Elite BMX Pee Wee 18″ Complete Bike – Black/Gold

The Elite BMX Pee Wee 18″ is a complete BMX bike designed for younger or smaller riders transitioning to performance-oriented components. Built around a hi-tensile steel frame and fork, this bike combines durability with real BMX geometry and parts that can handle street, park, and neighborhood riding. The 170mm chromoly 3-piece cranks and 25-tooth sprocket provide a gearing setup that balances acceleration with top-end speed for 18″ wheel size.

Key Features

• Hi-Tensile Steel Frame and Fork – Durable steel construction absorbs impacts and withstands the abuse of learning tricks and riding rough terrain; heavier than chromoly but more affordable and still plenty strong for this wheel size
• 170mm Chromoly 3-Piece Cranks – Heat-treated chromoly crank arms offer strength and stiffness for power transfer; 3-piece design allows for easier maintenance and upgrades compared to 1-piece cranks
• 25T Sprocket with 9T Driver – Provides a balanced 2.78:1 gear ratio that gives younger riders enough speed without requiring excessive pedaling effort; easy to push and control
• Alloy Top-Load Stem (50mm Reach) – Shorter reach keeps the handlebar position closer for better control on smaller frames; top-load design allows for handlebar height adjustment
• 14mm Rear Axle with Included Pegs – Stronger 14mm axle supports grinding and peg use right out of the box; front 3/8″ axle keeps the front end lighter for manuals and hops
• Alloy U-Brake with Stealth Lever – Provides reliable stopping power; U-brake design keeps the brake tucked under the chainstays for clearance during barspins and 360s

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases

The Pee Wee 18″ is designed for younger riders typically between 6–9 years old or those approximately 4'0″–4'6″ in height, though rider size and preference vary. This bike suits riders moving beyond beginner bikes who want real BMX components and geometry for progressing in street, park, or flatland riding. The included pegs and 14mm rear axle make this bike ready for learning grinds, while the U-brake setup allows for barspin tricks without brake cable interference. Suitable for riders who have outgrown 16″ bikes but aren't ready for 20″ setups.
