Sales
We are a long way away, so why should you come here to buy your bike?
We have sold bikes to people from Ohio, Illinois, Virginia, DC, Maryland, Indiana, New Jersey, and New York.
This is why they traveled hundreds of miles to buy their bike here!
Knowledge
When you buy a bike from us you don't talk to a high school kid, or some one from hardware. You are not talking to some sales person.
You talk to me. I have more than 20 years of serious road experience, 8 years on the mountain bike, 12 years of tandem riding, and 5 years as a cycling coach. I've taught several hundred beginners to mountain bike and manage to average 5,0000 miles a year. Biking has been my passion for decades, when you come here you will understand! I ride Cannondale bikes and I know them inside and out.
Service
The only thing that matters to me is that you get the bike that is best for you.
The right size.
The right color.
The right model.
A lot of shops sell you the bike they have. Even if it isn't the model you want, the right color, or the right size.
We listen to you. Together we figure out what bike would be the right one for you, size you and get your color preference. Then we order it. In most cases we have the bike with in 4 days. Straight from the factory, (the Cannondale plant is only 30 miles so I can pick up the bikes myself).
I assemble the bike. Not a college student, or a kid who has been in the shop for a couple of months. I go over everything carefully, and make sure that the adjustments are right on.

I put reflective tape on every bike that I sell. 3 pieces on each rim, and several more on the frame. This insures that you will be seen at night even if the plastic reflectors that come with the bike don't last.
If you want anything installed, water bottle cages, rack, speedometer, etc. I install it for free. All of our accessories are at 20% off and there is no charge for installation!
When you come to pick up the bike we:
Fit it perfectly to you. We set the seat height. Seat front and rear placement. And we switch out the stem to get the reach proper. (very few shops do that!)
Go over adjustment and simple repairs. We show you how to adjust the brakes, derailleurs and how to true the wheels. We will even show you how to fix a flat.
Go for a short ride with you. We want to make sure that you are comfortable with the bike. We can fine tune the fitting, make sure that everything is working properly, including you. If you get a mountain bike we can even give you a mini lessons to make sure that you are familiar with mountain biking!
