All the current bicycles in the range have a Chromoly AISI 4130 Double Butted Alloy Steel tubing frame. The bicycles are almost identical except for the colour and finish on the frames and components. The Cop specifically stands out from the rest. It has a fluorescent yellow finish that glows in the dark as well. åÊ

When asked why they decided on Fixed Gear, co-founder Somy Sridas replied åÊÛÏThe moment we saw a fixie we fell in love with it. All of us saw and decided that it had to be it. The experience and the aesthetics were simply amazing. It is something that could drive young adults to adopt as a new trend. The simplicity of a fixie makes it stand out.Û
