Fixum X85 Track: Custom Ave Maldea


This is the… nth build of Marvi from Singapore. The most recent Maldea custom frame set from his "Fixum Machina" series, it is built from a mix of Columbus and Dedacciai steel with the Cannondale '93 track as his peg look-wise. Neat.

Specs and more photos after the jump.

Erikson's WeFXD X Colossi X Crest Pursuit Low Pro


These photos are taken by Erik on one of our many breaks from climbing the Sierra Madre loop. I'm pretty sure that this lightweight aluminum frame helped him push himself to his limits and conquer the mountains that day.

Check out more images and what he's got to say about this WeFXD X Colossi X Crest Pursuit frame collaboration after the jump.

Tik's "Green Minded" Pista Build


A speed freak, and one of the most aggressive and impatient riders i know, Tik went the opposite way and took his time -about one year- in building up this beautiful custom Maldea track bike. From the angles of the frame to the choices of components, his build is definitely worth the wait!

Check out the specs and more images after the jump.

Kalki's 2013 Vigorelli


Now, this Vigo is looking really neat and nasty. Former "Ultraman" and winner of the last Pusakalye alley cat race, Kalki once told me that he wants to try a less aggressive frame set, hence this Vigorelli build. But from the looks of it, i have a strong feeling that he will be riding even more aggressively now.

Beautiful bike and beautiful images. Thanks to Cedric Buenviaje for the photographs. 

Check out more photos and the specs after the jump.

Meccanico Giro


This Keirin beauty belongs to Victor, one of the earliest members of Manila Fixed Gear. The photos here are really nice but they don't do justice on how awesome this beast looks like in person.

"The Manila Fixed Gear mentality back then was to buy available parts even if you don't need them because someone you know might," he recalls, "This was so, because at the time, fixed gear parts were really hard to come by here in Manila." I remember this clearly as I was able to acquire from him the Aerospokes from this build that he replaced with the current HED3.

Check out the specs, more images and some trivia after the jump.

Fixum Machina Updated


We all know by now of the story of how Marvi, who is based in Singapore, collaborated with Ave thru the internet to come up with this pursuit frameset. This same build has gone thru some changes since we first featured it here in the blog.

Check out the updated parts after the break.

Aeon's Custom Blue Powder Powered Bike


Aeon's latest build is all cute and nice with its baby blue paint job and hot pink straps. Don't let that fool you tho. Under the paint gloss and utilitarian simplicity of this bike is an aggressive geometry. Ridden everyday against Manila's traffic and the elements, it is a commuter monster machine capable of taking it's owner in any destination.

Check out the specs and more photos after the break.

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.

Legnano Remixed


This was an old road frame "converted" into a track frame. With the help of Ave Maldea, we were able to adjust the geometry to a more aggressive configuration. We also changed the seat lug from stamped to investment cast. The Italian threaded bottom bracket has also been replaced with an English threaded one. Finally, the horizontal dropouts were replaced with stainless steel track ends.
