    Finding the right BMX bike is hard. Currently there are so many options for new bmx riders. Some are scams and some are great value. I took 16 BMX bikes that cost between $500 and $600 and put them into a tournament-style bracket. I compare all these BMX bikes with each other to find one true winner. The winner here is the bike that is the best value and best utility.

    I just ordered the Division from DC last night shipped for under $400. The stats on paper along with this recommendation and the discount made the decision easy.

    Another slick presentation, Doug! Division comes under the Colony brand and shouldn't be used in the same sentence as Mafia Bikes. Pretty big fan of the Fortiz. Rode a couple of them at my local skatepark. I could argue it's the perfect beginner to intermediate bike if you can't find a Kink Whip or Colony Premise cheaper here. Props to the Switch for coming out on top. Rode one of those as well and was impressed overall with it. Loved how little slack there was to the freecoaster, too!

    I ended up getting the 2022 cult devotion thanks to some help from your videos in black which by the way is not boring being all black everything it is very clean looking. Right now mine weighs exactly 27.6 pounds with both stock pegs cult hub gaurds all around for about 25 dollars and odyssey evo 2 brakes added as the only non stock part as a fellow giant rider at 6'6" and 180 pounds returning to the sport after about 15 years yet still being a mid to high level rider it was the perfect fit for me I can't even really tell that the rear dropout is so much larger than most other than the stability because of my size

    • @hotdang8885
      @hotdang8885 Рік тому +1

    • @erickuster9128
      @erickuster9128 Рік тому +1

      @@hotdang8885 I personally wouldn't go any smaller than 21 for top tube if your my size you'd be surprised what a 1/4 or a 1/2 inch will do any smaller and I feel cramped up as for the dropout it would depend on how you are trying to ride I like it longer it is less responsive but it allows you to move your weight around more because no matter the size of bike your center of gravity is going to be higher so as you move around it moves farther like a mannuel since your higher when you shift your weight back it goes farther back if that makes any sense as for the other stuff pretty standard works 9 inch rise longer cranks a pedal with a nice platform for bigger feet you can always adjust that stuff later by swapping parts like a different gooseneck can change where your bars ride and so forth but a frame swap can be pricey feel comfortable first get comfortable by riding and adjust as you progress hope that helps you can always email dougster as well with questions ride well mah dood

    Crap, devotion panza, (purple one with yellow rims) or kink whip xl, or kink switch? Are they all the same specs?
    Just checked bc i know there was a reason i didn't want the switch and it's bc on websites like dans comp, it says single wall rims.

    • @Dougsterbob
      @Dougsterbob  4 місяці тому +1

      Nah the switch is double wall!! Switch has a little bit of a smaller toptube, and it’s more responsive then both bikes. The devotion and switch both have pegs, whip does not. All 3 are similar quality

    • @AaronMorgan666
      @AaronMorgan666 4 місяці тому

      @Dougsterbob would the year matter maybe? And if I wasn't worried about cost between the 3, which one would you get? I mean there only an $80 difference between the 3. Whip xl, switch, devotion. Literally only want the devotion bc of the color. Was dead set on the whip xl for a few years.

    Complete bikes have gone backwards in the last ten years. Aheadsets have returned to entry level options, and hi-tensile tubing has crept back into the mid-range.
