There have written in my heart to this article for some time. This article was written to serve wherever the parents when shopping for your boy or girl was the first BMX bike!
For over 7 years I have worked my bike shop by my parents' in Mesa, Arizona, Donnie's Bicycle Shop, and this excites me no end that can share some important information with you!
First, as we talk about BMX and where they should or should not buy your son or daughter's first bike. You can not gowrong with Haro. HARO BMX has been so long and are always new and innovative projects. Diamondback is also reliable, and again the company is rock solid. Red Line BMX is also highly recommended.
Mongoose BMX is my line of choice when he bought a real bike shop, what they know. Mongoose BMX because it is that every link to queue for years, and make the best bike! But your going to consult with thereal owner of the local bike shop, because you do not want Wal-Mart or other store to buy. In addition, you should contact Mongoose and request a catalog only BMX race bike.
My first BMX bike was a bike called the JAG BMX Mongoose, and the bike has given me good service for many years. If you can get ahold of one, is definitely worth it. My first bike was a frame-cream bright orange, with white MotoMag. I recommend MotoMag. But be careful not MotoMag imitations, and there are a lotthem. What can be said that MotoMag.
A word about the abuse! Today BMX bikes are uncomfortable with some of the handles for the hands of children! Ask the owner of the bike shop to show the range of handles available, and for me, a style of foam is the best, or a very soft rubber gel is OK. I've always loved the grip foam for jumping, because they absorb the shock of the fall!
Watch out for the line GT Dyno. The framework for most of them are not as solid and if you do not believe me, goYour neighborhood junk shop, and you'll see a ton GT Dyno. I personally would not buy my son or daughter of a GT bike, unless one of their top line models, it was. I also had a problem with their air upon landing, when the terrible Mongoose BMX respect, my father bought for me at the local bike shop in Mesa.
Buy your child's bicycle from a bike shop to normal. Do not buy from Wal-Mart, Target, Costco and Sam's Club These wheels carry the names of Schwinn, Mongoose, and morebut allow me to ensure that they are not the real McCoy!
That is, also watch out for the seller of high-pressure bike. Believe it or not, they are out there! If you have a good product, because they have the sales pressure?
Back to the brand. If you are a bicycle Schwinn, Mongoose, or other family members once, dealing directly with the company's reputation or a bike shop to buy in the region. You will not find all the bikes BMX Wal-Mart in the local bike shop!
Now, as forHardware! If you're planning your son or daughter has a bike, be sure to invest in ultra-light aluminum wheels or chrome moly. So many bicycles are sold at low cost with the wheels and cranks. You pay more to reach 100-200 dollars for your child the best components. They are longer and your child will have one of the best and baddest BMX bike on the block!
That is, investment in three-piece aluminum cranks or a piece of aluminum, titanium or chromiumany other spacecraft materials that have! Do not opt-out for regular steel cranks. Get a bike that has a life, or at least a 20 year warranty on the frame.
If you want to buy a vintage BMX bike on e-bay or local auction to invest in 1984 Schwinn Sting. The bike is absolutely bone hurt people. Any recent version of the Schwinn Sting should be purchased.
Ok, we are talking about rims. Wheels need to be light. Many BMX wheels are heavy bulky. Wheels shouldbe of light metal. Do you want to ask for sealed hubs require no maintenance, almost always, and they do the best BMX everywhere.
Trust your child. If they love the bike is the bike for them. But let them know you love them enough to upgrade the wheels, tires and brakes required!
BMX also should have the best brakes mid-range. Return alloy brake or high dollar. This is the safety of your child, please! YouTo find out how much cheaper brakes on BMX bikes? You do not know, believe me. I've broken over the years!
If the bike is ok for the standard hub, breaking his right leg as well, and hand brakes, to get twice the stopping power! Even in Mesa, Arizona, I can not count all the times I fishtailed with my BMX bike with this feature! You may not get that on some of the high-end bikes, but many of you are yet! Ask for both if they have it, theCoaster-style brakes with handbrake!
Investing in a mid-range helmet, which is ANSI certified and marked by them. Get gloves that are excellent too. Everyone should goosekneck BMX handlebar pads and the top frame, at least, let your child on the bike without them.
welded structures that welds should be pretty thick, you should eat them. Do not buy any bike with nasty looking welds. Also be careful on that bike cheapnice welds, but the bass modules.
I always like to buy my BMX bike with similar features! If hubs, cranks, brakes, etc. are all Shimano, that's a good thing. The bike has Shimano. I would draw the BMX bike, the handlebars are easy to obtain, but heavy cranks, hubs, and are made from 10 different companies!
Finally, remember that there are only a couple of important things. Weight. Get lighter wheels, hubs, and high quality components. It isOrder a heavier structure, but not on wheels, tires, brakes, or especially Jeopardy! Buy a Haro, Diamond Back, Red Line, or a Mongoose bike shop, and you're happy! Do not buy from local shops, never! Buy direct from your local BMX bike shop who knows!
Finally, have fun jumping in and! If you can not jump the bike not to buy. The frames should be cleared by the jump! And remember, above all, the BMX bike to be a part of the life of your son or daughterfor at least 5-7 years, so go ahead, spend a few hundred more for better components. And remember, make a ramp, fly, hold the bar, kick out the rear wheel, and just hang up, feeling nothing but air and rises above the earth on a BMX bike is something that your child does not never forget and pass on from generation to generation.
