kids who want to be active in the freestyle discipline of BMX, as they are easier to move around and perform tricks on.
However, it is important to make sure that the BMX bike fits the child and that they are able to ride the bike safely. The child should be able to touch the ground with their feet and feel comfortable on the bike. It is also important that the child always wears protective gear such as helmets, elbow pads and knee pads to prevent injury.
Small 20 inch BMX bikes are usually characterized by a top tube length that is smaller than 20 inches. For example, the KHE Cosmic with a top tube length of 19.5 inches, which is ideal for riders with a height of 1.40 - 1.70m.
