Bicycle Roots

Jeff Frane, the Original founder of All-City Cycles, knew he wanted to “do more” with his life, and worked his way through $7/hour bike shop jobs to found and operate one of the coolest bike companies in the world.

Last week, Claire visited our shop and rode off with one of the few remaining All City Space Horses - a bike she immediately connected with and looked incredibly comfortable and confident riding.

Bikes transport us in many ways – around the city, faster than the subway, into the office, towards our friends. They move us beyond the hum-drum of NYC winters, and help us find pockets of freedom on these rare 51 degree sunny days.

All-City closed their doors a few years ago, but we still have a run of their legendary bikes. Come ride one!
