Whether you prefer to ride fixed or free, we’ve got you covered with a Flip-Flop rear hub and fixed cogs already installed.
Our SST (size-specific tubing) engineering protocol employs smaller-diameter frame sections for smaller frames and larger ones for bigger frames, for more consistent ride quality across all frame sizes.
There is simply no better material better suited for the rigors of urban riding than steel. Unlike aluminum, steel naturally damps or absorbs the shocks and vibrations of city streets. Aluminum simply transmits it, like a tuning fork, which is why aluminum frames are often criticized for their “harsh” riding qualities. Besides, on a fixie, where vintage reigns, skinny steel frame tubes are just right.
The Beatnik’s short length flat bar and threadless alloy stem can be flipped to a 10-degree positive position depending on rider preference.
We include front and rear brakes in our specification. The calipers are a “long-reach” type allowing for greater tire width choices and fender installation.
FIXED GEAR
These are stripped-down, go fast gear for the urban jungle or getting up to speed at the velodrome. Beatnik's steel frame to soak up anything the city has to throw at you and aluminum Sonik for lighter weight and flat-out hi-speed . Brakes and flip-flop hub just in case. Everything you need to survive on pedals on the street or at the velodrome. Nothing more. Nothing less.
