Czar Jay's Astronaut


Look at the proportions of this bike. Look at the angles. This is custom at it's most practical application. It's made of high tensile tubing but it's got a proper geometry. Maldea custom at it's most basic but it still stands out in the crowd. Ain't that sweet as fuck?

Fixum Machina


We all know that Maldea frames have been going place for some time now. This one here was built in Manila and then built up in Singapore. Thanks to the internet, this pursuit track frame was created after several email exchanges between it's proud owner, Marvi and it's maker, Ave.

Specs and more photos after the break.

100% NJS




The recently released Gan Compe PRO track hubs are definitely a big step-up from the standard Gran Compe tarck hubs. With fully replaceable bearing races, it is the first of it's kind since the SunTour SUPERBE Pros.

These hubs are 100% made in Japan and are the first NJS certified hubs since the Dura Ace 7710. They come equipped with cup and cone "open" bearings which make them run super smooth, which is probably why Nagasawa Racing recommends these hubs to all their pro Keirin racers.

Very limited production quantity.
