05.12.13Now Carrying Parlee
We are now carrying bikes from Parlee. They produce an amazing frame built either in house or overseas for a more affordable option. This is a carbon company like no other, they offer full custom fit, feel, and color options. Parlee was founded a decade ago with a simple but lofty goal: To build the world’s best performing race bikes. At the time, carbon fiber was overlooked in the road bike market. But based on what Bob Parlee had learned during 20 years in the boat building business, it was obvious that composites could redefine the cycling world.

Norco Sight
It’s not very often that you see a magazine reward a bike with a perfect review. Mountain Bike Rider magazine gives the Norco Sight a 10 out of 10!
The Norco Sight is designed to excel in all aspects of trail riding. This is a bike that you can take out and hit the dirt jumps at Duffield or ride somewhere steep and rocky like Pisgah. Thanks to the FSR suspension the Sight climbs with the competence of a short travel race bike and descends with the confidence of a long travel gravity rig!

Ellsworth Evolve custom MTB
Here’s another custom Ellsworth that is out on the trail now. Over the last four years we have built up several Evolves that have really been put to the test. It’s really hard to beat an reliable American made frame with such a good feel to it.

SALE Scott CR1 Team
I want a deal! Well my friend, here is a deal and half. We have one 2012 Scott CR1 from last year,This bike originally retailed for $2199, on sales for $1799. Big savings on a great bike.
Take a look at this great review!
Soma Rush custom build
Here’s a look at another custom bike we built recently. The Soma Rush you see below is quick and stiff while still being a smooth ride thanks to the steel tubing.
Scott Cr1 Team
We love the Scott CR1 here at the shop, Derek owned one a year before we were even a Scott dealer! We feel it’s a great option for riders who enjoy long rides yet still want to rip down some descents in the knobs or JMF. Go ahead and ride that century with no worries of being beat up by a full on race bike.
The CR1 Team offers the perfect balance of performance and comfort. Designed to save the rider from shock and vibration created by rough roads, the CR1 is the ideal choice for the enthusiast or racer who wants to enjoy long rides but doesn’t want a sore back at the end of the day. The shock damping is so effective that it has even helped racers in the pro peloton tame the dreaded cobbles of Paris-Roubaix.
BTW, This bike is available for demo.
Bell Trigger youth helmets
On of our goals this year was to have a helmet in stock for every rider. The Bell Trigger will grow with your kid as they gets older thanks to the ErgoDial fit system. A simple press of the button and slide of the dial brings firm, snug and comfy stability.
Chris King purple rain
The purple color option from Chris King had been on hiatus for around 10 years. Request after request and it is once again available for a short time. Ask and you shall receive!

Devinci Atlas Carbon
Devinci’s Atlas combines patented Split Pivot suspension with the ultra-smooth ride of a 29-inch wheel platform for a ride that’s made for the trail. For 2013, Devinci sent the Atlas back to the lab and returned with a new breed of lighter, faster, and stronger. Built on Devinci’s tested-to-perfection carbon frame tech, the Atlas Carbon is stiffness tuned for state-of-the-art power and finesse and features an ultra-short chain stay for lightning fast acceleration and superior handling at low speeds. The 29-inch wheel platform on both Aluminum and Carbon models is a tire-to-ground formula that holds momentum longer, while delivering a sasquatch-sized footprint for improved stability and grip across mud, root, and rock ravaged environments. All this and did we mention it comes with a lifetime warranty? Don’t just take our word for it, ask some of our customers how they like theirs or take a look at the following reviews.
