The Lorimer is Brooklyn Bicycle Co.'s sport-forward city bike for riders who want speed without sacrificing comfort. A 9-speed Shimano Altus drivetrain delivers the same wide gear range as the Roebling, paired with upright, relaxed handlebars that keep you comfortable on every ride. The lightweight steel frame is designed for responsive handling through tight city blocks and smooth cruising on open bike paths. Alloy linear-pull brakes give you confident control at higher speeds. Fender and rack mounts are included so you can set it up for daily commuting or strip it down for fast weekend rides. Puncture-resistant tires handle city debris without worry. The Lorimer is the right choice for riders who enjoy the feel of a road bike but need something practical enough to lock up outside the office every day.
