I purchased two 6061 Black Label bicycles, one for my son, and one for me. Overall, the bicycle, and most of the components are excellent. The only problem I've had is that if you're going to use the supplied brakes, which we do, the finish on the stock wheels wears off very quickly, resulting in bare metal showing through, and kinda killing the vibe of the color way. I have several bicycles, that vary in age from a few years, to over a decade, and none of these have near the wear that these wheels show in just a few weeks. I do love the bicycle, but wish they'd use better stock wheels.

Hey guys! I just had to get some serious miles in before I wrote this, but WOW! I’m absolutely in love with my new 6061 black label! It’s so sleek, smooth, silently stealth, so bright I can be SEEN and lightweight! It’s a f@**ing party to ride and I love my commute to work everyday. You guys did real great on this one and deserve many accolades! Thank you from the bottom of my Volt colored heart! If you’re considering buying this bike, do not hesitate, hit purchase and enjoy everyday after it drops on your doorstep! Happy ridin’, see ya out there!

Had a buddy of mine that wouldn’t hit the hell up about fixed gear and the connection with the road and the true cyclist, and the blah blah blah. After watching hours of YouTube videos I was stuck between state and priority bicycles. What Mae me choose state was the familiarity with the chain and options for wheels. There was one YouTuber that was glazing on Wabi cycle and he’d bash the state bike any chance he had. I saw it for what it was and I could get a state with carbon wheel for the entry level wabi. Team was helpful and changed my order after some last minute decisions. Bike as beautiful and a very easy build. For the price o didn’t mind a few scuffs and about 2 chips on the paint by the bottom bracket. It’s not noticeable and if I wasn’t putting it together I wouldn’t have noticed. Would buy again 100% but would go for the bob marley theme. I don’t have anything negative to say about this bike

I posted this on Reddit too:
State 6061 Black Label v3- feels small. Thoughts?
Just bought and assembled my brand new State fixie. I'm 5'10. Ordered a 58cm- which State recommends for 5'10" to 6'2". My previous bike was a 57cm, and felt perfect sizewise.
This one, I feel super scrunched, even with the drop bar brakes installed, and the saddle slid all the way back.
I remember reading that this bike was sized large- but I'm not seeing that. Feels way small.
Thoughts? Is swapping to a longer stem going to help? Or does that create other problems? For reference, the stem it comes with is 90mm.
Thanks for any wisdom!

Everything about this bike order has been fantastic!

The bike arrived promptly with all the parts. Looks great. Paint was flawless. Everything was packed well. The only complaint I have is the handle bar grips. I opted for the vans grips. The end caps just don't fit, way too loose, and are completely useless. I ended having to scrounge up some old end caps from the parts bin. Other than that I'm very satisfied with the purchase and my partner loves riding it.

I love my bike the way it runs it’s just perfect for me. The color is one of my best colors and there is no doubt I got a good buy. Also people at State Bicycle are extremely nice. Thank you very much for your help.
