About this product
This is a custom-built fixed gear track bike featuring a flip-flop hub and Shimano Claris components. Designed for unisex adults, it rolls on 700C wheels and has no suspension, typical for a track bike. It's a single-speed model, not vintage, and is noted as needing minor fixes, suggesting a project for a rider with some mechanical aptitude.
Our take
This custom fixed gear track bike offers a budget-friendly entry point for riders interested in single-speed cycling, particularly given its flip-flop hub for both fixed and freewheel options. The 700C wheels are standard for track bikes, and the Shimano Claris components, while entry-level for road bikes, are functional for this application. However, be aware that it "needs minor fixes," so factor in potential time and cost for repairs or adjustments. It's a no-frills, no-suspension design, making it lightweight but also less forgiving on rougher surfaces. A solid choice for someone willing to put in a little work.
