Tommaso Augusta Old School Track Bike

Tommaso Augusta Old School Track Bike

Tommaso Augusta Old School: With the major success of the classic black Tommaso Augusta the product team over at Tommaso thought it was time to release a limited edition model into the Augusta famiglia (family). In contrast to the all black Augusta Ninja comes the Augusta Old School in apple green. Together with the silver components and the leather accents this bike is Old School all the way. Simplicity is the genius behind the fixed gear bike. No shift or brake cables to adjust. No derailleur to tempt your concern. Like jeans and a t-shirt over a suit and tie…its just what you want. The Tommaso Augusta is a simple soulful frame with a few necessary parts to make up the complete machine. The spirit of the Augusta Old School is the strong steel frame with minimal logos, silver deep dish wheels, hand sewn leather grips, silver riser handlebar, silver seatpost, silver -18 degree quill stem, one inch threaded fork and brown leather colored saddle. Tommaso worked hard on getting the look just right. Yeah, weve all seen the ugly “commercial bikes holding the dust off the floor at the local shops. This is a departure from the bandwagon-jumping companies making cookie cutter bikes just to fill a spot in (more…)

A blacked out frame with minimal logos, blacked out deep dish wheels, black drop handlebar, black tape, black stem, black seatpost, black seat… Yes, that why we call it the Ninja, and there is nothing stock looking about it! We may have some favoritism here but we think this is the best looking steel track bike available on the market. This is the real deal…not some bike produced to jump on the bandwagon. Yeah, weve seen all the ugly “commercial bikes holding the dust off the floor at the local shops. A special note to my hipster friends: We can continue to save money and put it towards beer, messenger bags, concert tickets and laundering our dirty white t-shirts and denim because the Ninja is (more…)
