Encore Bikes is a Canadian BMX Brand (available through Brink Distribution) that offers completes that they claim “reflect the most current trends in BMX.”
In taking a look at their lineup, it really does seem like they have a finger on the pulse of what’s going on in BMX, specifically in the big-wheeled part of the sport.
Why do I say that?
Well, not only does Encore offer a new school 24″ in their lineup…but also a 22″ complete!
Let’s take a look at each one.
24″ Coda
Built around a 21.75″ top tube frame, the Coda features sealed front and rear hubs, a double-wall rear wheel, a tri-moly frame and chromoly tapered forks.
The frame specs are as follows:
- Head Tube: 74.5°,
- Seat Tube: 71°
- Chain Stay: 15.25″
- Bottom Bracket: 13″

22″ Anthem
The 21.75″ top tube and 8.7″ bars and 22″ wheels add up to a nicely-sized riding area on the Anthem.
Like the Coda, the Anthem features sealed front and rear hubs, a double-wall rear wheel, a tri-moly frame and chromoly tapered forks.
The frame specs are as follows:
- Head Tube: 74.5°,
- Seat Tube: 71°
- Chain Stay: 14.25″
- Bottom Bracket: 12.25″

Pretty nice big wheel representation by Encore!*
*Now, if they add a 26-inch to the lineup…that would be the icing on the cake!
