About Us
At Eleven Bikes, we're a small, independent bike shop with a big passion for cycling. We're a close-knit team that supports one another, shares knowledge, and takes pride in delivering honest advice, quality workmanship, and exceptional customer service.
We're deeply committed to our local cycling community and believe bikes should be accessible to everyone. We work with all types of riders, from commuters and enthusiasts to families who rely on their bikes every day. We have extensive experience with cargo bikes, helping families find, maintain, and repair bikes that make everyday journeys easier, safer, and more enjoyable.
Whether we're supporting local events, helping someone choose their first bike, keeping a family cargo bike on the road, or servicing a high-performance road bike, our goal is always the same: to provide expert service and build lasting relationships with our customers and our community.
