How disappointing, Fixie Inc. used to have good-looking bicycle, now they release the new Fixie Inc. Blackjack which is belt drive instead of chain, it now look like an Create/Republic/Unipack;
"Fixie Inc's JigSaw fastening allows the belt to be inserted into the frame’s rear triangle without bending the chainstay"
Another one is the 'budget' model, called the 'Backspin';
"The new steel-framed Backspin (main image) is aimed at riders who want to give fixed gear a try on a budget. At 850 euros (approx £730/US$1,200), it comes with toe clips, low-rise bars, a flip-flop rear hub and retro BMX saddle."
and of course, the Blackjack;
"If retro’s your thing, then the new Black Jack is definitely going to hit the spot with its gloss and matt black finish and polished stainless steel highlights. Redesigned to set it apart from its younger brother the Peacemaker, it has a new Seagull handlebar, threaded headset and a height adjustable, polished quill stem."
