Rows of used road bikes, kids' bikes, wheels, racks and bins of replacement parts fill the 4th Street plaza next to the Old Stone House, a rebuilt 1699 Dutch farmhouse. The Bike Jumble is where Brooklyn cyclists go to find a cheap commuter, a part their shop can't source or a first bike for a kid, and where haggling is half the fun. If you've been meaning to get back on two wheels before fall, show up early for the best pickings.
What to expect
Sellers set up across the plaza between Fifth and Fourth Avenues, with bikes lined up to inspect and test-ride and tables of gear and parts. The crowd is a mix of serious riders, parents and bargain hunters, and the Old Stone House's playground and park are right alongside.
