Choosing the right BMX frame size based on your height is absolutely critical for your riding experience, control, and performance. But it can be challenging to find the right information. Look no further! This video is your one-stop-shop to help you determine the best frame size for your height.
Watch as I clear up all the confusion about BMX frame sizes and explain how each one correlates to different rider heights. Whether you're under five feet or well over six feet, I have a frame size recommendation for you.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Your height is crucial in determining your BMX frame size.
✅ Riding a bike with a correctly-sized frame improves control and maneuverability.
✅ Customizing your bike's size according to your height will significantly enhance your riding experience.
✅ I've also included graphics and detailed discussions on my website (link in the description) to help you understand better.

Been stressing this question for the past couple days. This video just made it so simple and clear. Thank you sir I can’t wait to get back into BMX
I’m 5’7 and bought a 21” tt since I’m new to this hobby. I’m looking into downsizing my frame to a 20.75
I enjoy the 21” since I got used to it but I’m starting to get into more street and less skate park ramps so it feel a little harder to do stuff
Well I am 5'6 and I ride an 20 inch toptube for years now, and it is still rider preference whatever what toptube length they wanna ride
Me:2 bikes one twitchy one stable
My only question on size would have to be would it make sense to bump up a quarter inch top tube length if im building a trails and dirt specific bike or stay the same length top tube and run a larger fork offset and stem length to get that control? Otherwise your videos have been really helpful once I got back into riding. Appreciate any input people have.
im 6" and im getting a fly sierra in 21.4"tt. i ride mostly transition and im tall so i like having a bunch of room up front so i run my bars forward on my current 21" setup. it feels better but it makes my steering all wack. the sierra has a shorter back end than my current frame but a longer top tube, so it'll allow me to have almost the same wheelbase as my current setup but i can have more room up front without having my bars chicago (i keep kneeing my bars and stem on my 21" and it sucks) plus a shorter back end with a longer TT is always gonna feel better than a long back end with short TT when youre a tall guy. also having a longer frame makes me look less stupid on the bike when you're a tall dude because thats when you really start looking like you're on a kids bike
Dang. 21.4" seems super long for someone only 6 inches tall lol😂
I'm pretty sure the top tube length on my old 1986 GT pro world tour is 18.5" I think most of the bikes were around that too. Maybe a quarter inch more for the Haro etc. So there must be something more to this? Tall kids and pros were riding these bikes in the 80s/90s. Is there something more to the geometry? Is it just because they used laid back seat posts and angled the handlebars forward a bit to give them more length? I'm curious now because from your video they should have had at least a 20.25 to 20.5 to suit most riders.
What’s up Doug I’m 5’8” and currently on a cult devotion . I’m about to buy a new frame , I’m looking at the bsd grime . I’m having trouble deciding on 20.6 or 20.8 TT . Spending most my time at the skatepark and some street . Any thoughts would be very appreciated .
I'm 4.7 and I ride a 20.5, but I fell really good
I am 5"6 and have a 20.75 and i had a 20.5 feels hard to pop into a bunny hop, do i need a smaller frame?
For me 20.7-21 toptube is good for me im 5'7.
Im 5,3 and 15 and ride alot of street do you think the fit shortcut frame would be good in 20.25 in tt length?
Same height and age I want to get a 20,5. You think it will be too big(
Just under six foot, I ride 20.5
If I'm between 5'3" and 5'6", a 20.5" tt would still be easy to do tricks on?
20.5 would probably be perfect for you.
5,5 and I like 20.75 with a short end.
im 5 foot 10 and ride a 21.25 lol
dude if you aint already roasting quarters you should try a 21" and see if you like that
@@garygary6032 I aint bouta buy another frame, just build up a partymaster street dirt and that cost me more then enough. also consider myself more of a street guy
@@lolstein137 yeah that's fair. i'm not sure if the top tube length and the science behind it is different with dirt jumper frames. since dj's are bigger bikes than bmx i would recommend downsizing just a tad if you're riding street but you don't have to if you already got a new frame. you'll just get used to the longer TT so you should be fine
@@garygary6032 I got used to the longer frame quite quick, as riding a bike every day just get's you used to it fast
