Prior to linking up for the above custom “City Bike,” designer Gabe Ricioppo of Need Supply Co. and Tim Mullins of Carytown Bicycle Co. knew little of each others’ respective trades aside from the shared location of the twosome’s Virginia-based brick & mortar shops. Although the fixed gear and fashion communities of the town shared many of the same bike-riding, aesthetic-obsessed friends and colleagues, a successful project would require a next-level degree of brainstorming and creative collaboration. The duo’s hard work has certainly paid off with the unveiling of the custom-commissioned City Bike. Built off of a 58cm All City Big Block and custom NSC/CBC painted frame, the bicycle boasts a simplistic minimal approach rarely seen on high-end fixie builds. Offering custom-sizes and slight variations to the base build, the Need Supply Co. x Carytown Bicycle Co. City Bike is now available with a price tag of $2,400 USD.
