According to the Razorimages.com crew, this is a 3D rough image of the Lucky13 fixed gear track bike that they designed. However, its futuristic body lines won’t see manufacturing until the design is backed by investors. Let’s hope these skillful designers find the money they’re looking for to get the ball rolling.

According to Fixed Gear Blog, the team at yksivaihde.net is building them a fixie influenced beer tap for their Christmas party of 08’. The beer tap, designed by ChopperOlli, is decorated with dropdown handlebars and hosts a selection of two beers.

Aurumania, a design company with a passion for working with gold, has designed a lavishing fixed gear bike composed of all-around 24k gold platting and over 600 embedded Swarovski crystals. The 24k gold platted track bike is limited to 10 made with a price tag of Euro currency symbol 80,000. It also comes warranted for ten years, no questions asked – as if that would be the make or break point of an Euro currency symbol 80,000 sale.

Sorry I don’t remember where I found this photoshoped picture of President George W. Bush with a fixed gear in his hand; but I have to share it because it’s too funny and his bike is sick.

The worlds of fixed gear riding, art, and fashion have been meshed this time by RVCA and Cinelli to bring the streets “Pressure” - a RVCA x Cinelli collection of unforgettable t-shirts. According to RVCA, many inspiring artists took part in the making of the collection, including Ashley Macomber, Barry McGee, Clare Rojas, C.R. Stecyk III, Dan Murphy, Dmote, Jesse Geller, Josh Lazcano, KAWS, Madsaki, Phil Frost, PM Tenore and Stephen Powers.

Some t-shirts are offered in more than one color. Because describing the collection of seven different shirts and a hat will take more time then I have to spare, I’ll leave the breakdown to you. Each tee from this collection will run USD $28.00 and USD $22.00 for the hat.

Even though more people are taking notice to the fixed gear scene, it’s surprising to see this fixie inspired art piece by Disney in collaboration with The Hundreds – an urban apparel outfitter. The piece on the left features an unfamiliar Disney character throwing up the peace sign while leaning up against a fixie. The second collabo (on the right) features another one of Disney’s characters that happens to be sporting a messenger bag. Both characters are dressed in hipster wear. This Disney x The Hundreds art piece goes to show track bikes are continuing to grow in popularity; And we’re sure with Disney come more enthusiasts.

The one of a kind Kidrobot x Nemesis Project fixies is by far the sickest track bike I’ve ever seen. The creator, Brad Hodges from the Nemesis Project built this bike 100% from scratch for Kidrobot – an urban toy and appeal shop with a deep interest in art. The bike was originally created to celebrate the grand opening of Kidrobot’s new flagship store in Miami, Florida, before venturing to a small bike shop in Sacramento, California where it’s awaiting someone with $6,000.00 to buy it.

Both Brad and the founders of Kidrobot put a lot of thought into customizing this bike. Even the sterling silver Kidrobot head emblem, which was done by Osa at Complete Technique, on the front of the frame is proprietary. It doesn’t stop there. The Kidrobot bike also comes with a u-lock that matches in color, a Kidrobot keychain, and a seat made out of Ostrich, to name a few.

Here are some more specifications I found on Brand’s site (I think) pertaining to the Kidrobot x Nemesis Project fixed gear.
