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!
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!
Shot these a little over a year ago for CJTY promo stuff. We had a rare day where almost all the boys got together for a session. More projects in the works, stay tuned…
If you’re in the market for bars on the taller side, 2 Wheel Gang aka Blocboi Fame just dropped his first run of bars! These bad boys clock in at 7.5″ tall and 30″ wide, they come in 4 sick colors too. Check em’ out here!
Premiering tomorrow: my trick track edit for Master Bike Co! 10.15.21 at 7pm PST. Watch it here on the Youtube channel, see you there!
More photos from our Back to Track comp! This gallery comes from David Garduño, thanks dude! Check out his socials here.
My good friend and incredible content producer Dave Rubie showed up to the comp and snagged these great photos. Full gallery after the jump and make sure to tag him @Daverubie if you’re throwing these on Instagram!
More photos and full event recap video coming this week!
This past weekend on Saturday we held our highly anticipated BACK TO TRACK trick track competition. It’s the first trick track specific competition that’s happened since around 2009 and it was a major success! To give some info about how the day went, we started at our original spot and people started showing up. It was the PERFECT spot. Basketball court, poles to spin off, and a bank next to it to do tricks on.
Almost immediately, a park official came up and told us we all had to leave. It was a scramble to find a new spot and get everyone there, but we ended up at a park in long beach that worked out perfectly (sign of relief). We had about 50 people total and the energy was great. With the resurgence of Trick Track riding, I think people were excited to have an event specifically for it. We’re gonna be dropping a bunch of photos from the day this week as well as a video recap on our Youtube channel, so keep an eye out for that. If you didn’t make it out, I highly recommend you make it out next year cause it was a blast. Thanks to everyone who came, supported, rode, and everything in between.
