Bicycle Shop

BMX Bikes • Mountain Bikes • Road Bikes

A quality bicycle shop should stock a full range of bicycles, including road bikes, mountain bikes, and BMX bikes as well as a selection of recumbent bikes and children's bicycles.  The shop should also carry cycling apparel and accessories plus appropriate bicycle parts and tools.  Additionally, a reputable bicycle shop will offer repair and customization services for professional and amateur cyclists alike.  A good local bicycle shop should also provide you with ongoing maintenance and may be able to direct you to local trails, group rides, and bicycle racing organizations.  Furthermore, the store, including the service department, should be open at convenient hours and should carry popular bicycle brands such as Trek, Cannondale, Specialized, Lemond, Mongoose, and Schwinn.

A bicycle shop with these features and excellent customer service is imperative to finding the right bike for your needs and budget.  It is important that the staff is knowledgeable and can direct you to the appropriate size frame, as well as provide you with a good fit.  This is crucial in preventing injury to muscles and joints as well as providing years of riding enjoyment.  Developing a relationship with a bicycle shop you can trust will go a long way toward your enjoyment of cycling.
