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…

Biking 2.0 with Copenhagen Wheel

500x_cph_wheel006

Today at the COP 15 Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, M.I.T. students introduced the technologically advanced Copenhagen Wheel. In addition to including various sensors and Bluetooth capability, the tire stores kinetic energy from braking for a later burst of speed.
The makers of the Copenhagen Wheel from M.I.T.’s SENSEable City Laboratory claim that the new features mark the advent of “Biking 2.0,” a new era based on smarter bikes and easier rides. The wheel is certainly a step in that direction; it includes sensors for detecting distance, speed, direction, all of which are beamed via Bluetooth to the rider’s iPhone. The wheel also includes a built-in lock that sends the rider a text if tampered with.

Not sure if you can call this a true bike because seems like it has a power assist feature  but it does sound like a good idea for people who just want to get around town without a car or people just trying to be more “green”.

New and improved Create Bikes.

parts-aristotle_detail_05_image

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.

Fixie shirt

I actually like the idea of using reflective print to combine design and security, especially during the night rides around the city. These shirts designed by a small group of artists from Berlin that designed clothes for fixed gear riders. For more info click here.
