Steel is REAL


Come check out the wicked cool new steel bikes we have at the shop.
Truth be told, steel is still the best material for most of us non racing types to be riding. contrary to popular belief, it is quite light (it will rival the weight of most carbon bikes in the $1500 to 2500 price point in weight) resilient, COMFORTABLE and you won't crush it when you mount it on a repair stand or a car rack.
It is sustainable and recyclable -- unlike carbon fiber. Torelli and Mondonico are hand made in Italy and you get to choose any color you want for the paint! Pick the color, the decal placement and in about one week you have your very own beautiful Italian Job!




Saturday Ride

Starting Saturday May 2 2009 there will be a ride leaving from the front of the shop at 8:15 sharp.
