The shop will be closed Sundays while I catch up on some much needed family time and some sleep! It's been a busy season with lots of support from the community. We are supremely grateful! We look forward to ramping up our little operation in the coming months and provide more in the way of used parts, accessories and even apparel. We'll be making use of our extra day off to remodel our space to make room for all this new stuff. Feel free to pop in from time to time and check out our progress!Backpedalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01311510237840847326noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331151537496459241.post-18837351456931901172011-11-10T16:17:00.000-08:002011-11-11T08:50:38.435-08:00Backpedal Adds New ServiceNormally our tune and overhaul comes with a bike wash included. That's great if you need your wheels trued, bearings adjusted, brakes and derailleurs adjusted, etc. A lot of bikes just need a good scrub and a once over to make sure everthing's as it should be though. If that's the case with your bike, we have no problem dishing up some bike service ala carte. Just ask for the pit stop and for $25 we'll wash your bike, give it a diagnostic, lube your chain and fill your tires. We call it the pit stop because, especially during this time of year, you'll get your bike taken care while you wait. Of course, if you need extras like, tires, brake pads, etc. we'll gladly do it on the spot too. For a complete list of our services and fees check out the <a href="http://backpedalcycleworks.blogspot.com/p/services.html">services page</a>.Backpedalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01311510237840847326noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331151537496459241.post-13336442503815111582011-10-23T23:09:00.000-07:002011-10-24T09:10:12.395-07:00Pardon Our Dust!Over the next few months, we'll be remodeling the space. We don't want to close the shop while attempting this so things may appear in disarray but we won't let this interrupt our service in any way. Watch for some groovy upgrades soon and please be careful not to touch anything that appears to have a fresh coat of paint.Backpedalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01311510237840847326noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331151537496459241.post-41763028649276062992011-10-20T11:43:00.000-07:002011-10-20T18:08:33.751-07:00Backpedal Adds Used Bikes To Its LineupAs promised we've finally begun adding to our used bike inventory.
