Brooklyn wes an Italian that existed from 1970 to 1977. It was a mainly a one-day classics team and featured riders such as Roger De Vlaeminck, who won four Paris–Roubaix. For the first three seasons it was sponsored by the Italian beer Dreher, and then for the following seasons by Italy's Brooklyn Chewing Gum.

The documentary film A Sunday in Hell features the team during the 1976 Paris–Roubaix. Spike Lee as Mars Blackmon in She's Gotta Have It and early Nike Air Jordan commercials wore the team's now-iconic casquette (English: cap).
