in Russia bike rides you

We come to you with another girl on bike shoot.. The inspiration behind this shoot is our one and only lovely Max.. He runs all the behind the scenes and “IT” issues at Urban1cycle.com and well of course we he is from the motherland of Russia.. We have known Cristina for many years now, and she came up with the classic title for this feature “In Russia, bike rides you” being that Max designed his bike with some Russian “flare”.. It’s a SE draft with a upgraded crank, and SE Lager wheels..Please check out our gallery for a full photoshoot set. Enjoy….

Interesting setup for a fixed gear bike includes smurf speed drive gear with a timing belt from Gates. This is industrial belt with a bigger sprocket. These belts used for example on Harley Davidson bikes.

Interesting idea for a bike lock from Jaryn Miller.  The Senza system makes a bike completely secure. The whole system is incorporated into the bike itself making it easier to simply grab and go, and also provides safety for quick stops. The hadlebars seperate into three pieces. The central piece remains in place on the frame, while the two removed handles lock together, offering more space, and versitiliy than a standard U-Lock. Furthermore, if a thief were to cut the lock off, it renders the bike virtually unridable, as there are no handle bars. In addition, the lock on the rear of the bike is used to secure the back tire and seat post.

In early April, Lafayette, Indiana hosted a polo tournament that attracted teams from all over the midwest. Players from MKE to Lexington jousted and battled during the day long event at a unrivaled polo court. Filmmaker Kevin Daly captured the event and created a definitive video. Polo’s highest quality players in a document that captures the brutality and pleasures of the game.

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

MSRP: $549
