anybody on here still ride bmx over 6ft,if so what sort of bike do you ride please thanks?
I'm only 5'11" but ride 2 an alu race bike and a cromo dj bike. Why do you ask?
That's an awfully big BMX
I'm 6'2" and I used to ride a bmx.
gw i used to ride them all the time,and just wonderd if people my height still ride them,without getting there kness balls banged of the stem ,ive not rode one since i was 14
If you're in the North West you can buy mine off me if you want, its got a 21.4" top tube so its perfect for tall folk
any photos ??
Ive got a few kicking about somewhere I think. If you send me an email I'll forward them on. Its a Fly Pantera.
I'd snap David's bike up quick he's probably desperate to buy grown up cycling accessories such as panniers and trouser clips
hi
im 6´3 used to ride a Pantera 21.4" , long with a lower bb, perfect for tall guys, get a toploader and a 9"+ bar or a s&m perfect 10..
i tried the deuce deuce 22" tt - really good for flyin..
now i ride a 24" wtp avenue cruiser..
GW, you're miles off the mark. Ive been doing a bit of reading, and Ive come to realise cycling just isnt cool anymore. I'm going to spend the money on some decent mods for my newly aquired S reg Honda Civic LSI (its got a vtec engine).
Whilst you're out riding a kids bike thats too small for you, I'll be out doing 35 second quarter miles and listening to N Dubz on my new JVC.

Oh the shame!
@op. I'm 6'3 and ride a bmx. 21" TT with 8.5 bars and lots of spacers.
I'm 6'1 and ride a huge Twenty Tzar, I think it's 21 1/2". I could do with some higher bars really as my Sunday ones are a bit on the low side. If I ride for more than a few hours then I do start to ache a bit but it's mostly OK.
My mate must be 6' 5“ He rides a quadangle.
I've a country bikes Park (21.7"), they're not cheep, but they are cheeper than they were and come in big sizes.
Odly I was actualy thinking of selling it to fund a grownup commuter!
I love riding my BMX but find my 20.5 TT too short (I'm 6'1"). Any recommendations for a cheapish frame with a longer TT?

Mine, £160 posted for the whole bike, the frames were 800euro new so a quality bit of kit, even if it doesn't have modern touches like removable bosses, mid bb's and gyro mounts.
i'm 6'1" ish (6'2" if i stop slouching)
i ride a 24" cruiser.
it's ace.
i think it's got a 22" top tube, it's seems about right.
I just plug away on a 20.5" and am just 6 foot (poss 5-11") but once I got used to it I now find it ok....manualling is now so easy compared to MTB. Just wish I had more time to play about on it.
