15 Years. 0 Compromises.

The Safest Bike Is the One Built Right.

Most safety features are things you never see - until you need them. We've been engineering them in from day one.

Two kinds of safety. We take both seriously.

Some safety features are obvious, disc brakes, reflective tires, bright colors. Others are invisible, the torque on every bolt, the true of every wheel, the geometry that keeps you upright in traffic. At Brooklyn Bicycle Co., we've spent 15 years engineering both kinds into every bike we build.

Built-In Safety

What you see. What you don't.

The Most Important Safety Feature You'll Never See

A bike is only as safe as how it's assembled. That's why every Brooklyn bike is professionally built by a certified local mechanic, brakes adjusted, bolts torqued, wheels trued, before you ever ride it. No DIY guesswork. No box-arrive-and-hope. It's included in every order because it's not optional.

Reflective tire stripe for night visibility
Visible

Never Invisible. Even at Night.

Our tires feature a built-in reflective stripe that bounces light back toward its source, no batteries, no switches, always working. Our frame decals use retroreflective film, the same technology in street signs. Subtle by day. Impossible to miss at night. It's the kind of visibility you don't think about until it matters.

Brooklyn bicycle testing
Proven

Tested on the Toughest Streets in America.

Before any Brooklyn bike earns its headbadge, it's tested on the streets of Brooklyn, potholes, cobblestones, curbs, taxis, traffic. If it survives here, it'll handle anything. 15 years of riding our own bikes is the most honest safety test we know.

Safety Questions, Answered

Every Brooklyn bike is fully assembled by a certified mechanic at a partner bike shop near you. That means brakes adjusted and tested, all bolts torqued to spec, wheels trued, drivetrain perfected, and a full safety check before you pick it up. It's included in every order at no extra charge.
Two things: first, our tires feature a built-in reflective stripe on the sidewall that bounces headlights back toward drivers, no batteries, always on. Second, our frame decals use retroreflective film (the same material in road signs) that lights up under direct light. Both are passive, permanent, and require zero maintenance.
We wouldn't sell a bike without both. Some brands ship fixie or single-speed bikes with only front brakes, or none at all. Every Brooklyn bike comes with front and rear brakes because stopping power isn't negotiable.
We offer a lifetime warranty on the frame and fork against manufacturing defects, for the life of the bicycle. We also have a 30-day Love at First Ride promise: if you don't love your bike within 30 days, we'll do our best to make it right.
Every model is ridden and tested on the streets of Brooklyn before it ever gets sold. Potholes, curbs, cobblestones, rain, traffic, the works. We ride our own bikes. That's the most honest quality test we know.
