The first thing I noticed on entering the store is not only do they sell bikes, but you can hire them too. This is a nice option if you want something a bit better than the CityCycle. The staff were friendly and not pushy, and it didn't take long for me to walk out with a swish new light, on sale too.

Well, if you're not run of the mill and you're looking for beautiful road bikes with alluring designs you must go and inspect the range at Velo Bicycles. Coming down Kedron Brook Road, the store is located on the cusp, a virtual roll, from the heart of Wilson Village. It's clear that ethos of this independent bike store is something the staff believes in. Inside the experience is testament to standing out and above the competition. Everything, from the service centre to the luster of the floorboards demonstrates that the products sold here are of the highest quality and craftsmanship. With individual frames and wheels handcrafted from places like Germany and Italy its safe to assume that Velo Bicycles sell high end products. One bike I found retailed for almost $9000 dollars. Upon this discovery, the very helpful manager, Warren, led me to some cheaper rides valued at $899. As Warren informed me (and I may be paraphrasing him a little), the stock in store may be a bit on the excusive side, but the quality, longevity and riding experience of a bike bought from Velo is second to none. In addition to Velo's love for quality road bikes, the store is into cultivating the local riding population by encouraging group rids on weekends where fellow enthusiasts can muse and cruise together. You can join up inside or go to their website for more information. Velo Bicycles isn't just a bike store, it's a centre for biking fanatics. I mean what other store has a Cadel Evans bike on display?

Nice guys but abusive prices! (hmm maybe not so nice guys after all!)…read more Their asking price for a set of 105 brake levers was over $500, That is double (or even more) the price elsewhere. Besides that the labor cost was just ridiculous. I don't know if they are just plain expensive or if they took advantage since I wouldn't buy the parts from them (bought them for $195) brought the parts willing to pay a fair price for their labor and then maybe buying other things that I needed and even a new tri bike for the wife... But after being charged over $220 for the installation of a pair of brake levers I don't think I'll be going back or recommending the place... Too bad since they are just round the corner! ** ended up buying the new bike at 99bikes which is only minutes away from Fusion...

Gear has some of the most badass two-wheelers I've seen, and from seriously cool designers like Corratec, Cinneli and leader (to name a few.) They also stock a highly covetable range of clothing, head ware, shoes, books, sunglasses, watches, bags and bike parts. The staff are pretty helpful but prepare to part with some greens as frames alone can go for up to $1000. For seriously good Gear, I highly recommend checking this place out.

My boyfriend is into cycling, although doesn't ride a fixed gear, and loves Gear for its cycling accessories. Whilst the trend amongst hard-core regular cyclists is lycra all the way, "fixies" as they call them, have a trend of their own, much more street cool. With their swirly bicycle logo, Gear does a great t-shirt for $29.95. My boyfriend has a black one with white logo and it's lasted him ages. I recently bought him some socks from there, which cost a whopping $20 (apparently there's something special about cycling socks) and he loves them. Made from a slightly lycra-ish fabric that's supposed breath well, they're also supposed to be ultra-durable. The ones from Gear also come with their little logo on it. This tiny little store is packed with things--clothing, helmets, frames, pedals, seats--literally, the walls are covered with stuff. So if you're a bike enthusiast of any kind, you're bound to find something of interest in there.
