Schwag Grab! Win an Identiti Persona bike worth £600!- We have a winner

Freestyle fixer that also makes the ideal round town runabout could be yours

We have a winner! The fickle finger has spoken… well, pointed and soon there will be an Identiti Persona sized hole behind my desk. Sniff, I'm going to miss the big galoot. Actually not that big it's a 54 so, hopefully is our winner…

 

Step forward Wig9255

Hopefully it will fit Wig cos his profile says he lives in London and we'd like to think that the Persona will have fun frolicking in its natural habitat rather than being cooped up in our office where the opportunities for fixed freestyling are pretty limited and so is stylish running about town potential too.

In the meantime you can read on to find out more about what you could have won and we'll get on with hatching our cunning plan for the next road.cc Schwag Grab

The Persona combines orangey good looks with round town utility and style with that extra dash of adrenaline – this is bike built to hop on and start hopping about. Literally. One of the new breed of fixed freestyle machines that are coming to the streets of our big cities the ruggedness demanded for pulling tricks at the BMX park also means that it is more than capable of dealing with the rigours of urban riding too.

TR tested this bike a few weeks back, you can read his review here and he really liked it - he's not a big one for jumping off stuff (not any more anyway) but he is big on putting the urban miles in and he really liked the Persona. Made from 4130 Cro-mo steel this is a machine that should last for life – with those gussets at the head tube you are not going to break it any time soon and it also boasts Identiti's clever Taperlock dropouts too. Wheels are Halo Aerotracks with Halo Twin Rail tyres. You even get a Dia Compe front brake too. To find out more about the Persona visit the Identiti website.

This is the Identii Persona we tested – it is pretty much mint and it's a 54cm. If you'd like to give it a good home comment below. We'll select a winner next Monday – to give everyone something to look forward to and the usual Schwag Grab Rules apply.
