Hey Arqetech,

this is a sweet bike and it’s already had heaps of comments. Have you thought about submitting it to the Sydney Bicycle Film Festival competition?

If it gets voted highly you could be in the running to win prizes from sponsors and the title of finest custom bike in Sydney.

You should think about it man - I reckon the bike would do well.

not a big fan of the BMX styled fixies but this is a very nice build.

i was racing BMX when the PK RIppers first hit our shores and the logo is still the same.
personally i reckon the aerospoke suites this build/frame. with the width of the down tube and top tube - the spoke balances them out nicely.
goto love the PK/Mongoose/Yeti rear-stay hoops as well.

great build

Yeah, this is a sweet set up the only thing I don’t like about the frame is the typeface they used for the decal hahaha, but that’s a very minor detail. Why does every one always hate on aerospokes? I think they look awesome. Nice touch with the green toe straps by the way

Yeah - will do, I’m scavenging parts from my 20” PK to take it away from the stock set up…still some way till it’s ready.
Yours isn’t the stock set up either - new tires, front wheel, seat post, seat, grips, lever, brake and cable or did the brake come with it - the UK ones don’t …also has yours got a hole for a rear brake?? some frames have but not mine.
The PK Ripper is an iconic frame that some of us of a certain age have always found appealing, this is my third.

very nice build, especially with the Aerospoke!
Dont worry bout other haters! Ride what u like, not them like!

and hey.. why bother wednesday ride if full of haters, come Join the Sunday Ride * u know where!
