The victim was exiting the building on East 33rd Street between Second and Third avenues at around 7 p.m. Saturday with his Focus Arriba hybrid bike.

That’s when the two thieves spotted the ­high-performance set of wheels, cops said.

The suspects demanded the cyclist turn over his fancy German-engineered sport bike, which sells for more than $1,000.

The thieves also snatched cash and an iPhone from the victim, cops said.

One suspect was described as being around 30 years old, standing about 5-foot-11 and weighing 220 pounds.
