Bike Size Charts

BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.

We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.

It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Bottom line

Riders looking for an entry-level BMX bike may consider the Elite BMX Stealth. It has a U-brake and is constructed of steel. The U-brake is not as responsive as users would like. The bike is great for mastering simple tricks like wheelies. One tester found the bike broke when they attempted to bunny hop on it. This trick is not advised. Testers also experienced issues with the pedals and seat. Despite the lack of instructions and needing tools to put the Stealth together, users found it simple to assemble. Wide 2.5” tires make the Stealth ideal for dirt and paved surfaces. Children will find this bike most useful but beginner BMXers of all ages can utilize it.
