Great New Fixed Gear Magazine

"I like to ride fixed gear. No brakes, cant stop. Don't want to, either."




 
Check out this great new Fixed Gear orientated magazine from Italy called CYKELN. In the words of the publishers, Niccolo and Claudio,  "CYKELN is not a magazine made by professionals, but a collaboration between the many scenes that were built around the world of two-wheelers: Riders, photographers, video makers, craftsmen, designers, amateurs, athletes and more."
  
It caught our eye right away when we saw an interview with Rudy Melo, one of the team riders for our first line of bicycles we ever carried, LEADER. The mag has terrific graphics - hey, it's from Italy, so you know it's going to look great - with photo layouts of fixie bikes and riders around the world (where do you get a t-shirt that says "I hate SUV riders!" - we want one!), as well as in depth interviews with
racers, riders, fixed gear bike shop owners, and more. Great mag, great project, something we need more of in the fixed gear world. If you ride a fixie, you'll recognize yourself in the photos of the riders on these pages.

Go grab a free copy at http://cykelnmag.altervista.org/. And tell Niccolo and Claudio what a great job they are doing while you are at it.
