Prostart Portable Gate Max Now Available
Our friends over at Prostart officially launched their biggest practice gate yet. The Max, or as it’s officially known “portable gate Max”.
We’ve had a pre release version here at bmxultra.com HQ for a couple of months now, which is very close to the final product. We love that it doesn’t have the added weight and noise of a compressor and it’s such a simple rider triggered gate anyone could operate it.
The Max is a major step in the evolution of BMX practice gates and it dwarfs the original gate that Prostart have been producing since 2007.
The two piece design has now been finalised it can be set up or packed away in under a minute and you can see from the photos just how portable it is.
While the Prostart Portable Gate Max offers more flexibility and is perfect for larger riders and a larger range of bikes the Prostart’s Original practice gate is perfectly fine if you are looking for a portable gate for 20″ and 24″ bikes with a small footprint that folds neatly away into a bag.
