Bicycle Habitat was founded in New York City in 1978. We have expanded into several storefronts in Soho, Chelsea, and Brooklyn. Through all these years, our mission stays the same: more people on bikes, more often. We believe more of us on bikes is better for health, for the city, for the environment - and for quality of life.
