The Big Bike
The one that started it all for Torker — hand-made in Southern California, not far from the original Fullerton shop. BMX Action™ Magazine once called it a “Fiendishly Seductive Racing Bike,” and I have to agree.
This frame lit the spark for so many of us “Dirty Heads” who have loved BMX since birth. We dreamed about it while saving pennies from collecting bottles, running paper routes, mowing lawns — all to finally own the ultimate BMX racing bike of the mid-'70s: the Torker G.T. Big Bike, also known simply as THE BIG BIKE.
Are they going to be rare? Absolutely.
Are they going to be awesome? You know it.
Now you can channel your inner Kevin McNeal, Leo Green, and the other legends. These frames are 100% made in Southern California — right down to the premium chrome and powdercoat, all produced just down the street from where the originals were made in Fullerton.
