Analog visuals put me in a trance. Great video showcasing the Affinity x Kenzo Minami collaboration bike.
Check more of Minami’s work here.
I saw these photos up on the Tokyo Fixed Gear flickr page of the recent Mini Drome event in London. That thing looks like a blast!

This frame was once in my stable, but it never got built up quite how I wanted, and it ended up collecting dust in my office. It is nice to see Jake built-up ol’ Frenchie proper! Loving those H+Son box rims too. Go check all of the photos at his blog Truly Bogus
See the old build from the archives here
For 2012 Leader is releasing a new carbon fork and a Steel frame dubbed “Heritage Edition”. I like the hydro-formed wheel cut-out and you really can’t go wrong with a steel track bike. Looking swell dudes!
Caught this pic over at Stuttgart fixed. A fender could’ve come in handy, but a muddy skunk stripe is a good look.
I came up on this bike for $500 as pictured above and ended up using it mainly for tricks since it had excellent barspin clearance. At the time (2008) there were little to no fixed freestyle specific bikes and certainly none that had geometry like this bike. It wasn’t until the frame died that I moved on to the Volume Cutter, which was seemingly the standard trick bike at the time. We’ve come quite a ways since then with negative bottom brackets, 2.0+ tires, 26″/29″ rims, sloping top tubes and wide bars.
Fixed Gear Athens has been working on a signature track frame in collaboration with framebuilder Yorgos Vogiatzis.

The FOAD crew consists of Sam Allgood, Jackson Bradshaw, Evan Service, Izik Service, Parker Thompson, Connor Weight. Good stuff all around. I like seeing mashing mixed with thrashing!
Classy track video from DK productions that really got me in the mood for some fall riding.
Looks like our friends at Deaf Pigeon are putting together an edit. Fast bikes and skids!
Time has nothing to do with it homie, you’re still killin. Jakob Santos just dropped a another banger showcasing some fine bay area shredding! He even got his family in this, check out Jesse Santos! Both Congo & Joe Mckeag killing it too! Fly out 540, Double Peg to fakie, Big Barspins, Fence ride to fakie, Rail Hops, the list goes on.. Check it out!
Got to love a good ol fashion Rail Ride! Ricardo Lino putting in work for Almond footwear. Shout outs to West Fixed for keeping it live. Correct me if I’m wrong, is Ricardo the first to do a rail ride on a 26” fixed?
Massan’s had a huge influence on me in back in the day. His style and bike control while bombing a hill is unmatched. This video from Macaframa definitely takes me back to the first time I watched Massan ride in MASH. Check it out.
Steven Jensen’s buddy just got his bike jacked. Keep an eye out for a Fuji Track Pro with riser bars and clear grips. If you see the bike, lock it up and call the local authorities.
Raleigh just sent over a link to their new Rush Hour Pro for 2012. I am loving the matte gray tones.
Full specs here.
A sneak peek at the LDG x Hurley ‘Phantom 4D’ collaboration bike.
Don’t ask how I came across these videos, just be thankful that I did. Great visuals!
