Chipps Chippendale (real name William Henry James Chippendale III) is a mountain biking journalist in the UK. After a stint as a bicycle messenger his journalistic career started in 1994 with UK magazine MTB Pro which he worked on for five years. He is the founding editor of Singletrack Magazine, a publication he created with Mark Alker and Shaun Murray in 2001.

He is generally credited with popularising singlespeed mountain biking in the UK ^{[citation needed]} - an idea he claims to have stolen from Bike magazine editor Mike Ferrentino - and is a collaborator in The Outcast, an underground singlespeed fanzine.

Chippendale is a descendant of furniture maker Thomas Chippendale.
