      Bike Comparison for BMX/Race Bicycles
      Because the world looks a whole lot brighter from the podium It’s easier to reach the podium again and again when you’re racing a bike that’s been built on more than 30 years of experience. Just ask Mike Day. He might even show you that Olympic silver medal he got on his GT. Or the World Championship medals. Or his ABA Golden Crank Award. Or the…well, you get the idea.

      Just make sure your bike can keep up.Sure you’ve got moves and sick skills. But you need a bike that’ll showcase them? Take a hint from Dave Dillewaard who hits it all - from street to park, Dew Tour to X-Games - on his GT. We’ll give you all the performance we give him: micro-sized gearing, a mid-sized bottom bracket, bombproof build. You’ll be shredding like Dave in no time. Yeah, right.
