The 6061 Black Label v3 is a fixed-gear and single-speed bike from State Bicycle Co., made in a collaboration with Liquid Death. It is the standard v3 with new paint and dripping-skull artwork across the top tube. It comes in two colorways: 24 Karat Casket, which fades from black into gold with a gold-outlined wordmark and a gold skull, and Scary Strawberry, which fades from hot pink into black with a white wordmark.
Both colorways have a black carbon fork that fades into the frame color, with a skull-and-crossbones crown detail. They also have black wheels, a black cockpit, and the State wordmark in white down the length of the down tube. The frame is double-butted 6061 aluminum with a tapered head tube and internal cable routing. The frame and the 19mm internal-width wheels fit tires up to 38c, and the bike ships with Vittoria 30c tires.
The gearing is 48x17 on a CNC'd 144 BCD chainring and crank, so the chainring can be changed later. The flip-flop hub runs fixed or single speed. Front and rear caliper brakes are included.
