A bike is nostalgic of our child hood, but if you live in New York City, it can also be a means of getting around. For me i’ve been on the hunt for a nice bike for quite sometime, but i never actually took the intiative to doing my research and actually purchasing one. Back in June i told myself i was going to finally invest in a bike. My boy Ralphy who rides professionally put me on to where i could get a nice bang for my buck with a discount, and then my other homie Pierre showed me his bike and put in touch with the people who built it for him. I was in limbo over who i wanted to purchase the bike from, but i had really loved the build of Pierre’s bike. While deciding who i was going to buy the bike from i had a little bit of a slight financial set back. After that set back i kind of erased the idea of the bike out of my mind.

Back in August i received an email from the guy i had been in correspondence with from MSC. His name is Cory, and he ended up being the guy that owned the store. He told me he loved what i was doing and wanted to give me a bike! This offer made my whole week. I was able to go on _________ and customize the bike i wanted. As you can see the frame i ended up picking is representation of my logo and my alter ego ‘Littany Sky’. After sending Cory i diagram of what i wanted he had the bike built in 24 hours and told me i could pick it up right away. I’m going to be completely honest, when i think of bike shop, i think the opposite of newly renovated. I think worn down, and old sales people;forgive me. However, when i walked into MSC it was so nice! It seemed like they put a lot of effort into the overall design of their shop. I also was very fond of their clothing. They had a couple 3m pieces that Pierre ended up getting when he came to get the bike with me. After looking around the shop, Cory walked out with new ride and instantly became that emoji with the heart eyes. The bike was perfect and just my size! Talk about a match made in heaven, the bike even has my logo on it.

Can you guys help me name her?

If you guys are looking for a nice bike, looking to upgrade your current bike, or you just want some nice clothes stop by MSC Customs in Noho.
Special thanks to Cory of MSC Customs, and Pierre for putting in the word and connecting me to Cory!
