Is this a real BMX bike? Is it good for racing?

NO...my 13 yr od 5 foot 4 and 129 pound son broke the blue pedals in 3 weeks at the local bmx course. It is an entry level bike for an 8 to 10 yr old in my opinion.

Morning,Thanks for the inquiry! Sorry for the confusion but that is an A to B bike for the rider who wants to get from point A to point B while maintaining the BMX feel, we wouldn't recommend it for racing. Have a great day!

BMX refers to the style. It's a dirt bike with knobby tires. Unlike some bikes that have smooth street tires.As far as I can tell, the handlebars are not any further away, but they are adjustable, as is the seat height.It's a good, tough little bike. If you have a kid that you think is going to ride the heck out of their bike, this is the bike. We're still happy with ours...

I just bought mine before Christmas. So, I have just a few days to ride it. But, I do like what I have seen so far. This being my second year to compete in triathlon, I think this is going to be a good bike for me for this year. Compared to my first triathlon bike, it's a lot lighter in weight and handles well! I hope this helps your decision.

Probably not cause it has the training wheels on it. Overall it's not a good bike. This is my 2nd one. The first one fell apart in a few months and my son hardly rode it. So I got a replacement from the maker. This one is pretty much falling apart too. It's a good concept but not durable.

I would suggest staying with this bike. I've got it and it has decent parts for the price. You're going to want to upgrade saddle and tires on any bike in this price range. The frame on this bike is quite good, nice clean welds, good dropouts.

Pratik, this is NOT a racing bike, that's for sure and I don't think I would take it off road. Best weight I can give you--and this is based on my bathroom scale (bike+me-me)= approximately 25/26 lbs. I added a padded seat that added a 1/2 lb or so. I only ride for fun and exercise. Hope this helps.One thing of note. My kickstand recently broke . The warranty support people are amazing. A new one was here immediately.

I wont use this for an event unless you upgrade the brake and wheels. At that point it would have been better to buy a real road bike. It would be better to buy something on clearance rather than mess with this. You will end up apent more.

No. It's really not that bad if you're patient and take your time to assemble the bike. The instructions aren't the greatest, but there manageable. I've been riding some pretty aggressive trails and couldn't be happier with my purchase as a rookie mountain biker.

No, the suspension is not like that of a gas powered dirt bike. If you are looking to use it on a track, buy a 50cc dirt bike. A used one won't cost that much more.

we use ours for road bikes but it is super sturdy I am sure it would hold BMX with no problem

It has a flip-flop hub meaning you can turn the back wheel around to make it fixed gear(continous pedal motion) or free-wheel(like a normal bmx bike)

I am very happy with the bike. I would buy it again. A friend also bought one and loves it. It gets comments and questions when i take it out - it's a good looking bike and comfortable to ride. i have the three speed which is adequate for in town riding and trail riding in this area.

Hi, This cycle won't stack up against the pro bike you're used to 100%. For the price, it's just not possible. BUT, with that being said, I personally haven't found a pro bike that it doesn't stack up to based on price and quality. I've had mine for a while now. Not only was set up easy (roughly 45 mins as the previous user stated) but it has been working exceptionally well since I bought it. You are most likely used to a bit more in terms of bells and whistles, but this bike cuts that out (lowering cost) while maintaining amazing quality. I would sincerely recommend this bike to anyone; it has been that great of an experience having one. Hope this helps!

My son runs 250-260 and rides the bike hard - should be fine - he loves the bike. He rides motocross and does a lot of stunts on the bike just fine.

Yes it is. My 12 yr old is about ur size and rides it all the time and can do many tricks on it!!! It's great for the price. Good luck

No, not really.. I still like the bike but honestly it isn't comfortable.. Though I really don't think you will find one that is really comfortable.
