Bike Check – Kyle Kelley’s LaMarche PMW Track Bike!
We’ve got a very special bike check on the blog today. For starters, Kyle Kelley is a legend in the Fixed Gear and cycling community. From the Trackosaurusrex blog to Golden Saddle Cyclery to the current Allez LA shop, Kyle has played such a big role in promoting and shaping cycling culture in LA and beyond. That being said, Kyle had a custom bike made by another Fixed Gear legend by the name of Tom La Marche with Lamarche Bike Co.
Kyle has lots to say about this bike, so I’ll let him take it from here. Full gallery and writeup after the jump!

FGFS + TRICK TRACK BUYER’S GUIDE 2025
The time has come! If you’re looking to build yourself a fixed gear trick bike, you’ve come to the right place.
The long awaited tri-annual buyer’s guide has emerged. In this article, we’re going to break down your buying options as of now for FGFS and Trick Track products. Availability will vary depending on when you’re looking at this article, but we’ll do our best to foreshadow the market. Let’s dive in!
COURTTEK FGFS BIKE CHECK
Realized I never posted any pics of my Courttek build while I had it in FGFS mode! Riding it like this was really fun. Completely different experience than with my skinny tires and bars. Breakdown after the jump.
Ruff Sleeper Prototype Build
I recently built up a 26″ Ruff Sleeper prototype and took some pics a while ago but accidentally deleted them, so I took bae out for a date at Newport Pier and retook some pictures (which actually turned out better than the previous ones). This is the most hyped I’ve ever been on a bike, just look at this thing of beauty (them welds though). Look out for production frames coming sooner than later, more photos after the jump!
Fresh Bombtrack Build
Recently got a new Bombtrack Divide built up, so naturally I took it to the beach to take some pictures. I’m real stoked on how clean this bike looks and how dialed it feels, it’s been about 3 years since I’ve gotten a fresh wheelset built up. (and you can see I already broke a spoke) Also stoked on how these pictures came out, more after the jump.
