Our close friend’s over at  Tunerzine.com has posted coverage TAS “Tokyo Auto Salon”, in the coverage was a shot of a fixed gear bike built by a car designer or a aftermarket part company.. company unknown right now.. hopefully we can find out more. This bike looks sick!

Fixed gear/ single speed is very big in Japan. It’s not uncommon to see fixie chicks riding around Tokyo. Love their style with a Japanese twist…

Create a UK bike company released second version of their fixed/single speed bike.  Bikes available in all kind of candy-colored setups just like bikes at Republic Bikes or Urban Outfitters. This second version uses better components and also it is a lot cheaper than their first version of these bikes.  So far online price is 199 UK pounds. New lower price and lots of better components makes this bike a pretty good bargain.

Our friends from 66 Fixed posted pictures of 2009 Florida Cyclocross State Championship in Tallahassee and team 66Fixed in action. Here are some pics of this awesome event. Check out their Flickr account for more pictures.

Seems like in Sacramento police been actively enforcing no brakes law for the last 6 months. The district attorney’s office says they’ve seized 18 bikes for “evidence” and 19 for “safekeeping” in 2009. Sacramento’s lead bike cop, Sgt. David Valdez, however, says the city is just enforcing California law, which states: “No person shall operate a bicycle on a roadway unless it is equipped with a brake.” Valdez argues that fixed-gear bicyclists riding without hand brakes are breaking this law. Both the city police and district attorney’s office do not consider legs as a braking mechanism… which is funny,  since hand brake can not operate without human muscle. So what is the difference between braking with your hand muscles or your leg muscles? For more on this story check out this article.
