Description

The Gap XL is a versatile bike ready to handle more serious riding, sized up for taller riders with a 21" top tube. It brings 4130 chromoly steel tubing into areas of the frame, fork and handlebars to improve overall strength and longevity.

Upgrades like the Stealth seat system offer more adjustability and modern compatibility, and the sealed mid bottom bracket and sealed integrated headset keep things running smoothly. Its moderate to modern geometry is great for all types of riding.

Features

  • Sized up for taller riders. A 21" top tube with 13.25" chainstays and a 9" standover gives taller riders room without changing the handling.
  • Chromoly through the key tubes. 4130 in the head tube, top tube and down tube, plus the fork steerer and the bars, for strength where it counts.
  • Stealth seat system. The Kink Plymouth/Bomber seat and Mission Stealth post give you more adjustability and modern compatibility.
  • Kink Ridge 3-piece cranks. Tubular chromoly, 170mm, 8 spline: built for riders starting to put the bike through real punishment.
  • Sealed mid BB and integrated headset. Less maintenance and a smoother feel through the cranks and the front end, session after session.

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.

20 inch BMX sizing

A 20 inch bike is the standard adult BMX and suits riders from about 147cm up. At this wheel size the top tube is what changes the fit, so pick that by height.

Rider heightWheel sizeTop tube
60 to 91cm12"12 to 12.5"
81 to 106cm14"14 to 14.5"
96 to 122cm16"16 to 16.5"
122 to 147cm18"18 to 18.5"
147 to 157cm20"19.75 to 20.25"

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 you land in two bands, riding style breaks the tie: longer for flow, trails and transitions, shorter for technical street and park.

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.

Top tube is measured from the centre of the seat tube to the centre of the head tube, so it is not the same as the length of the tube you can see.

  • A 20 inch bike is the standard adult BMX and most riders end up there, so do not size a tall child down to a smaller wheel.
  • 22, 24 and 26 inch bikes are adult bikes with a bigger wheel, not bigger frames for taller riders.
  • Size up for stability through trails and transitions. Size down if you want the bike quick and twitchy for spins and grinds.
  • Top tube is fixed, but stem length, fork offset and bar position all shift how roomy the bike feels once you are on it.
