My return to Arizona led me to my friend Skrilla’s stable. When we were getting into bikes we rode cheap Pista’s and conversions but Skrilla was able to snag just about any bike you would have drooled over at that time. Oh, and he has all of these still with the addition of his newer Road Bikes. Glad he let me snag these shots of his bikes to use for this post. Enjoy.

Cannondale Track – Original

All the way down to the Superbe hubs this Cannondale Track beauty is shining. Skrilla still has the original tubular hoops but switched to the clencher hoops for a more practical city ride. What a beauty!

Cannondale Track – Gold Anodize

This one took some abuse to the top tube so he decided to anodize it in this fresh gold color. Still looks pretty.

Cannondale Track – Sticker Book

You have to have the hyphy, stickered out SF version if you have the other two. So dope.

Gan Well Pro – Carbon Fiber Evasion

You thought the first three C’Dales were a trip and then you see this Gan Well Pro carbon fiber delight. Wow! I’d love to see some carbon fiber wheels on this thing and some more up to date, weight weenie, components.

Cinelli – Vigorelli

This is the last and more of a standard build for his bikes. As you can see with the use of the Aerospokes and the last bike release being the Vigorelli, Skrilla has been out of the bike game for a minute but his stable is still strong. Imagine coming across this in one person’s possession! Bonkers.

Skrilla

Here he is, Skrilla, to put a face to the name. Thanks for the tour dude!

My friends at Fyxation are right on the money when they say they make your bike look better. I am in the middle of a super sexy, grocery getter build that I am putting together with some parts I gathered from Fyxation.

Also, they are giving away a free bike, yeah, a free bike from State Bicycles.

From Fyxation:
“Since we’ve started Fyxation, it’s been our goal to produce components that let you personalize your ride with quality, affordable bicycle parts. With the 2012 cycling season underway, we decided to put together a video that visualizes what is possible. We have loads of new components available now just in time to enjoy the unseasonably warm weather.

In conjunction with the video release we will also be giving away one of the complete bikes from the shoot courtesy of State Bicycle Co. (parts and all) to one of our Facebook friends. Not a fan, sign up, already a fan you’re in! We’ll be posting photos of different builds over the next 7 days and on March 21st, someone’s getting a new bike. Head over to our Facebook page to check out the builds.”
