Fixated Vigorous Build + Ride
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!
FIXATED FRAME FIRST LOOK
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!
FIXATED COMP 3 ANNOUNCED
Fixated Comp 3 is ON! Ritchie with Fixated out in the Netherlands is back for the 3rd year in a row to put on one of the biggest comps of the year on August 24th. It’s gonna be a good one, save the date! Keep up with Fixated on IG for location announcements.

Ruff Vegas Trip – Ditch Session
After SMC 7 last year, I went on a spontaneous trip to Vegas with the Ruff team along with Fixated’s Ritchie and Youri. It was chaotic and I paid the price at work after the trip, but it was so much fun and we got a lot of cool clips.
We went to this famous ditch spot (which we all were also at about 10 years ago), got some clips, and snapped some flicks!
Garageboyz 8
Crispy just dropped Garageboyz 8, my favorite Fixed Gear video series. This has all of our favorite overseas players with some really really good riding from everyone. From the filming, the camera choices, the editing, and the riding, I’m loving the way Crispyn is putting these together. The amount of views these get is honestly criminal and if you’re reading this and not clicking play, then you deserve jail.
