WeThePeople (WTP), a prominent name in the realm of BMX bikes, dominates our 2023 roundup of the most lavish BMX models. Renowned for their superior craftsmanship, WTP's latest offerings continue to impress.

The 2023 WTP range features diverse bike categories: Icon Series, Pro Series, Elite Series, Alpha Series, and Special Series. The Icon, Pro, and Elite lines include multiple models, each escalating in price and sophistication, catering to the seasoned rider. The Alpha Series is tailored for young enthusiasts, while the Special Series encompasses unique retro designs and bikes with larger wheels. The WTP Envy, part of the Elite Series, stands out as the pinnacle model, surpassing others like the Battleship and Revolver, which are also detailed in this article.

Many riders skilled enough or financially equipped for these high-end BMX bikes often lean towards custom-made or self-built options. Thus, producing such costly bikes is somewhat risky, as the intended market may not always be in pursuit of a complete bike.

Personally, I find the technical jargon around frame materials somewhat baffling. With 4130 Chromoly tubing becoming a norm, discerning frame quality has become more complex. The Envy, however, boasts a high-tensile Sanko tubeset with features like tapered stays, dual gussets, and integrated chain tensioners, setting it apart from typical complete bike offerings. The careful construction extends to WTP's forks and bars, rivaling custom-built BMX bikes in quality.

Where some manufacturers cut corners on minor components, WeThePeople stands apart. They avoid the common tactic of using unnamed or novel parts to reduce costs, ensuring the Envy model remains top-tier in every aspect.

The Envy is akin to a concept car from leading auto manufacturers — a symbol of WeThePeople's disregard for cost in pursuit of showcasing the zenith of BMX design and what can be achieved when budget is no constraint.
