We’re trying to un-learn the “good” and “bad” weather dichotomy. Just because it’s wet out, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t enjoy riding your bike! Embrace any weather with some smart rain gear like Reid’s @cleverhood Rover rain cape in stunning Dazzle Camo.

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, this Sunday is international coffee outside day and we’re going to be hosting one of our chill #coffeeoutside rides to celebrate the holiday! We’re planning to incorporate bit of dirt for all the dirt-church enthusiasts but still keep the ride accessible for folks without dirt-oriented bikes. Meet at the shop at 9 for a 9:15 rollout. Be sure to bring a fun, comfy bike, your mug/drinking vessel, and your beverage of choice (tea is totally a-ok!)! No BS, no drop, etc. Hope to see you this Sunday! Get in touch with any questions.

Here’s a big shout out to our friend Nakia for taking the plunge and custom building this @crustbikes Wombat! After many conversations over the course of a few months, we arrived at this beautiful ripper of a bike. The goal was to create something that would evoke the nostalgia of riding bikes as a kid. For Nakia, that meant envisioning a mountain-ish bike that would be ridden all over Boston - whether it was on or off-road. At the end of the day, it’s safe to say mission accomplished! Aside from capturing that feeling, it also had to come correct in the aesthetics department. In particular, we love the pairing of lots of shiny pieces with the varying hues of red and browns. Perhaps, best of all is that super unobtanium @brooksengland World Traveller we sold to Nakia years ago that was just waiting for the right bike! Thanks again for such a fun and beautiful project @big_keez and see you on the next ride!

Our friend Kaera just picked up her sweet new custom @allcitycycles Space Horse! We cooked up the “ultimate fun bike,” which will see loads of mixed terrain riding like what you’d encounter in New England. This build features lots of our favorite parts that are coincidentally also really nice and durable from some of our favorite companies like @whiteind, @velocityusa, @sramroad, and @panaracer_world to name a few. Thanks for letting us help build up this sweet bike for you, Kaera and #happynewbikeday!

Peep Rani’s new @bassi.bikes Hog’s Back! We’ve been seeing a lot of these Bassi builds come through the shop lately and we were so happy to help out with this one! Like any great all-round touring bike it’s rolling out with big all-terrain tires, a wide gear range and a comfy fit on a sturdy steel frame.
Looking forward to all the adventures coming up! Thanks again Rani!

He spent some time building up this beautiful specimen from the frame up. As you can tell, he has an affinity for shiny silver parts. Feast your eyes on this purty build and let us know yr favorite part in the comments!

What better day to upgrade your rain gear than a ☔️rainy day☔️? Our favorites from @cleverhood are here to help you escape from the soggy commute in style 😉 We have Rover capes and Urbanaut jackets in a wide variety of colors and in most sizes. If you’ve been curious about Cleverhood and are local to Boston, Cambridge, or Somerville, swing by since we’re the only spot that has em in town!

We’re stoked to offer these super duper cute AND functional little bits from @foragercycles! We’ve got their quintessential Cable Cherries and their super handy titanium Link Wrenches! The Cable Cherries are reusable cable ends that add a lil splash of color and a more solid ergonomic touch point for any cable adjustments. We’ve got a fun smattering of colors to match your colorful anodized bits or decals 💅. The Link Wrench on the other hand is a 8, 9, and 10mm open ends with a dyneema cord for use as an emergency master link opener. FYI, these are essential if you’re running cantilever brakes or have a rack/fenders on a touring rig or commuter. Both products are lovingly made in the US to boot! Hard not to love that. Come check em out sometime soon 🙂

Check out this super-hot GT Karakoram resto-mod. It’s been painstakingly detailed and rebuilt into a modern all-terrain head-turner. Maybe the best part? It’s for sale and you could make it yours!

☔️We got in a nice big @cleverhood restock just in time for the rain☔️Classics like the Rover are back in the usual colors, but we also added in some of the Anoraks as well as the new Zipster jackets, which are made from a lighter, more packable fabric that features all over reflective print for that added 🔆
We’ve sung the praises of the Cleverhood gear for a while now - they’re just thoughtfully designed for urban riding/walking/living and they also look great! Come check em out next time you’re in the neighborhood and see for yourself 👋

Big thanks to @bostonbikepolo for inviting us to help out at the Crown Classic polo tournament and for being such great hosts! We had a blast watching the games and meeting players from all-over (and fixing a few bikes too). Go watch the coverage of the games on the @connectbikepolo Youtube page. Can’t wait for the Commonwealth Classic!

🌧Rainy days🌧 mean the fenders come out to play! If you’re tired of getting soaked, prematurely destroying your drivetrain, want to keep your riding buddies happy, or just love the aesthetic, fenders are an amazing tool for your cycling experience. We are big fans ourselves and would love to install some on your bike! We carry lots of options from @velo_orange, @simworksusa, @planet_bike, and more. Drop by sometime if you’re interested and wanna learn which option would fit your bike best ☔️
