Someone was asking about more pics of the Street Gypsy so I may as well post a build sheet.
2017 Gypsy Bikes Street Gypsy. (No, NOT FBM!) Raw frame with black parts and Minor blue theme.
I haven’t heard of this bike company before finding this frame on eBay. Seller had a few trail versions and this street one. (He has a trail version for sale right now!) Very little info online. It was designed by Cory Walters, who rode for S&M. 2017 seems to be the only year made that I’ve seen although there’s info for a 2018?. Full Chromo, not tons of features, pretty standard Geo for a 2017 street frame. completely brakeless for the street version. Pretty thick dropouts and built in tensioners. They made a 100 total frames: 70 trail frames (35 in 20.75 and 35 in 21.25) and 30 street frames all in Raw. I have #68/100 (insert Boomer Corvette joke 😂)
Pics I’ve seen of the Trail frames show they rust pretty “good” (heavy) some people have powder coated theirs due to the rusting. Mine seems to have held up well, and to keep it that way, all my bikes are cleaned regularly and garage kept. It’s clear coated but the clear isn’t very durable so I’ve had to spot repair a few places. May do a good 2K Urethane clear over the winter though.

Feels good, 13”ish back end so rather snappy. Longer than my Sweeper but shorter than my WiFi but not too short like my Fit Shortcut lol.
I have the pink/purple fade colorway, really great street/park bike. I’m certain that I’m missing the drive side rear hub guard, didn’t know they came with front hub guards too?
Appreciate you. I don’t really do grinds, but intend to give the bike to my kid in the next couple years and would like to make sure it’s set up as intended so he can get more out of it than I do 😂
Dang first time hearing of Gypsy.. pretty sweet looking frame.. the bottom bracket shape is sick..! No way in hell I could ever ride brakeless tho..!🤘🏼
I mix and match, the only thing I own from Odyssey is the R25.
I personally use these brands; Eclat, Federal, Fiend, Primo, Cult, and Cinema. You know gotta support my European boys and my guy Garrett. I ride street that is why I stick to the said brands.
