What BMX size do I need?

Question

I am starting BMX RACING so I am buying a BMX RACE bike.

I am 5ft 11 nearly 6ft and soon will be I reckon so I of coruse need a bigger BMX to race on (small ones just dont work when racing on).

Does anyone have any charts or sites that produce graphs of the tt (top tube) with the ideal rider height?

(for example: 20.5tt = 5ft 4 to 5ft 9 tall)

ta!

Answer 1

we are about match, the 20 longest top tube still makes me feel cramped and if I push the bars forward I get squirly on landings...  test the 24 cruisers... yeah most riders are probably right, you wont bust crazy air - but you what? you will be blazing for all around endurance and carving like a mad man...  Shoot, it really is in the gearing so have fun with it!!!

I have a K-♠ , you flip the card... Oh yeah, its an "Ace"...

Answer 2

best thing to do is goto a shop and talk to them. but you should ride faster standing up then sitting down. and you can always change the seat height
