This is a build that I planned for a year. A bike that I built for my girl. Although this ain’t a fixed gear.. because I’m afraid she might fell into an accident. But almost all specs are compatible for a fixed gear build. The frame is Single Speed/Track Frame. I used a coaster hub to give it a clean brakeless look while still having a brake.
I carefully planned and chose the components for this. Almost every day, I search and scroll through every buy and sell group and facebook marketplace to find the components I need. Fortunately, I got all the components that I want and even exceeded all of my needs.Each part of this bike has a unique tale to tell, which is what makes it special. Each component originated from a distinct person and a different region of the country.
If I’ll be naming this bike, I’ll name it Hiraya. I know it sounds cliche for some Filipino redditors out there, but Hiraya really makes sense for me. To our foreign friends, Hiraya means Hope. So the thing is, whenever I see or heard the word “Hiraya” a pink color comes in my mind.It’s because I have this condition called Color Grapheme Synesthesia, in which I see colors on all letters and number. (You can conduct additional study on this.) The color of letter H for me is pink and so does the word Hiraya. Do I make sense? But that’s it. I want my girl to carry and ride with Hiraya (Hope).

This is a really nice bike. Don’t lock the bike in public or else it will be stolen in less than 30 seconds at least in my city..
