London Fixed Wheel Bike #1

We were on a short family trip to London last week and I’d had plans to snap a few photos of some fixie bikes. I noticed quite a few, including one sighting of the new Boardman Road Comp SC.

Pictured above is a fixie that I spotted on Brompton Road, Kensington. Judging by the frame clearances I’d say that this is a fixie conversion project. Notice anything missing? Yep… there aren’t any brakes. Naughty.

Here’s another view of the bike, front on. What make is the bar?
