I have a short commute and always feel guilty driving. I had an ebike but it got stolen, so I used the insurance money to buy one of these Driggs. Let me tell you, that was a good choice! It's easy to pedal and looks super suave. I love it! It's got that ineffable "cool" factor of the Dutch bikes, and I can carry everything I need. I'm adding a front rack in the near future but otherwise this has been everything I wanted.
Thanks for sharing Andy. The Driggs is our much beloved flagship model and we're glad it's proving a suitable replacement for your e-bike. We're thrilled to have you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

Thank you for sharing Daniel. We are glad the lights are helping you be more visible after dark. -Ryan Zagata
I accidentally rated Brooklyn Bikes 1 star I am very pleased that I have not ridden my e bike since I got this bike three weeks ago..it's very sharp looking and it's helping me get the much needed excersise..it's light weight I had ordered the lights with it and all is so good . I feel like a kid again been riding to the office regularly..honestly have to say looks good with my leather jacket I wear to work...5 stars for sure!
Thanks for sharing Daniel. From your review we had assumed you meant 5-stars so we appreciate you correcting that. We are delighted to have in you in the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata
They are a game changer! Their shape creates a very pleasant riding position that works especially well for young and old. While you can still "rock and roll" with the faster crowd...these bars invite side by side chatting and deliver a more leisurely experience...unusual in our modern culture of "racing" where someone wins and others lose... some taking nasty spills.
Biking, in the beginning, opened the door for young men and young women to leave their parent's sides and ride together in their neighborhoods. The seeds of privacy during courtship were planted!
I'm certain the swept back handlebars were part of a "romance" explosion...the world needs more of that today!
The addition of a Nantucket Basket filled with flowers or picnic "fixins" completes the experience!
Enjoy the ride,
Dale Harrison
Thank you Dale. These swept back handlebars have been a huge hit with our customers and you've perfectly captured the exact reason why. We're thrilled you're enjoying your bike and basket. -Ryan Zagata
The addition of the extremely well built and attractive Nantucket basket...an accessory to a Brooklyn Bicycle...causes one to experience...dream if you will... of riding on the the on the island's historic bicycle paths... alongside spectacular beaches...picnic essentials within the basket. What a wonderful, peaceful, interlude among the hustle and bustle that surrounds us.
It' a gem!
