Custom Fixed Gear Bikes
There are so many words people use to categorize these single speed bikes from fixed gear, fixies, brakeless, boosters etc, but no matter what term you use there is only one word that comes to mind when we think of these bikes, "art". With the freedom to express yourself in every part and color you pick for your custom fixie. We love what we do and love watching our customers become the "Picasso" of there time when they start to design their own masterpiece, the bike that soon becomes an extension of their personality.
Why complicate things? These Boca fixies bring it back to the bare essentials with elegant design and nimble agility. As more people join the revolution, custom aspects of these single speed bikes really start to standout. Bullhorns or drop handlebars? Are you into brakes? Or do you live on the wild side?
