#1 CONCEPT
"The Fastest on the Street"
Leader is a fixed gear bike brand from California, USA, with a strong following worldwide. Under the concept of "The Fastest on the Street," it energetically creates urban fixed gear bikes, led by the thick aluminum aero frame of the 7 series.

#3 HISTORY
Leader's History and Journey
-
The Birth of Leader
Leader was founded in 1999 in San Diego, USA. At the time of its establishment, the company primarily manufactured and sold "road bikes" and "mountain bikes" rather than fixed gear bikes.
-
Meeting EMI BROWN
EMI, who was a messenger in San Francisco and an original member of MASH, had an accident during a shoot that broke his fork. At that time, he contacted SAL, the founder of Leader. SAL gladly accepted the request and immediately sent a replacement fork to EMI. From then on, EMI started riding a Leader. At that time, the "fixed gear culture" was still niche, a hobby for a select few enthusiasts. However, meeting EMI motivated Leader to fully commit to the fixed gear scene and progress with product development.
-
MASH SF DVD INTRO
MASH, the legendary fixed gear crew from San Francisco, released a video work in 2007. This sparked a fixed gear bike movement worldwide, positioning bicycles as "a part of lifestyle" and "a part of fashion," rather than just a means of transportation. Until then, the mainstream was slim silhouettes like NJS, so Leader's thick frame drew a lot of attention from those around.
A model that inherits the geometry of the 725 while incorporating a curved down tube to reduce air resistance. It is the first in Leader’s history to feature smooth welding on the welded parts.
