SE DC x PK Ripper Fixed Gear
After years in the making, it’s finally here: the SE x DC PK Ripper Bike.
With SE Bike’s successful collaboration on the PK Ripper a while back, this full sized fixed gear bike is another milestone for both companies.
Using 6061 aluminum floval tubing on its frame with chromoly fork, this single speed bike will be an indestructible bike for the trick minded. Equipped with Oury Mountain Grips, SE Lightning Blitz Seat with bottle opener, Velocity Deep V wheels, Vittoria Rubino Pro and whole lot of other quality goods, this is an awesome set up.
Matte black and ball-burnished colorways are available now.

SE Single Speed Fixed Gear Bike
SE Bikes racing history started over 35 years ago in 1970 when teenage entrepreneur Scot Breithaupt began promoting “Pedal-Cross” races in Long Beach, CA. Today their roots are still in BMXing and racing, but they are now famous for their SE single speed collection.
For 2009 SE Bikes continues to push forward, and whereas the 2008 models where just single speed, 2009 sees the addition of a flip flop hub, allowing for a quick change between the two options.
The SE Fixed Gear Range starts with the entry-level Draft Lite. At £300 nicker, they are the possibly the best value entry level Single Speed bike on the market today and are available in the stealth Midnight Black and Punk Pink.
If you’re after something with a bit more pedigree, then either the Lager or Premium Ale is the urban designed single speed bike that has the spec for you. Whilst the Lager features a 100% Cr-Mo frame and Tektro brakes, SE Bikes have thrown everything including the kitchen sink at the at the Premium Ale, which features a 100% Cr-Mo Lugged Design Double Butted Main Frame and Pazzaz Alloy Double Butted Track Bar.
