POLKA BIKES CYCLONE

Our Cyclone is a true fighter. If you want to be eyeball to eyeball with him, you will have to face meteoric acceleration, minimal rolling resistance and aggressive, combat attitude, which is reflected by a bloody red finishing. When ridinga Cyclone, it is rather impossible to stay unnoticed, but he is not the one who needs to hide away from anything…

Can oldschool fixies and singles be even lighter and faster? Polka Bikes proves that there are no limits! Pista is a series of bicycles with an unbelievably reduced weight and minimal rolling resistance. Road-style handle bar guarantees aerodynamic position, whereas a tougher gear allows to achieve racing speeds. In Pista we use sealed bearings, which makes our wheels spin even lighter. Sounds good? In Polka Bikes we do not forget about the details. Our frames are built using lugs – small steel profiles, which give our bikes noble and elegant looks.

24 months warranty for components, lifetime warranty for frame.

SPECIFICATION:

Our bikes all come with a flip-flop hub, which means they have a freewheel cog on one side of the rear wheel and a fixed cog on the opposite side. This means you get to choose whether you want to run free or fixed, and you also have the freedom to switch back and forth between fixed and freewheel anytime.

Let’s start with freewheel. Freewheel is what most riders are familiar with. If you pedal forward, you will move the bike forward. If you stop pedaling, the pedals will simply stop and you will coast, and if you pedal backwards…well, nothing much is going to happen.

Fixed gear, on the other hand, is slightly different. Fixed gear means that the motion of the pedals is directly connected to the motion of the rear wheel. If you pedal forward, the bike will move forward. If you stop actively pedaling, but the rear wheel is still turning, the pedals will continue to turn. This means there is no coasting, if that back wheel is spinning, so are the pedals. And if you apply reverse pressure to the pedals, you can slow the rear wheel, or move the bike backwards if starting from a stop.
