Huffy’s New HX Pro BMX Race Bike is Ready for the Gate Right Outta the Box

Huffy is making a hard charge at the BMX segment (again) with its new HX Pro BMX Race Bike. The new bike comes in at under $200, which is great for the budding BMX’er in your life. But it rocks real race geo, a rear chain tensioner, a sealed euro cartridge bottom bracket, and even a three-piece crankset with 44/16 race-ready gearing. Pretty kick-ass for the price.

I said “again” earlier because there was another time, long, long ago, where Huffy spent some real time and money in the BMX space. If I recall correctly, it was back in the mid-nineties that Huffy made a big push to be taken seriously in the BMX world.

They even had a BMX team chock-full of some heavy-hitting pros from the scene. Names like Todd Lyons, Cory Nastazio, Jimmy Levan, Scott Toth, and Randy Stumphauser were all wearing the Huffy BMX Team jersey.

Although initially released back in 2001, the Huffy HX Pro BMX Race Bike still looks pretty legit. With modern BMX geometry, and good-looking graphics.

It’s got some nice details you wouldn’t expect at the price point, like an internal headset and a cool looking hourglass head tube.

Huffy says it’s ready to race right out of the box, and is built to grow with riders of all ages and skill levels. The frame is made with 6061 aluminum, so the frame is strong and light.

Huffy spec’d the HX Pro with a proper 175mm three-piece crankset and 44/16 gearing, so smooth pedaling ensures efficient power is transferred to the rear wheel. The sealed cartridge bottom bracket means low maintenance and high durability. The HX Pro stops with “V” brakes, meaning you get dependable, powerful stopping power for total control on the track.
