Tyler Johnson has a feature and a bike check in the new Fixed Mag and a few of the photos didn’t make the cut, so Jake uploaded them to his Flickr. Once again, Jake shot everything with film. Check the rest out here.
Thanks for repping man!
Oh man, this one’s great. I do agree on rule #58 but then again, I agree with most of what’s in here. Thanks for the find Tracko!
Edit: I knew I’d seen the Rules elsewhere…
The Generator looks like one slick 8-speed commuter and this new commercial from Volume is sure to generate a lot of attention for it. Looking good guys!
Urban Velo issue 29 is now available online. Check it out here for free.
Elliott Milner now rides for Royal HC and here’s his newest edit, filmed in Long Beach and Downtown LA.
Here’s the latest from Michael Chacon, plugging his site, Mike on a Bike.
Here’s the last Phillip Williams video of the year, with many more to come I’m sure.
This one line has so much style and speed. But what else would you expect from Nasty? His Durcus 1 looks slick.
Superb just posted up the new colors for their Sprint track frames. Head over to check out the other. The black looks great.
FBM bids 2011 adieu with this little video.
Last year, my top 10 fixed freestyle video list caused quite the stir. Somehow, something that’s supposed to be a fun observation turned into a pissing contest. People emailed, Tweeted and even brought it up in real life that their video should have been ranked higher. Now, with the Facebook “Like” and Tweet buttons being used so frequently, I’ve resolved those issues. Some will say that Prolly is Not Probably is already biased, so I should put my opinion out there and what I will say to that is this list has all my favorite videos of the year, in more or less the same ranking I would have put them in anyway.
Now, enough with the neck-saving intro, here’s the Prolly is Not Probably Top 10 Fixed Freestyle Videos of 2011!
If you have an iPhone and you’re not on Instagram, you really should be. Last weekend, the Golden Saddle Cyclery crew went on a Lonely Man Century and the whole day, Ty, Kyle and the GSC Twitter account was filled with great photos. Follow these guys, you won’t be sorry. Oh and I guess you could follow that Nat Champ track racer mechanic of theirs, Woody too.
Dammit guys, make that kit!
This is a really great post from Richard Sachs ATMO:
“Going back to at least the turn of this century I sensed that parts needed for the continued manufacture of my frames were becoming scarce. I had the feeling that much of what I depended upon to make my bicycles was going the way of the vinyl record. In the preceding decade, nearly everything I used in my frames was designed or made in an earlier era. The materials were dated and perhaps more important, in limited supply. By 2002 it was clear that framebuilding, at least in the traditional one-man one-frame manner, was in the margins. Few from the supply side of things would ever look at us again as potential clients. Well, I took that as a dare atmo, and I decided to become a player rather than get played.
Ten years, five lug sets, two fork crowns, two bottom bracket shells, some braze-ons, and a tube set or three later, I’m happy to add another clue to the treasure hunt. These new RS PG dropouts are in production and will be added to the above list so that that all of us can enjoy a wider range of parts with which to assemble our frames. To view more images of these dropouts, please click this link. And watch this space for the matching fronts, coming soon.”

Yesterday, as I was going through all my posts from this year, I thought to myself that I haven’t posted anything from Busyman in a while. Then, last night, I caught this sweet project on his blog. Check out more here!
Pissy and Gus? Sure, why the hell not!
Back when Two Tone ATL featured Philipp Ueberschär’s trip to the Six Day Races, he called the photo series that followed “European Touches“. Taking that as inspiration, Philipp has created a new blog focused on european cycling entitled European Touches.
Check it out and don’t miss the Six Day coverage.

I’ve been trying to post this bike all week but Damian has been trying to figure out Tumblr and has been deleting his posts as soon as they’ve been up. He’s finally got the whole set up, so head over and check out more photos of this gorgeous Fiorelli Coppi Pista at Shit is Riehl!
Fahrtwind has been around for a year now and here’s their latest video.
