What You Really Need
You don't need to spend a fortune to cycle in Brooklyn, but a few essential pieces of gear will make your rides safer, more comfortable, and more enjoyable.
The Essentials
- Helmet: A properly fitted helmet is the most important piece of gear you'll own
- Lights: Front and rear lights are required by law for night riding
- Lock: A quality U-lock is essential — cable locks can be cut in seconds
- Bell: Required by NYC law and essential for alerting pedestrians
Nice-to-Haves
Fenders for wet weather, a rack or basket for carrying items, padded shorts for longer rides, and a good multi-tool for roadside repairs.
