Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

This was outside a sake bar I had a few drinks in at Asakusa station, Tokyo.

Apparently the owner is a well known local messenger.

Apparently his bike needs to jog on to anti

If you can't handle the rad get off the street...

GB rider on a Planet X?

Despite the brake that bike is pure radness.

are alter stems cool or just anti?

Saw big hero 6 yesterday...serious slave action

Yellow dale and bianchi are spot on

Bianchi is absolutely bang on, track training bike though

Agreed, bianchi is perfect. Nice gumwalls

are paselas still the only sensible gumwall for fixieskidding?

@apollo If by sensible you mean they won't explode after one skid, then yes.

bianchi is porn-worth

BLB Black Mambas are the best i think.

Resist nomads are decent if you can fit 28c in.

just be a baller and use open corsas

are paselas still the only sensible gumwall for fixieskidding?

I was just this morning marvelling at the abuse mine have taken all winter.

I skid on Veloflex Records, costs a lot and you have to bring 8 spare tyres on a ride but worth it for the sweet rolling resistance.

if by the best you mean the worst tyres ever made then yes.

i use em everyday, never had a problem.

• really difficult if not impossible to mount (on certain rims. Would love to see someone try to put them on stan's)
  
• rolls really badly
  
• heavy
  

I guess you mean the folding ones are hard to mount? The wired ones are pleasingly sloppy to put on.

The other two things are negated by the skid resistance factor of 11. This is HHSB.

I have Veloflex Masters on my clincher TT rims and they roll fast as heck and weigh 190 grams. I once had to change two punctures on a 50.
