I think everyone’s waited long enough for a full reveal of what I’ve decided to dub “The Weis Beach Ripper”, simply because riding along the sea is probably what I’ve done most with this bike so far…

A few weeks ago, I shared my experience from the event I organized for Weis in Paris. It took almost everything I had in me for an entire week, but it also made me eager to learn more about event organizing for the cycling community.

Post-COVID, Korea’s fixed gear scene sis hit a recession, major importers decided shut down, used market prices spiked, and the number of rider dwindled down compared to the mid-2010s…

I’ve already featured Romario’s collection a few times on here, with most recently his USSR Colnago. So now that you have a good sense of his “bike personality”, let’s rewind and take a look at the bike that started it all…

Today’s a little different! While I’ve done event recaps here on SSS before, like with Rust Out and Love Letter Turbo, I’ve never been so much on the organizing side of things. But after bringing the Weis Manufacturing Team…

Like many fixed gear fans out there, a trip to Japan always felt inevitable. The hype, the arts , the roads! A chance to soak in the culture, visit my friend So (you might’ve seen him featured here before), and finally pick up a frame I’d been looking forward to for months…

There are plenty of people who consider themselves bike collectors, each for their own reasons. Maybe it’s the way a bike looks, the way it rides, the history behind it, or maybe it’s just the joy of collecting for collecting’s sake…

First things first! ! huge thank you to everyone who submitted photos to the “2025 STOKED Photo Contest”! We received over 160 entries from incredibly talented photographers…

I started covering Romario’s collection a few months ago here on Slow Spin Society. With so many impressive bikes that often look completely unridable, in a “normal” setting, it’s refreshing to find one with a more traditional look, something I could actually imagine taking for a spin around the block…

A few years ago, I posted about Yuki’s criterium machine, her beautiful carbon fiber Kalavinka. Well, time for a change of pace: today, we’re taking a look at her Brooklyn Machine Works Gangsta V4…

In a recent post, I shared how Skream invited me to Hong Kong to finalize my review of the Skream Ranger. And with “The Vertical City” being so naturally cinematic…

When it comes to the fixed gear scene, there’s always been an enduring obsession with the Brooklyn Machine Works (BMW) Gangsta Track. But what about the lesser-known LaunchPad?

When I first launched Slow Spin Society with a sharp focus on fixed gear culture, I think deep down I wanted to help sparking another “fixed gear boom”, following the one we saw in the 2010s. One of the most unforgettable highlights from that era has to be the Red Hook Crit.

First off, a big thank you to Corentin and Stéphane for organizing the second edition of Love Letter Turbo (LLT), and once again giving me the opportunity to showcase some of my work in their publication…

The No. 22 press coverage never seems to stop around here, but sadly this is the last bit I saved from my 2024 summer trip to America. Today, we’re checking out a very special bike, since it’s the one I’ve been stoked about since I first spotted it online years back…

Let me start by introducing myself. I was born in Osaka, and I’m now in my third year of riding track bikes. At first, it was just about messing around with friends on bikes, Osaka has such a dense fixed-gear culture that it was hard not to get swept up in it…

What you’re seeing now is the first of a few bike checks I did while visiting Romario’s collection in Hong Kong. Private collectors like Romario don’t always grant access to photographers or media outlets…

A few weeks ago, I introduced you to Kaito, frame builder at Stratos. If you read until the end, you might recall me mentioning his side project, Flow Lab…
