Meanwhile, the Scarab EL's lightweight alloy platform pedals are durable enough for even the most extreme BMX use.

The Scarab EL's frame is strong and durable due to its integrated head tube, mid bottom bracket while its geometry (20.25" tube top length, 13.66" rear end length, 11.4" bottom bracket height, 74.5° head tube angle and a 71° seat tube angle) allows for optimal, pro-level BMX use. Its 8” rise HB handlebars are comfortable and ideal for BMX use with a 7.7” rise, 6° up sweep and a 10° back sweep. Additionally, the Scarab EL's alloy platform pedals are strong enough to handle tough BMX use for years to come without adding any unnecessary weight. The Hoffman Scarab EL is available in flat metal and neon green.
