26″ mtb street
Everyone is always comparing fixed gear freestyle/700cmx style of riding to bmx when in actuality its alot closer to 24″/26″ street. I know these guys got all their moves from bmx, but its still pretty rad to see these bikes with big wheels being thrown around. even if they do have freewheels. I just dont think you can really compare this fixed gear stuff to bmx. bmx has had so many years to evolve, and everything they do is always gonna be smoother, and alot bigger. Anyways heres a pretty rad video from a guy in Poland, and a couple pictures of some rad 26″/24″ bikes. check out more here

hahahaha
that stairfail at 1:35 is pretty hilarious!
no sprocket/chain/driver on the 1st bike?
Yeah, i’ve seen a couple of these that people are riding chainless. Not sure about the advantages, aside from crankarm grinding both sides. oh well, rad bike nontheless
I ride fixed too, but this stuff is so much more exciting than any fixed gear bumbling around that I have seen. Fixed tricks are weak.
it is still exciting to see people figure out a trick never before done on a fixed gear bike. There is still a lot of progression in the fixed world. Maybe the “big air” tricks aren’t as big as on other bikes, but that isnt the only direction this sport is headed.
what song is this? sick video
He definitely has a chain. He just rides a really small sprocket, if you pause it you can see the chain line. There would be no point in riding chain-less.
What rear hub is being used to run pegs?
