After moving on the Cinelli I was on the hunt for something a bit cheaper. Here is what I ended up with…

Ralph built this bike up with the help of the guys at Capital Cycles.

Built super burly, it was originally a GT 29er. Ralph made a few changes to it and now uses it as his trick bike.

While away in Italy last November/December I picked up a wee new toy which has been under wraps… until now!

I’m always changing something on my bikes. Here is my current bike. I think it will probably be for sale really soon.

I had to mill out the rear drop-outs for extra chain tension but so far she’s rollin’ sweet.

The old school BMX cranks are awesome as is the 42×18 ratio for trickability …and yes, she is 700c barspinable :) Total cost: $42.95

Tonights ride was a little different. Ralph got his new bike a little while ago [Bike check on that soon] and he managed to find a really nice quiet tricking spot, with some really cool features. The Wellington Fixed Trick scene seems to consist of only Ralph at the moment but we try out best…

So just a quick post. Been riding lonewolf steez a bit lately! Let’s get together tonight rain or shine and have a skid and a beer folks! P.s- Buying forks with a too short steerer is the best FAIL in a while! hahaha
p.p.s- this is the moment when things go bad. Nice pick I found over at Prolly.Tomnosefail-thumb

DSCF3313Yesterday was a pretty good day, despite Wellingtons wind. I rode around to Days Bay/Eastbourne in my lunch break. It’s a nice ride this one, all flat, quite fast and hardly any traffic on the road, Plus there are plenty of side streets that head up the hill for some short entertainment.

With two of the most influential fixed free riders in Japan at the Moment (Tom Lamarche and Ed wonka) as well as the quest for inspiration on a new bike I’m working on, Ive been trawling a lot of Japanese Fixed footage. This Video shows how killer those cats are becoming  as well as another way to look at building a fixed gear bike for this style of riding.

Who’s got thoughts on riding a 29r Frame with 700c wheels?
