BMX Wheel Sizing and Tire Fitting

Question

I am trying to build my own BMX bike and have never done this before. I am planning on using a FitBikeCo Lurch frame. If anyone knows what wheels and tires i should be using or a basic idea of how you figure out the height, number of spokes, and all that other data.

Answer 1

maxxis m-tread 2.10 in the front and animal ASM 1.95 in the back

front/back rim Alianation 440  or Alianation BlackSheep,  36spoke's formula/eastern hub's.

best setup u can have

(to vlad the guy that posted below me who says 48spoke's are better)

HAHHAHAHA 48SPOKES  = ****, BREAKS WAY TO EASY, the rim is WAYYY to tight... ive had 48spoke's befor and trust me, im back at 36...   48 spoke's is a no-no. trust me i work  in a bmx shop and ive been in the bmx industry farrr long enough to know what 48spoke's is.

it is waayy to tight and you feel every freaking little bump, it hurt's the wrist's after a while..

IT DOSENT REQUIRER LESS AIR lol... stupid idiot thats the tire that decide's the air pressur not the rim/spoke  ******.

^^'

as for tire pressur theres 2 type 1 is minimum 40 and max 65  and good tires are min 65 and max 110psi

the 2 tires i told u to buy on top (maxxis m-tread and animal ASM are both 65min 110max psi)  wich is good

but don't forget, more air the more you have speed(less pedaling, it ride's longer)  but you have less traction (it dosent grip)

and the less you have air the more u grip but you gonna have to pedal harder longer more times!

(thats why i bought a can of pressured bmx air so i put air befor i leave my house, at the skatepark or what ever i take air out and put it very low so i get more grip, and when i leave i blow up my tire tube with my can and i leave!

you can buy that can pretty much any bike store!
