After months of teasing, the EU made Fixated Vigorous frames are out now! The frames come in 3 colors and are built with incredibly high quality to Ritchie’s specs. Youri and Ritchie have been testing and shredding the geo for months and it looks like a super comfy bike, offering a slightly bigger seat tube than the other 26″ frames on the market. For the 26″ European riders looking to not spend a fortune on shipping from the US, your time has come! Here’s what Ritchie has to say about the frames:
“After a long wait, we are happy to announce the Fixated Vigorous frame, handcrafted in the EU with a focus on durability and style, delivering strength, snappyness, and versatility.”
THE DAY HAS COME. The long awaited Master Courttek V2 is here for pre order! Along with this news and 6 colorways we’re introduced to the brand new Master 2025 Trick Track team lineup which includes:
“The wait is over. The Master Bike Co Courttek is back! For the V2 we have reinforced the seat tube cutout, changed to integrated headset and have added 2 new sizes to the lineup (size 48 and 58). Additionally, the frameset can be purchased in brakeless or v-brake configurations. Frames now come with matching 700c chopstick forks as well as headset and seatpost collars included. Our team riders put in countless hours riding and tweaking our factory samples to perfect the frame’s geometry and durability in order to create the ultimate tricktrack riding experience.
Every element of the frame has been carefully crafted with intention and precision. The Courttek frame can accommodate tires up to 45c+ with ample barspin clearance, and it features one of the shortest rear ends on the market, ensuring exceptional maneuverability and control. While the Courttek’s styling and design pay homage to the classic track frames of the past, it has been expertly engineered to address the shortcomings and design flaws of earlier bike models.
From the materials used to the carefully designed geometry, every aspect of the Courttek frame has been selected and crafted with the rider’s experience in mind. The result is a highly responsive and versatile frame that is perfect for riders who demand the best in both performance and style.
700c Wheel size, Full Heat Treated Chromoly, 10mm (3/8”) dropouts, 120mm rear hub spacing, English threaded bb, 27.2 Seatpost, Includes Master 700c Chopstick fork, Includes Master seat post clamp and integrated headset
It will take roughly 3 months from the close of the preorder to manufacture and ship these bikes. Each frameset will ship individually so you will not see any cost savings for shipping by combining orders. Preorder will be open from Sunday Sept 14- Sept 28.”
Alongside the 5 signature colors is a special edition woodland camo colorway, making for 6 colors total in this drop. Once this pre-order is done you will not be able to get a Courttek V2, so now is your only time! Snag one here!
Ritchie recently built up his new prototype Fixated Vigorous build! The bike turned out sick with the raw to black fade and his component choice is on point. Filming is Crispy too. Regular updates on the release of the frame can be found on the Fixated IG!
This week Fixated teased a first look at an upcoming “Vigorous” frame in development. We don’t have details yet, but the Euro scene is going to benefit heavily from a more local buying option. I’m excited to see more. Word is Ritchie’s building it this week, so stay tuned for that on the Fixated IG!

Volume just upped a beautiful new Patina colorway for the classic Volume Cutter frame! While I’ve not been loving all the special edition colorways they’ve been dropping (splatter isn’t my thing), I think this is easily their best special edition colorway yet. I love rusty looking bikes so this is a great gritty choice. More details here!
Volume keeping the new colors coming. This run has the Thrasher available in an iridescent sparkle half tone with the “Prismatic Universe” colorway and the Cutter in a Spiderman style Red/Blue half tone. I’m really digging that sparkle on both frames. Check them out here!
