The Fit Hango frame is Jordan Hango’s Signature frame. Fit went the extra mile on this frame by adding thicker dropouts and beefing up the frame to survive bigger drops. The Hango frame comes in two colors and weighs around 5.2 lbs.

A: Top Tube Length:  20.75″, 21″, 21.25″ – Learn what size is right for you here.Opens in a new tab.

Check the size guide to see if its right for you..

Getting a top tube that is taller than suggested will make the bike feel more controlled and less responsive

Getting a top tube size that is smaller than normal will make the bike feel a lot more snappy and responsive. 

B: Chain Stay Length: 13.4″ – 14″ – Learn About Chain Stays HereOpens in a new tab.

This is a long chainstay. 

A short chain stay makes the bike feel twitchy. Spins will be easy, but airing and jumping might feel hard to control.

A long chain stay will make the bike feel really controlled. Spins will feel sluggish, but manuals and air tricks will feel nice because it will be more stable.

C: Head Tube Angle: 75° – Learn About Head Tube Angles HereOpens in a new tab.

Steep head tube angles make the bike “snappy” meaning more responsive to fast turns. 

A less steep head tube gives you more control.

D: Seat Tube Angle: 71°

E: Bottom Bracket Height: 11.5″

F: Stand over height: 8.75

This is a medium standover. 

A tall standover makes your seat higher up and will allow you to pinch it easier when learning barspins.

While a Small Standover will make it harder to bar but easier to whip

Price

This frame is almost $400, but the best thing about this frame is that it is made in the USA. Generally, this makes the frame stronger and of higher quality. But it will cost more than most.

For $389 you get a strong frame with thicker drop outs that will hold up to big drops and hefty riding. The Hango frame has removable brake mounts and they are sold separately if you need the hardware.

Why does it cost as much a complete bike?

It’s kind of crazy to think that you can get a complete bike for less than this frame. However, this frame is for high-level riding and will outlast a complete bike by YEARS. Here are a few things that make it more expensive than a complete bike.

  • 4130 Chromoly
  • Removable Brake Hardware
  • Extra Thick Downtube

Conclusion

The Hango frame is designed for a mid to high-level rider who spends most of their time riding street. It has a really long chainstay that will make the bike feel responsive and stable. It is really high quality and priced at a reasonable price. I think Fit frames are great and this one is no exception.

This frame will be able to replace any frame on any bike that I review on this website.

My parents bought me my first BMX bike in 2011 and it changed my life. This bike has taken me all over the world and introduced me to cool places and cooler people. My goal is to help get 1,000,000 people into BMX so they can experience the joy and freedom that comes from a progression based sport.
