About Tangent.

Bangin’ Bars since ‘98

EST. ‘98

Tangent started as a passion project in 1992 & soon became a global BMX operation in ‘98. At Tangent, we are the BMX racing leading company. We’ve grow from a single-part into a bicycle manufacturer that powers you to the podium. Our racer focused mentality has led us to create technologies & tools that empower racers & teams to think critically about their components.

Our Roots

Our history runs deep and our future is defined the products that we create. We’ve partnered with race teams to provide the ultimate & fastest racing components available to you. With our years of racing experience & industry knowledge, we work diligently to stay ahead of the game & provide you the tools you need to win.

To us, it’s not just about getting to the top of the podium. It’s about the passion & adventure it takes to get there. The early mornings packing up the car, the endless miles driven & ridden, the unforgettable memories we make along the way. Our passion for riding only gets stronger.

Basically… we’ll never stop playing in the dirt.
