Bike Check – Kyle Kelley’s LaMarche PMW Track Bike!

We’ve got a very special bike check on the blog today. For starters, Kyle Kelley is a legend in the Fixed Gear and cycling community. From the Trackosaurusrex blog to Golden Saddle Cyclery to the current Allez LA shop, Kyle has played such a big role in promoting and shaping cycling culture in LA and beyond. That being said, Kyle had a custom bike made by another Fixed Gear legend by the name of Tom La Marche with Lamarche Bike Co.

Kyle has lots to say about this bike, so I’ll let him take it from here. Full gallery and writeup after the jump!

Didn’t Expect This – Tom La Marche Sim Works Photoshoot

One of the most influential riders of all time, Tom La Marche, after being away from track bikes for 10+ years, has re-emerged riding a track bike for the latest Sim Works photoshoot advertising their new stem. For those who know, this is massive news! He’s riding his own frameset via Lamarche Bike Co. of course! I wonder if we’ll be seeing more riding from him 🧐

Skream – The Planted Seed

Really great visuals on this one. The euro boys Cairns and Deythos were assigned the task of creating a high production video showing off some cool night riding and showcasing some of the nice Skream colorways. These guys are making Fixed Gear street riding look cool.

Side note, this video prompted me to look at the Skream Youtube channel and I noticed a Kyle Pagcu video from over a year ago that completely went under my radar! This video is so cool and Kyle is such a wizard with the flat combos. Funny that I don’t even think he rides for Skream anymore but you should still watch it!
