so bmx's are described as ddht when they have no suspension on the rear?

that can not be right

so when is a bmx ever not ht?

what a stupid fooking phrase


i knew "ht" meant that in mountainbikes, but it bore no relevance to bmx so i figured it must stand for something else

I think that ddht, as a description of a general frame design, has come about since rear suspension (on MTBs). BMX's fall into that category, and almost always do (maybe not always double diamond) and its just a nice way of saying it.

hard tail means a shock on the front and none on the rear,a bmx would be classed as fully rigid,like a mountain bike with no suspension.

Anybody ever see those all silver 'BMXs' from the 80s wth cast alloy mags, 5 spd deraillerururue gears and a dynamo??? :wtf:????

I fink they were some kind of German import sold in catalogues

'Hee you are son, get that, it's only 15 quid more than an ammoco and it's got a dynamo and gears!'


Thanks Dad; lIt looks totally SH#TE and weighs more than USS Nimitz!   (He was, however, right about that saddle though...)

Personally if i had to hazard a guess i would say it came from the motorcycle industry at the dawn of BMX.
