Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Don't work in a high end bike shop. You will see people buy bikes for 10 grand and say "So can I pick it up tomorrow?"

that bike is just way tiny. Doesn't BMW only have that frame in 2 sizes though? either way its a lame attempt at trying to fit into hipster culture. Fail at skating, fail at fixed gear. . . he should stick to making music.

if i'm not mistaken, i think he owns a part of BMW...as in he helped them during financial crisis.... which is actually pretty noble if you ask me...

not that i'm a pharrell fan or a fan of that bike, but it's whatever

That bike looks like a 48cm or somewhere around there, is Pharell really that short. And Kaws yes, is sick, did anyone see the storm trooper medicom collab, **** was sickkkk. The Supreme Kate Moss redo was amazing as well.

it looks like a 40 cm, which has a top tube of 55 i believe. The 40 and 46 both have the same top tube

you have no idea. this ducd pharrel went to the ferrari dealer when the enzo was released and was like 'i want that' and was told about the long time custy/must own multiple ferraris with no accident history rule for ownership. ducd bought 4 ferraris that day so they would let him order an enzo. i heard he also got that special FXX enzo track only model offered to enzo owners only too.
what you expect? charges $150k for a beat... he could throw out ten of those bikes a day and not even know.

dude, that isn't even ******, that's just stupid.

it even sounds like one of those 'the ferrari salesman snubbed him so he bought the dealership just to fire him' stories.

lot of hating going on here. so he got a bike, is it really his or just a photo of him on a bike? do you know for sure?

I'm sure he is quite capable of riding the bike and getting it sized proper.
most of you fools just started riding too and didn't know jack about bike before you spent sometime with them and some of you still don't know jack.

if you came up and made bank I'm sure you would buy toys that you didn't know much about and spend big buck on whatever you want.



hatin' are fools just jealous cause you can't.

I don't know why I'm defending Pharrell. I just think this thread and you haters are ridiculous

Oh I knew about all that. I am just saying how nice it must be to be able to do that stuff. It wouldn't be as bad if you didn't have to be either black and talented, or white and have wealthy parents to get to that status. The rest of us have to work 20 times as hard for a tiny fraction of what they have. It is kind of messed up, but I can't really take that away from them.

not true. you can get them painted with machined sidewalls...

and i don't care what pharrel does, he's earned his money and he can spend it however. i just thought a man who is so fashion conscious would rock non-machined rims.
