Us Versus Them has teamed up with SE Bikes to design the best fixed freestyle frameset available.  Spearheaded by UVT’s James Banuelos, the Us Versus Them frame was designed from the ground up to withstand the harshest abuse that riders are putting their bikes through. Tested by Gus Molina, Josh Boothby, and DJ Mull, the frame has been put through months of abuse to make sure that the frame is bombproof. The Cr-Mo frame has been fully heat treated with the top and down tubes being double butted. The seat tube has been cut-out to allow clearance for larger (50c) tire sizes along with ovalized & tapered seat and chain stays for extra tire and foot clearances.

The 73mm mid bottom bracket and Campy compatible integrated headset are both externally machined and a sealed Tange headset comes installed as well as a trick integrated seat clamp. Finally, the Landing Gear forks are heat treated & butted for even more strength.

To match the aggressive nature of the technical specs, UVT designer Graham Nystrom gave the bike his signature treatment, choosing a gunmetal grey paint for the base color of the frame, and wrapping a tonal hand drawn snake scale print around the front, the brand motto “Never Stop” is printed on the brake bridge along with UVT/SE branding on the seat tube.

The frameset is shipping to SE dealers across the USA this week. http://www.sebikes.com/findadealer.php

White and red color scheme on fixed gear bikes is one of my favorites setups so I was very excited to learn that fixed gear track bike brand Red You R Dead finally opened up their new showroom location in L.A.

We decided to take her bike to 66Fixed bike shop and after talking to Michael about options, we decided to keep it simple.  Michael did a nice job doing a quick single speed conversion on the rear wheel and the crankset.  To add a little bit of style to her bike, she chose some yellow and red tires and a pair of nice black pedals… hey, nothing like pimping out your first fixie/single speed bike.

Here are some pics we’ve taken of her “new” Lemond bike on a test ride around downtown Saint Petersburg Florida.
