Fixed City is a new documentary about fixed gear culture in Germany. The actual movie will be coming out in August 2009. Here you get a first impression of what you can expect!

DC is proud to introduce the PK Ripper Fixed Gear, the third installment in a series of limited edition bike projects from DC and SE Racing, all designed to embrace the heritage of the brand and the sport. A collector’s item, the PK Ripper Fixed Gear bike production will be limited to only 2,500 bikes worldwide.

The Fixed Gear collaboration mixes a touch of 1970’s bike nostalgia with modern bike performance features. Inspirations for the PK Ripper Fixed Gear bike‘s design aesthetic stem directly from the original DC x SE Racing PK Ripper collaboration. The new fixed gear bike design details are directly inspired from the classic PK Ripper BMX bike, complete with Floval tubing, Landing Gear fork and Looptail rear end. This blend of old school BMX and a modern fixed gear bike not only takes its cues from the PK Ripper BMX construction but also its colorways—Matte Black and Ball Burnished Silver.

The DC PK Ripper Fixed Gear bike’s Matte Black and Ball Burnished Silver colorways will both be limited to only 1,250 each worldwide. The bike will be available for $1,000 at select boutiques and specialty bike shops worldwide. The bike comes out on July 15th.

Look out for these at Carhartt retailers around the globe.

A couple of days ago we presented to you the new bikes designed by Shepard Fairey and Kenny Scharf for Lance Armstrong. Supertouch now also brings us an interesting video of the making of the bike. Check it out!

A while ago we showed you the art bikes by Kaws and Barry McGee for Lance Armstrong. Today we can give you a look at the next two bikes, this time created by Shepard Fairey and Kenny Scharf for the Giro d’Italia 2009.

The Giro d’Italia is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2009 and it is actually the first time that Lance Armstrong is participating. On July 16th the Nike backed “Stages” art show will open in Paris at Gallerie Emmanuel Perrotin and to draw some attention to the event these two new art bikes have been created.

“Getting up on Lance’s “daily driver” Trek Madone road bike, Shepard Fairey created a vibrant homage to Lance’s cancer fighting foundation while including ancient patterning in homage of Italy’s rich architectural details. NYC Pop Art legend Kenny Scharf took a totally different approach to Lance’s Trek TTX time trial cycle and created the “lightspeed” space bike that will hopefully hurtle Tex across the finish line in record time. Both bikes will be auctioned off on October 2nd (10/2 marks the date of Lance’s original cancer diagnosis) at the NYC stop of the “Stages” art tour with all proceeds going to benefit Livestrong.” Via Supertouch.

The Lance Armstrong “Stages” Project continues to draw in high profile artists, resulting in interesting pieces of work. You can be sure ther is a lot more to come.

For now, have a more detailed look at the Shepard Fairey and Kenny Scharf bikes after the jump.

The latest collaboration between SE Bikes and DC comes in the form of a brand new bike. Previously the companies have met to work on heritage models, but this time they are following the SE mantra of “BMX Innovation” and fusing the classic PK Ripper with a track bike.

Check out the original PK Ripper after the jump, and head to our features section to read more about SE in our interview with Todd Lyons.

Lance Armstrong called together some of todays most recognized artists to create custom designs for his Trek Madone roadbike. The bikes are part of the new “Stages” art campaign of the Livestrong foundation by Lance Armstrong.

Both Kaws and Barry McGree created custom designs of the Trek Madone. The Barry McGee bike will debut at the public anti-cancer ride in Hollywood today and then go on to be Lance’s bike in the Tour of California. The Kaws bike will first appear in the upcoming Milan-San Remo race. Both bikes were presented today in the Nike Montalban Theater space. Via Supertouch.

Bike company Aurumania has come out with their new Gold Bike Crystal Edition. Every visible part of the bike is 24k gold plated and the bike features 600 Swarovski crystals. Of course all other parts of the bike are only the best there is, including a Brooks saddle. The bike comes with a 10 year guarantee and is hand delivered worldwide.

With more bikes on the road, the bike of course also becomes a status symbol. If this is the right way to go, we doubt, but as usual one will also find buyers for this piece, which goes for an impressive 80′000 Euros.

Take a more detailed look at the bike after the jump.

Caliroots continues to celebrate their 5th anniversary. They got together with Sson, known for their cruiser/bmx hybrid bike. The bike comes limited to only 3 pieces with Caliroots branding and will be released exclusively at the Bread & Butter Fleamarket next week.

More detailed images of the Caliroots x Sson “Cruiser” Bike follow after the jump.

Today we got a first look at the Cannondale “Stealth” concept bike. Aside from the looks, the bike has a lot of impressive features, including a special new fork construction in all carbon fibre, as well as a monocoque carbon frame. The matt paint is just another point of attraction. Inspired by the Stealth fighter jet, the Cannondale bike is an impressive piece of sports equipment that we will hopefully soon see on the market.

Many more detailed shots of the bike follow after the jump.
