Chris: I suppose my style of riding is definitely influenced by my trials and mtb background. I first got in to fixed when I moved to London from Australia in 2007. I used to commute 8 miles to work on my trials bike, it was ridiculous, so I started riding fixed. I couldn’t help but do tricks like I would on my trials bike and then it just progressed from there. I rode my fixed bike more because it was more practical and I could still have fun. Then I started riding for Fixed Gear London and from there a whole world of opportunities opened up. I was lucky enough to get Vans and Dickies through FGL but then I was contacted by Ison Distribution and they offered me a place on their teams with Identiti, Halo, Gusset, Odi, TSG and now All City. My current set up is an All City def wish, Halo aerowarrior rims with Halo 29r Twin rails, Gusset bars and Gusset Woodstock cranks. I like the way it rides with the 29rs, so smooth! I think I’ll always stick with 700c/29rs because for me its what makes fixed freestyle different. I like the challenge of the bigger bike and bigger wheels, its why I ride. Plus I’ve still got my trials bike, my jump bike and my fast bike so having the bigger wheels keeps it fun. www.halorims.com www.gussetbikes.com www.ison-distribution.com www.fixedgearlondon.com
