“The Coast is all about inspiring kids to start riding from an early age. Balance bikes, like the Coast, help to teach kids balance and coordination instead of relying on training wheels. What’s special about the Coast, is the way it combines features and geometry for children, with that of a BMX bike. The Coast is truly a balance bike designed for working a child’s way up to their first BMX bike.

Coming in the rad Gloss Splash Blue, the Coast is kitted with some great BMX style parts. The miniaturized 5” Kink Puma CC bars, 12” Kink Lance forks, and Mission X7 20-hole rims, all adapt BMX components to the right size and dimensions to comfortably fit a child’s needs. The ultra-low standover height allows the seat to be dropped even lower for kids to get rolling as soon as possible.

Note: Designed for children ages 2 and up. Seat height adjustable from 14.25″-16.75″.”

“Simply put, the Kink Roaster is designed to be a kids first BMX bike. The 12” wheel and frame size make it an easy transition from a balance bike and means kids will feel completely comfortable on their first pedaling bike. Once again, this bike isn’t simply a bike with 12” wheels or merely a miniaturized BMX bike. It factors into account standard BMX geometry, and applies them to a younger child’s size and needs.

The Gloss Nuclear Green colorway really shines while the bike sports some great components throughout. In addition to the miniaturized 5” Kink Puma CC bars and 12” Kink Lance forks, the Roaster features a coaster brake in lieu of a lever-based brake system, that could be too difficult for some children to use at a young age. The chainstay bridge design has been updated to fit a caliper brake or 990 brake plate for those looking to add a lever style brake as well.

Note: Designed for children ages 4 and up. Seat height adjustable from 15.5″-18.5″.”

“The Kink Carve 16” bike is the younger sibling of our Kicker 18”, and it ensures every age and every height rider can find a perfect fitting Kink bike. Kids are getting into BMX younger and younger, and we love it. The 2019 Carve comes in a subtle Gloss Translucent Black color, which is complimented by black components throughout.

Properly proportioned geometry and components create a modern, yet comfortable ride, suited for the rider who isn’t ready for the bump up to a larger 18” bike yet. Still stacked with great parts, the 2019 Carve comes with 7” Kink Tiger CC bars, a short reach 40mm Mission topload stem, rock solid 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks with sealed Mid bottom bracket, a sealed integrated headset, and all new modern tread design 2.4” tires.”

“The Kicker is our only 18” bike in the line and is built with younger riders in mind who aren’t quite ready to make the jump to their first 20” bike. With similar components to the Kink Launch model, this bike doesn’t compromise on any specs. This year the Kicker comes in a tough looking Gloss Midnight Blue color and is paired with all black components and chrome bars.

Geometry on the Kicker 18” bike is specifically tailored in all aspects and is again, not simply a smaller bike. All parts and components work together to create the perfect bike for younger and shorter riders. A few notable components kitted with the Kicker are the 8” Kink Badger CC bars, rock solid 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks with sealed Mid bottom bracket, a sealed integrated headset, and all new modern tread design 2.4” tires.”

“The 2019 Curb, which is available in four great colorways, offers the entry-level rider a bike that looks and feels like a pro model without the price tag. Whether you choose Matte Black Goldschlager, Gloss Smoked Stang Teal, Matte Aquatic Blue, or Gloss Nickel, you’re getting an amazing bike.

Featuring modern geometry and outfitted with components such as 8.75” Kink Human CC bars, 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks, a raised Mission Control TL stem, soft Kink Paragon grips with push-in Kink Thrust bar ends, and new 2.4” tires front and rear; the Curb is perfect for any rider looking for a solid first bike.”

“The 2019 Launch continues the legacy of a truly remarkable bike. This bike is still one of the best value priced models in the market, hands down, year after year. Available in Gloss Raw Gold, Matte Cali Poppy Edge Fade, and Gloss Black Holo Confetti colorways, the Launch pairs it’s great color selection with even better components.

The Launch is equipped with both a sealed integrated headset and sealed Mid bottom bracket, which drastically improves performance and virtually eliminates maintenance of these components. Combined with a parts package that includes Kink Stryker forks, Kink Human CC 8.75” bars, and Mission Triumph 3pc tubular chromoly cranks, this bike is a rookie’s dream.”

“The Gap is a versatile machine ready to handle anything you throw at it. Featuring modern geometry, the frame, fork and bars add 4130 chromoly into the mix, and is available in both Chrome or Gloss Trans Black Cherry Friction Fade colorways. Components found on the Gap take things up a notch and are not to be missed.

Not only will it look the part, the 9” Kink Grizzly CC bars, Kink Stryker forks, Kink Bold HRD stem, sealed Mission Engage cassette hub, and Kink Ridge 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks help it to feel and perform the part. The addition of a Pivotal seat and seat post are not to be overlooked either and add both adjustability and modern compatibility. Modern frame geometry brings a lower bottom bracket and raised standover height to the Gap, for a stable ride.”

“The Whip is where our line really gets exciting. This beast is constructed using full 100% 4130 chromoly throughout the entire frame, fork and handlebar set. Complimenting this strong, durable structure are sealed bearings everywhere; headset, bottom bracket, and both front and rear hubs. Topping off all the great functionality, the Whip comes in a Gloss Raspberry Red colorway with chrome cranks and a silver stem to match.

Featuring Kink Stryker forks, 9” Kink Grizzly CC bars and Kink Ridge 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks, the Whip is fitted with great components featuring modern geometry. Adding to all these specs are the comfortable Kink Ace flangeless grips, Kink Hemlock pedals, and Pivotal seat and seat post. Retailing for a price everyone can agree with, the Whip cannot be beaten.”

“The Kink Liberty stays true to its name and gives the rider ultimate freedom; pegs and no brakes. For those who do wish to ride brakes though, the Liberty is fully equipped with removable brake mounts and includes a full Mission brake set. The 2019 Liberty doesn’t disappoint in its design or components either, and features 100% 4130 chromoly construction, and sealed bearings throughout the bike. The addition of two included plastic pegs means this bike is grind ready out of the box. The textured Matte Blacksmith Blue color is paired with chrome cranks and bars, with black accessories.

Complementing the Liberty model are a ton of great components like the Kink Trident forks featuring a one-piece steerer tube, 9” Kink Eagle CC 4-piece bars, Kink Bold HRD stem and Kink Ridge 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks. Combining the removable brake design, two included plastic pegs, and the street style Kink Sever 2.4” tires, really solidifies this bike as a true street machine.

Note: This bike includes removable brake mounts and full Mission brake set.”

“Freshened up for 2019, the Kink Downside gets even better after its introduction last year. The general construction is nothing less than you would expect, with its 100% 4130 chromoly frame, fork, bars, and sealed bearings throughout the bike. The big bars, short backend and sealed rear freecoaster hub mean the Downside is ready for some serious riding. The wild Matte Electric Silver colorway needs to be seen under the sun to be truly appreciated, and the paired black forks and bars keep this bike looking pro.

When it comes to the components featured on the Downside, you won’t find any short cuts either. Components like the Kink Bold HRD stem, 2.4” wide Kink Sever tires, and Mission Dispatch freecoaster, start to really set this bike apart. This model also features the tall 9” Kink Grizzly CC bars, Kink Ridge 3-piece tubular chromoly cranks, and two Mission Targa plastic pegs.

Note: This bike includes removable brake mounts and full Mission brake set.”

“New for 2019, the Kink Crook is all about modern geometry and is built for truly modern BMX riding. The name, Crook, inspired by the crooked grind which was once a trick reserved for the most talented riders, has become a staple in street riding being linked in technical lines or slid down massive handrails. Regardless of your riding style, the new Kink Crook has got you covered with the included four plastic pegs and rear freecoaster wheel. The fresh Matte Galaxy Purple colorway really sets this bike apart without being too flashy, and the all black parts and accessories keeps the bike looking tough.

In addition to the full 100% 4130 chromoly frame and fork, the Crook features an amazing list of components. This model comes with aftermarket Kink Grizzly 9” 13-butted 100% 4130 chromoly bars, Kink Capron Stealth seat, and Kink 2.4” Sever tires front and rear. The integrated seat clamp, removable brake design, and Mission Dispatch freecoaster rear wheel solidify the aftermarket look and feel to this bike. To top it all off, the Crook of course comes standard with four Mission Targa plastic pegs.

Note: This bike includes removable brake mounts and full Mission brake set.”

“The Legend is the flagship model in our 2019 line, and this bike really lives up to its name. BMX has a lot of legends in the form of amazing bike riders; from top pros to the local legend in your town that seemingly no one else can ride as smooth as, go as high as, or do the tricks they can do. The Kink Legend bike is all about that, a no compromises bike that doesn’t get in your way from riding at that level. Stacked with aftermarket parts, and superior manufacturing and materials, the Legend is the best of the best in BMX, no question. The unique Gloss Copper frame finish stands out, while remaining timeless and tough with all black parts, accessories and a blacked-out aluminum headtube badge.

The frame itself features both a double-butted toptube and downtube and is paired up to aftermarket Kink Foundation II forks with a short 26mm offset, and aftermarket Kink Grizzly 9” rise heat-treated bars. The impressive components list continues with the Kink 7075-T6 Bedlam sprocket, Mission half-link chain, Kink Sever 2.4” tires, and Kink Highrise CNC stem. The 2019 Legend also features a Mission Dispatch freecoaster and four Kink Drift pegs, so this bike is truly ready to ride straight out of the box.

Note: This bike includes removable brake mounts and full Mission brake set.”
