Stacked official word:
Your Kink Switch is a full chromoly bike with tons of high-end parts to hold up to anything you can do on it. You can hit the streets, romp around the skatepark, or hit the trails. The full chromoly frame, forks and bars are super stiff when doing tricks. The sealed parts will have you wrenching on your bike less and riding more. The 3pc cranks are lightweight and will be able to handle many drops. The freecoaster doubles the amount of tricks you can do by allowing you to roll forward or backwards without pedaling. Snag a bike like a pro and ride like a pro.
Shopify Product Description
Ready to take your street BMX riding to the next level?
The Kink Switch BMX Bike is a 20 inch freestyle BMX bike built for riders who want modern street geometry, full chromoly construction, and a complete setup with quality BMX components.
Whether you're upgrading from a basic beginner BMX bike or purchasing your first serious street BMX, the Kink Switch gives you a higher specification platform for learning manuals, bunny hops, 180s, 360s, grinds, and technical street riding.
Unlike many entry level BMX bikes that use high tensile steel frames and lower specification components, the Kink Switch features a 100% 4130 chromoly frame, fork, and handlebars.
Its street focused geometry includes a 20.75-inch top tube, 12.75-inch chainstay, 75.5-degree head tube angle, and 25mm fork offset. These dimensions create a responsive setup suited to technical freestyle riding.
The Kink Switch also features a Mission Engage sealed cassette rear hub, Mission Bond sealed bolt in front hub, sealed integrated headset, and sealed Mid bottom bracket.
For riders interested in grinding, the Switch includes two Mission nylon pegs. Its 165mm Kink Ridge tubular chromoly 3 piece cranks and 2.45 inch Kink Wake tires complete the street oriented component package.
Another standout feature is its flexible brake setup. The Switch is designed with a brakeless street riding appearance but includes removable brake mounts and a complete rear brake kit for riders who prefer brakes.
With 9 inch four piece chromoly handlebars, a 48mm Kink Brute stem, and a modern cassette drivetrain, the Switch is ready for riders who want a purpose built street BMX.
Full chromoly construction. Short rear end. Sealed bearings. Built for street progression.

Why BMX Riders Choose the Kink Switch
Full Chromoly Construction
The Switch features a 100% 4130 chromoly frame, fork, and handlebars, providing a high specification foundation for freestyle BMX.
Short 12.75 Inch Chainstay
The compact rear end is designed for responsive street riding and can help riders develop manual and spin techniques.
25mm Fork Offset
The shorter fork offset creates a responsive front end feel that many technical street riders prefer.
Fully Sealed Bearings
Sealed bearings in the headset, bottom bracket, front hub, and rear hub help protect the bearing systems from everyday riding conditions.
Street Ready Components
Two included nylon pegs, 165mm chromoly cranks, wide 2.45 inch tires, and four piece handlebars give the Switch a distinctive street focused setup.
Flexible Brake Setup
The included brake kit allows riders to choose whether to install the rear brake rather than requiring a separate brake purchase.
5 Problems You Can Run Into With Other Beginner BMX Bikes
1. High Tensile Steel Frames
Many basic beginner BMX bikes use high tensile steel frames.
These can work well for learning BMX fundamentals, but progressing street riders may prefer a full chromoly frame.
The Kink Switch advantage: A 100% 4130 chromoly frame comes standard.
2. Lower Specification Forks and Handlebars
Some beginner bikes use high tensile steel forks and handlebars.
The Kink Switch advantage: Both the fork and four piece handlebars are made from 100% 4130 chromoly.
3. Unsealed Hub Bearings
Basic BMX bikes may use unsealed hubs that require more frequent bearing adjustment and servicing.
The Kink Switch advantage: The front and rear hubs both use sealed bearings.
4. No Pegs Included
Many beginner BMX bikes don't include pegs, requiring riders interested in grinding to purchase them separately.
The Kink Switch advantage: Two Mission nylon pegs are included.
5. Geometry Less Focused on Technical Street Riding
Some beginner BMX bikes use longer rear ends and more relaxed steering geometry.
The Kink Switch advantage: Its 12.75 inch chainstay, 75.5 degree head tube angle, and 25mm fork offset create a responsive street oriented setup.
5 Reasons the Kink Switch Stands Out From Many Beginner BMX Bikes
1. Full 4130 Chromoly Frame, Fork, and Handlebars
The Switch offers full chromoly construction in three major structural components.
2. Sealed Bearings Throughout
The sealed headset, bottom bracket, front hub, and cassette rear hub provide a higher specification bearing package than many entry level BMX bikes.
3. Technical Street Geometry
The short rear end, responsive head tube angle, and 25mm fork offset are designed around technical street riding.
4. Street Components Already Included
Two nylon pegs, four piece chromoly handlebars, 165mm cranks, and wide tires make the Switch a street focused complete BMX.
5. Optional Brake Setup
The removable brake mounts and included rear brake kit give riders flexibility to configure the bike for their riding preferences.
