Most people disregard a BMX bike for commuting because they think it’s too small or because it’s a single speed. But if you set it up the right way which is simply to add a seat post extension and a good gear ratio, A BMX bike could actually be a great commuter. Especially the longer and lighter BMX racing bikes. They can be really awesome commuters.
After your commute, just put back on the low seat post and you’ll be back to shredding the streets and trails. In this video, I answer the question of can you really commute on a BMX bike by doing a nice long test ride to prove it can be done. It was a 12mile commute from Fresh Meadows Queens to Midtown Manhattan. I also did a little ranting in this one too lol!
