The football icon’s doppelganger- real name Alex Jumelin – was tasked with entertaining spectators for 12 days during the Olympics.
And he does share a striking facial and stylish resemblance to Beckham.
The urban cyclist stepped up the mark sporting a casual white t-shirt and Beckham’s soft spiky haircut of 2006.
Jumelin, 46, also has an identical dark beard and two tattoo sleeves down to his finger tips – similar to the ex-Manchester United star.
And people took to social media with their observations about the likeness.
One X user wrote: “Nearly 50 years old and David Beckham did this on a BMX, he is HIM!”
While a second said: “Why didn’t you tell me, Beckham is now doing BMX.”
A third added: “No way! He looks like Beckham.”

While another replied: “That’s one good lookalike, got me there!”
A fifth said: “Beckham being an insanely good freestyle BMX rider was something I did not expect to see. Sadly, it is also not him.”
Jumelin is a Paris-born cyclist who is a four-time BMX Flat world champion.
The 46-year-old has been encouraging visitors and locals in his home city to get active through cycling during the last fortnight.
France went one-two-three in men’s BMX racing with Joris Daudet crossing the finish line first to take gold with a time of 31.422.
It marked the first all-French podium in a hundred years, since the Olympics were last held here in Paris in 1924.
