There are three basic steps in the bike-sizing process:
1] Measure your dimensions accurately and carefully
2] Use the table below to figure out which size will fit you best
3] Once your bike has arrived use our setup guide to adjust the components to fit you, and you're ready to ride!
Our BMX sizing guide takes into consideration your height and age to give you two points of reference to help choose the right bike for you.
All measurements are best taken in your bare feet and with the help of someone else.
Stand upright against a wall with your legs together and shoulders back.
Place a pencil on the top of your head and mark the wall, measure to the mark and take a note of your height in feet and inches.
To measure your inside leg, stand barefoot and measure from the floor, up the inside of your leg.
