A step up from 20-inch wheels

The Spectrum keeps the single-speed BMX layout and moves to 22-inch wheels. The larger diameter helps the wheels roll over bumps, giving you an option for trails, pumptracks and street riding when you want something bigger than a conventional 20-inch BMX.

Start with the frame size

The 21.75-inch top tube and 22-inch wheels are separate measurements. The suggested rider height starts at around 165 cm; treat that as a guide and check your reach and frame clearance. Compare the geometry with a bike you know, especially if you are near the lower end of that height guide.

The 9.25-inch seat tube measurement runs from the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube. It is not the height from the ground.

A simple drivetrain with no shifters

The Verde Regent three-piece 4130 chromoly cranks are 170 mm long. A 25T aluminium Verde Recon sprocket drives the 9T cassette hub, so there are no gear changes to operate. The cassette requires back-pedalling when you roll backwards.

Frame and wheel construction

The frame, tapered fork and 9-inch-rise bar are made from 100% 4130 chromoly. Verde Neutra double-wall rims have 36 holes, and both Neutra hubs use fully sealed cartridge bearings. DUO Brand Stun 1 tyres measure 22 x 2.3 inches.

Have the aluminium U-brake adjusted before riding. Check the wheels, frame, fork, crankset, pedals, brake and fixings before each session, and choose features suited to your ability and the bike’s intended use.

Safety while riding

Freestyle BMX riding puts high loads through the bike during tricks, jumps and landings. No bike is indestructible: parts can wear out or become damaged. Check the frame, fork, bars, wheels, axles, cranks, pedals, brakes and bolted connections before every ride. Inspect the bike after a hard impact and stop riding if you find looseness, cracks or damage. Have any problem checked and repaired before riding again.

Wear a properly fitted helmet and suitable protective pads. Read our important information before buying and riding a BMX bike for assembly, servicing and riding checks.

Important information about your new bike

• The bike is delivered approximately 90% assembled for shipping.
• Before the first ride, fit the pedals, saddle and handlebars, and the front wheel where required. Follow the assembly instructions and check all components.
