Fixed Gear

Marco & Oscar – Send Saturdays 1

One of my favorite duos is back at it for a hopefully consistent new series called “Send Saturdays” where the two lads bro out and send some cool tricks. I love their dynamic and love the way Oscar captures riding and moments. Really entertaining!

Also, Pizza won the raffle for the Master bars. That shit RIGGED AF

84Kick – FIXIKA Georgy Porgy EDIT 2024

Not exactly Fixed Gear, but 84Kick just released this cool edit of Kai. If you don’t know Kai, he is a pioneer of the Fixed Freestyle movement in Japan and was featured in Bootleg Sessions 2. He’s riding a Blackmarket NSF freewheel mode in this video, but it’s still fun to watch him rip around on it and see an FGFS legend still having fun on bikes.

Wheel Talk – Doing Hoodrat Stuff With My Friends

ANOTHER ONE. Slum has been on fire with the new videos this year. We’ve got a lot of new goodness going on here. Some callouts: that intro title sequence is crispy, Slum is on a BMX stem (Not just any BMX stem, but the Sadio MTS Rocky stem. Huge fan of that), the FBZ are reunited, Snow put his pegs back on, and we’re seeing some new spots being ridden. Wheel Talk content never disappoints!

Satoshi Hashimoto – Bike Check

While Satoshi was in town for SMC 6 I pulled him aside to snag some photos of him and his Courttek. Although the setup may be a bit dated for some, it was an honor to meet him him and ride his bike. It’s set up almost exactly the way I prefer my Trick Track bikes. I have a bunch of other people’s bikes to post up from this same setup, so lookout for some more bike checks. For now, check out Satoshi’s full setup and rundown after the jump!
