Wildcat Mini BMX USA FAQ

Many people wonder how much weight will a Mini BMX hold? 

A Wildcat one piece crank Mini BMX - or an A series - has been tested up to 220lbs, however we recommend these bikes for people up to 175lbs. 

The three piece crank Wildcat Mini's - or a Pro Series - have been tested on riders up to 265lbs, however we recommend them for riders up to 220lbs.

Mini BMX bikes can really range in weight. 

Keep in mind, the heavier it is, the harder it is to ride. 

Wildcat Mini BMX have the lightest Mini BMX's on the market, with the Wildcat Mini Pro Series coming in at 8.9kg or just under 20 lbs. 

Wildcat has replaced the 'Clunky' steel cart wheels found on all other Mini BMX bikes for either the Turbo Wheel (on the Pro Series) or the Cross Wheel Set (on the OG3A series). 

These Nylon and Aluminum wheels make them stronger, truer and lighter - avoiding many of the pitfalls that people find with cart wheels. 

Why shred on an inferior bike when you can shred on a Wildcat.

Wildcat Mini BMX Bikes are made for people aged 4-40.

Children as young as 3 1/2 or 4 can ride a Wildcat Mini BMX - some parents will even add training wheels on the bikes until their child can ride confidently on their own.

And adults up to to 40 or 50 years old can also ride. 

Age is no barrier to riding a Wildcat mini bmx bike. 

Wildcat BMX mini bikes are specially designed for both kids and adult to shred to their hearts content!

Most of our parts will fit on Fatboy Mini's and Mini Rocker BMX bikes as well. We also have the only disc brakes for Mini BMX in the USA and Canada.

The A series Wildcat's have a one piece crank - tested up to 220lb and come with the Cross Wheel Set.

The Pro Series Wildcat's have a three piece crank - tested up to 265lb, and have the Aluminum and Nylon Turbo Wheel. They also have a improved frame geometry which makes riding even more comfortable for older riders.

Wildcat is the world leader in Mini BMX development. We pioneered the Disc Brake to make stopping easier for those wanting to be able to control their Mini BMX more effectively.

Some Mini's come with a calliper brake, however due to the 'fatness' of the wheel, these brakes have a limited braking ability.

We used to use calliper brakes, but developed the disc brake to make it more effective, and ultimately safer.

We get lots of people wanting to try and put Wildcat's disc brake on their Mini Rocker BMX or Fatboy Mini BMX.

Unfortunately the disc brake won't fit on any of the Rocker Mini's - you can't fit the brake on their frame.

There are a number of Fatboy Mini BMX Bikes however that will take a Wildcat Mini Disc Brake.

To be sure it will fit, please confirm your frame has the following mounting points before ordering a Wildcat Mini BMX disc brake.

Mini Rockers, or Mini BMX bikes as they really are, do not all have brakes. 

Most brands use an inferior Caliper brake which really struggles to grip the tire and stop the bike from rolling.

Wildcat Mini BMX is the only brand to develop a Disc Brake which can be found on all Wildcat Mini Bikes at wildcatmin.com.

We include brakes to make them safer, and our Pro Series P30's also come with a Gyro Kit as standard, to allow you to spin those bars for days!!

Ultimately, it's about quality. 

Many department store bikes and other brands you see are made from inferior materials - some even have plastic or cart wheels. And a dead giveaway is to look at the welds.

Also, almost all Mini BMX bikes, except for Wildcat come out of the same factory. They are mass produced and have an inferior build.

We are the first full strength Mini BMX with 100% specialized design and true BMX bloodline characteristics across the full range.

Many have commented that our bikes are priced similar to 20" BMX's - well, that's because the parts used on a Wildcat have the same characteristics as 20" BMX bikes.

We currently have 3 series of Wildcat BMX to allow you to purchase a lower spec bike at a cheaper price, but for the true professional and stunt rider, we have developed the Pro Series and the P30 to help you bomb even harder.

Wildcat continually develop the brand to make it lighter and stronger.

The Wildcat Brand has been around since 2015, when it was born in Spain. 

However, our MiniBMX factory began producing parts in 2012 for ODM during the initial explosion of the sport. With a professional team of researchers and developers working alongside the REDBULL riders, WILDCAT successfully developed the first generation of ORIGINAL Mini BMX, the first full strength Mini BMX with 100% specialized design and true BMX bloodline characteristics across their full range.

Wildcat then launched in Australia in 2015, and New Zealand in 2017. 2019 it was time for the USA after years of requests from riders.

We are incorporated in Delaware.

Timeline of the Wildcat

To this day Wildcat is the ONLY true Mini BMX brand (to our knowledge!) that owns and operates their own production lines. This allows constant evolution and innovation of their offering, keeping Wildcat well ahead of the competition.

2015 - Wildcat successfully designed and developed professional accessories compatible with full size freestyle BMX use, standards of production and specialized processes.

2016 - Wildcat developed new lighter, stronger and truer heat treated wheel hubs, replacing the inferior cart style wheel still used by some brands today... Also the CNC9t driver and the integrated CNC steering tube.

2017 - Wildcat developed a specialized removable disk brake system.

2018 - the new generation and worlds first aluminum alloy MiniBMX frame was successfully developed alongside the new Turbo wheel. Total bike weight has been reduced to just over 7kg making this the lightest and strongest MiniBMX in existence by a long shot. The new design is an astonishing 3kg lighter than its predecessor.

2019 - Wildcat launches in the USA after incredible demand and request. Along the launch in the USA comes the brand new Pro Series - taking Wildcat to a whole new level of ride.

2022 - Wildcat launches the OG Series and the OG Pro Series - taking things even further than anyone has done before.
