Time to step up...

One gear No idea from chris akrigg on Vimeo.



This was, apparently, his first time on a fixed gear bike. 6-time UK trials champ shows how it's done.

the dude has got a big bag of tricks...but tricks are for kids, and this cycling thing is about sportsmen, so technically that guy needs to step his game up...besides where's the no-handed hop?

His no-handed hop is right around the corner. Tracko said something like "all he's missing is the clothes." Are you dissing him because he doesn't fit this conceived "fixie lifestyle" pattern? Because if you've shown me anything it's that bikes are bikes...and this guy knows how to balance. I say let the trials guys show everyone what they know and let's expand on that. Progression is nohing without competition.
