The wide sweeping effect of fixed gear riding has resulted in the creation of Mishka's own fixed gear team of riders. The Death Adders Road and Track (D.A.R.T) Cycling Team groups together some of the areas most prominent and innovative riders around, in hopes they bring a sense of innovation and creativity to the sport. For the Brooklyn based brand, a bike team was a natural progression for an aspect of their every day culture.

In a recent Air Force 1 Silver Service display at London's Dover Street Market, the design collective, the Wilson Brothers created a handmade fixed gear bike to celebrate the AF1. How the two are related, I'm not sure, however a short documentary will also be featured documenting the construction of the bicycle with an ad campaign to follow.
