New Bike Day Post! Robert Joseph Rouse Sr. came all the way over from Bellevue, Ohio to pick up a new gravel bike. The SCOTT Sports Speedster Gravel ticked all the boxes for him, so now he's ready to rip all over Erie, Seneca, and Huron Counties (all intersect in Bellevue, weirdly enough haha), and tear up the North Coast Inland Trail. Thanks for making the trip over, Rob! We look forward to being a part of your fitness journey :)

Interesting Fact: Our fitter, Matthew Schieferstein, lived in Bellevue for many years, and learned how to ride a bike in the Bellevue High School parking lot.

Having a great time hosting tonight’s social. Got to unveil the upstairs to a lot of fellow cyclists!

While winter is winding down and our thoughts turn to spring and long bike rides, come on out of your hibernation and kick it with us Friday night!
Bike Cleveland is co hosting a social at the shop. They would love to share their vision of cycling in C-town with you. Additionally, our friends from Bike Parma have something cookin’ and it’s not peirogies. Want to chat about the upcoming Spring classic road races I’m sure our teammates from Summit Freewheelers would be happy to oblige. Mountain biking and adventure rides more your thing? The Outsiders Cycling Club will stoke that 🔥. So come on out and hang with some riding friends old and new. Snacks and beverages will be provided. All are welcome, but our parking lot is a little tight. There’s a huge lot just a block north of us across the street in front of the Independence water tower. See you Friday!

Now is the time to get that dream build done, give your current ride a nice upgrade or simply an annual tune up. Or get more in tune with your machine by booking a bike fitting appointment. Be ready when Spring gets here! Here’s a fun dream build video of an Sworks Tarnac from 3 years ago.

Gearing up for Matt’s fitting clinic at Cabda! It’s a packed room full of fitters eager to hear Matt’s techniques and recommendations.
The off season is the BEST time to get your bike fitting and adjustments. Call the shop to schedule your appointment asap. Matt will get you set up!

The team is headed to the mid-west expo! We're going to check out all the new gear, see a bunch of familiar faces, and (Matthew) is doing a presentation on bike fitting. We will be closing today at 2pm and reopen Friday, Feb 6th at noon.
