WheelHouse is now fully stocked with some of the most durable, stylish, and practical (on the bike and off) shoes on the market. The shoes are made by Chrome, the folks who gave you the iconic seatbelt messenger bag, so you know they are built tough. We have two different models in stock, the Midway and Arnhem. The Midway comes with a cordura upper in Brown and Black and the Arnhem is more “chukka” style with a black suede upper. Both boast a re-inforced fiber glass shank midsole, a low-profile design so they can fit in your toe straps, and metal lace ends so you don’t fray your shoelaces. Come down and grab a pair, they all go for $90…. might be the best $90 shoe you ever buy.

Posted February 17, 2010 by adminBox Bike Smiles
Most of the folks that roll through the shop have never seen a box bike before. This is why we encourage people who are curious to take one for a spin around our parking lot. There is definitely a learning curve for most folks when they start charging forward, but once people get the hang of it, it’s all smiles. So next time you are in the shop, give in to that curiosity and take a Bakfiets for a spin.

Posted February 17, 2010 by adminBike Valet
“Keep ‘er upfront, I’ll only be a minute”….. Ever since we opened in May 2009 we’ve been offering free bike valet for Saturday morning farmer’s market patrons. We’ve parked as many as 50 bikes in a day and have come across some beauties. Below is a gallery of some of the coolest, jaw-dropping, silly, and inspiring bikes. As always, we start valeting bikes for the Saturday morning farmer’s markets at 8:30 am. If you ride a bike to the market, come say hi!

Calfee Bamboo Bike
The pictures with the cool looking trailer labeled “we share the same stomach” was done by a young artist touring the west coast named Maria Michealson. Her concept is awesome so please check it out here.

Broncks
As we starting gearing up for Spring, we decided to do some early cleaning. So, our entire Bowery Lane city bike rental fleet will be on sale until they are gone! Normally we sell the Brueklen and Broncks at a retail price of $650 (they go for $695 online), but our lightly used fleet will be going for $450! Thats over 30% off our list price! These are American made street machines with classic Euro styling, both the rear wooden boxes, Lepper sprung leather saddle, and cork grips are stained for a vintage look and to increase longevity. The single-speed drive train and upright riding style are great for city cycling, beach cruising, and campus jaunts. The frames are built in Brooklyn, NY and all the trim and accessory pieces are manufactured by Wald, meaning this bike was fully built in the USA. We have 3 Brueklens (step-through) and 3 Broncks (diamond-style) left. They are one size fits most. To peep out the specs, check out Bowery Lane Bicycles. Enjoy your ride.

The Dutchi is one of three city bike designs by Linus, easy to ride bikes that are easy on the eyes. Linus Dutchi 3 spd $550 @ WheelHouse
What makes a fully equipped bike? Fenders, rack, lights, and a chainguard. The 2010 Jamis Commuter 3 has all this and an internal 8 spd hub to boot. Brilliant. 2010 Jamis Commuter 3 $750 @ WheelHouse

Come one, come all, the Skuuts are here! The skuut is a great bike/tool used in the development of a childs riding skills. Instead of using training wheels in which the child is relying on side to side support from the wheels the skuut teaches the child to rely on his or her own balance.
