eBay Gem: Merckx Stuttgart Pista
I know what you’re thinking but this is not my old track bike. It’s actually a few years older than my bike was. This one’s a bit smaller too and it’s ending today on eBay…

Affinity: 2012 Frames Restock
This just in from Affinity:
“Affinity is proud to officially release our Summer 2012 frame re-stock. Get on the latest batch of Lo Pro and Metro frame sets and complete builds while they last. Matte black, champagne money and chrome plated Lo Pro’s are looking sick, and our new Metro shouts NYC with liquid sparkle blue and orange decals. The frames are going fast and once they go, they are gone. Get at em, first come first serve.”
It’s funny how that top photo makes me miss NYC so much. Looking great Jason! Check out more photos at Affinity’s blog.

iMinusD: Breakbrake 17 Frames Pre-Order
iMinusD has posted up the entire Breakbrake 17 2012 offerings for pre-order. This includes their Transfer, triple triangle track, Charmer 26″ FGFS V2 and the Serpent 29’r FGFS. I love the way the Serpent looks and there needs to be more 29’r FGFS frames on the market, in my opinion of course. These are expected on June 20th. Check out the details at iMinusD.

LOOP x LOW
Andrew showed me these photos when I was visiting him in SF and LOOP Magazine now has this collaboration up for lottery sale. Not that you guys want to drop that kind of coin on a collaboration but it’s still a nice looking frame. While we’re on the subject of Loop, Dan Chabs made the cover!

Tokyo Fixed Bikes: 2012 Road Rocket
Tokyo Fixed Gear‘s frame lineup for 2012 is rounded off with their new road model, the Road Rocket. If you’re in London, swing through the shop to test ride one, beginning today.
“With the Road Rocket we went ahead and indulged by designing our dream road frame. We have used our favorite tubing (Columbus MAX chain stays and down tube, Spirit seat tube and head tube and a skinny Keirin top tube & seat stays) to deliver performance in all the right places. The frame weighs 1.7kg / 2.06kg inc the Columbus Minimal full carbon fork. The Road Rocket is a credible contendor against titanium and carbon frames with all the comfort and durability steel brings. Estimated retail price will be £775 frame only / £900 frame and fork. Our first shipment is in the water now and will be with us very soon.
Check out more at the Tokyo Fixed Gear blog.

Baum Cycles: Venomous Corretto
This looks so killer that it’s gotta be venomous. Baum continues their melee of color-mixing with this crystal blue and venom green Corretto road frame. I usually don’t like painted ENVE components, but Baum just does it right. See more at their Flickr.

Hold Fast O.X. 29’r 26″ and 24″ Framesets Available Now
The Hold Fast O.X. frames are now available. OX Platinum, made in the USA and rider tested. These are looking DAMN good.
More details:
“We’re proud to introduce to you our latest, the Hold Fast O.X. Frame Series. They’ve been described by our test riders as the kind of bike that is so responsive, “all you have to do is think it, and the bike does the rest”. While we can’t make that claim ourselves (thanks a lot, Colin), our goal was simply to create an aggressive and highly responsive frame with a dialed-in geometry that encourages intuitive freestyle riding.”
This breaks down into three frames: The Converter 29’r, the Subverter 26″ and the Agitator 24″.
Pick these up now, because they won’t last!
