Now’s a great time for you, and for us, to spiff up your bike if it needs repairs. We can sell parts or do the repairs for you.
Please send your bike to the shop with someone healthy. If you have symptoms (coughing, sore throat, fever), please move it around with freshly washed hands or clean gloves to prevent spreading anything to our essential bike mechanics.
Or, if you’re in the market, you can purchase an affordable up-cycled bike for recreational rides, commuting, and running errands.
