It is a custom frame built by Serrota for a group of messengers in the bean. Track geometry and rear fork ends, bottle mounts and drilled for brakes. Super fresh.
I was like 8 years old when I saw that movie, I wanted to be a messenger so bad. That and an astronaut. But hey, some things are a little more feasable than others. Still not a messenger, still not an astronaut, damn.

I could have swore that was a stunt double. Damn, I wonder how many times ol' Kev ate shit trying those tricks. You cant just pick up a fix and ride backwards spinning your bars in one day.
Notice in the part when he races the other guy whose name I cant remeber(pot) his bike goes from fix to songlespeed with brakes and back several times. Ahh movies, the false reality.
The best tires Ive had so far are the conti ultra 3000s, i go through the vittoras like a hot knife through buttah. That twisted spoke shit is diznope. gonna hafta bite that shit.
