Complete BMX Wheels

Understanding BMX Wheels

The wheels are fundamental to the movement of your BMX, significantly affecting your ride and playing a vital role whether executing tricks or racing to victory. Freestyle BMX wheels are crafted to be robust and enduring to handle the rigours of freestyle activities. Conversely, race BMX wheels are engineered to be as light as possible, enabling you to swiftly navigate the track.

Components of a BMX Wheel

When purchasing a new wheel, it is important to consider various elements such as the hub, spokes, rims, and axles. You have the option to acquire each component individually and assemble them if you enjoy the challenge. Alternatively, you can opt for a pre-built wheel set, which is generally the standard and convenient choice.

Choosing the Correct Size BMX Wheels

Opt for wheels that provide the most enjoyable and comfortable riding experience. The typical size for both freestyle and racing disciplines is a 20-inch diameter, though depending on the discipline, other sizes are available. Children's models, for instance, can start from as small as 14 inches. Naturally, when acquiring wheels, ensure that they are compatible with your frame and fit your tyres comfortably.
