Fixed Gear, Fixed Wheel, Fixie, Track Bike, Tarck Bike, Bici da Pista, Pisuto, Pisto, Velo de Piste, Pignon Fixé. No matter what you call it, if the drivetrain is fixed & there's only one gear - we love to ride it like we stole it.

Ass Saver
Ass Saving Techniques from Ass Savers on Vimeo.
Could this possibly be the most stupidest thing with the most stupidest name ever? I'm not saying that it doesn't do what it is supposed to do but still. Come on?!
Edit.
And for all yo'all DIY -spirited people out there, Kyttyrä shows you how to do it:

Amazing photo, taken by Jesse. What does this tell us about the spread of the global fixed gear culture? And hey, remember this?

iS tHIS 4 REAL!?
This awesome edit reminds me that I completely forgot to mention that that previous attempt failed because the guys ran out of money, or got bored, or just decided to stay in Denver drinking brewskies and smoking some dank nugs or whatever.

Mark Ronson wants yo' biek!
"Bikes needed as props for new Mark Ronson video
The 'extras' list ... consists of about 20 non-specific bikes that are good looking, stylish and in decent condition for crowd scenes. There's unlikely to be any budget for the use of these.
...
And in case you're wondering, this is all genuine, above board and definitely NOT an elaborate ruse to steal lots of nice bikes!"

OT: My Hood
I've yet to understand what the hell stonga.com is about but 'stonga' means 'handle bars', among other things, in finnish. But what's more those dudes are operating right on my turf. I ride on those streets every day. It's grim out there...

"Redfoot: MONSTERZ CREW (Cinelli Version)"
Saw this over at Prolly's and I still don't get the deal with these plastic toys, oh sorry, "urban vinyl" figures. I mean WTF, I used to love my Star Wars figures and all but I was kid back then. Whatever, rant over. If you dig these, be my guest, just don't choke on those small parts, ok?
Also, this collabo is the second attempt, the first time they did without Cinelli's consent and when the Italians found out about this, no doubt via teh blogs, the first series had to be pulled but now it's apparently all official.

'FIX explained'
I'm loving this. Taken from a Finnish major tabloid-newspaper. Explanation of a FIX bicycle, all good, even mentions track bikes and skidding as the stopping method in there and all on-the-point but then it says: "Fix can reach speeds up to 40-50 km/h while the maximum speed of normal bicycle is approximately 25-30 km/h."
Whoa! ;)
Thanks to TSMO for posting the clip.
