FRAME SIZE MEASUREMENT SHOWN ON 2:33 IS NOT OK, Measure from the center of the bottom bracket (crank axle) to the top of the seat tube JUNCTION , where the seat post enters, NOT TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SADDLE WHERE THE SADDLE IS FIXED.
Thanks! Good question, BMX is a bit of an odd one because unless you are very short, you will use the same wheel size for all sizes and only a slight difference in frame. Child or shorter than 4'6" has 18" 16" 14" 12" wheel sizes available depending on height ) and different frame sizes Most BMX will be a 20" wheel and 20-21" top tube, BMX bikes have frame sizes from XS to XL typically. Frame sizes here are referencing top tube length 4'6 - 5'1" -or 135cm - 155cm - (XS) frame 4'10" - 5'4" or 147cm - 162cm - 20.25" (XS - Small) frame 5'2" - 5'8" or 157cm - 173cm - 20" - 20.5" (Small - Medium) frame 5'6" - 6ft or 167cm - 183cm - 20.25" - 21" (Medium - Large) frame 6ft + 180cm + - 20.75" + (Large - XL) frame
