Brooks Brompton folding bicycle

Brooks leather cycling gear goes together perfectly with a classy folding bike like the Brompton. These two English companies pair together like tea and crumpets and compliment each other famously. We like the combination so much we created our own custom Brooks Brompton folding bike with a Brooks leather saddle, the challenge leather tool bag, leather grips, and beautiful wooden fenders.

The whole Brooks Brompton folding bike effuses an air of sophistication, class, and refinement. If you're looking for a folding bike that looks great and has the highest quality accessories available, you should definitely look into pairing Brooks leather gear with a Brompton folding bike.

Dahon Vector X10, perhaps my favorite Dahon bike

The Dahon Vector X10 is one of the coolest folding bicycles I've ridden. It's light, portable, simple to use, and a lot of fun. Not only is this a bike that can be ridden on weekends for fun, you will also have no problem carrying it up a few flights of stairs. That's why we see a lot of interest in this folding bike from people who maybe can't carry as much weight.

BUSC 2011: Brompton US Championship Video

Did you see the 2011 Brompton US Championship video? It was a close race this year but in the end the returning champion took first once again. Peter from NYCeWheels made a good attempt at the coveted round trip ticket to England for the Brompton World Championship but ran out of steam during the final hill climb, yielding to Arron Ritz firm resolve.

But the BUSC is about more than just a race, it's also about fun, about friendship, and about having a good time. The real winners of the event were the best dressed trio from India and our own Stephanie Gross. These few challengers made the extra effort to show their costuming capabilities and came away with handsome Brooks Barbican leather bags to show for it. Good show!

Mark unloads a shipment of IF Modes

The IF Mode bike is one of our most popular folding bicycles. Despite it's high ticket price range the IF Mode bike seems to always be able to attract those riders looking for a bit more flash and a unique, almost sculptural frame design. Although these bikes tend to sell pretty fast we've been able to keep them in stock.

If you've never seen the IF Mode bicycle in action you should definitely check out the IF Mode product video to see how it folds. The simple and elegant "integrated folding" hinge design is pretty amazing to behold. With one motion you open the bike, and with another you close it.

NYCeWheels Group at 5 Boro Bike Tour

It was a mixed bag at this year's 5 Boro Bike Tour. We had a group of 18 Brompton folding bikers out and about on the tour, tickets courtesy of Bert (owner of NYCeWheels). With 32K riders it was packed and over flowing, with a lot of walking, but despite the crowded conditions we still managed to have a blast.


From riding our Brompton bikes over the Queensboro Bridge, to baking in the sun on the BQE, it was a day of unusual encounters and surreal locations. Not what you'd get on the everyday cruise around NYC. Want to try a Brompton for yourself? Sign up on our folding bike event calendar to join one of our Brompton folding bike NYC tours.

Dahon has made some changes to their most popular folding bike, the Mu P8. Amazingly the company has managed to improve on their already well put together design and the 2011 Mu P8 is better than ever. Here's a quick peak at what's new:

• Newer, stronger rims. The 2011 Mu P8 rims have a box profile that adds to their stiffness for greater durability.
• Schwalbe Supreme tires. With less tread than Schwalbe Marathon tires the Schwable Supremes make for a bit of a faster ride.
• Alloy folding bike pedals. These replace the plastic folding pedals of previous models of Mu P8 folding bike.

That's not all, learn more about the 2011 Mu P8 and see for yourself why everyone loves this folding bike.

Electric bike conversion kit

Many people cite the high price of a bike with motor assistance as a major drawback. However, if you compare this with the price per year of a gasoline-powered bike like a vespa, the bike with electric motor power will win out in a landslide. It's less than half the price! The most common misconception is measured in one-time payments.

A bike with motor power costs a lot more at one time, but there is no need to make additional payments for years afterward. Something that requires gasoline has many small payments involved every week just to keep it running! Compare the costs for yourself - you'll be pleasantly surprised.
