Brown Jersey ISLINGTON



The Islington is all class.   

The heart of any bike is the frame - the heart of the frame is the material it's made from. Reynolds 725 CrMo is a very nice material indeed - heat treated and double butted meaning that the gauge of the tubing varies along it's length, thicker where is needed (joins) and thinner where it's not - end result is a frame that is both lighter AND stronger. The 'Islington' however, is not just about the Reynolds 725 it's made from it's about art of refined bicycle design.  The geometry of this bike is all about the rider experience - treading the line between performance and comfort is somewhat tricky, but when it is done correctly the end result is bicycle magic and that is exactly what the 'Islington' is all about.

Finished in very deep coloured blue (Blue Nights) with the details in shades of silver it's an elegant look that will stand the test of time.

The standard bike is available in 5 frame sizes and is equipped with full Shimano Tiagra 10S group, Weinmann wheels and just enough polished alloy to make the package shine ...all for $1585.

If you're up for an upgrade, no problem. A full Shimano 105 11s 'Islington' will set you back $2,445 or a full Shimano Ultegra 11s 'Islington' is available at  $3,145.  Other custom builds by request.

If you're after a classic bike with no compromise on ride performance and quality then this is the bike for you!

Fixies with Colour are back!

Those with a keen eye will have noticed something on the city streets in the last few months that we haven't seen in a few years - colours on bikes!  More to the point there is an incoming tide of fixie riders who are totally not afraid to express their personal tastes with a small, subtle splash of colour (like anodised coloured hubs on a set of nice single speed wheels) or even a full on assault of very bright cranks, rims, handlebars, seat posts, bells, helmets, frames, grips, bartape, saddles and virtually every other part of their fixie ride....

We love it.

Check out our custom 'Divvy Van' fixie with high profile violet anodised rims, violet anodised Novatec Sealed Bearing hubs, violet Brown Jersey 'Scaracen' chains, Thickslick tyres and all the goods.

Handbuilt Fixie Wheels



Recently arrived we have a good supply of Weinmann SEC16 double wall rims (black with CNC machined braking surface), Novatec sealed bearing high flange anodised coloured hubs and Stainless MACH 1 spokes (silver or black).  What are we doing with all of this high quality gear?

Good question, but the answer is even better!  We're hand building some excellent and very stylish fixie wheels.  So if you want to add a bit of high end styling to your fixie or single speed bike these new handbuilt fixie wheels are an excellent start.   A great addition to any Brown Jersey or Cinelli fixie bikes (or any other single speed bike for that matter).

The rear hub is a flip-flop hub - meaning that you can ride fixed gear one side or flip the wheel over and have a freewheel on the other side.
