West 5 Cycles

Cycling, fixed-gear bike building and life on two wheels only

Classy Fixies

Work has geared up a notch and I’m finding that in between that, getting out riding, and procrastinating about some big bike overhauls (to deal with the all the muck gathered when riding in  too much rubbish weather!), there is less time to write blog posts.

Also a constant feature of our conversations at home is what colour scheme we should spray the old Raleigh we recently bought off Ebay for a whopping 6 pence total. See the 6 Pence Wonder. Still undecided the debate is turning towards a metallic lush orange, but wheels, tyres, saddle and handlebar tape is still up in the air. Where better to find inspiration than good ol’ FixedGearGallery which has had a smattering of excellent fixies posted recently. Below are some of my favourites:
