Platy, does the bath room also serve as the changing/fitting room? Sprocket is a nice, original name for a bike shop cat.

The shop was a suntan studio at one point. There are 6 rooms plus the bathroom down the hall, so no... there's a changing/fitting room, a used bike room, a storeroom, a bedroom (for me if I work late or bicycle tourists who stop here), the cat room (litter boxes, etc), another storeroom, and the bathroom.

But you do allow customers to try on things like bike jersey's in one of the rooms with a door correct?
Also are you set up for online ordering directly from your shop?

It would be silly to have a fitting room yet not allow people to try on clothes....
No, I don't sell online (for the most part). Many of my seller agreements forbid it. I guess it's only okay for certain companies to do so.

I love Velo Orange stuff. There are a few things that aren't quite as well-made as I'd like, but those things are usually priced accordingly. The majority of the items they have are excellent. Rims, for instance. I love their rims. Their cranks are very nice too, as are their racks, fenders, and bags.

My crank is about worn out and I was looking at their triple cranks. Nice!

I have a 3 legged cat you can have. You could call him Tricycle.
Love the pictures of the shop.

I like this post. Thanks for sharing. I especially like the pics of the happy customers standing with their new bikes. I think that is something we can all relate with.
