Brooklyn Bicycle Co. Buy & Ride — Why every bike is assembled at a local shop

Most bikes you buy online arrive the same way: large cardboard box, Allen wrench taped inside, folded instruction sheet. You spend two hours on YouTube wondering why the handlebars won't sit straight. Brooklyn Bicycle Co. does it differently — and deliberately. Every Brooklyn Bicycle Co. bike ships directly to a local bike shop near you, where a professional mechanic assembles it completely before you ever touch it.

Thank you for the positive rating Eva. We're glad you love the bike bell. -Ryan Zagata

Perfect for a first time cyclist!

I got this as a belated birthday present, because I moved to a place next to a park and really wanted something to make the most of that with.

After about a month of use I can say it's the most comfortable bike I've ever had! The shop it was sent to set me up with everything I needed to ride it home, and made sure it was a perfect fit for me before I left.

I should add that I don't see myself using it in extreme terrain or rough weather, and the Franklin definitely seems to be made with that in mind. I can see it being a bit difficult to handle in rain or cold weather, but for a silly little trip to the farmer's market now and again, it's a perfect match!

Highly recommend for casual cyclists who want a stylish, affordable, and road-ready bike without skimping out on quality.

Thanks for sharing Ronan. We are thrilled to hear you're enjoying your Franklin 8 Speed. It sounds like a perfect fit for your adventures around the park. Thanks for recommending us. -Ryan Zagata

I am so happy with my Lorimer bike from Brooklyn Bicycle Co.

My first bike in a long time. I accidentally stumbled across Brooklyn Bicycle and I am sooo glad I did. Ryan and the team helped me choose my bike and just I love my Lorimer bike because it is light weight, fast, and very comfortable and easy to ride. It was so easy.. like riding a bike.

Hi Cynthia. We're thrilled to hear you're loving your Lorimer bike. We enjoyed working with you. -Ryan Zagata
