- Check this out! My Skream Anodiz has arrived, all the way from Hong Kong.
I have bought and sold a couple of fixies, but this is my first fixed gear frameset.
It’s an aluminium frame with a full carbon fork. It has low chain stays and some very uniquely shaped 6066-T6 aluminium tubes.
Corrections:
Chain stay only refers to the lower part of the rear triangle. The upper part is the seat stay.

Cant wait to see this beauty built up! Cheers from SG 🎉
Thank you! It’s going to be fun! Cheers from Sweden! :)
Yes a real person liking fixed gear bikes from Finland👋. These videos are so nice! I think it comes to at least few things:
- Familiar furniture, weather, atmosphere
- Casual guy just enjoying bikes and fixed gear
- raw / pure feel, no fancy edits or tricks.
- Giving honest thoughts
Thank you so much! That means a lot! I love that a person from Finland has the username moskito 😍 You gotta have a fast bike to escape from them! I will always try to keep my videos personal and honest, I feel like the most interesting videos are always about people testing and learning stuff :)
Nice new frame. Looking forward to the build.
Thanks! Yeah, it’s going to be fun! I have most parts ready for an initial build, but it will probably evolve over time.
love these types of youtubers who listens to their audience! Big love
Big love right back! The feedback and help from other fixed gear riders is the coolest thing about uploading videos :)
That whole blink-182 bit was lovely haha
You're the first person to notice! or at least the first to mention it :) How wild is it that is added up to 182 grams!?!?
@@addvurtbikes haha, how couldn't I notice! I already chuckled at "all the small things", and then the rest of it happened. Man of culture!
And yeah, it's wild that it did add up to 182, what are the odds :D
@@MarchuxProductions blink was sort of top of my mind last fall after the new album and seeing their show in Stockholm :)
@@addvurtbikes I was actually thinking of going to the Stockholm show, but tickets+travel was over 2x as expensive as Prague, so that's where we went :DD
Prague is super nice! I’m going to Vienna in June to see NOFX :) see you there?
hey i jst came across ur channel and i love the vibe and the video was super nicely filmed i cant believe ur channel doesnt have more fans love the vids man keep up the good work
Thanks! I appreciate it :) Considering that I started from zero, I’m actually pretty stoked about how much response I’m getting from the videos! But fixed gear is kinda niche and maybe not really in fashion like it was 15 years ago, so the topic might not be for everyone. Thanks for commenting!
hope you enjoy it!
Thanks! I’m sure I will :)
Very nice and clean frame. Im currently rocking a Fuji Stroll limited edition . Safe riding
Thank you! The Fuji Stroll looks really nice too! It seems like a good bike for long rides, with the steel frame and curved fork. Thanks for commenting!
@@addvurtbikes yeppp it works pretty well for commuting. thanks for interacting with viewers SUBBED!
Thanks again! Dude, it’s what I live for! I used to stream on twitch a lot. I’m all about talking to people :)
looks great!
Thanks! I’m excited to say the least, if only it didn’t snow like crazy 😭
Beautiful frame. A friend of mine has a Skream Ranger and he loves it. I like the story behind the colour scheme, things like that give a bike much more character. Glad my previous comment helped! Hope your buddy is still enjoying fixed gear too :)
Thanks! Yeah the ranger looks really strong, and it has some of the coolest paintjobs available. Which color does he have? Felix and I have a weekly group ride with some more people :) we usually do 30 kilometers or so, late at night after dinner! It’s a really good social workout
His is the anodiz blue/yellow colour. That sounds like a good time. I also have a big weekly group ride in my city too (Dublin) that I go to. Feels great riding streets in a group of 12+ people :)
Oh wow that sounds awesome! My group is usually 4-5 people and it’s a very mixed group with fixies, roadies and even some e-bikes. We usually go to a drive-thru and buy hamburgers on the rides 😍
Not sure if this is on the recent skream frames, but they're very known to have paint cracking after use, also based off of my experience with this exact frame/colorway but in a medium they also chip really easily
Yeah, I have already seen a small paint chip, but I’m not too worried about that. It’s not a museum bike. My Ribble also chips easily, but it doesn’t make it ugly, just gives it a cool patina in my opinion :)
Otherwise with these frames i've had nothing but good experiences
@@addvurtbikes
That’s nice to hear. It’s gonna be a long long winter before I can get back to regular riding :(
I need to have a frame with catppuccin theme
Haha heck yeah! There are some really nice matte pastel frames out there. Like the Dosnoventa yellow, and also the discontinued Santafixie Ravals Anthozoa and Hydrozoa!
Nice frame 😮 . Does it come with the headset? Im thinking of getting one too
yeah, headset and seat post collar. Thanks! I like it so far!
maybe silver components looks good on that color
Oh yeah, I agree! I want silver rims and spokes, but at the moment I only have silver spokes on black deep rims, so that’s what I’ll start with. But yeah, seat post, cranks, etc would be nice with silver for sure!
drilled for front&read brakes? 👉👈
yes, it's drilled both in the frame for rear brake and in the fork for front brake :)
:)!!
I was wondering when the smiley face would be commented! Thank you! 😅 Have a great day!
