BMX is an abbreviation for bicycle motocross. The activity originated when young cyclists began emulating their motocross heroes, performing stunts and racing with bikes instead of motorcycles. Although the opening of the 1971 motocross documentary On Any Sunday, which shows kids going off-road with their Schwinn Stingray bikes, is cited as the catalyst for the sport's popularity, there is BMX footage from Amersfoort, Netherlands, that dates back to the 1950s.
Where will you ride?
The physical demands on your BMX bike will be different depending on where you ride. There are five riding scenarios (each necessitating specific bike features): street, dirt, park, flatland, and racetrack. Yes, there is some blurring among types of bikes. As always, personal preference is the ultimate deciding factor. The following are some of the key differences among BMX bikes.

Street: Think of it as bike parkour. Cruising through an urban environment waiting to be inspired by a set of stairs and rails. This bike needs to be a bit sturdier and heavier so it can withstand those really hard hits.

Dirt: If you want to get big air, you need a solidly constructed bike that can survive those midair bails. To get the off-road traction you need, these bikes have knobby tires with deeper, thicker tread.
Park: These bikes are built for doing tricks in a controlled indoor environment. There are no unexpected surfaces or traction concerns, so the tires can be thinner with smaller treads. These bikes tend to be lighter than bikes for street or dirt riding.
Flatland: If you’re interested in this style of riding, you’re more concerned with grace than big air. The frame of this bike is different – the focus is on achieving balance in a wide variety of riding positions. You'll find pegs on both the front and rear, a system that prevents brake cables from getting tangled during 360° rotations, and the rear hub allows the wheel to roll backward freely. The tires on these bikes have slick treads.

Racetrack: There are two instantly noticeable differences on a racing bike. These bikes almost always have brakes, and they have a larger chainring/sprocket – the part attached to the crank that the chain wraps around – so the rider can go faster. Racing bikes are also lighter.
