Bikes / Archive / 2017 and Older / 2017 Bikes

We love BMX bikes because they are hands-down the simplest and toughest bikes out there. Why can’t more bikes be as durable as a BMX yet still comfortable enough to “sit-down and pedal-on”? Designed to be the bike that we all want to bomb around town on, the Fairdale Taj does all of that and more.

We paired the unrivaled strength of a BMX with a fun “adult-sized” bike layout. Think of it as a bullet-proof, easy-to-use cruiser that can also handle some real BMX action.
