Fixed Gear Videos and Galleries
One of the biggest draws to joining the fixed gear community is the customization that folks are doing with their bikes nowadays. Fixed gear owners are proud of their rides, particularly those who converted their bike themselves or put a lot of time and energy into jazzing it up. That having been said, we’ve decided to put together a nice sampling of fixed gear videos and galleries for your viewing pleasure. If you’re on the fence about getting a fixie or souping up the one you have, maybe these images will help you decide to get on it…

You’ll notice in the following videos that a lot of these trick moves simply are not possible with a traditional bike. Things like shifting cables and freewheel hubs would definitely get in the way of these sweet moves…
