The 2023 Kink Whip XL is a good bmx bike based on value. The XL version has a 21" toptube and 9.25" bars. Aside from that, everything is the exact same as the normal Kink Whip.
Kink Whip XL One of our most popular models, the Whip, is also available in an XL 21β toptube size. This beast is constructed using full 100% 4130 chromoly throughout the entire frame, fork and handlebar set. Complimenting this strong, durable structure are sealed bearings everywhere; headset, bottom bracket, and both front and rear hubs. Both wheels are laced up with Mission Mylar rims, giving this bike double wall rims front and rear. Topping off all the great functionality, the Whip XL comes in a Matte Sedona Red colorway.

imaging not being in the bmx nerd discord π€‘
Just turned 50 a few weeks ago. I checked this bike out today at the local BMX shop in El Salvador. I'm 5'11, weigh 220. I'll be purchasing this bike this week since I've been wanting to get back into riding bikes like i used to in the late 80s. I'm excited to get back into the sport.
Right off the bat, I'll be changing the sprocket, tires, chain, and eventually the cranks, pedals. I'm looking forward to customizing the bike.
Thanks for the great reviews Doug. This bike in El Salvador cost $765. Everything is more expensive here.
Just Picked up a XL today and being 6' this bike F***s! Review is OP!
How you like it so far
I ride the BSD Raider frame in 21.6 and i believe they offer it in 21.8 also. I'm 6'1", Frame size is mostly riding style and preference but there are a lot of options. Bsd safari and raider are all tall rider friendly with huge variety of top tube lengths.
Best video yet bro !!
Great video. Why is the 21β tt only for 6β or taller and how come on many websites it says shorter riders can ride a 21β tt?
What chain and sprocket would u recommend for 200lb+ riders
If you were 5β11β would you recommend getting the Whip XL or just the regular 20.5β TT?
Or neither and find a 20.75β TT bike? Thanks!!
if you're 5' 11", the 21" option will fit you good!!
Thank you for the speedy reply good sir
@@Dougsterbob how about at 5β10 at 200lbs. 20.5 or 21β?
β@@mmedia5727 What did you go with? I'm around that size and can't decide.
I give the 22 Kink Whip XL an 8.25 for MTB trails. At least flow trails. prob a 9 if you upgrade the rims, tires, and pedals, and switch to a spline drive front sprocket.
What is your opinion on the rant twin peaks forks
just ordered this one, definitely feel like it's a good fit (but I'm also an idiot(?) and ordered a 2022 Stolen Sinner FC)
I'm 5.8, is it to long for me?
Im 6' 4" and 300lbs trying to avoid going over $500. Is it possible?
i donβt this so man
Iβm 5β11β and weigh 225lb
this is the perfect size.
Hay man has anything changed with the new 2025
S&M tall boyβ¦22 inch TT and S&M ATF XL FRAME also 22 TT
Iβm 225 pounds π’is it kool for me
Yes, but typically if you weigh over 200 pounds the components that come with this bike since theyβre not aftermarket wonβt last a really long time
@@Dougsterbob so what bike do u recommend me the 2023 or the 2022 and why?
Just buiit full aftermarket from ground up
Do tall order
Ew why orange? lol
I know I am probably going to get a different bike because of it
Why not orange. I like the color.
the HARO midway is way beter
You mean the midcity ?
No the midway is beter at a lower price
