Description

The ION BMX Ti18 defines ultra-lightweight freestyle excellence. Titanium construction spans the ION BMX Ti18 frame, IONBMX Ti18 forks, IONBMX Ti bars, ION BMX Ti stem bolt, IONBMX Titanium hub bolts, and Spectre V2 Titanium spokes working seamlessly with Carbon C18 rims to achieve exceptional rigidity at minimal weight. This 18" platform delivers what few competitors accomplish: genuine mass reduction paired with structural integrity. Paired with Colony's Rose Gold limited edition hubs, stem, sprocket, post and headset, it's purpose-built for elite riders demanding the lightest, most responsive freestyle machine on the market.

Features

  • Titanium frame, forks and bars. The Ti18 frame, 26mm offset forks and 8" bars are all titanium, so the whole bike loses weight without losing rigidity.
  • Carbon C18 rims, titanium spokes. ION C18 carbon rims laced 36H with Spectre V2 titanium spokes and DT aluminium nipples: stiff wheels at very little weight.
  • 7.28kg complete. Genuine mass reduction without giving up structural integrity, right down to the ION titanium hub and stem bolts.
  • Colony Rose Gold limited parts. Wasp Lite hubs with a 9T aluminium driver, a Variant 35mm stem, CC 25T sprocket, Pivotal post and tall integrated headset.
  • 18" platform, no brakes. An 18" top tube, 11.6" chainstay and 75° head angle, built for riders chasing the most responsive freestyle setup.

Assembly information

Your bike ships mostly assembled in the box. Finishing it takes most people 10 to 20 minutes with basic tools, and the video above walks through every step.

  • Fit the handlebars and line them up with the front wheel
  • Fit the front wheel, pedals and seat post
  • Check the brakes and tyre pressure before the first ride

Tools: Allen key set and a 15mm, 17mm or 19mm spanner for the pedals and axle nuts (bikes can vary between these three sizes). A socket is needed if installing pegs.

Rather have it done? Ask us about extra assembly before you order, or any local bike shop can finish the build for a small fee.

18 inch BMX sizing

An 18 inch bike suits a rider of about 122 to 147cm, usually 7 to 11 years old, on an 18 to 18.5 inch top tube. It is the last step before a full size 20 inch.

160cm and up22"21 to 22.25"
160cm and up24"21.75 to 22"
160cm and up26"22 to 23"

Sizes overlap on purpose, so personal preference comes into it. If your rider is near 147cm and still growing, look at a 20 inch instead: it is the size they will keep riding.

How to measure

Stand your rider against a wall in the shoes they ride in, heels flat, and mark the top of their head. Measure from the floor to the mark.

  • Between an 18 and a 20? Take the 20. It is the size they will keep riding, and an 18 gets outgrown quickly.
  • They should be able to stand over the top tube with both feet flat on the ground.
