Question

B.M.X.

The B.M.X. (Bicycle Motor Cross) is a bike designed and built for specific purposes. ·

The bike is generally made of steel so that jt is strong and will not bend under the enormous stress that it is subjected to when being ridden. Some bikes, designed especially for B.M.X. racing, are made of aluminium because it is Iighter.

The main difference between B.M.X. and .other bikes is the undersized frame which ailows maximum manoeuvrability. The wheels are also small, with wide tyres. Most have a gyro system of bearings and pulleys that allows the large, curved handlebars to spin 360 degrees. This enables the rider to perform daredevil stunts and tricks. The saddle is low and not padded for comfort because the bike is often ridden by standing on the pedals or on strong, steel stunt pegs that are found on either side of the front and back wheels.

There are now centres in the country where B.M.X. riders take part in competitions. There is even fin event called the 'X Games' which is the Olympics of .the extreme sports world. Many young riders challenge themselves to imitate the daring and complicated exercises performed by the professionals.

Some bikers ride up and down slopes that look like larger versions of skateboard ramps, executing difficult jumps and spins at both ends. Others perform their tricks on flat ground, balancing on small areas of the bike itself. Specially designed B.M.X. bikes, with large, chunky tyres to provide more definite grip, race ten abreast over dirt tracks. There are now a number of separate areas where the bikes can be ridden safely away from cars and pedestrians.

B.M.X. bikes provide riders with the opportunity to use their skill and imagination to carry out gymnastic and artistic stunts.
