We understand that a bicycle is an investment, so we carry good lines and offer good service. Whatever your riding style may be, we help you find the bike that best suits your purposes and your budget:

What's In Stock?

If The Bike Center carried just one of each size of every model in each of our lines, our stock would be over 700 bikes.  We hope this tidbit of information helps you understand why we're selective for models and sizes we stock on a regular basis.  Here's how we choose what we carry:

Value -- this is our number one priority.  We want you to get the best value for your investment, which means quality and service.  Regardless if the price level, your bike should work well, be easy to service, and be a pleasure to ride.

Terrain -- It sometimes doesn't make sense for us to carry a type of bike that's popular in other parts of the country.  Beach cruisers may look cool, but they're for the Jersey Shore, not Vermont.  We sell bikes that do make sense for the local terrain.

Under $300 -- People who visit our website often believe we are only a high-end shop.  Not so.  We want everyone riding bikes, not just the folks who can fork over $3,000 or more.  We work diligently each year to ensure that we have a good selection of brand-name quality bicycles that cost under $300, so anyone who wants a bike can afford one.

Bike Specials

Diamondback Wildwood City -- mostly 15", just a few larger.  Basic 21spd with cruiser handlebars.  Original retail, $240, on sale for $199.

Raleigh Route 3.0 Hybrid -- variety of sizes, men's and women's.  We are always on the watch for closeouts that offer quality bicycles for under $300.  This is one of our best catches.  If you're looking for a quality aluminum frame that is comfortable, efficient, and fun, this is it.  Original price, $395, on sale for $295.

Cannondale F7 Feminine -- petite and small sizes only.  This is a great bike for your growing child, girl or boy.  The silver frame color we purchased on closeout is very gender-neutral -- it is not marked as a woman's frame.  It is built up with a very nice 8spd (not 7) component group.  Original retail $395, on sale for $270.
