Perfect for the wall...

Don't know if anyone's posted these before. Spotted in a shop window in Brighton. 'Fixie' art. Think it's all going a bit far, what's wrong with just riding the blooody things?

I'm off to buy a mountain bike.

hmm... trendy wank, for trendy wankers. (... where's this shop? How much for the one in the second picture?) Ahem.

Top end of the lanes (I think). Didn't look at prices. My girfriend liked them, which is weird because she won't let me hang my bike on the wall.

strange I have never seen these, and interesting to sell them in a city which has a total of around 15 fixed bikes and one unipack? epic market research fail

15 + 2 when I move there in June. (Fingers crossed)

These are quite well-known prints. One like 'em was used as the cover for the first The Ride journal. They are by ILoveDust. I couldn't tell you if these are rip-offs or 'official', but it would be interesting to know. They aren't particularly my bag, but they are very good IMHO.

the middle one was used for a magazine, can't remember which but is a lovely illustration really

The cover art for The Ride isn't shown above but the middle one was used inside.

if they are by i love dust then the people who did them all ride . My mate jill works there and they have a wee southsea fixed crew going !

thats my gazelle lo pro in the second photo

A copy of the second print is hanging in the cafe at the Castle.

that's what i was just about to say! hah.

Aren't they just photo's that have been shopped with a cartoon/painted picture tool? I'm not saying they're not good because I really like them, but that would explain why there are 'copies' around. Another possibility is reprints.

I see nothing wrong with art having any type of bike in them. If you like something then why not have in a picture. JimL, I bet you've probably got quite a lot of photo's, whether on your pc, camera or otherwise, of people riding and bikes. What's the difference?

Is that a euphemism?
