For the price I thought it might not look so cheap but it does. It’s also not purpley pink like it looks on the picture it’s gray. Seat isn’t comfortable will need padding. It’s light though and a nice ride. But not worth it for the price

great simple commute bike

love this bike. Simple, works well, comfortable geometry, good gearing for city hills and light gravel. Really great value bike for the price.

Thank you so much for your glowing review of the Roebling Aaron. We're thrilled to hear that it has been a great companion for your commute. Simple yet effective, just like our customer service team (wink). We're glad that the bike's comfortable geometry and gearing have made your city hills and light gravel rides a breeze. And we couldn't agree more, it's definitely a steal for the price. Keep on riding and welcome to the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

great simple bike for my teen

Got this for my 13yo daughter for mostly city street/path riding. Not much to say other than it’s just perfect for this use case and she loves the bike. It’s simple, rides smoothly, gearing ratios are great, and it fits her well. Lovely bike.

Thanks so much Aaron. We're so happy to hear that it's been a great fit for your daughter's city riding adventures. We agree, it's a lovely bike with smooth riding and perfect gearing ratios. Keep having fun out there and welcome to the Brooklyn Bicycle Co. family. -Ryan Zagata

Love my new bike!

I’m thrilled with my new bike - highly recommend! Thanks to the Brooklyn Bike team and my local bike shop for making me feel so cared for during the purchase process.

Thanks for the shoutout to our team and your local bike shop - we're always here to make sure our customers feel taken care of. Keep on pedaling and enjoying the ride! ‍♀️‍♂️ -Ryan Zagata

Nice carrier!

Well built carrier; I expect it will last for many years. My only quibble is the cheap-looking branded sticker stuck to the top, which is easy enough to pull off but required some elbow grease to remove the residue.

Thanks so much for sharing. As you might imagine, many of the suppliers we work with include removable branding on their products. We apologize if they were a bit aggressive with their use of glue to attach their packaging. -Ryan Zagata

I like the city bike…I like sitting upright and after many yrs out of the saddle this is working great for me. 😊

At 5'2", it's really great to find a bike that fits.
The shop that was picked to assemble the bike was really friendly and professional.
It's a fabulous bike.

Great purchase

I was a bit hesitant on purchasing a bike online but wow… so happy with this purchase. The bike I ordered was better than expected!

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback Shirlene. We are thrilled you are enjoying your Franklin. -Ryan Zagata

Perfect. Bicycle and Customer Service

I meant to write this a lot sooner. The bicycle is great. I am enjoying riding her around Baton Rouge, though it sometimes feels like an extreme sport. A cyclist, I have come to realise, is somewhat rare in these parts (and more than a little unwanted). Regardless, I persevere because I love cycling and hate cars and I am used to cycling. It was a fair bit safer in Europe, I got knocked off twice here already and this never happened to me before, but I am hoping that more people will take to cycling and then things will get better. Anyway I am not planning on stopping.
The bicycle is very trusty and beautifully designed. She withstood two pickup trucks so far (hopefully there won’t be more, but they have drive through Daiquiris here).
Excellent customer service throughout. Hassle free. Friendly.
Would have wrote this much sooner (got bicycle last June) but my mother died unexpectedly and so I went home to the UK for a while.

Thank you for sharing such a thorough review Violet. We are glad you've emerged unscathed from the daquiri drinking drivers. Thanks also for sharing such a fun photo. -Ryan Zagata

Super good end to end experience

Super informative website, easy online ordering and the delivery to a local bike shop for assembly and pickup made the whole exercise a positive experience. As I live interstate it made a big difference. Thank you

The bike is beautiful and given as a Christmas Gift to my nephew, he LOVES IT!
It is well made, not too heavy, streamline, fits the parameters for metro travel, easy to ride and all around a beautiful bike we are expecting to ride a long time!

Thank you so much for sharing and for the specific points highlighted why your nephew emphatically LOVED IT. -Ryan Zagata

Upgraded Center Mount Kickstand

We have an older model bicycle from around 2015. Old Kickstand kept bike with more on a lean, like a chance it would fall over. New kickstand seams to keep bike standing straight up. It's very sturdy and better made than the last one. So far it's been great.

Thank you for sharing Carl. We're glad the kickstand did the job for you. - Ryan Zagata

Great bike accessories

Strong lock. Rechargeable front and back lights with multiple settings (I use slow blinking one.)
And an easy to reach bell that does not startle people too much.

Thanks for sharing Linda. Love that you added on the commuter bundle to get yourself going quickly. We appreciate the feedback. -Ryan Zagata

Having fun on my Willow.

Great to learn you're putting your Willow through the paces and she's responding as expected. -Ryan Zagata

I ordered a bicycle as a Christmas gift for my grandson. I definitely ordered it later than I should have for delivery and assembly by Christmas. Nevertheless, it arrived on time, assembly was seamless, and the bicycle is beautiful. Kudos to Brooklyn Bicycles.

Thanks for sharing Jim. We are glad the timeline worked out in your favor. We appreciate your business. -Ryan Zagata

Commuter Bundle Plus

I received the Commuter Bundle as part of a promotion when I purchased my bicycle.
The frint and rear have a nice flash position to help visibility.
The lock and cable look like a quality product as well.
I don't know if I need the bell but the canvas bag is another nice addition.

Thanks for sharing PK. Glad the lights, lock and tote are delivering as promised. - Ryan Zagata

Freebies

The lights and bag were provided as an enticement to buy the bike. The lights are great. Four settings and they show up very well. The bag is quality. I use it as a grocery bag.

Thanks for the review! We're happy to hear that the lights and tote were well received and serving you well. -Ryan Zagata
