They have a few spindle sizes I think two of them can work for BMX.

I was a lifelong 180 rider myself but those 175’s changed my life.

(I’m 6’4″) This time around I dropped down to 175’s and love the switch. Especially with 30mm spindles and stiff crank arms I’m getting plenty of torque out of the gate and getting into a spin faster. I’m a spinner, not a masher. I also have a tendency to get on the gas early coming out of turns and that extra 1/4″ actually makes a difference with confidence not catching a pedal.

When they 1st came out I thought they were gonna cater to all disciplines but they STILL have not made spindles for a BMX frame (without using crazy amounts of washers) I hope I’m wrong about this and they about to unveil the goods. Hahahaa. Man I wish I went to this show.
