Bikes

The bikes themselves are typically based around 20cm wheels, although other wheel sizes can be found on race bikes. They feature a rigid (often aluminium) frame and fork, alongside high-rise handlebars and a single cassette gear - making them robust and relatively easy to maintain.

Helmets

A full-face helmet is mandatory on a BMX track. A helmet must meet some of the standards and certifications.

Gloves & Pads

Gloves are also a compulsory piece of gear. 

For additional protection, knee pads and elbow pads are recommended. They are a requirement if you want to race in shorts and a t-shirt.
