Jimmy is the story of a detour before returning to the essential.
So some time ago, he was already eyeing a Paula .
Fate handed him an opportunity from elsewhere, too good to ignore. He rode it, took advantage... and then the desire remained.
This time, no plan B: he wanted a Massacan above all, and especially a fixed gear.
From there was born his Fissa, a montage in his image, unique and brilliant.
Son vélo
Jimmy's Fissa is a real concentrate of energy.
In size S, with its raspberry paintwork that we already know from Lucie's Pianella , it is not lacking in character.
On this compact frame, the color takes on an even more vivid dimension: A bike made for trails!
For the wheels, Jimmy relied on our collaboration with Miche .
An original setup, disc at the front and fixed gear at the rear. Not the kind of combo you see every day.
The rims are those of the React road wheels and accommodate 32 mm Hutchinson Challenger .
Result: Comfort when the road is bumpy, but still enough responsiveness to keep up the pace.
The transmission remains simple and efficient with the Miche Pista Air crankset.
Up front, a TRP Spyre handles braking. And to keep things clean, the Ritchey Switch RL1 stem integrates the cable management directly into the cockpit. It's clean and tidy.
The rest of the cockpit is also signed Ritchey , in order to maintain real consistency, particularly with the Lock-On handles.
En conclusion
In conclusion, Jimmy's Fissa is an absolutely unique bike.
We find everything that makes up the essence of a fixed gear: A compact geometry, a high bottom bracket for pedaling without fear in the turns, and a rigid and responsive aluminum frame.
But it goes further, with options that you don't see every day: a custom paint job, the possibility of mounting a disc brake, accepting generous tires, and offering comfort and versatility that are rare on a fixed bike.
It's this mix that makes it a luxury daily: Capable of taking it to work every morning, but also ready to transform into a sprint machine with friends on the weekend.
A simple, beautiful, efficient bike, comfortable everywhere and quite simply unique.
