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!

  • Several owners say the tires won't stay inflated or they pop off the rim while riding due to the low-quality tubes, tires, and rims.
  • Many bikes arrive with damaged or missing parts.
  • One owner says the pedals snap off after a week.
  • Four buyers report wobbly, out-of-true wheels that spin crookedly.
  • For some, the brake pads wear quickly.

Bottom line

Joystar's Brockway is an entry-level BMX bike available in two sizes. Its low price and attractive colorways draw buyers. However, significant safety concerns are highlighted by owners, such as the weak brake that wears quickly, the pedals snapping off, and various tire and rim issues that lead to crashes in some cases. Joystar's use of low-end components and its failure to conduct quality control make the Brockway a poor and unsafe choice. Alternatively, consider the Mongoose Rebel.
