There's a new fixed gear boutique opening in London soon, 14 Bike Company. And it looks pretty nice.
Don't ask me for coordinates because I don't know although I'm guessing Brick Lane or thereabouts is the direction. Also, if I got this right, they will be only selling their own '14 Bike Co' house-brand track bikes built-up by themselves, and maybe framesets too.
Check full set of pictures here.
Yurk! It look like a big wal-mart but for fixed gear!....
ReplyDeleteIt's at the back of the Truman Brewery at Brick Lane.
ReplyDeleteI walked past it the other day and they were working late to have things set up in time.
I didn't think much of the frames in the store, but what appeared to be their bikes were pure HHSB porn.
ooooh, that only richies can make more money and money and even more cream. nor the heart and/or the desire counts. some fukkup rich kid with a "new" idea. and when nobody sees him he will drive home in his suv!

ReplyDeleteby the way they selling korean columbus interpro frameset as a 3rensho [that what they say on the label attached to the frame] for around £1000 [actual price is around $300-350 max]...hahahahaha... pathetic.. if anyone wants me to supply evidence that i'm right reply to my post and i'll drop few links
Frames from the heart of England can't be that bad.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what all the hating is about.
New shop,
Selling good things,
Interests new people,
No problem.
Sitting around making sarky, small minded comments ain't big or clever. It's Daily Mail mentality in a pair of Van's - do one.
my mistake... i did not know 14 has fixed gear tokyo corner in their shop...interpro/3rensho in that corner :D... apart from that shop is ace... good profile prices and etc... i'm impressed 14 has approval of reynolds 953...cooper though.. don't get me started on a subcultural symbolism shit... posting relevant remark does not signify daily mail mentality... you should have gone for sun mentality...vans...being bias my dear...
ReplyDeleteAs the blog author I feel compelled to say this:
ReplyDeleteChill out everyone please.
It's just a bike shop, that's all. Surely having a new shop specializing on FG stuff cannot be bad if it manages to bring some competition to the prices of other similar shops. Right?
And ok, I can see that the 'trendy boutique'-style applied by the guys behind the said business venture does not appeal to everyone but then again, no one's forced to visit to that place anyway.
really helpful staff that are prepared to order stuff in, which saved me £ :D
ReplyDeletenicer than the brick lane bike lot too.. 'errrr that nitto stem...its very expensive' ...bitch.
so let me get this straight...this shop has nothing to do with FGL?
ReplyDeletei like their products
