BMX-Street is a cycling discipline that (as the name states) takes place at public streets. BMX-Street riders use pavement edges, platforms, stairways, walls, bridges and other obstacles you can find outside to perform their tricks. BMX-Street riders use tires that have almost no profile to create more grip to concrete or asphalt. The pegs are used to "grind" (slide over objects using your pegs) and most of the times BMX-Street riders attach pegs to one side of their bicycles.
BMX-Street riders use a bigger than average steering wheel to tailwhip more easily. Street riders prefer a bicycle with low gearing and most of the times they don't install brakes. "Barspins" (turning the steering wheel 360 degrees while making a jump) are easier to make with a steering wheel without brakes. And finally Street pegs are made of Chromoly or a hard plastic compound.
