Tour Of Singapore

Tour of Singapore 2010 from duraath on Vimeo.

southernfixed and yellowbikecompany rode together for the Tour of Singapore 2010 last 11th December and we had a lot of fun together.

Really funny for two of the riders to be so in the lead that they waited until they fell asleep for an hour. Oh yeah, they slept on the grass at the side of the road. Where was everyone? Eating dinner (at 12midnight) in Changi area. LOL!

Big ups for them Singapore guys for making this happen.

Monowheel : A new breed of bicycle?

Although the concept isn't new and various monocycles of this kind had already been built, it's unlikely you'll find one for sale, even in special stores. That's what happened to british designer Ben Wilson, who, consequently, decided to build his own one-wheeled vehicle, which he simply named Monowheel.

Like many others, the Monowheel is powered by pedals, however, in this case, the rider sits within the wheel, in an almost lied down position. It's not a very confortable position, but this is not an utilitary vehicle of any kind, merely a demonstrative one, ordered for the "XXI Century Man" exhibition in Tokyo.

level's gold plated frame?

what do you think about this beauty? lovely ain't it?no websites, no blog...just plain loveliness...

Macaframa x Mike Giant x Raleigh Bicycles

San Francisco based Fixed gear crew Macaframa have been busy designing a new fixed gear bicycle with bicycle company Raleigh Bicycles. The bicycle is based on the first track bike model made by Raleigh and features vintage traditional decal. The bike’s burgundy frame is accented by white and blue stripes on the seat tube and down tube. Proud of its heritage, the San Francisco insignia’s have been incorporated into the graphics by Mike Giant, who is also from the Bay Area. Fans will need to wait another month or so as these are scheduled for release around November 2010. photos via: Prolly is not probably

NATOOKE : First Fixed Gear Bike Shop in China

Yes, here it is: The first bicycle shop in China focused on fixed gear bikes! The logo is a green banana and the name is NATOOKE.



This store is dedicated to urban cycling. You will not find a bike with gears in this shop, so no road bikes nor any mountain bikes. All bicycles are single speed and mainly have a fixed back wheel, meaning no ability to coast. Like the bikes used in the velodrome these are track bikes with horizontal dropouts in the back end of the frame to be able to adjust the chain tension. This is extremely suitable for cycling in the flat and nicely paved Beijing urban city. The shop has all the different parts required to build up a fixed gear bike like the fixed gear hubs, flipflop hubs, cogs, lock rings, rims, tires, seat posts, saddles, stems, handle bars, handle bar grips, chains, cranks, chain rings, pedals, cages, toe clips, straps… Each customer can chose what brand, what style and which color he prefers so that we can put together that one-of-a-kind unique bike.

This shop also has a huge selection on urban cycling accessories, like T-shirts, lights, bags, reflective bag covers, anti-pollution masks and other things related to cycling in the metropolitan areas.

The NATOOKE store is even more unique: It is the world’s first shop dedicated to fixed gear bikes and juggling equipment! You can find anything here around the topic of juggling: Different sizes, weights and colors of juggling balls, glow balls, contact balls, acrylics, juggling rings, juggling clubs, devil sticks, diabolos, poi, fire juggling equipment, staff, yo-yos, frisbees, rola bolas (also known as balancing boards) and many more fun toys to play with. This is the best juggling equipment that you can get in all of China. It is mainly imported from Europe.



This fixed gear bike and juggling store is located in the center of Beijing city in the trendy new hutong called Wudaoying. That is right next to the North Second Ring Road just West of the famous Lama Temple. There are 2 subway lines that have a station here as well as many bus lines. So if you do not yet have a bike you can easily come by using public transport. Here is a map of the location of the NATOOKE shop indicated by the small green banana:
