class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_ride_a_BMX_bike_on_trails\"><\/span><strong>Can you ride a BMX bike on trails?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can ride a <a href=\"https:\/\/outdooralive.com\/bmx-bikes-overview\/\">BMX bike<\/a> on short countryside trails. Its solid and robust structure will allow you to make small jumps and drops. You need to pay more attention while making a big drop cause of the force and gravity issues.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BMX bikes were originally designed for racing and sports. You could easily ride on short trails, but the brake system would be problematic since your traditional BMX bikes have single brakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence, riding on a trail that includes deep holes, big stones, and obstacles with a lot of turning points, these brake systems can&rsquo;t back you up enough on such trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The small wheel size is a matter of concern as well. You can easily make jumps with these wheels and swing your bike up in the air. You can implement other tricky techniques like making impact jumps while riding your BMX bike on trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suspension on your bike is not necessary while riding on a trail. BMX bikes having very suitable and comfortable size, rough and robust structure, with no suspension can give you a wonderful experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_use_a_BMX_bike_for_mountain_biking\"><\/span><strong>Can you use a BMX bike for mountain biking?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can use a BMX bike for mountain biking if you&rsquo;re a pro cyclist. However, BMX bikes are the last option you would want to use for mountain biking for newbies or kids.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the low saddle position on BMX bikes, you have to pedal in a standing position. That is a lot of work and pressure for your body if you&rsquo;re climbing up a mountain. You will get exhausted in no time and run out of breathing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not to mention while hiking or mountain biking, you need to frequently change your bike speed and shift to higher or lower speed to keep going with the sudden shocks, ups and downs, obstacles, and turning points of the mountain roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can&rsquo;t get that flexible with a BMX bike because of the single-geared system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brake system of these small structured BMX bikes is also weak. You can&rsquo;t tackle the sudden shocks of mountain paths with just the rear brakes of your BMX bike. For that, you will need a robust brake system combining the front and rear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BMX bikes come with no suspension. That is to say, whilst climbing up a mountain on a bike with no suspension is too risky and puts pressure on your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not to forget, you have to pedal in a standing position without your legs extensions. That is just too much work on your body while hiking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can go on smooth roads of short distances or commute in suburban areas on your BMX bike. But mountain biking is not only risky but too much pressure on your body with a BMX.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>BMX mountain bike crossover &ndash; How to convert your BMX bike for off-road?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Five steps to convert your BMX bike for off-road-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rise_the_saddle_position\"><\/span><strong>Rise the saddle position:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Increase your seat height so that it aligns with your waist height to enable you to ride the bike in a sitting position. Thus, you can ride it for a long time comfortably on off-roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Install_multiple_gear_system\"><\/span><strong>Install multiple gear system:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Increase the gear system of your BMX by installing one or two more gear systems. It will give you more flexibility and freedom to control the speed and get a good grip on your bike while riding off-road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Improve_the_brake_system\"><\/span><strong>Improve the brake system:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Place a front brake in your BMX alongside the rear brakes to tackle the sudden shocks and obstacles of mountainous off-roads. It can save you and your bike from injuries, flat tires and other incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Place_a_suspension\"><\/span><strong>Place a suspension:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ride comfortably off-road, place a suspension on your BMX bike.
