Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Bombtrack Script. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

8 reasons to buy

  • The Script’s frame is commended for its stiffness, a factor that delivered an experience of economical energy transference to pedal-power, resulting in impressive acceleration.
  • Great presentation, that’s what a lot of owners say. This bike was lauded for its smooth welds and finish, with one expert gushing over the ‘sexy’ gray/black/blue color combo.
  • Componentry is simple on any fixed-gear bike, but what’s there on the Script, is recognized as great quality. The SRAM Omnium cranks received particular admiration.
  • A number of riders described it as either good or great value for money.
  • ‘High quality’, ‘sturdy’, ‘robust’, ‘rugged’ and ‘durable’ - all terms used to explain this machine’s integrity in construction.
  • Those so inclined, reported that the Script performed well on the velodrome as a pure track bike.
  • The riding position on this bike is intentionally aggressive and front-forward. That said, users and experts described it as a comfortable fit, seeing no need to replace the provided Velo saddle.
  • According to multiple reviews, its a delightfully lightweight rig.

3 reasons not to buy

  • A few reviews admonished Bombtrack for the lack of color options available for the Script.
  • While fast and adequate on dry, even roads, the provided Kenda tires were not tough on rough terrain, in the wet or against broken glass.
  • More than one owner highlighted the paint job’s lack of resilience, with one cyclist calling it ‘fragile’.

Bottom line

This is a well-loved bike. Owners reported back on their initial impressions of the Script with a sense of exhilaration and pure fun. With extended use, this ride continued to impress with the high quality and durability of its componentry and frame. It came across as a fast, smooth and tight package. If you’re able to nab one at the lower end of the price range, you can be pretty sure that you’ll receive satisfaction and longevity equivalent to a dozen bargain-basement fixies.

Product Review: BOMBTRACK Script 2017

I’m having trouble riding anything other than this… the feeling of just rolling around and having fun doing it, is definitely there. Stiff, light and fast…

Bombtrack Script: le Fixie des Courses Urbaines

This frame is quite rigid, which optimizes pedaling. All energy is transmitted to the wheels, instead of getting lost in the bending of the frame.
