I went really far and wide on my search to find my first ideal fixed-gear bike, such as snooping around Kaskus and going around Jakarta looking at bikes. Doesn't sound bad, right? I got to meet nice guys with nice bikes, exchanged pleasentaries, and all that.. but then i grew tired of looking. Lucky for me @muliawardhana took me to this place called B-Bike.
B-Bike is located at Jl. RS. Fatmawati No.2a, Cilandak Barat, Jakarta. Position to be exact is next to Bank BCA Fatmawati and Boloo2 Restaurant. Their phone number is (021) 7590 3122.
At one time they specialize in Mountain Bikes only and didn't have a lot to brag about when talking about fixed gears. They did however, have a couple of fixed gear selections available. You can see in my previous post http://pedal2infinity.blogspot.com/2011/02/telor-asin-aka-salty-egg-my-first-fixed.html
I hear now they have a new section in the shop that specializes in fixed gear bikes. Who could blame them, it's the IN thing right now. FYI i don't consider biking as a fashion statement, it's a sport and will always be one no matter how trendy or fashionable it can get :)
Overall, this shop is top notch! Whether you're looking to build a MTB from scratch or getting a full bike, there's a lot of stuff here you can get to suit your budget. They have the parts for you, regardless of your riding style and preferences (MTB, downhill, XC, DJ, etc). The shop interior is cozy, and surrounded by culinary spots to suit your appetite.
Check it out for yourself, or check out the pics below..
So there you go. Have fun shopping. But most importantly: happy riding!
