Product Description
Mankind are fully dedicated to ensuring riders of any age or height range have a BMX bike dedicated to them.
The NXS 18" is built for riders anywhere between 3' 4" to 4' 6" and combines pro-level looks with great specs, so it's a smaller size comfortable for younger riders without sacrificing the look of a full size BMX.
Despite it's smaller size it still has everything you'd expect from a modern BMX, a sealed integrated headset, sealed Mid BB and a fully sealed cassette hub.

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!
