On Friday, Sussex police arrested two suspects - a 12-year-old boy and a youth aged 19 - on suspicion of grievous bodily harm in Greenwich, South East London.
The 19-year-old was also arrested on suspicion of threatening behaviour and dangerous cycling.
The two arrests followed an investigation into the viral video of the smirking youths performing wheelies and tricks in the supermarket.
The GBH allegation relates to a victim who fell during a confrontation with the bike yobs on the nearby seafront, breaking a wrist and a rib.
Superintendent Julia Pope said: “We have made it very clear that we will not tolerate this type of behaviour.
"We have been working tirelessly to track down this group, with the assistance of the Metropolitan Police.
"Our investigation is continuing and we hope to make further arrests."
YOBS ARRESTED
The video showed the yobs laughing with excitement, as one member faces the camera and said: "Yo we're riding through Asda right now!"
As his pals narrowly miss skidding into shoppers, he can be heard shouting "Uh oh".
But one furious shopper shouts: "They don't even care", prompting another youth to laugh as he cycles standing on the pedals to get more speed.
They continue to laugh, cutting corners through aisles until one young boy is seen wrestling with an elderly woman.
His pals shout "get off him, get off him", but other shoppers try to block them with their trolleys.
The boy suddenly leaves the OAP and turns to a man in front of him, to punch him in the chest.
A shopper shouts with fear: "Security please to the fresh aisle!"
Their antics in Asda was just a two minute segment of the 24-minute video posted on YouTube with the title "The Maddest Day Ever In Brighton".
At one point, they weaved in and out of cars in a busy road.
A man shouted: "You little chavvy f***ers... go learn how to use the f***ing road."
But a youth replies: "You're calling us chavvy? You live in Brighton."

As more people in the store tried to block them, the group tried to speed out of the store, while stealing biscuits and cans of Red Bull as they left.
Outside out, the youth filming shouts to the camera, "Crazy! In and out of Asda real quick. That was actually sick.
"Make sure you like and subscribe yeah?"
Their YouTube channel has 84,000 subscribers and the video has now been watched more than 20,000 times.
