i’m soooo looking forward to this documentary on American Urban cycling.

are you looking for an inexpensive stocking stuffer for your fav #BikeNYC’r? well, don’t look to further than michael mandiberg‘s bright bike kit. in a matter of 15 mins, you can light up the night and make everyone’s sprits bright!

i’m no speed demon. the extent of my exuberance extends from the top of the bridge to the bottom. other than that, i’m in the slow lane looking at the city. as an avid supporter of nyc based products, i’m quite excited to see that Hold Fast is a Brooklyn foot strap manufacture. while they cater to “freestyle” cyclist, i’m wondering if these suckers will hold up to my dress shoes and flip flops…

i’ll take all three of these – the pegasus from chari & co nyc. ]]> http://newamsterdamize.com/in-winter-you-can-never-have-too-many-hats/feed/ 0 http://newamsterdamize.com/a-life-saver-for-dunlop-presta-valves/ http://newamsterdamize.com/a-life-saver-for-dunlop-presta-valves/#comments Fri, 16 Oct 2009 21:31:59 +0000 newamsterdamize http://newamsterdamize.com/?p=173 on my batavus, i have a dublop valve and ever so often find myself in need of a schrader valve adapter to pump up my tires… by luck, i have one of these little valve adapters hiding in my change purse. now hipster nascar has found a solution to my woes…

check out “the bullet” from chari & co NYC.

with a new ride in the family, i’m interested in a lock i don’t see too often – the folding lock from OnGuard (top) or Abus (bottom). on the whole, Abus and OnGuard look like spitting images of each other, but i’m really wondering wondering how they stack up against the chain.

according to the british bike site, bikeradar.com, the Abus folding lock has three stars and the OnGuard isn’t rated. so how do these things stack up against the chain gang?
