  • Mess Kollective is a Bike Messenger Company in New York City. They operate different than most companies in the way that there is no dispatch!
    All Mess Kollective messengers receive a notification when a delivery is placed, then they can check to see if the job has been claimed.
    They offer a few different services with their fastest delivery being 30 minutes or less, This is called the Scary!
    I was Able to Work with Victor a Messenger with the company for a year and a half! He was riding a Volume Fixed Gear.

    I hardly ever saw one use a smaller width on the bar, fut the logics in traffic suits it for sure. I think I saw such widths on foldable bikes, but wow. My compliments on the riding done here. I loved watching this. Just the red light runs are a bit...well... Still amazing to watch though!

      @@801oap I believe how cool it is to have good reflexes, but pedestrians don't always have them, and if you bump into one, they could hit their head and remain permanently disabled or die, then that's not cool in my opinion. Seeing so many instances of this really depends on luck most of the time. I guess instead of coffee, the cyclist stimulates themselves with something else, that's why they're so daring.
