Intense BMX has really exploded on to the BMX racing scene in the last few year. Toby Henderson is a BMX legend, and the man behind Intense, and he doe not mess around. Intense is not just a name, it is frame of mind. These guys are 100% hardcore BMX racing through an through.
The Intense Podium BMX racing frames are some of the most technologically advanced frames on the market. A lot of research and development has gone into producing the Podium series frames, not to mention the incredible amount of engineering to get these frames just right.
The Intense Podium frames are of course aluminum and feature a hydro-formed top tube, integrated headtube, a triple butted hydro-formed downtube, European B/B, triple butted seatstays and double butted chainstays.
The geometry is very well thought out and provides a very unique, flex free ride. The attention to detail on every aspect of these BMX frames is very evident. If your a serious BMX racer looking to build a custom ride, the Intense Podium frames are pretty much top of the line.
They retail for about $400 and are available at any serious BMX Pro shop. We have posted the frame specs for each model below for your convenience. As always, if you ride one of these frames, please post your comments below.

Nice frame, great quality but way to heavy for the smaller guys.
I picked up the XL frame this year, switching from the redline Flight. The Podium is awesome, I love the ride (as does everyone who takes it for a spin). After my first ride on this bike, I knew I would never go back to the flight. The top tube definitely puts it in the category of “unique”, and I continually get compliments on the bike.
Every ride is different, as is every rider, this might not be the frame for you, but it sure is for me!

i got an 09 pro size, switching from a free agent which felt like a tank compared, nice frame though im impressed, easy to get on the back tire though sometimes feeling a bit sketchy like the front wheel likes to fall side to side, but thats not a prob most the time. def a strong frame also. i would recommend it to someone. dont ride an avent unless yer ready they truly are weird i got on one and first jump over cleared about 5ft. and it was a jump ive been over hundreds of times. some people may like it but, wow.
