Diego's Brooklyn Machine Gangsta Track Bike Check

 

Diego is one of the fish 'n' chips specialist here in Paris. This strong Brooklyn Machine Works steel frame and unbreakable fork makes it a sure bet for tricks!

Diego Fish 'n' chips on Brooklyn Gangsta Track

 
Comfy and reactive build: gives a feeling of stability while being really handy.

Its geometry makes it a good bike, mainly with it’s lifted top tube that provides a comfortable position. Fish ‘n’ chips were harder to get back with at the beginning, but bunny hops and riding backward are quite easy on this build.

DT Swiss agreement

Mounted with DT SWISS R460 wheelset, there's no fear to break spokes or to bend a rim: caring your bike parts reliability is the last thing you want to do when you are focusing on a trick!

Having a good wheelset such as this one is primordial to gain in lightness and handiness.

A subtle thread, a pure line, a burst of grace. This is how the "spin" expresses itself, a singular gesture of a body pivoting on its fundamental axis. A vibrant animation, which draws its strength from an unprecedented nature, that of the feeling of total fulfillment by the simplest of harmonies.
