Whether you like riding around the block or over the roughest terrain in Charlotte, several local shops can help you enjoy some cycling fun. They offer everything from the latest bikes and gear to quality repair services. The bike shops near our Charlotte apartments include:

Charlotte Cycles

At Charlotte Cycles, you'll find the largest bike selection in town. The shop's expert mechanics assemble and test ride every bicycle to ensure proper function and safety.

The Spoke Easy

A full-service bike shop, The Spoke Easy works to "bring the joy back into cycling." The friendly team is passionate about riding. When they aren't at the shop, you'll likely find them pedaling along local trails or competing in races. They'll answer all your questions and help you find the right set of wheels for your biking needs. Along with the bikes, the shop also offers tune-ups and expert repair services.

Uptown Cycles

Uptown Cycles welcomes everyone from casual riders to seasoned competitors. Founder Chris Sheehan grew up in Northern California, where he started riding at the local velodrome at thirteen. Chris later competed professionally and opened Uptown Cycles here in Charlotte in 2008. Today, Chris enjoys getting to know his customers and sharing his love of the sport of cycling. The varied selection includes mountain bikes, headlights, and car racks. If you're looking for group fun, don't miss the shop's Monday Night Bikes and Beer Rides. The route varies between 23 and 30 miles, depending on daylight.

When you aren't riding, enjoy some hair-raising fun at Charlotte's Whitewater Center. Finally, to call The Palmer home, please contact us. Our leasing team would love to discuss everything our apartments in Charlotte have to offer.
