Lawd bless these Dirt Jumps.

The boys at NYCMTB.com have launched a new website where you can find ride guides, updates on races, and all the chatter about bikes in the city, including tomorrows annual Blessing of the Bikes at St. John the Devine in Morningside heights:

Once riders get their bless on, they're only a few pedals away from the Highbridge trails, where the NYCMB crew will be busy digging trails. Come out, grab a shovel, and help shape up the park for another excellent summer of riding the only legal MTB trails in Manhattan.

Friday Night Lights

A few months ago one of us moved into a converted knitting factory closer to the shop. One of the rooms was filled with trash and and old fridge, and we found a better use for the space...

Southern Hemisphere Holla.



The good folks at Endless Trail Bikeworx shipped a pair of Brooklyn Racelinks to Costa Rica for a week of riding with Big Mountain Bike adventures.

"The trip was was filled with tight, super steep,fast, flowy trails with descents lasting up two hours. Our Racelinks ate it up with no problem as always! Everyone was amazed by the bikes, no one had ever scene one up close. Everyone we let try out the rigs were very impressed with the performance and handling of the bike."

Check out the ETBW Photo Gallery for more ride pics.

Fitty.

We're expanding our run of the XL 50cm Gangsta Track, the longest and tallest version of the Brooklyn fixed frame.
Stock colors are standard Black and Neon Orange which has been eye-searingly popular across Europe.

like this one out in France:
and this one to Italy:
The fit is akin to a roomy 58-60cm square frame, so if you're looking for a little BKLYN love in your big frame, give us a call and we'll get you rollin' soon.
