The Patterson Racing Story
Founded by Vance Patterson in November 1977, Patterson Racing Products emerged from a passion for BMX excellence and a commitment to innovation. When existing manufacturers failed to meet his vision for the perfect racing frame, Vance decided to build his own company.
The Patterson family didn’t just manufacture bikes—they raced them. Sons Brent and Brian Patterson became legendary figures in BMX racing, with the frames they rode becoming the gold standard for competitive cycling. Their success on the track proved the superiority of Patterson Racing’s engineering and design philosophy.
From 1977 to 1986, Patterson Racing produced some of the most sought-after BMX frames in history. Today, these bikes represent not just transportation, but pieces of American cycling heritage that continue to inspire new generations of riders.
