In light of all the Top 10 BMX race bike list we’ve been seeing over the years we decided to make our own for 2020. This list will be for the top 10 BMX racing complete bikes. These bikes are the best, out the box, ready to race BMX bikes in the game. All the frames solid, pro level quality with parts ranging from mid to high end. We love that some of these bikes are now coming with disk brakes.
Now just because these bikes are meant to be for racing, keep in mind that you can do more than just race on them. You can race them, ride them at the trails, they can take a little street style abuse and you can even just cruise around town on them 😉 . Of course you’ll have to change the seat post to cruise around on these bikes because they all have short seat post for racing.
This list is geared towards The high end BMX complete option. Stay tuned for our future list which will feature more affordable BMX Race completes. So lets get into the list.
