Stepping it up from the 16 inch without jumping straight into full-size 20? The Raven Trickster 18 inch BMX bike is the sweet spot for younger shredders ready to start getting serious. Built to take a beating and keep rolling, this dialled little machine is stacked with features you normally don’t see at this price.
You’re looking at three-piece chromoly cranks, sealed bearing hubs, sealed MID bottom bracket, and 25-9 gearing—all the right stuff, right where it counts. The frame and fork are made from hi-tensile steel, and the alloy double-wall rims laced to sealed hubs are more than capable of handling curb drops, early park laps, and backyard sessions.
Need to stop in a hurry? You’ve got front and rear brakes—rear U-brake’s already fitted, front caliper’s in the box. The 680mm wide bars and top-load stem give it that pro look and feel, and 2.4 Inch wide tyres keep things planted and plush underfoot. It’s a real BMX, just in an 18 inch size made for smaller riders who are still growing in the game.
If you're chasing maximum value and minimal fuss, the Raven Trickster 18 Inch BMX bike is one of the best first BMX bikes money can buy. Just add a helmet and a little courage.
These are probably the best bang for your buck bikes for beginner riders at this price-point!
Don't forget to spice up your ride with some coloured pedals, tyres and grips to make it special!
