Updated August 7

We stock road, mountain, hybrid, and children's bicycles by Trek, Cannondale, Raleigh,  and Diamondback.  We are also one of the original dealers for high performance titanium frames by Lynskey Performance Designs, owned and run by the family who started Litespeed™ in 1986.  

We can put you on a bike that fits your lifestyle, whatever it may be.  Our sales entrance (pictured above) is set back from Main Street, just west of Otter Creek and a short walk from Middlebury College.  For more detailed directions and suggested parking, see location and hours.

A Word about Prices for Fiscal '09

Over the next fiscal year (beginning July 1, 2008), you can expect to see prices for bikes, components, and accessories to increase by roughly 10 to 20 percent, across the board, due to the following:

bulletDeclining dollar
bulletIncreases in production costs (mainly materials)
bulletIncreases in shipping costs, due to the skyrocketing cost of diesel fuel 

Two examples, where we have already had to restock some sizes at '09 prices:  

bullet Trek 7.2 FX, $440, up to $495
bullet Trek 7000, $295, up to $345

We do not intend to use this as an opportunity to generate "windfall profits" by raising prices on our 2008 inventory.  Inventory we purchased at '08 wholesale will continue to sell for '08 retail prices, for as long as this inventory lasts.  Our '08 stock is limited, however, so if you've been thinking about a bike, now is the time to check us out.
