Yesterday it was announced that 29er legend and fixed gear veteran Corey San Agustin is officially riding for Ruff Bike Co! Big come up on both ends. Corey is personally one of my favorite riders these days. Always keeps things fun and interesting. Now the question is, does this mean he’ll switch to 26″ or will Ruff make him a 29er frame? Stay tuned to find out.
Also this photo by Matt is so so so sick. Stay tuned for Corey’s edit dropping hopefully soon!
The bests bars in the game, the Ruff GC bars, are currently in stock in 6.5″ rise! Available in black and chrome. These always go fast so if you’ve been looking for new bars i’d hop on these ASAP!
The much sought after Destroy Omen frame’s predecessor is just about ready to launch! Omen V2’s are now up for pre order. I’d recommend snagging one of these if you can, cause we all know that they’ll go quick. More details here!
You read that right, Suck My Comp is officially BACK ON! After a 2 year hiatus thanks to covid, Suck My Comp 5 is taking place this November 19th in good ol’ Long Beach at Mcbride skatepark. FGFS events are few and far between, so I highly suggest you make it out.
If you have an FGFS frame sponsor, you will automatically be placed into the “PRO” division.
“PRO” winners will take home cash while “AM” winners will take home prizes.
All entry fees go directly into the pot for the pro division winners to take home.
We will also be contributing extra $$$ from our pockets as a pot bonus.
There will be multiple sub events that are free to enter to get everyone involved!
Time: 10AM Pacific time
Date: November 19th, 2022
Location: Mcbride Skatepark, 1550 Martin Luther King Jr Ave, Long Beach, CA 90813
If you plan on competing, I would highly recommend pre-registering here. It helps us organize better plus it’s cheaper for you. If that isn’t an option for you though, you can register day-of for $10.
Would recommend bringing a chair if you’re just spectating.
Please be on time. We will have a 30 minute grace period to allow you to show up, but we will start without you if you aren’t present.
Social media algorithms are pretty messed up these days, so please please please help spread the word and lets make this weekend a good old fashioned fixie freestyle palooza! See you in November!
First of all, i’ve been going IN on the Fixed Gear Archive youtube channel. So go subscribe to that for fixie history goodness. Second of all, I wanted to post this old Boothby edit cause it really inspired me back in the day. On a big 700c bike doing flawless 360s, catching his barspins, and linking some beautiful lines. Respect your elders and always remember that Boothby was / is one of the best. #boothbyallday
A fresh New York monthly summer series has emerged thanks to NY community figurehead @brokeshutter. This monthly trick event will take place in Brooklyn and will crown a king of New York every month! If you can go, please do! Cause we need more events like this and when they do happen, we need to make them pop off.
A rider out in the Philippines named Onile recently hosted a bike jam for his birthday which included some FGFS and Trick Track action! Turnout looked great and looked like a good time all around. Congrats to the homie Kyle for taking 1st in Trick Track and Irish Santiago for taking 1st in FGFS!
