Charge 'Spoon'


£25 odd quid dont buy us much these days, but check out the Charge 'Spoon' for a bargain saddle. It's a girt looker if you ask us here at Riparato. So much so we slapped one on our first build just to try out. It's pretty impressive looking, but is pretty comfortable too. The last thing you want on your mind while rinsing it through traffic is a sore arse right?

Ditch the car.....


When something as beautiful as this can be created by almost anyone who has the passion to do so, why would you even want to get in a car.... ever again. A true example of what a fixed gear commuter should look like!

Welcome to the Riparato Fixed Gear Blog


Welcome to Riparato Fixed Gear. Because we love fixed gear bikes!!!!
The first project undertaken by Riparato Fixed Gear was the Carlton Corsa frame you see here. We decided to strip the paint, and go for a real clean look. Stay tuned for shots of the final conversion.
