By the time I made over to Affinity Cycles over in Brooklyn to buy my much anticipated Lo Pro frame, I had built it up in my head so much I was convinced I was going to be disappointed. I thought for sure, I would walk in to the store to be confronted by a group of unapproachable fixie/cycling hipsters but my prefabricated opinions couldn’t have been farther from the truth. I strolled in about 10 minutes after opening, my Gimme Coffee mocha keeping my hands warmed on the drizzling New York winter morning. The store was pristine and unpretentious, at the counter I was greeted by Jason while directly behind him Miguel Fernandez worked methodically on that mornings project. I could tell immediately by his work ethic and focus, that once he serviced your bike, you could rest assured in the mechanical sanctity of your ride. He didn’t say much preferring to nod occasionally when he agreed with Jason or chime in to explain the convoluted technicalities of NYC bike laws.]]> http://www.kevincolombu.com/blog/?p=773 http://www.kevincolombu.com/blog/?p=751 http://www.kevincolombu.com/blog/?p=742 http://www.kevincolombu.com/blog/?p=702
