Impressed

I can’t say that I’ve ridden a more sturdy bike then the the Wythe, and the price for this type of quality is what really impressed me. Beyond happy!!

Thank you for sharing Martin. Our Wythe is a customer favorite for its simplicity as a low maintenance single speed. We're glad you're enjoying and thrilled to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

Driggs 8i Disc
George B. (Champaign, United States)
Another winner

Another bombproof bike with the increased flexibility of an eight speed.
Too bad that it doesn’t come with a rear rack.

'Bombproof' is a great description for our Driggs 8 and certainly one of the words we always have top of mind when designing for the streets, especially those as unforgiving as we have here in Brooklyn. For the carrier, while it doesn't come stock with a carrier, the mounts are all there for easy attachment and there are heaps of rear racks available on the market. Thanks again George. -Ryan Zagata

Great bike!

I love this bike, and two seas cyclery did a great job assembling it. super smooth, tires feel great against the new york road. Saddle is comfortable and the handlebars too. Feels very light but still sturdy.

Thank you Chris. We've got a tremendous stable of partners and Two Seas is no exception. We're glad you're enjoying the bike and find it both light & sturdy. -Ryan Zagata

Uptown USB Rechargeable Bike Lights
Christopher D. (Queens, United States)
They are great.

I love them. The rubber attachments make them super easy to put on and off which is crucial for city biking where you are leaving your bike in public very often.

We're so glad to hear that you love them and find the rubber attachments to be helpful for easy on and off. We understand the importance of convenience, especially for city biking where you're constantly leaving your bike in public. These lights definitely check that box. Thanks again for your feedback. -Ryan Zagata

Great bike; Great service

The bike shipped to my LBS in a timely manner and was well put together. I bought during the cold weather season so I really have not put any miles on the bike but it looks great and seems very sturdy and well built. I’ll update my review in the spring when I get some mileage on it. So far I love the bike, the service, and everything about the experience. I hope if I have any troubles you guys will take into account it didn’t get tried out for several months after purchase.
Look forward to a great relationship

Thank you so much for sharing Christopher. We've got your back. In the unlikely event you experience issues, we'll be here to help get you sorted. We're thrilled to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

Driggs 3

A Bike I like !

I got my Driggs Three in early December and a month later the winter weather gave way to warm almost spring like conditions and I have been riding my new bike almost every day . This bike is everything I wanted it to be . It’s comfortable and it rides like a dream . The thing I like most is its looks ! This bike does not have a garish or gaudy paint job . The matte black and a simple Brooklyn Bicycle Company decal on the top tube is all there is and a real , honest to goodness , head tube badge . Simple elegance . Maybe it’s just me but that head tube badge tells me that Brooklyn is proud of their bikes and they should be . The wheel set , brakes , crankset and Shimano Nexus three speed hub are all top quality . The fenders are steel and the fender stays are not flimsy . This is not a bike that will fall apart or rattle to pieces after a short time . I am very impressed with the durable quality of the Driggs 3 . If you want a Driggs 3 then get it . You won’t be disappointed .

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the bike, the paint job and the overall durability. We also appreciate the photo. Thrilled to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

This is a great bike!

This is a great bike for a 60 year old female! It’s lightweight and there’s just enough gears for getting around a college town, nothing complicated. Plus, it looks nice!

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback Leslie. While we're glad you're seeing the bike as a head turner, the feedback on the ride is where our team perks up. Glad to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

Everything you need, nothing you don’t

This bike is the most enjoyable ride I’ve had since my last bike, which is a Brooklyn willow 7 (cr-mo frame). I love the two Brooklyn bikes I have- simple, but good. I also love the Grant Petersen inspired frame geometries- comfortable but responsive, not sluggish. I am 76 yrs. old, and have ridden my whole life ( and owned all sorts of bikes).Brooklyn bikes are well thought out.

Thanks a bunch Robert - that's been our tagline 'Everything you need, nothing you don't' - glad you're feeling the same. We're thrilled to have you add another of our bikes to your stable. -Ryan Zagata

Happily tackling NYC

Brooklyn-native here. Beyond easy to order and get my bike from a local shop, Two Seas. Perfect for cruising my commutes. Stable, simple, and well-priced.

Thanks for sharing Shane. Love this photo and we love that you're putting the bike through the paces here in Brooklyn. Happy to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

Brooklyn Bicycle Co. Adjustable Rear Carrier
John L. (Oconomowoc, United States)
adjustability is a big plus

I haven't mounted it yet, because the bike is in the building stage, but it is similar to racks I have used in the past, plus the adjustability gives me options for placing eyelets, etc., on the new bike.

We appreciate you sharing your experience John. The adjustability of this carrier makes it easy to fit all size wheels as you suggest. -Ryan Zagata

amazing bike

It was made so easy to choose the right size for me and it got to me so much quicker than expected! Only problem was that it showed that my bike was ready when it wasn’t but overall a really great experience and definitely a great ride.

Driggs 8i Disc
TonyBoloni (Columbus, United States)
the Green Machine

I bought the bike for my commute in and out of downtown to work. It's the happiest purchase I've made in a long time.
Delivery was speedy and painless. Brooklyn arranged, as part of the purchase, to have the bike shipped to my local bike shop, only two blocks away, for assembly. That went smoothly and I picked the bike up, adventure ready, in only a few days.
The bike is Green but its purpose is Green as well. Commuting in and out of work, biking to the local Aldi and urban adventures in the city from a perspective no seen by many: bike level.
Physically the bike is a great fit. The bike shop adjusted the saddle to the perfect high.
Structurally its comfortable and welll built. As a tall man of a certain age and heft, I don't feel as if I am riding a toy nor driving a tank. I get on, pedal off and get on with life.

Thanks for sharing Tony. We're glad you're finding the bike sturdy enough for your frame but not tank-like. We've been there. Thrilled to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. Thanks again. -Ryan

Mary G. (Houston, United States)
Found the Perfect Ride!

My brother, a daily rider and commuter in Chicago was frustrated with finding a bike that could meet his needs for city riding while still being comfortable and adaptable for longer recreational rides. After much searching we came across the Driggs 8I Disc and it turned out to be the perfect fit.
Ordering was a breeze and it was delivered to his local bike shop (less than 1 mile from home!) for assembly and he was up and riding in under 10 days. It's comfortable, sturdy, has easy gear shifting and a very smooth ride and comfortable saddle.
Highly recommended for urban riders looking for durability and comfort!

Thank you for sharing Mary. We're thrilled to have your brother as part of our Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family out there in Chicago. Glad to hear he's making good use of the bike - Ryan Zagata
