ƒ₈ cycles




custom fixed, single-speed, and internal hub belt drive bicycles

Form over function over form.

f8 began as a search for the ultimate fixed ride through the rough streets of San Francisco. Simplicity and durability were paramount. Designing a bullet-proof frame became an obsession.

The obsession paid off. f8 became the first to offer a belt drive fixed gear, in titanium no less. And less than you’d normally pay for a custom titanium frame.

The obsession continues with a focus on the little things that make a big difference. We offer extras like custom keyed bolts to prevent your bike from being parted out. (The Mission district can be tough.) With our system, you can lock your bike up the old-fashioned way–a single lock on the frame, wiithout having to lock the wheels.

Using exotic materials, tried and true technologies, and a simplified design, our bikes are built to be ridden.
