DC is proud to introduce the PK Ripper Fixed Gear, the third installment in a series of limited edition bike projects from DC and SE Racing, all designed to embrace the heritage of the brand and the sport. A collector’s item, the PK Ripper Fixed Gear bike production will be limited to only 2,500 bikes worldwide. The Fixed Gear collaboration mixes a touch of 1970’s bike nostalgia with modern bike performance features. Inspirations for the PK Ripper Fixed Gear bike‘s design aesthetic stem directly from the original DC x SE Racing PK Ripper collaboration. The new fixed gear bike design details are directly inspired from the classic PK Ripper BMX bike, complete with Floval tubing, Landing Gear fork and Looptail rear end. This blend of old school BMX and a modern fixed gear bike not only takes its cues from the PK Ripper BMX construction but also its colorways—Matte Black and Ball Burnished Silver.
This issue of BMX Plus! was taken to the FISE to do a review on it when I would find a moment. I shared a room with Andy Zeiss and riders were coming in and out all weekend long. In this time the magazine disappeared. Andy is now on tour with the Vans Europe crew so I might see it in the end. Luckily the BMX Plus! site has the contents list of the July issue online. Here it is. And when I get the issue back you can ask me what I thought of it. BMX PLUS! magazine JULY 2009: *Premium Frame Test *DK Aura Bike
