BMX BIKE
If you don't like to ride on streets and sidewalks, but love to
have bike races on dirt roads, do lots of tricks, and try some
stunts, then a BMX bike is the perfect bike for you. A BMX bike
looks similar to a motorcycle, but BMX bikes are made for racing,
stunts and tricks; therefore, they do not have as many parts and
they are very light.
Frame: The frame on the BMX bike is like a
triangle. They have extra pieces to connect the tubes together so
the bike can take heavier hits.
Gears: These bikes have only one fixed gear,
so the bike is even lighter.
Tires: This type of bike has tires with very
good traction so they can turn better.
Brakes: It also has three different kinds of
brakes: a rear wheel brake, front wheel, and coaster brakes.
Wheels: The classic dirt bike has tiny
twenty-inch wheels.
This makes the bike astonishingly lightweight.
Pedals: The pedals on a BMX racing bike are
made of an alloy, a mixture of metals, so they will be very light.
Handle bars: It has high braced handlebars
that slant to the back
