Always a great team to work with for any cycling needs! They’re willing to take the time to answer questions and get bike fittings just right.

Adam and Tim are great to work with. I heard great things about this place so I bought my first gravel bike there. I live 1-1/2 hours away and have many other options. But I wouldn’t buy or service my bike anywhere else. Worth the drive for me. They truly want happy customers and go out of their way to help.

These guys are complete experts in everything Gravel. I hired a bike from them and no only did Tim ensure I had a great bike (which I did) but his local knowledge (and patience with my lack of knowledge) was invaluable. I encourage anyone who has even a vague interest in gravel riding should head on over to Merchant!
