DREAM BIKE BUILD – VOLUME THRASHER V1
I recently built up my young self’s 2010 mid school FGFS dream bike: the Volume Thrasher V1. Deacon and Pizza joined me to help build it up and then we went to film some tricks at the local parking lot. Hope you enjoy this video as much as I’m enjoying this bike! (Probably not)
Marco Marquez Bike Check
Jackson New Bike Day Vlog
Although this footage is actually old (he’s currently riding a different Ruff frame), Jackson made a little new bike day video showing off his previous cool green Ruff Sleeper build! Cool tricks go down after the build and we see a lot of his dog, so overall a very fun watch!
Beautiful Bike Check – Ismael’s Leader Shadow
El Calao Bike Check + Riding
Hard to tell exactly whats going on in this video given the language barrier, but we got some solid park shred from Colombia’s El Calao + a bike check towards the end.
New Bike Day: Deacon’s Cutter V5
Although the frame came out in 2010, Deacon managed to find a BRAND NEW Volume Cutter V5 in the wild and snagged it for himself. He decided to celebrate this monumental fixie achievement by building it up with 100% brand new parts and let me say, the result is absolutely beautiful. Look out for some content of Deacon riding this bad boy soon and click read more to see the whole gallery!
Current Build: Ruff Bike Co. Prototype
If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll have noticed that the whole Ruff team mysteriously switched over to some new black frames that nobody has said anything about. Well me being the fixie journalist that I am, I am here to BREAK THE SILENCE AND BE THE WHISTLEBLOWER THAT YOU DESERVE! BIG FIXIE DOESN’T WANT YOU TO HEAR ABOUT THIS.
Jk, they’re just some new prototypes that we’ve all been testing out. What’s different? Tighter geometry and less weight mostly. Maybe some other technical jargon that I’m not sure about. I can confidently say this geometry is the best I’ve felt though and I’m excited for productions to run on them some day (who knows with the way production is these days). Anyways, here’s some pics of my bike I snagged while out in Atlanta, when it still looked new (ish).
More photos after the jump!
