The 3\/8-inch dropouts accommodate lightweight racing wheels and are not compatible with 14mm axles. Choose wheel size based on your frame: 20-inch for standard BMX, 24-inch for junior\/cruiser class, 26-inch for cruiser, or 26-inch XL for taller riders needing additional clearance. Best suited for BMX racing where weight savings, precise steering, and durability under gate starts and jump impacts matter. The 33mm offset provides quick turn-in response ideal for navigating berms and technical track sections. Not recommended for street or park riding where 14mm axles and additional strength are typically preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S\u0026M Bikes","offers":[{"title":"20\" \/ Black","offer_id":45037174227123,"sku":"02-RXTAP-20-BLK","price":209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20\" \/ White","offer_id":45037174259891,"sku":"02-RXTAP-20-WHT","price":209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24\" \/ Black","offer_id":45037174161587,"sku":"02-RXTAP-24-BLK","price":209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"24\" \/ White","offer_id":45037174194355,"sku":"02-RXTAP-24-WHT","price":209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"26\" XL \/ Black","offer_id":45037174128819,"sku":"02-RXTAP-26-415-BLK","price":209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8737\/2979\/files\/02-RXTAP-20-BLK_1_5e1de850-1862-4c0e-b49f-709405594a2b.jpg?v=1783465866","url":"https:\/\/time2shinebmx.com\/products\/s-m-race-xlt","provider":"Time 2 Shine ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
