General Info

NYC Velo is located in the East Village ( 2nd Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets ). Owner Andrew Crooks, with the help of his family and friends, and Freecell Architecture, restored the space's architectural elements and converted it into the most unique bike shop in Manhattan ( see pictures featured on nyvelocity.com ). We believe a bike shop should be more than just a store - it should be a place for cyclists. NYC Velo is proud to have the first bike lounge in Manhattan, where cyclists can hang out, read a magazine, and enjoy a free espresso from our Giro d'Italia Giotto. Our knowledgeable staff will help you select and size the right bicycle for you, whether you race, commute or just bike for fun and exercise. We will ensure that your bike is fitted properly so that you have the best ride possible. You can choose from a wide variety of styles and brands including Scott, Felt, Kona, and Bianchi. We sell parts and accessories that really work, and we know they work because we use them. In addition to sales, we offer comprehensive bike repair services. Our trained mechanics can quickly and accurately fix virtually any bicycle ailment as well as professionally install components. Our priority is to deliver superior customer service by catering to each customer's needs, offering helpful service and advice, and treating each customer as a valued member of the NYC Velo community. Our staff of experienced cyclists can help you get involved in the cycling community as well as recommend local rides. NYC Velo also supports various local and regional race teams, both on and off road. We proudly sponsor the, FGX Racing and Jonathan Adler teams. Additionally, NYC Velo sponsors a team of elite mountain and cyclocross racers under the shop's banner. The NYC Velo Racing team consists of Matt Budd, Troy Ostrander, and owner Andrew Crooks.
