Pake posted the first photo of their new track frame. Looks good. I’m liking the geo., 1 1/8″ headtube and straight-blade fork.

Livery Design Gruppe’s Mini Fixed Gear bikes in brushed finish. When out, these will come in 2 different frame designs and in 10 wild colors. Both frames are manufactured with Reynolds Tubing and will be sold as completes. These bikes will be a ground up frame and component offering.

LDG claims this will be the most insane complete mini fixed gear ever built and they just might be right.  Anyone who knows me, knows I’m a sucker for lugged frame construction. And judging by these previews, I might just fall in love with this thing. I mean, look at those lugs, and the drilled drops are a really nice touch.

Details and specs here.

Kilroy is here.

Kilroy has dropped over at Gorilla Bicycles. Make a move over to their site for full details, geometry, pricing, and some silly-huge, high res photos.

After slamming and breaking our prototypes in public and in front of cameras, we finally started production of the Kilroy frame. The tests that Wonka ran lead to the conclusion that we had to manufacture a tube set just for this frame, with particular reinforced parts to absorb and handle the stress of the jumps. Together with Columbus we decided to change the alloy in order to avoid very thick and heavy tubes and gain in strength nevertheless. We are proud to present the first freestyle frame in Niobium steel. The Columbus Niobium steel is a special micro alloyed steel with Manganese, Chrome, Nickel, Molybdenum and Niobium that is designed to provide superior mechanical properties. -Gorilla Bicycles

Welcome to Kinfolk.

Kinfolk Bicycle co., whats not to love about these sexy bikes.

After a lot of work, a few flights to Japan and back, many ginger mint mojitos, weeks of jetlag, 43 freshness burgers, and 8 inches of beard, we’re happy to officially launch the Kinfolk Bicycle co. We are deeply honored and very grateful to work with Kusaka in bringing these frames to the world. For someone of his caliber to trust us with his handiwork is an honor.

Containing decades of frame building experience, and made to the exacting specifications of Keirin track racing, these bikes are functional and built to last. In addition, we wanted these bikes to be beautiful as well. From the brass headbadges designed by Marco Hernandez, paint by Coat and ColorFactory, to the graphics by Way&Means, no expense was spared in making them look as good as possible. -Kinfolk.com

Check out their Flickr page for more photos. Get ready to drool.
