What we are

A new kind of race series

Professional cycling has global appeal but its legacy formats were built for the newspaper era. Long races, open roads, fragmented broadcasts. None of it fits how modern fans discover and follow sport.

Formula Fixed fixes that. We concentrate fixed-gear racing into an arena setting — making the sport fully visible, fully capturable, and built to travel across every screen and platform it lands on.

01
Fixed gear, no brakes
5-minute elimination heats. No coasting, no braking. Pure output and pure commitment — a format that demands bold moves, tight gaps, and frequent contact.
02
Built for broadcast
Closed-course arena venues mean the entire race is visible from a single vantage point. Purpose-built for drone, POV, and broadcast cameras — every corner is a clip.
03
Creator-led storytelling
48 athletes with built-in followings. Rivalries with real narratives. Formula Fixed treats sport as content — not an afterthought, but the core distribution strategy.
04
A community, not just a circuit
Rooted in the culture that already exists — bike messengers, criterium racers, BMX, cyclocross. Formula Fixed doesn't import an audience. It builds from one.

Reach the audience brands are chasing
Formula Fixed sits at the intersection of sport, street culture, and social media. Our audience skews young, engaged, and underserved by legacy sports — with strong overlap into motorsports and action sports fans. Brand integration is native to the content, not bolted on top of it.
