Hold Fast’s 29’r FGFS Prototype Frame
If you weren’t aware of this frame, then chances are you haven’t really been paying attention to the Bmore Fixed guys. Hold Fast has been developing their MADE IN THE USA 29’r fixed freestyle frames for over a year now and this is the first that we’re seeing any official information on it. I’m very into this bike, not only as a FGFS frame but also for some quick off-road action. Two very talented frame builders are making these, on either coast!

Kim Heikkinen’s LOW
Photo by Kim Heikkinen
Yes, steel is real, but LOW is one of the few people making handmade in the USA aluminum track frames and for that reason, he’ll always get love here on the PiNP. Kim’s new LOW is looking good. Can’t wait to see how it gets built up. If it’s like Kim’s other builds, it’ll be balleur.
Edit: Jussi has the story behind this bike on his blog. Check it out!

Trackosaurus Rex: New All-City Track Frame and STTBars
Even though sometimes Kyle is a little shit on the internet, deep down he’s a good guy. Which is funny because he’s such a short lil fella but somehow he buries the niceness deep, deep down. Deep like the track drops pictured here…
Anyway, Jeff from All-City unveiled his new track bike at #GSC a few weeks ago. Accompanying the frame are the STTBars. Lookin’ good Jeff. See more at Tracko.

Seth Rosko’s Street Fixed
You might recognize this bike from the profile I did on Seth Rosko and Johnny Coast a few years back. The Atavistic Urge was a video Sara Kinney and I worked on, showcasing the two Brooklyn framebuilders. At the time, Seth had just gotten this bike back from paint and was anxious to build it up. Now, almost two years later, Seth’s been putting in miles on his bike. This simple street fixed setup is one to drool over, especially when it comes to that paint!

Marc’s LOW Track Bike
Since Andrew LOW began building aluminum track frames in SF last year, the whole world has been salivating over their aggressive geometries and bright liveries. But I’ve seen few that rival Marc Marino’s newest LOW track bike, remember his Low Pro? This bright pink beast is almost impossible to photograph but I did my best to get all the details. We took the TIME to look at his pedals already but did you notice the extra gussets at the bottom bracket cluster? Or the killer Ritchey cockpit? Details, this bike has ’em and it’s hella #FixieFamous.

Мишка and Affinity 5 Year Anniversary Frame by Lamour Supreme
Since leaving NYC, it’s great to see people and brands that I brought together still pushing rad shit. I introduced Lamour Supreme to Mishka many years ago and that led to talks of bikes and art. Since Affinity was my LBS, I always sent the dudes to Jason for their cycling needs. Now, what? Like 5 years later, Mishka, Affinity and Lamour Supreme put this sick as fuck Kissena track bike out. Amazing.
