Scoping out some cycling shoes to bring into the shops, thanks to Chris Ballard for coming in with a solid merch sample and a dozen donuts. We're mostly leaning towards road shoes - any thoughts? I'm lovin these green and orange cross shoes!! Also check the bright green arch support wrap around tech, wild stuff #fizik #clipless #enjoythesunandair #highwaytwo
#Repost @lollytao All these years of waiting, I have finally got you. #tokyobike#dreambike @tokyobike.us
Shop closed Thursday & Friday (24th, 25th) - open normal hours this weekend. Here is our final delivery of bikes for 2020, and we are grateful as it has been a hard year for getting restock in the USA, thanks @tokyobike for helping us get folks on bikes!! #enjoythesunandair
Shopping for a bike lover? Know someone that just got their first bike? !!
Shop Small Business <3
At the end of May 2020 Daniela came in to get a repair done on her beautiful Colnago. While looking around she noticed we had a couple small road bikes in stock. She got really excited about the idea of surprising two sisters who worked at her restaurant @atlanyc with new bikes. They were her only two employees didn’t have bikes or some other safe way to commute through the pandemic. She pulled the trigger, bought the two bikes, and we arranged to deliver them before the two ...sisters showed up to work. I think the photos tell the rest of the story well enough... I’m not crying, you’re crying! **If you order food, order directly through the restaurant over phone or their email. If they don’t have their own delivery staff, maybe pick up!** Been waiting to post this tear jerker of a story. Now seems like a good time seeing as ending indoor dining means restaurants are in trouble. If you have ever worked in a restaurant, you know what restaurant family is like. I know mine still has my back even though the restaurant closed a few years ago.
Today it’s colder so here’s a sunny day photo with the best smile!! The multi talented (musician, play writer, educator, author) @amyraleon came through in May to get a basket for her bike, and couldn’t resist this Coastal Blue @explorethousand helmet that matched her outfit perfectly! Thank you for shining bright
We’ve got a lot of new lights in, some of the coolest have to be the @lezyneofficial Alert LED rear lights, they feature a deceleration detector changing brightness and pattern speed upon deceleration to alert drivers and other cyclists behind you. We also stocked up on a bunch of super nice front lights with your choice of lumens up to 1000!! ALL USB RECHARGEABLE!
Looking for the perfect commuter? Want to look super stylish getting from point A to point B? We have @tokyobike.us in stock, plenty to choose from... sizes, colors, and styles!
Is it spring? Sure felt like it in the shop today! Busy busy. Lauren came through and picked up this awesome @tokyobike.us Classic Sport in Ivory. Thank you @pacific0cean happy new bike day!!
Whoa! This is a bit of a throwback, back in October we did this super fun build, putting a @crustbikes Clydesdale fork on a sweet old Univega. @amongst.the.ash came to us with the dream of the ultimate dog bike, and we are excited to see it in action!! COME TO US WITH YOUR CUSTOM BUILD IDEAS! - (first photo @chrisryanaction)
Spooky day today! Spud is ready with some treats at the shop for kiddos! #happyhalloween - #gospudgo #shopdog #enjoythesunandair
Perfect sunny day for a new bike day! @shessomickey came by to pick up her new @tokyobike.us so, I guess now when she’s not busy hosting Join The Party on the @multitudeshows pod cast you might catch her rolling in the streets! HAPPY NEW BIKE DAY!
Not just new bikes, also custom builds on frames you love. From consult to build we’ve got you! Thank you for trusting us with this project @layo_e hope you have as much fun riding it as we did building it!
Hard to believe four years have passed since our initial build out. So thankful to our community, staff and customers who’ve supported us. We are especially grateful to @keithgarrison who’s always worked so hard on behalf of the cycling community. From all his help with our shops, to cx practice, the @kingkogsunandaircx team, and this summer with open streets. Thanks Keith!!
We’ve got some kids in! 12 inch balance bikes for $169 and 14 inch complete with training wheels for $229. There’s still plenty of summer left to enjoy some family biking @ Sun and Air
In solidarity with the protests we are closed today. If you are looking for more information on the current civil action in New York stay up to date with @justiceforgeorgenyc
We stand in unequivocal solidarity. #justiceforgeorgefloyd #blacklivesmatter
We have just a few bikes left after the holiday weekend- if you’re still looking for a reliable, safe way to get around NYC we have a Small red TREK FX 3 799$, Small moss green tokyobike 825$, and Medium Linus pronto matte indigo 699$. These are available today- if you have any questions please come to the shop. We cannot hold inventory at this time. @ Sun and Air
Finished building this bike up today and it hardly touched the shop floor before it was out the door! We have a couple more @linusbike Rovers available, come test ride this super stylish bike! happy #newbikeday
Not all super hero’s wear capes - but they do wear masks! #enjoythesunandair
How about that feeling when someone walks up to our shop and describes the kind of bike they are dreaming of, you ask them to wait outside for you and when you walk out with the exact thing they were dreaming of in a color they love sparks fly!! That’s is exactly how this story started, enjoy your #newbikeday @saraelana
As soon as they are built up the @linusbike’s are flying out the door. This had to be one of the best impulse buy moments finding the perfect bike for errands and then a weekend by the beach. Enjoy your #NewBikeDay!
We miss our neighbors and hanging out with friends, we miss the pump track, and birthday parties...but at least for the moment we have bikes. Well be here working through the holiday weekend to keep you rolling #enjoythesunandair
Linus bikes are back in stock, but quantities are really limited. If you’re looking for a classic, reliable bike, perfectly suited for summer in Brooklyn, come see us at the shop. @ Sun and Air
We needed some more bikes to sell in this wild uncertain time so @codyandsoul came in for a couple night shifts to tune up our rental fleet for the sales floor. Within 2 hours of opening today they were gone! We have some @linusbike coming in soon so check in for new stock. Of course our mechanics are still here getting your bikes tuned and flats fixed, and we have all the accessories you need or a safe enjoyable ride.... Come by anytime with your bike questions
That #NewBikeDay feeling.
(*´`*) another very happy #NewBikeDay!!! Lots of fun picking out accessories for this new @linusbike purchase. Have fun, be safe!!!
Just wanted to share a little #tbt from 2016 when the shop was young, and social distancing was not a thing.
Cute little new bike day series because we couldn’t pick a favorite photo, soooo much #newbikeday joy! (*´`*)
Wow, these @trekbikes FX bikes have been so popular! Only a couple left on the floor until JUNE! New stock trickling in but it’s a strange time where cycling has become a more important part of many peoples lives who are looking to avoid public transit and/or a healthy safe activity outdoors. We take each day in stride, we appreciate all your patience and understanding while we adapt. #happynewbikeday we hope all these new bike purchases are the start of the freedoms and fitness you were looking for
More eyes smiling over #NEWBIKEDAY! So excited to get your new whips built up and out the door
#FBF to when we still had a bunch of @tokyobike.us’s for sale they are so perfect for city commuting and tiny apartments, most models are now on back order until JUNE! We should be getting a couple new ones in early next week... HAPPY #NEWBIKEDAY
As fast as we can build ‘em the @trekbikes FX3’s are flying out the door. So excited to get you on your perfect bike with the perfect accessories to bring some normalcy and fun into your life! happy #newbikeday
What a great afternoon to ride away on a @trekbikes FX3! Hope this bike brings you so much fun and adventures! Happy #NEWBIKEDAY
It’s a family affair! His and hers new bike day & lots of new adventures for Sunny (the dog) HAPPY #NEWBIKEDAY
@mowenstrumpet test road many bikes but wasn’t really happy about them then @flavortown sent him over from @kingkogbrooklyn to test ride the Crockett and he fell in Ø there is nothing better than getting someone on the absolute perfect bike for them. #HAPPYNEWBIKEDAY
Perfect sunny weekend, perfect day to add a new bike to your life! Thanks for taking some of our favorite bikes for test rides and trusting us to get you set up on YOUR perfect bike @aranjbaran! Enjoy your #NEWBIKEDAY
How about a bike to match your shirt?! This couldn’t have been more perfect HAPPY #NEWBIKEDAY
The @tokyobike.us are so perfect for city commuting and tiny apartments. They have been flying (spinning?) out the doors to a lot of excited people. HAPPY #NEWBIKEDAY
I love when people tell me that they have been thinking about buying a bike all day and they feel like a kid again because of it! I hope this bike brings you joy for years! #NEWBIKEDAY
It really pays off when a customer comes in and test rides some bikes but has to think about it... and a few days later they are excited to come back and make that purchase! Happy #newbikeday
Delivering bikes by bike! Thanks to all the volunteer doctors and nurses who’ve come to NYC in our time of need. We’ve been setting folks up for free on our rental bikes, and we deliver! This bike went to a hotel by Central Park, and will be taking a health care worker up to the Bronx on their commute for the next 10 weeks. #wheelsforheroes #abuscycling @ New York, New York
Not a #newbikeday but we helped Derek secure his basket to his bike and he asked if we wanted a photo... how could we say no?!
When a customer comes to the shop with the exact bike they want in mind but that color is on back order for months ... this was a fun game of what can we do to make the right bike look as as possible. So happy we were able to get all that white on there and it truly became the perfect bike. Happy #newbikeday
He had an idea of what his perfect bike would be like, be but he didn’t know he would find it so quickly. Enjoy your #newbikeday!
The signs and lines of the times. Doing everything to keep customers and staff safe. #enjoythesunandair #safesocialdistancing #essentialworkers

As an essential business we’ve stayed open every day since quarantine began. We’re helping delivery workers, medical professionals, and everyone looking for a safe way to move around the city. We chatted with @bicyclingmag about what it’s been like at the shop during these trying times. It’s been an honor to serve our community with our brave and dedicated crew. Link in bio if you want to check the story out, photos by @bryanbanducci https://www.bicycling.com//a32/nyc-bike-shop-staying-open/
We’re making out rental fleet available for free to medical professionals coming to NYC to help during the COVID pandemic. If you need a reliable bike during your stay here, please send us a message. Thank you for your service!
We’re bringing #newbikeday to customers all over New York - contactless, safe, and socially distant. Stay home and we will deliver your dream bike. #trekbikes #enjoythesunandair
Just wanted to give a giant thank you from the bottom of our hearts to our amazing staff, working hard to keep NYC safe, healthy and rolling. Cat, Jon and Miki, thank you so much. We are so lucky to have you. photo @miki.leaks @ Sun and Air
Neighbors- please check this out!
Amidst the current situation we are moving to a very limited service we will try to finish up the workorders we have on a very basic repair level to get bikes back you ASAP. We will perform basic repairs as walk ins but will not check in bikes for service. We will continue to sell bikes to those who want/ need them for transportation during this time. Please take extra precautions to sanitize and protect yourself and others from spreading the virus we will be open 12-7 and going day to day
NEW BIKE DAY @monmon_llamas has been training for @ironmantri and came by the shop today to pick up the @trekbikes Domane AL2 so she can get serious about training and racing on a bike. Hopefully join us for some rides! - #enjoythesunandair #newbikeday
Yesterday was NEW BIKE DAY for @oliviamjudge who got herself a @tokyobike.us Classic Sport. She came in looking for the perfect bike in the perfect color and this bike was the perfect fit. After a test ride, Olivia came through the door with that huge smile you only get from new bike excitement! After getting set up with @pinheadlocks wheel security and a @ridebontrager lock she was out the door on her maiden voyage. Enjoy the Sun & Air . #enjoythesunandair #tokyobike #pinh...ead #bontrager #newbikeday See more
Today’s staff pick is @codyandsoul with the @knog light cobbler and plus light bright and effective! These magnetic lights are so easy to remove from the mount, you’ll never have a light stolen again. And as a bonus, at $20, they much more affordable than a ticket violation from the NYPD for not utilizing lights after dusk. Be safe. Be legal. // A $20 light is much cheaper than a NYPD ticket infraction for not having lights. Be safe, be seen... // Go forth with Lights-Camera-Action! Be Safe, Be legal. @ Sun and Air See more
