Price and styling earn European favourite ‘Fixies’ Irish devotees

A new range of fixed-gear bikes have hit the Irish market thanks to a Cork-based company, Prism Cycles.

The bikes, nicknamed ‘Fixies’, have become hugely popular throughout Europe given their price and the low level of maintenance required.

They are also attracting interest as potential purchasers can custom design their bike via the website, www.prismcycles.com.
