  • We get namechecked in the latest CTC mag. They've got an article on fixed bikes in London and it categorises the different types of riders.

    Here's our crew:

    Hipsters
    Many hipsters are students or in creative jobs like graphic design. They are to be found in the uber-fashionable Shoreditch area of East London, dressed in skinny jeans, with cut-down handlebars to match and a pair of candy-coloured deep-profile Velocity rims, mounted on fancy hubs. They even have their own fixed-wheel cycling forum: www.londonfgss.com
    Riding: bicycle polo, tricks competitions
    Where to get the kit: Brick Lane Bikes
    Pretty accurate?

    There's also one bloke in the article who says: "[I bought my fixie because] it goes with my Apple and Muji products" which made me laugh :-)
