DESCRIPTION
This striking Saffron Yellow single speed/fixie bike takes its name from the supermodels of the racing world, the Thoroughbred horse.
We designed this bike in our London workshop for comfort, reliability and style. The high tensile steel frame brings strength whilst also being easy to carry up stairs or lift onto storage racks. For those wishing to accessorise, all the Thoroughbred frames come with eyelets for mounting mudguards, basket, racks and bottles.
The stitched vegan leather seat and handlebar look great but also cushion hands and backsides on longer rides.
We believe it's important to use quality components as we want your bike to give you riding pleasure for years to come. Check out the specification below. We also offer a lifetime guarantee for every bike we sell.
Assembly
Bikes are delivered direct to you (or to your local bike shop if you prefer) in a big fully recyclable box. Its already 85% assembled so you'll just need to affix a few things including the seat, pedals and front wheel. Its easy to do but you can always call upon your local bike shop to do this for you if your prefer. Click here for our assembly guide.
If you live in London and would rather the professionals do the final assembly we can send your bike directly to your nearest Fettle bike shop. More info here.
WHAT IS A FIXED GEAR BIKE or SINGLE SPEED BIKE?
Read our blogpost for more information.
Fixie or Single Speed?
Our bikes are delivered as single speeds giving independent pedal movement. However, the rear wheel has a "flip flop" hub so if you want to ride as a fixie you will need to flip the rear wheel around, get yourself an 18 tooth fixed gear sprocket and lock ring, and fix this to the bike.
