This cog necklace is pretty blingin’, considering it was once a functioning part on someone’s bike. If your looking to accessorize yourself in efforts to display you love for fixed gear riding, creating your own cog necklace might be of interest.

To my surprise the Japanese know a different Bianchi Pista then other parts of the world and in many of there fan’s opinions Bianchi has beefed it up for Japan when compared to the states. Not only does the Japanese color scheme appeal more to the eyes of an urban fixed gear rider so does the enhanced frame and forks. That’s right… And for around the same retail price ($500 – $600 USD), too. I can just imagine how stunning this bike would look like in other similar colors.

An ugly chick flying down the street can be masked by the beauty of Aerospoke wheels, a vibrant color scheme, and a few hipster accessories the same way “celebrity sunglasses” can enhance almost any chicks appeal.

I’d have to say if you can find your more traditional cycling cap before hitting the street, consider one of these New Era x Undefeated hats as a stylish substitute.
