i like the term MTBMX.

to me, the term conveys both an approach to the bike and an approach to riding. it especially describes the type of rider who has experience in (or is influenced by) both bmx and mtb worlds and is consciously blending them.

it also makes more sense than multiple descriptors like DJ/park/26street etc.




for example....

DECLINE MAGAZINE -- The Chris Donahue Interview
http://www.declinemagazine.com/content.php?itemid=4735

Chris Donahue has been out of the mountain bike lime light for some time now, but around ten years ago he's credited as being one of the first riders to fuse street and BMX riding style with the 26-inch world. Now he's working with Dobermann bikes and talking about what he's been up to lately.

Since 2005 Dobermann bikes have been blurring the lines between Mountain Biking and BMX with their hand built MTBMX frames. It seems fitting that the latest addition to the Dobermann family is one of the original street riders that brought 20-inch style to mountain bikes in the late 90's. For 2010 Dobermann has teamed up with Chris Donahue as part of their R&D program. We sat down with Chris to see what he's been up too, and to talk about his new partnership with Dobermann.

So if I ride a 10-speed road bike with BMX guys, hitting the DJ and park areas, am I riding MTBMX?

Nope, because than it wouldn't be a MTB anymore Wink

It would be something like ROADIEBMX or GAYMOBILE

Well you guys can call whatever "qualifier" you want out there. I was simply referring to the actual bicycle componentry - not the style of riding. I don't really care either way. I was using what I call MTBMX. To each their own. Neither is right or wrong. It just is. Now go out and ride!
