    Crazy Nick: A Story Told in Polaroid

    The digital camera has made everyone a photographer. I’m not entirely convinced that’s a good thing, going by the over-saturation of phone shots we are bombarded with (and feel compelled to keep up with) every fucking day of our lives. There are still artists out there, but some only think they are. Some stay true…

    Phil Rides Fixed, Up Mountains

    I find that chatting whilst riding can really be a conduit for some interesting conversations sometimes. In Episode 2 of the series “Riding Fixed, Up Mountains, With Pros” by State Bicycle Co., Phil (the Thrill) Gaimon lets us in on how he lost his virginity (thanks to a cool looking bike), the struggle to mourn…

    Pls Do Not Count This

    These “bro riding a fixie through crowded city streets” videos can often be a bit hit-or-miss. This one has the distinguishing feature of being shot in the insanely bustling cultural melting pot of Johannesburg where the bikes are steel, the skids are long and the bus-surfing is plentiful.

    Have you ever gone go-karting at those indoor tracks and thought how much fun it would be to race fixed gear bicycles around them criterium style? Neither had we, but after watching the Germans doing it, it seems like the best idea for a party disguised as a bike race ever. Bombtrack Bicycle Co’s Stefan…

    Zero To Hero

    I’ve seen enough edits of fixies being ridden with careless abandon through the urban environment to last me a lifetime (it took about three to reach my limit). I hate the way that they portray “cyclists” as underdog heroes and motor vehicles or even pedestrians as the oppressive “mainstream” enemy. However…what this guys says is…

    Besides producing insane racing, high speeds, flesh-eating crashes and busted knees, the Red Hook Criterium series also provides broad a platform for bicycle artisans to get a little crazy with the creativity on a fixed-gear canvas. Specialized have been particularly active in encouraging their in-house designers to go to town with unfettered air brushes and vivid imaginations to…

    MASH It Evan

    MASH makes watching people tear their legs off so visually appealing. The fourth segment to be released from MASH SF’s 2015 feature video is a barrage of breathtaking Californian landscapes and full gas, flat out street track silliness.
