Autumn Service Specials

By | News, Specials | No Comments

Fall weather has arrived and your long languishing rain bike is ready to get back to work after a summer off. Or maybe your go-fast summer ride is ready to slow down, don some fenders and settle in for a few months of coffee rides. Either way we can winterize your machine to ensure many victorious rides through the Fall and Winter.

PRO Tune Special

To celebrate the falling leaves we’re offering special pricing on our most comprehensive service – the PRO Tune. We’ll take your dirtiest, nastiest bike down to the bare frame, service all bearings, super clean the drivetrain, and rebuild it to it’s former glory. From now thru December take 50% off this tuneup to end all tuneups! Normally priced at $300 for rim brakes and $350 for disc, we’ll get it done for $150 / $175. New parts not included

Fender Up Special

Fenders aren’t just about keeping your buddy’s face dry. They also help keep you dry (well, drier than you would be without them) and go a long way to keeping your bike clean. This means happier riding and less maintenance. You’ll have more friends too!

We’d like to help you experience the joys of fenders, so for the month of October, when you buy a set of PDW Full Metal Fenders ($120) we’ll install them for free! That’s $50 you can put toward post-ride beer. Or coffee. Or avocado toast!

How else can we ‘winterize’ your machine? Here are a few ideas:

  • A new set of wet-weather brake pads for awesome stopping power in the wet
  • A new set of usb-rechargeable or generator powered lights – see and be seen!
  • New tires in wet weather compounds
  • Super, super grippy Arundel Gecko Rubber bar tape – the hands-down shop favorite!

Custom Bicycle Incentive

By | News, Specials | No Comments

INCENTIVE
We are going to get to the point here.  We feel strongly about our custom bicycle process and believe we absolutely add value from start to finish on the creation of a custom bicycle.   We also know people buy bikes elsewhere, and many times need tangible incentives to make decisions.

Beginning October 10th through December 23rd, place an order with us for a custom Seven, Festka, Parlee or Moots complete bicycle, and we’ll offer you the following:
1.  A credit of $500 toward your purchase of new custom bicycle
2.  A credit of $300 towards an Enve wheel upgrade on your new custom bicycle

OUR CUSTOM PROCESS
Many times we get the question, “How does your custom process begin?”   This is a super fair question, and we’ve continued to refine our process so it’s accessible, accurate, and comprehensive.

INITIAL VISIT
We have regular retail hours Tuesday through Saturday.   We welcome anyone at anytime to stop by, say hello, and get to know our shop, and experience the CBS atmosphere and attitude.

TEST RIDE
We have invested in multiple test bikes from Seven, Moots, Festka and Parlee for you to see, touch, feel, and ride. We strongly believe in supporting our brands by having test bikes available for rides. Currently we have the following bikes available for test rides:

  • Parlee Z-Zero in Large/Tall
  • Parlee Chebacco in Medium
  • Parlee Altum R in Medium Large
  • Seven Evergreen SL in 50 cm
  • Seven Evergreen S in 54 cm
  • Seven Axiom SL Disc in 55 cm
  • Seven Axiom SL in 57 cm
  • Seven 622 SLX in 59 cm
  • Festka XCR in 57 cm
  • Festka One in 54 cm
  • Moots Vamoots CR in 58 cm

SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT
While test rides are available, many times we will work with customers who are ready to place an order, and don’t feel the need to test ride a bike.    At this point, the process can be pretty easy.   Schedule an appointment, and we’ll give you our attention to begin the custom bicycle process.   Within this process, we’ll take body dimensions, current bike dimensions, and begin planning your new bike.   Each custom bike process includes working with us to perfect your fit on our fitting bike at no additional charge.

LEAD TIMES
Currently the lead time from Seven and Moots on unpainted bicycles is 4-5 weeks once we have confirmed the design; paint adds an additional 2 weeks.   On Parlees, the lead time is 30 days from a signed confirmation on waxed bikes, and 45 days on painted bikes. Festka lead time is 14 weeks once design is confirmed.

* This incentive only applies to orders placed with us from Oct 9th to Dec 23rd. If you have purchased a custom bicycle from us in 2017 please stop by before the end of year for a thank you gift from The Athletic Community.
