Not BMX-- they were made completely of solid metal (even the seats) and were very "clunky". A lot of kindergartens had them for the kids to use at recess.
Answer
Hm. There was no such thing as a commercially produced mountain bike until about 1985, so I'm going to assume that is not what you mean.
The predecessor of a mountain bike was called a "clunker" which were made out of older balloon-tired bikes. Then there was the "lightweight" which included a variety of different bikes including the Schwinn Varsity, many different 24" and 26" wheeled bikes with single speed, 3 speed, 5 speed and 10 speed... some even had 12 speed!
Of course, there was the 20" bike which included BMX bikes and those called by a variety of names including "high rise", "spyder" and "Sting Ray" models.
All of the bikes of this era and prior were heavy compared to today, but in my opinion much more care was taken to machine and assemble them which makes some of those 30 and 40 pound bikes MUCH friendlier and more efficient than many 20 pounders today.

How can a college kid make some quick cash?
Summer's D
Guys, there are a lot of things that I really want to purchase. For example, Iâve got a coupon from Gamestop that will let my buy Assassinâs Creed 1, 2, and Brotherhood for $50. Not bad, right? But I donât have $50. And the coupon expires August 7th.
I also need to buy a pair of costume pirate boots from Amazon by mid-August.
Now, Iâm a poor college student. I donât have a job (yet) despite all my efforts to find one. I know that there are alternative ways to make some cash quick, but I need help and suggestions.
No, âprostitutionâ isnât a funny or clever answer.
Answer
Why not consider picking up dog droppings as a part of your own business? You can earn upwards of $20 an hour, and all you need are a few tools a bicycle, and perhaps a bicycle trailer. This article talks about it and how a woman in Colorado quit her management job to do it.
