The Frame, the Defining Feature of a Mini Bike

 When die-hard fans of mini bikes get together to discuss the various aspects of their lean machines, there are many things to talk about – the bikes when they were teens, the later models, the power, and so much more. But one thing is usually constant in the discussions and that is the looks of the various models that are launched by all manufacturers every year or at fixed intervals. And the thing to look out for is the mini bike frame of the new models that captures the imagination of the buyers.



Why is this so? If you look carefully at subsequent versions of any manufacturer, you will notice that there is generally not a massive overall of the engine, the power train, or the sizes. But what changes is the mini bike frame to give the bike a brand-new look. This is because it is easy to slightly tweak the frame- change the shape of the gas tank, the position of the seat, or the length of the forks, and you have a mini bike that is completely different from its predecessor without costing a fortune to the maker in new tooling and setting up an updated assembly line.

A mini bike frame is made of steel or aluminum struts with the rear suspension welded into the main frame. This enhances the strength and safety and makes for a smooth ride. The mini bike frame of racing and dirt bikes is made of much-lighter magnesium, titanium, and carbon fiber components. The front fork and the head tube rotate smoothly on the mini bike frame. Other components of a mini bike frame are the front and rear suspensions.
