"Sensible Shoes"

Fixed Gear Ensembles
& Wheelbuilding
at Yellow Jersey

We build professional track racing bikes for both sprint and pursuit and we've been doing that for over thirty years so we know how to do that right.

More popular, however, is a fixed gear layout for commuting and training. For that, you don't absolutely need top professional equipment. In fact, clincher tires, a front brake (or a pair) and toeclip pedals are often preferred over a real Keirin or Pursuit setup for city riding.

We can build as you wish. Our suggested basic urban fixie build runs roughly $550 on your frame with quality durable equipment. Some equipment changes over time but you get the general idea. This is fairly typical of the bikes we ride to work ourselves in winter. When you're at a stop sign next to a messenger, take a look at her bike. Looks a lot like this, doesn't it?

As always, we'll listen to your preferences, we're very amenable to options not listed here (and we probably have the equipment you prefer in stock today!). We had to start somewhere but there's a wide range of taste. If you happen to have a saddle or a front wheel lying about we can work with your gear and adjust the pricing . You may as well use those toeclip pedals or the stem your roommate gave you. A good commuting bike just doesn't need to be expensive to be fun and dependable!

WHEELBUILDING

Even our most basic fixed wheels are carefully built with Formula hubs, Wheelsmith / Asahi butted bright stainless spokes
and Velocity tubular or clicher ( or even mountain size! ) rims. We've been building custom wheels to order for
amost 40 years. In that long time we've learned one important thing:
Y O U R wheels are special!
Tell us what you like, what you need, what you want
Y E S ! , we can do that!
Standard rear ony fix-free wheels start about $99 with sprocket and freewheel. Generally, custom track wheels are roughly $300~$400 / pair
A pair built with Miche hubs are mid- $400
Campagnolo and Phil Wood premium fixed gear rear wheels around $300.
Do please call us and we'll help! As with any custom wheel, we want to talk with you about
your riding style , your taste
and your expectations.
We can build extremely light. We can build extremely tough.
We can build visually distinctive wheels and very plain utilitarian wheels
We can build to meet your every desire
