Same specification as the 2026 Patron; these are prior-season colourways.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size should I order?
Order by your USA BMX racing class first. The Patron Expert covers riders roughly 4'6"–5'0" (ages 9–12). Expert XL fits 4'10"–5'4". Pro XL suits riders 5'6"–5'10". Pro XXL and Pro XXXL are for taller adults from 5'9" upward. If your child is between two sizes, order the size that matches their current USA BMX class — it's more important to match the class than to match height exactly. Call us if you're unsure.
What makes the Patron different from the Superclass?
Three things: the frame, the rims, and the brake. The Patron is built on the HSX Patron alloy frame with a fixed 15mm chainstay system — the same geometry as the HSX Carbon, not just a Superclass frame in disguise. It ships with SD Carbon rims front and rear, where the Superclass uses alloy rims. And it runs Shimano MT501 hydraulic disc braking, same as the Superclass. The carbon rims are where most of the real-world speed difference comes from — lower rotational weight out of the gate and through every section.
What fork does the Patron come with?
The Patron ships with the SD Expert Carbon V2 fork on Expert and Expert XL sizes, and the SD Pro Carbon V2 on Pro and Cruiser sizes. Both are UD carbon fiber legs with a 7000-series aluminum tapered steerer. The fork is colour-matched to the frame colourway.
Does it need assembly?
Yes. The Patron arrives partially assembled and requires professional mechanic completion before the first ride. Carbon components — including the fork — must be installed to manufacturer torque specifications. We strongly recommend having a professional BMX mechanic complete the build. Improperly installed carbon can fail without visible warning.
Is it USA BMX legal?
Yes. The HSX Patron frame meets and exceeds CPSC and EN 14781 standards and is legal for all USA BMX and BMX Canada sanctioned events.
What gearing does it come with?
Gearing varies by size — contact us for the specific chainring/sprocket combination that ships with the size you're ordering. Most Patron builds ship with a standard race gear ratio appropriate for the frame size class.
Can I run OS (oversize) wheels?
Yes. The HSX Patron frame is compatible with standard 20" and OS20 wheels.

Size names (Expert, Pro, etc.) refer to fit — not skill level. A beginner can ride a Pro-size frame. When in doubt between two sizes, go with your USA BMX racing class first, rider height second. Questions? Call us — we size riders every day.
