Picture 4.pngFixie Inc launch new website
The guys at Fixie Inc have launched their new website www.cycles-for-heroes.com.
As you'd expect Fixie's 2009 bikes are there in all their glory, but you'll also find image galleries, blogs (interesting picture of 'The Man', Recip Yesil) er, delivering beer at a 24 hour enduro, links to fixed gear, cyclocross and bike polo sites. And that's not all, you'll also find reviews (there's one of ours on the home page) downloads, and video – including our interview with Recip and Holger at Eurobike when they demo'd their fixed gear belt drive prototype.
The site is in both English and German and is well worth a good rootle around. So go check it out!
road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.
My new notice for vehicle tax is for £35 for 2025. That's for a 1.4l diesel. How much should I pay for a bike?
Having a damper on the door, so it cannot fly open would seem to be a simple & effective solution. I've never heard why it's not used.
Or you could play safe and upgrade to 105. No chance of it falling apart in the same way as overpriced Ultegra with it's crappy 'Airfix' glue.
I was going to suggest the Fairlight Strael too, and went to check if it came in on budget. While there, I finally ordered the frameset I've been...
Presumably they could also have been saved if the council had just reduced the carriageway width without residents' agreement....

I have visited Guernsey and my wife goes there a few times a year for work. This act of premeditated violence shocks me. There are quite a lot of...
You could well be right. Personally, I think Avonvale Rd is just a disaster for having two way traffic. So many drivers think the traffic calming...
Although Muller Rd isn't great to cycle on (the north end, anyhow), it's certainly not the worst. I'm definitely in the "brave and bold cyclist" at...
Meh, he said "about" 75psi which is fair enough - ETRTO use 5 bar (72.5psi) as the limit, so 75psi is well within the error margin of the gauge on...
