This is a short video of my bike in somewhat of a finished stage before paint. It still needs some small details like the kick stand removed, the bars bull horned, the front reflector removed.

  • is that bike still working perfect? me and my friend are building fixies and i just want to know? btw that looks really cool

  • @doctorandrewmorgan yes it is. i had to change the axle on the rear wheel once because it got bent. i used a mountain bike axle and its been fine since.

  • how do you make your bike chain tighter ?

  • @MRshakalohawaii

    (uploader) first i cut my chain to fit towards the smaller

    size. then i pull on the rim to pull the slack out

    of the chain while keeping the wheel centered.

  • you don't have much room left in the dropouts if the nuts aren't tight, you're gonna hurt yourself.

  • How have you made a fixed without a race hub?

  • Very nice video set. You did a great job on this bike, and it's nice to see creativity for doing this without specialized tools.

  • You can't even do a paint job right...

  • you spelled paint wrong

  • you are so fucking stupid why not just remove the rear freewheel and replace it with a fixed cog eventually the jb weld is gunna break off from to much stress

  • @Positron57 thats stupid, front brakes give you 70% of the stopping power. much better to have a front brake compared to a back brake. Oh and btw the correct term for 'bicyclerepairman' is bike mechanic...

  • suicide hubs are super sketch... would no reccomend

  • what kind of bike is that????

  • @Midnightgroover cuz hes gangster

  • @Positron57 i guess your right... haha i quit fixie thouugh.. :(

  • @dangsingraven

    I woked as bicyclerepairman before, and you wouldn´t belive the stupid shit people do for example to save a few bucks.

    Seriously, the one thing you need to build a fixie is a proper backwheel.

    And also If you are not used to riding without a brake; would adwise people to have a back break instead of a front one.
