MARK YOUR CALENDARS. A small batch of Courttek V2’s will be available again on November 14th, 9am PST. This will be your last chance to get the greatest Trick Track frame of all time, so good luck!

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!

Speaking of Resist, Volume just dropped a limited edition florescent pink + black colorway for the new Volume Thrasher! This color goes crazy (at no additional cost too). Pick one up here!

Sad news for the scene, but the Master store is shutting it’s hypothetical doors on Setember 4th for an indefinite amount of time. This isn’t forever as Master says they still plan on launching a Courttek V2 and other parts, but for the time being you will not be able to buy any more Master parts, so I highly suggest you stock up now and buy some stuff.

The new batch of 26″ Master Hightek frames (dropping Dec. 2nd 3pm PST) has been revealed! These colors are looking absolutely NUTS. Probably some of the craziest colors a production batch of frames has ever offered. Available will be:
Jimmy Watcha – Grimey Gold
Miguel Zendejas – Clearest Blue
Matt Dizon – Cerebral Lavender
Gus Molina – Faded Freight
Marco Marquez – Ghvst Rider





Which one is your favorite?
This might be old news to some of you, but I wanted to wait till I got some c r i s p y pictures of all the new products. The 2023 Volume + Resist line is HERE. A lot of us have been dreaming for this day to come and I actually still can’t believe it’s here.
Available on this first (and certainly not the last) drop are Thrasher frames, Cutter frames, Resist pivotal saddles, seatposts, seatclamps, and tires. The purple Thrasher and white Cutter are available at any of your local bike shops who carry Volume products while the gold Cutter and pink Thrasher are exclusively available on the Volume / Resist website. Only 15 of each size were made in the website exclusive colors.
These dudes were nice enough to shoot me a Thrasher frame so look out for my build with that soon. In the meantime you can grab some items from this drop on the Resist website HERE



















If there’s one thing that’s certain in this world, it’s that Destroy Bikes = quality. Here we get a first look at the new 26″ 2023 Destroy Unicorn Killer Comps and may I say, these look absolutely beautiful. Unique paint jobs, USA made, geometry on point. While these may be on the steeper end of the market at $600, you won’t find this kind of craftsmanship anywhere else. Order one today HERE!
Here’s what Destroy had to say plus the dirty details on these frames:
“We are introducing the UNICORN KILLER COMP for below average height riders and those seeking a smaller frame for technical riding.
With the idea always being that the UNICORN KILLER COMP would be put though constant torture we complimented this frame with one of our strongest rear ends and dropouts that fit 14mm axels.

This is WILD. Volume Bikes making Fixed Gears… in 2023! While Epic already broke the news, here’s an exclusive high res look at the frames that Volume will be dropping in a couple weeks. They’ll be re-releasing the Cutter and the Thrasher. Essentially a V7 Cutter and a V3 Thrasher. I think they’re just testing the waters a bit with the market, so it looks like they’re just dropping these colorways for now in limited quantities. I’m digging that purple a lot.
From what I’ve heard, the Cutter is looking to fit 45c tires just like the V6, but with unchanged track style geometry. So that’s pretty cool news. This isn’t all that Volume and Resist are cooking up, so keep your head on a swivel for more info.
Also look out for a chance to win one of these frames as a raffle prize for our upcoming Suck My Comp 6 competition!




Kareem just announced that THIS FRIDAY (June 9th) Master will be restocking Courttek frames and forks. As revealed in the last episode of the pod, I believe it will only be Large (56cm) frames, but maybe I’m wrong, so I would recommend checking out the drop anyways. For the quickest updates on this, follow Master on IG here!

We all know FGFS bikes are unfortunately tricky to source parts for, so this is probably our most anticipated article of the year. I present to you the extensive FGFS Buyer’s Guide of 2022!
In this post i’ll list options that are currently available to buy, as well as options that may be out of stock at the time you’re reading but will be back in stock eventually. Let the list commence!
