State Bicycle Co. took to the streets to put this edit of our loops ride to our Halloween party. We call it "Night Riders".

Check out this video from Homegrown in Rio de Janeiro Brazil. They hosted an event for State Bicycle Co. x Nike at their shop. This included a local artist hand painting a custom fixie.

Our friend Zach Davis of Depths Photography put together this nice little overview of the State Bicycle Co. 'Watermelon'. We think its nice to see the bicycle in motion rather than just in pictures.

This is the remix to State Bicycle Co. - "Valley of the Sun". Shot & Edited by Tyler Quinn of Hoisted.

Our friend Zach Davis of Depths Photography put together this nice little overview of the State Bicycle Co. 'Marino'. We think its nice to see the bicycle in motion rather than just in pictures. 

We hope this gives everyone a nice feel on what it's like to ride in our hometown of Phoenix / Tempe, AZ. No matter where you are we hope you can relate to the great feeling and freedom that comes with riding. 

OPEN SPRINTS @ ICYC - 4/16/11 - Sponsored by State Bicycle Co. & AZfixed.com  

Jon Montana, a State Bicycle Co. customer, created this fantastic video for our video submission contest. Watch as he mimics the classic "Paperboy" motif with his trusty State Bicycle. 

State Bicycle Co.'s Bryan aka B-Hard aka Master B aka 2UBE CHAINZ aka Fixie Game Denzel runs through the anatomy of a bicycle while droppin bars (see what we did there?). Get learned. 

The "Bananas Box & Chop Method" is perfect for storing a bicycle efficiently and cost-effectively when traveling via airplane. With a little ingenuity, you can travel cross-country with your bike in the form of a checked bag and avoid outrageous fees. 

Penguins: the first species to ride brake-less. Antarctica: birthplace of the skid stop. These are facts, people. B-Hard reports direct from the cradle of fixie civilization and reveals the secret to pulling skidding stops that are both fly and will have the honey dips swooning.

Neon pink frame and the rest is none more black. One of our boldest and unmistakable creations yet.

We ran into Thomas while cycling on top of the Statue of Liberty in NYC (small world!) and asked him to help us repair our bike tire. Is there anything Thomas can't do?

State Bicycle Co. sponsored rider and eagle scout, Thomas, breaks down the difference between fixed gear and single speed. All SBC bikes feature a flip flop hub, which allows you to switch between fixed gear and single speed. Get learned.

Sponsored Rider and Black Belt Track Stander shows us his best track stand and how to pull it off on a fixed gear bike. He just makes it look so easy, doesn't he? 

We caught up with the world-famous B-Hard for advice on the do's and don't's of locking up your bicycle.

Confused about all the various types of bike pedals out there? We were too! So, we sent B-Hard to Egypt's famed Valley of the Kings; where in the 18th Dynasty, King Tutankhamen developed the world's first proto bike pedal. B-Hard takes us through the different styles and applications of bicycle pedals/foot retention. 

O.G. State Bicycle Co. sponsored rider, B-Hard, gives the skinny on which bike handlebars might be the best fit for you.

Inevitably, a hip cycling bro is going to start talking about Bicycle Gear Ratio (or BGR, as my SF fixie-dawgs would say). To avoid certain humiliation, you're going to need to brush up on the meaning of the term and how to achieve the right ratio by switching out your rear cog. Thomas breaks down the science. 

In our guide to properly fitting yourself for a bicycle, we reveal an old cyclist's tale: The Stand-Over test.
