Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - Nickel Plated frame Bikeisland.com

I was just looking around and came across this frame, and at first I just assumed it was a Kilo TT 'cause bikeisland just says Nickel Plated Lugged Frame. No manufacture name or model. The geometry also doesn't match up to the TT so now I'm just curious. Has anyone bought this frame? Know anything about it? Just curious.

i think its a maxway frame

Yup, Maxway. Same frame as the SE Premium Brew and Fuji Obey.

I had a Premium Brew and loved the hell out of it. Maxway is awesome.

my friend doug built this frame up as a wedding gift to himself. it looks REALLY nice and clean. Scrod's got all the details right and i can confirm cuz i've seen the maxway written in on the track ends in person.

interesting.. I could see a potential future in such a bike.

Here's a pic of my PB when I had it:

oh thanks, I was just about to ask to see a complete. reading minds. That, however, is an attractive bike and is pushing my slightly closer to purchasing the frame, hahaha.

get it, esp if its your size

goddamnit maxway, sell that frame in more colors than chrome, like a nice navy blue or cream color

Agreed.

You know, a certain independent anti-boutique bike shop that base out of Beverly, MA, could contact Maxway to hook up a deal.

It's in the works, my Canadian friend. :)

Is there an ETA? I missed out on the group bay from bikeisland some time ago. I'll be watching for updates!

EDIT: You know what, it doesn't matter. I'll wait.

ETA is up in the air but I'll keep everyone posted.

Screw eta. Tell me the exact date and time that they will be available on your website :/

Squirrelli is obviously an Italian name. The properly pronunciation is squi-rel-li.

I've seen some people strip the paint off a Schwinn Madison for the chrome look... I've been quite tempted to do it myself.

you guys do know chrome and nickel plated are different right. especially after time.
