Singlespeed!

We love single speed here! We’ve been riding it for years, be it around town or on the trails. It’s a great way to get a quality budget bike for cruising the streets, or a fresh way to ride the local trails. Not only do we have an assortment of single speed and fixed gear bikes in stock, but we’re the place to go to get your bike converted to single. We’ve got tons of parts, new and used, from stealth to show. A few of the brands we carry for the fixie rider are: Soma, Pake, Velocity, Vuelta, NRG, Shimano, Oury, VSixty, DiaTech and many more. Come check out the largest selection in town!

Pedro’s for 2010

For 2010 we’re selling Pedro’s chain oils, degreasers and cleaners. Most of their products are biodegradable and environmentally friendly, so it’s a natural move for a shop selling used, recycled parts and bikes. We’ve been using their chain oil all winter, and just got the full line of product in this week. Time to clean off that rust and grime!
