[Cycling Street Snap] What’s Cyclists’ Style Like in New York? - Winter 2025 | Ep.17

In this episode of Sovev Media, we meet two NYC riders with completely different setups, personal styles, and approaches to city cycling. First, Kenny walks us through his beautifully restored 1993 GT Timberline build — a vintage MTB brought back to life with a thoughtful mix of old-school character and modern upgrades. From the STRIDSLAND cockpit and gold-accented drivetrain to the rare Chris King threaded headset and classic triple triangle frame design, his bike reflects a deep appreciation for both function and vintage mountain bike culture. Then we talk with Ramiro Cortez, who shares his long-ridden Aventon track bike setup and the personal story behind it. Originally passed down from his brother, the bike has become his own through small but meaningful changes, from the cockpit and saddle position to details like stickers, a pink front wheel, and a top cap gifted by a special friend. He also talks about why he prefers straps over clipless pedals and how comfort shapes the way he rides through the city. ---------------- [Featured Cyclists] Kenny:   / coldbloodedonly   Ramiro:   / romero_kurtes   ---------------- For sponsorship and collaboration inquiries, please feel free to reach out via the form below. https://forms.gle/B2eYsgW5F9GJrx6fA スポンサー・コラボレーションを募集しています。 ご興味のある方は、以下のフォームよりお打ち合わせをお申し込みください。 https://forms.gle/h1dd91caTyXMBjx3A ---------------- #sovev #fixie #mtb #nycbikelife #streetsnap #bikecheck #自転車 #サイクリング #ロードバイク #ピストバイク Subscribe us↓    / @sovevmedia   Instagram ｜   / sovev.nyc   Contact｜sovev.nyc@gmailcom ---------------- About Sovev: Sovev is a New York-based cycling media platform and community dedicated to sharing a sustainable and enriching cycling lifestyle.
