What size bmx wheel and frame do i need?
I am 5ft 7 and im wondering what size BMX i should get, all i really need to know is the frame size and wheel size, i dont really mind about the weight i just want a robust BMX tht looks good and is easy to ride, any suggestions? thanks
when it comes to BMX bikes the size is judged by the top tube length, if your 5’7” I’d suggest a 20.5 toptube(the most common size) . and all BMX bikes use 20” wheels, you can get a 24” wheel specific “BMX” bike , they are called cruisers but in my opinion the 24” wheel isn’t as strong as the 20” wheel for riding
as for a suggestion of a good looking bike try checking out the Eastern Bike line up, they make something for everyone in about every price range

You have not indicated what kind of BMX discipline that you are interested in. If it is racing, go for the FBM Bitchin Camaro. It is a good race bike and one with a 21″ top-tube should serve you well. As for the other disciplines like flatland, park or dirt, there are heap of companies that make good bikes, almost too many to name.
As for wheel-sizes, 20-inch wheels are great but 24″ wheels (aka cruisers) are more stable. I personally have a Supercross Devo cruiser and it rocks!
