------------------------------------------- About the Brands ---------------------------------------------------------
Let’s face it, most of 2020 has been no fun. But a huge perk was that the 2021 BMX bikes have all been released. After reviewing all of these bikes, I decided that I’d make a quick video telling you which brands are the best and why. These brands are judged based on their quality and variety.
6. FIT
It seems like since 2018 the complete bikes have been coming out with lower and lower quality options. This eliminates the option of buying a bike that will really last for you, ultimately giving the sport a bad name.
Pros
- Discipline-specific options
- Most under $500
- Good customer service
- can be easily upgraded with other parts
Cons
- No “high-level” options
- A little overpriced for the quality included
- Single-wall rims on most bikes
5. FLY
I post pictures of Fly’s bikes on Pinterest, and every time they blow up. Complete fly bikes look absolutely beautiful. But they come with a price. Like I mentioned before, these bikes are almost all high-end.
Pros
- High-quality options
- Bikes for very skilled riders
- One of the few brands with a high-end dirt option
- Clean look
- parts are easily upgraded
Cons
- Good options are expensive
- Bikes are a little overpriced
- Only one beginner option
- Hard to find in stock
4. SUNDAY
After reviewing the 2021 Sunday EX, I quickly fell in love. It comes in two options (Erik Elstran or Julian Arteaga). By splitting it up like this, they made an option that will work for aspiring freecoaster riders or old school cassette riders. Each bike has some different size and quality options making Sunday a good brand to shop when looking at buying a BMX bike.
Pros
- Park options for aspiring park riders
- Affordable beginner options
- Pro-level options
- Good customer service
- Trusted brand
- Lots of options
Cons
- Some bikes seem a little overpriced
- Sold out fast!
3. WETHEPEOPLE
So many options. That’s all I can say. They have a 12″ strider bike, all the way up to a 27″ contraption that looks like it’d be kind of fun to cruise around on. One of the most popular bikes is the 2021 Battleship. Decked out with all kinds of strong aftermarket parts, pegs, hub guards, and more.
Pros
- Countless options
- Good after-market parts on most bikes
- Good colors
- Street and park options
Cons
- Expensive
- No dirt specific option
- Too many choices might be overwhelming
2. CULT
Cult is so high up on this list because of one superstar complete bike that BMX enthusiasts go crazy about every year. The Cult Devotion provides a really good mid-level bike with everything you need to progress and keep progressing. Not at that level yet? Don’t worry. They have complete beginner bikes for around $300.
Pros
- Good prices
- Good quality
- Trusted brand
Cons
- Limited colors
- No “pro-level” bikes
- Sold out all the time
1. KINK
Kink adds in quality to their already cheap bikes with mission parts. Mission provides after-market parts at a really low price. I have personally run mission parts and ran into zero issues. With that being said, mission is a lower quality brand.
Any bike that adds aftermarket parts is automatically better than competitors. Low priced bikes + aftermarket parts = big win. Keep that in mind. A good example of that is the 2021 Kink Switch, which is my favorite 2021 complete bike.
Pros
- Great quality to price ratio
- Lots of size options
- Lots of color options
- Aftermarket parts
- great brand
Cons
- Sold out
- No discipline specific bikes
