The JAG BMX WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 70’s and 80’s
HISTORY

It started way back in 1978 with the original JAG BMX World Championship in Indianapolis. From there it was pandemonium on the BMX scene for 6 years as JAG BMX dominated races and the BMX culture, spreading the sport around the globe. Renny Roker and JAG BMX made BMX and action sports what it is today. As a trendsetter in the sport, JAG BMX had a following within the sport and amongst the corporate world unlike any other. JAG BMX had its own shoe, its own bike and the strongest brand arguably in the history of BMX. Now, 30 years later, with BMX admitted into the Olympics and the sports popularity on the rise again JAG BMX is returning with a vengeance ready to set claim to the throne again.
