Custom Build: Brian’s Brooklyn Machine Works

Steph — Tue, 10 May 2011 20:46:58 +0000

Brian came to us a month ago with one thing on his mind: Fixed Gear Freestyle.

Jason worked with Brian to make his vision a reality–the custom built Brooklyn Machine Works Glow in the Dark Gangsta Track.

The completed build with a Selle Italia Turbo saddle, in all of its glory, hanging out by some brownstones in Boston proper.

Detail of the Brooklyn headbadge and Volume Trickster handlebars.

Brian’s running a Shadow Conspiracy Halflink chain on a Cobra crank set with Fyxation BMX pedals and Hold Fast straps.

It looks and (rides) great. Congratulations, Brian!

Snow Pile Jump

Jason — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 00:43:25 +0000

We have been busy the last few days building a new work bench in our mechanics area, but it was just SO NICE out today we had to take a little break to enjoy the weather. We grabbed a scrap piece of plywood and used our melting pile of snow in front of the shop to make a nice little kicker. Nice end to a beautiful day. Looking forward to more of these and starting Trick Night up again!

2011 Fuji Declarations have landed!

Jason — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 21:25:11 +0000

We just received our first shipment of the 2011 Fuji Declaration. We were really stoked when we saw this new complete from Fuji last year at interbike because it combines almost everything people are looking for in a basic fixed gear/ single speed into a very affordable package. Sizes XXS 43cm all the way to XXXL 61cm, sealed bearings where it counts in the hubs and bottom bracket, custom butted chromoly steal frame and fork, and if you ride it fixed no brakes it can even barspin. We have every size in stock right now except the XXS 43cm with 650 wheels which should be coming in soon from Fuji.

Superb: Visits Breakbrake17 in Taiwan

Wei Wei — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 17:44:17 +0000

Surprise pit stop in Taiwan, birth land of many a bicycle!

I had to stop in and check out our friends at Breakbrake17. I met them last year on a non work visit and discovered a flourishing fixed freestyle scene. They were such gracious host, letting me ride their bikes out every night and taking me to all the delicious food stands. So it’s only natural I had to come see them again, especially since the scene has been growing exponentially.

Their new location in Taipei is clean and conveniently located near Sogo (high end fashion district). The shop is crisp and white, with steel piped displays and a dessert fridge for all the goodies (components).

I hung out with Yang, Ken and the BB17 crew at the shop. Yang showed me their Cobra forks, type 1 and 2, which are looking badass. They have their signature “17″ cut out near the drops outs and an integrated top cap. The fork is extra wide, for those super beefy tires and the steerer tube and crown is fully molded for extra strength. I would recommend snagging one of these for anyone that’s afraid of fork snappage.

They have a great selection of freestyle bikes from Brooklyn Machine Works to Volumes. They also have a great Keirin track source and can build you up a classy NJS whip too. But the best part is their mechanic area… They make do without a bike repair stand and cut everything with an angle grinder! Here’s Ken getting at a steerer tube with the angle grinder.

If you ever find yourself in Taiwan I would drop in for their weekly rides every Friday night!

Here the rest of the photos from the trip.

SE Bikes Quadangle Fixed Prototype

Jason — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 15:57:56 +0000

SE just put one of their top riders, Marwin “The Wizard” Ou, on their prototype quadangle fixed frame to put it through its paces. Depending on those tests and feedback from consumers this model might make it into the 2012 line up.
