Some of the worlds BMX legends started out on a 16” BMX. This was a massive consideration to us when designing Soldato. Of course, we wanted it to be affordable, but it also had to perform exactly as an unexperienced rider would expect.

Some of the worlds BMX legends started out on a 16” BMX. This was a massive consideration to us when designing Soldato. Of course, we wanted it to be affordable, but it also had to perform exactly as an unexperienced rider would expect. Little people need lightweight bikes with perfect geometry that nurtures their innate inner desire to get out there and smash it. Soldato HAD to inspire confidence and therefore, our foremost considerations were based on weight, geometry and ergonomics.
With 13 years’ experience working with some of the world’s top riders (designing and manufacturing their signature products), we feel we have succeeded in channelling our know-how into the perfect BMX for early starters.
Yes, a BMX bike can be a good option for riding to school, especially if your route includes short distances or urban areas. BMX bikes are compact, durable, and easy to maneuver, making them ideal for navigating crowded streets or sidewalks. A BMX bike is fun and practical for riding to scool.
BMX bike sizes are typically determined by the rider's height. For riders under 4’6”, a 16-inch BMX bike is recommended. For those between 4’6” and 5’9”, a 20-inch bike is standard. Taller riders may prefer a 22-inch BMX for comfort and control. Always try a bike to ensure it fits your riding style.
Regular maintenance for a BMX bike includes checking tire pressure, tightening the chain, lubricating the chain and bearings, and ensuring the brakes are functioning properly. It's also important to inspect the frame and components after performing stunts to ensure there are no cracks or wear.
