top tube


the section of a bike frame that connects the head tube (where the forks go) with the seat tube (where the seat post goes). usually 20-21 inches on a bmx bike. a shorter top tube generally means a shorter wheelbase, therefore making the front end easier to lift. flatland frames commonly have shorter top tubes (~18.5″) for ease of maneuvering. a tall rider may find bruised knees as a result of a top tube being too short.
