We looked back at the biggest names to ever grace the BMX scene and we came up with this top-class list. From world record holders to medal winners, these riders have taken the sport to a new level, and we want you to choose who deserves the title...

 

We gave you eight legends, but who’s your ultimate BMX hero? 

 

“Mad Dog” Moeller has been on the scene since the ‘80s. From causing havoc in the race scene to taking over the bike business, Chris has established himself as a BMX legend that has no intention of fading out. Founder of S&M bikes, his contributions to the bike world is one that looks like it will remain untouched for a while.

 

 

 

Ryan Nyquist could well be a robot. Pound-for-pound one of the best BMX riders that has ever lived, Nyquist has also turned his hand to MTB Slopestyle (watch the video below if you need proof). Ryan Nyquist is the perfect example of a rider who made it to the top and stayed there.

Scotty tied with Dave Mirra for the most X-Games gold medals in BMX Park, but Scotty’s biggest achievement is his recovery from a broken neck. Scotty went from paralysed to back on a bike in 10 months – and he documented the entire journey on his extremely popular YouTube channel.
