Product Description
Whether your little rider is making the switch over from a balance bike or hopping straight to pedals, the Misfit 12 has been scaled down in all the right ways to feel as natural as possible.
The Fit Misfit is built with chromoly top, down and steerer tubes to keep the frame strong without adding excessive weight while hi-ten forks and bars round off this incredibly durable complete.
It's been fine tuned for short legs with custom 23/9 gearing and 75mm 3-piece cranks, a sealed cassette rear hub makes learning tricks and jumps easier and safer than with a coaster brake.
Seat height angle on these little bikes is especially important since riders haven't necessarily learned to stand up and pedal yet. This being said, Fit have used a very flat padded seat, and a quick release seat clamp with longer seat post to help get the little ones dialed easily.

BMX BIKE SIZE GUIDE
BMX bikes are measured in two ways: the size of the wheel (20” is the standard BMX wheel size), and the length of the frame which is gauged by the top tube measurement. We have also simplified for you into XS, Small, Medium, etc.Here is a guide to what size you should be looking for - note that there is some overlap in sizes, as personal preference also comes into the equation!
