BMX Frame Geometry: Why It Matters
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июл 2024
- BMX frame geometry can seem rather complicated at first glance. With all the various sizes and angles listed, how do these changes in geometry affect your riding, and which frame is best for you? In this week's "Get Tech" video series, we break down topics such as toptube length, headtube angle, bottom bracket height, and everything in-between, to help you choose that perfect frame based on your riding style.

This is literally the best geometry explanation video Ive ever seen. + 10 points for that trey clip and the wallride 180 on the dumpster
Thanks Doug!
Thanks for the info, all my life I been riding the wrong geometry, which makes it hard to learn any trick, my life was a lie 😢
I finally understand seat tube angle. Best explanation I've seen.
Thank you. It's definitely confusing at first.
Love the cut away. Very informative information
That was pretty darn good
Awesome analysis! Thanks!👊🙏
I had no idea standover height and seat tube length were the same. I'm over here trying to figure out what to go off of comparing my complete bike to aftermarket frames because the standover height listed for it is including wheels and tires.
Thank you very much this video is great. Helped me out a ton to understand the geometry of a freestyle frame. I’m Looking to get a new setup so this video is what I needed for deep understanding. Thanks again!
Glad we could help!
You guys are killing it! Love your videos!
Thank you!
In regards to BB height, its the measurement from a (imaginary) direct line between front and rear axle centres, to middle of BB, plus 10 inches.
I use different geometry for different styles of riding. On dirt I like my bars low and my seat up high enough for some jumping clearance. With freestyle riding I like the bars high( because of the gyro) and the seat up high enough to be almost standing up without it for seat/,post grabs.
Nice vid, thank you all!!!
If only I would’ve seen this two days before I got mine
Great explanation. My thing with tall standovers is some pro's are raising the S.O. higher so they can raise their seatpost without looking like there isn't that much post showing. I get it, but those 9.5 and up standovers look like a road bike frame. They didn't want to look silly with a lot of seatpost but now have a goofy frame. To each their own I guess.
Haha good point. That is one of the advantages/disadvantages with a tall standover.
Great video!
Thanx for this info
Im 6.2-6.3, Do I have to switch to 21’ frame from 20.75’
Hey, want to change my wtp justice 2012 (20.25“) frame to a colony (21“) frame. Is the conversion even possible?
Nice video that helped alot and didnt realize youre from here and i watched this literally 3blocks from Lamasco Park!
Oh nice! Yeah if you ever see me around come say hey. And thanks for the kind words.
Will do! I gotta question, whats that black bike with the teal tires when you're talking about measuring the BB and im just getting back into riding from over 20 years but isnt that stem on upside-down?
@@jawnlaughlin5 It's either a Stolen or a DK stock bike frame. I don't remember off hand but it's my daughters that we've just swapped parts around on over the years. The stem is inverted because it was too tall for her. Easy way to lower the bars without messing with anything else.
Trey Turner my men ,such skillfull rider and such a nice dog
I like your videos.
The Always Funny clips automatically get this video a thumbs up.
The John Purse 4130 big bloc redline? What frame size it is?
Sorry we've never carried that model and I can't seem to find reliable information on it. - Mike
21” top tube. I still have mine
man, i need your help. i cant decide on what I wnt and/or where to find it. i know for sure I'm looking into titanium because I'm sick of my heavy bikes
Titanium is also heavy... Chromoly is your best choice
@@YoBoyZed dude titanium is half the weight you are joking right?
Didnt know vincentvega was a bmxer!
I went to 12.75 from 13.75 cs and I gotta say it made a whole a lot of a difference. Also I run 20.75 top tube from 20.5 but I still don't feel the difference. I'm 5'4 btw.
How do u like the shorter chainstay im thinking abt getting a 2 short
Only one you didn't cover was fork offsets.
This video was specifically frames, but coincidently we shot a video on fork offset last week so that will be coming soon! Good timing, haha.
