BMX

Understanding BMX

BMX, an abbreviation for bicycle motocross, represents a cycling discipline suitable for all ages and skill levels. Since its inception, the sport has grown globally, and BMX bikes are now seen worldwide. BMX isn't just for children and teenagers; it's an action sport that has transformed into a cultural lifestyle.

Origins of BMX Bikes

BMX emerged in California during the 1970s as a more cost-effective and accessible alternative to motocross. The sport swiftly gained traction throughout the United States and eventually spread across the world. While there's no single inventor of the BMX bike, individuals like Bob Haro and Scot Alexander Breithaupt were instrumental in evolving it into the sport we recognise today.

Personalise Your Setup

One of the fantastic aspects of BMX is the flexibility to alter and enhance your setup. Nearly every component of your bike can be personalised, and if you are particularly ambitious, you can construct an entirely new bike from the ground up. Just ensure you have the appropriate BMX tools before beginning.
