DAMN. Okay, this might actually be the longest video that’s been released in Fixed Freestyle history. My guy Satoshi legit just dropped a real movie length video. There is WAY too much to call out for this video, but I watched it front to back and there are great moments, tricks, personalities, and everything in between from start to finish. Sit down and enjoy, and thank Satoshi for bringing us so much high quality content.

Netherlands 35mm Gallery – Lifestyle Shots
Got film back from our Netherlands trip! These are only a handful of shots as the rest of them are being saved for a later project (as well as most of the real camera footage). Lifestyle shots from misc spots and some of the comp. Stay tuned for more!
Joshua Price – Ride Bikes
This goes hard! Sick mostly solo filmed edit from Eugene’s own Joshua Price (with cameos from Sara Billdt). He’s been really climbing the ranks lately and I love the work ethic. His passion for this stuff is contagious.

DURCUS ONE STYLIN’ COMPLETE
I can’t believe I missed this one! I’ve been seeing teasers floating around for a brand new Stylin’ complete and totally missed that they dropped in August!
If you aren’t aware of the history, the original Japanese Durcus One Stylin’ was an early 2010 trick specific frame ridden by some of the best back in the day including Teppei, Jakob Santos, Marco, and many more. Durcus One has decided to bring it back in 2024 as a complete bike! Complete bikes are a huge hole in our market, so it’s great to see this bike being produced.
With tried and true geometry and quality we know and love from Durcus One, this certainly isn’t just an entry level beginner bike. Big tire clearance, quality components, and light weight, this is definitely the bike to recommend someone next time they ask if a complete bike exists. Here are some of the details:
“The STYLIN’ is designed for enjoying both cruising and active riding.
The frame and fork are made of 4130 CR-MO to support active riding.
In addition, the fork column is made in one piece by CNC machining, just like a BMX, ensuring light weight and rigidity.
The standard tire size is 700 x 35C.
Up to 40c can be installed (not possible depending on the manufacturer and model), allowing you to choose tires according to various road conditions.
Although it is a single-speed and simple body, it is a tough bike that can handle everything from everyday commuting to active riding such as tricks.”
Available in Matte Black, Grey, and Matte Trans Navy. For full specs, check out the product page here.
Lucky for us, W Base DOES IN FACT ship worldwide! For worldwide shipping details, visit their worldwide shipping info page.
The Stylin’ frame is also available as just a frameset! Which funny enough makes it one of the only 700c framesets now available on the market. Full frame specs here

Ed Wonka Memorial Ride
It’s still really hard to believe. Last week was one of the toughest weeks the Fixed Gear community has had to endure. We lost a legend, an innovator, a huge personality, and a good person, Edward Wonka Laforte. Mike Schmitt is hosting a ride in his memory in Brooklyn this Saturday. If you’re in the vicinity, you should really consider going.

- To compete, register here
We’ve decided to throw the FGFS event at a humble skatepark in Anaheim called Schweitzer! The skatepark allows for creativity and has a bit of terrain for everybody. The hits aren’t super obvious which in my opinion, will make for some fun takes on the park and different looking runs from everybody. Along with all of that, there is plenty of parking, grass and shade to hang out in, and the park is always empty.
For the Trick Track event, we’ve decided to host it at a very famous ditch spot in Long Beach. The bank will allow for people to go into fakie easily, there’s tons of space to work with, it’s much easier to get to than last year’s event, and you can even jump the bank to bank if you’re feeling ballsy!
It’s also important to note that this is not a city-approved event, which always runs the risk of being shut down. If this happens, we will refund all entry fees.
If you’re competing, please pre register here. It helps us with organization! Also, you’ll be charged $10 instead of $5 if you register day of.
See you all there!!
