Supercross (a BMX company) has made a few limited edition 26" BMX frames. I'm not talking your typical street MTB - a quick glance at the geometry will tell you that. Wonder how it rides?

Features include: Campy integrated headset, 68mm euro bb, 22.25" toptube, 73.5 head angle and the fork has a axle to crown height of 390mm.



Props to PlusSizeBMX for finding it.

Yea 73.5 is crazy steep. I built myself a hardtail with a 71 and it steers real quick. Usually with BMX geometry, people put the BB above the axle level, which always feels weird to me. It's nice to see this one with a reasonable BB height. I wonder what the chainstay length is?

It looks good! But again the head angle would be more steep that some people might be used to...
