We’re digging the simple but stylish look of the 2018 WeThePeople “Arcade” complete BMX street bike! The translucent blue/black colorway go really nice together. This edition of the Arcade comes in both a 20.5” and a longer 21” top tube. The bike also features the Salt (AM) sealed cassette hub, Tracer 2.35” tires, Fraction rims and Comp sprocket. What we found really interesting is this frame is 4130 chromo down tube and 1020 hi-ten tubing. So this is clearly an entry level street bike but we wonder how strong it really is or how much punishment it can really take…..and what is 1020 hi-ten? is it a stronger Hi-ten material? We’ll have to do some research on this.
