We have an assortment of new bikes, some are the current model year and a few are a year or two old, on deep discount right now, but only until they're sold - these are one time deals to help us reduce inventory as we make room for the new model year. Take advantage of these deals while they last!

Well, it's that time of year again. Believe it or not autumn is upon us. We're not exactly sure what happened to summer this year but that's the way it is sometimes. Despite the less than excellent weather we've had another good year here at the shop but as always we want to make sure that current year bike models move out the door before the new year arrives, so all in stock bikes are now 15% off.
Whether it's a road racer, a hardtail or dulie, a cruiser or singlespeed, or even a tandem or unicycle, they've all gotta move, so come down to the shop and check out what's left. Models and sizes are more limited this time of year but we still have some decent stock left so we think you won't leave disappointed. Hope to see you soon.

We don't know quite where summer has gone, and we're not prepared to call it a wrap yet, but at the time of this posting kids are starting to think about heading back to school, the fruit trees are ripe, and the summer racing and road trip season is coming to an end. All that means we want to make sure we move all of the '09 summer clothing before fall and winter hits so we have room for 2010 merchandise in the new year. As is our tradition we're now offering 30% off all jerseys, shorts, and other summer clothes thru to the fall, so come in now to snap up some good season-end deals and make use of the final weeks of summer '09. We have sleeveless and sleeved jerseys, casual and form fitting shorts, and more, in men's and women's specific designs and sizes, on sale now.
Hygrade Commuters
Sorry - we don't have any Hygrade Commuters available right now. We'll put more together as parts are available.
At Olympia Cycle & Ski we sell a lot of bikes, and we've always prided ourselves in offering a wide range of options in order to satisfy many customers with a variety of needs. So what about the customer who wants to spend as little as possible to get a bike that they can ride around town, can lock up without the fear of a huge economic loss if the bike gets stolen, but who still wants a bike that is well-tuned, well set-up, and reliable?
Well, we think we may have found the answer...Hygrade Commuters. No frills bikes that work well, built from new and used bits and pieces by the best local mechanics in the business, and sold to you at unbelievable prices.
Philosophy
There are various motivators to ride your bike, and most of us share more than one reason to ride. Whether it's for the exercise, or it's to save a bunch of money compared to driving a car, or to get outside and enjoy the fresh air, or whatever, there are plenty of good reasons.
Reduced Footprint. One reason to ride a bike that's getting plenty of attention these days is the extremely limited environmental impact that bikes have on our world. To further try to reduce our footprint why not try to use bike parts that we have lying around instead of ordering brand new stock? If we've already got the parts than obviously no additional resources are going into the production of these bikes, they're not being shipped to us from a far away place, and so on.
A Second Lease on Life. We don't want to get all sentimental or mystic on you here, but the bikes we ride often become personified as good friends to us, and it's always tough to see those friends reach the end of the road (literally), so it sure is great to pull bits and pieces of these lost souls together and create something 'new' that can enjoy life all over again. Refurbishing used bikes and getting them back on the road just seems like the right thing to do.
Low Cost. Listen, we ogle the latest, greatest, most expensive bike just as much as the next guy, and we love the feel of a world-class race worthy machine, but the truth is that that's not always what you need (as much as we often try to convince our spouses otherwise). So, we've come up with a way to put together some bikes at a very low cost to the customer in order to get you on the road or trail with a bike that still gets the job done, and one you can trust.
So here's the deal
We're selling our Hygrade Commuters to you at pretty low prices (the average cost is $200 or less), and they're all at least somewhat used, so obviously we can't offer a warranty on them like we would offer on new bikes and components.
Also, as with any bike purchase at Olympia Cycle & Ski we'd be happy to swap a saddle, a stem, tires, etc. on your new purchase, but with new bike sales we usually allow swaps for free, whereas with most Hygrade Commuter pieces we'll have to charge for the difference in value between the used piece you're removing from the bike and the new piece we're replacing it with. Trust us, it'll still be a great deal.
And with or without a warranty, keep in mind that your Hygrade Commuter was put together by the best mechanics in the business with great attention paid to detail. The parts are all carefully looked over, thoroughly cleaned and tested, and the bikes are built up with the same care that is given to their much more expensive brethren.
All in all, it's a pretty good deal. Come down to the shop today to see what we have in stock - Hygrade inventory is always changing and every bike is a one-off production so it's kinda hit and miss, but we might just have something for you. |
