2020 Updates – special orders direct to customer, custom bike builds, Hours of Operation, House Calls
Howdy Internet Friends – we’re rolling with the changes in these exceptionally dynamic times. Downtown isn’t the place is was only a few very short weeks ago, and yet we’re still an essential element of how folks move about town.
We have a fast growing list of manufacturers and componentry that you can now Order Directly Thru Us and Have Delivered Right To Your Home. Contact us (call or email) about this and we’ll get, that going right away. This is a great time to support your LBS and build out that home workshop with a new repair stand, specialty tools or pressurized pumps for mounting new tubeless tires. Everyone’s chirping about indoor trainers, so contact us about what’s good from Wahoo or Topeak.
Also, we are super close to receiving our pre-sale Crust Bombora’s, and have 1 Med and Lg left unclaimed, so act now to get your project started! We also have a couple of Med Evasions, which might just be the perfect bug out bike.
We’ve adjusted our hours of operation to reflect the change in downtown culture. Pandemic Hours are:
Mon – Appt Only
Tues-Fri – 9-5ish
We are also offering some House Calls for those who prefer or cannot make the trip downtown.
We hope all of you are safe and healthy and we are all working diligently to flatten the curve so that we can begin to re-shape how we work, live, and explore downtown and the entire PNW. We’re grateful for your support and encouragement, and we’d also love to hear your stories of encouragement as well, so keep sharing and keep caring! We’ll see you out there before long.

With road work along FR26 and FR99, the north side of Mt St Helens’ Windy Ridge (the Blast Zone) is seeing very little activity this summer. And so when a group of friends had in mind to take on the Ape Canyon/Smith Creek Epic we knew we would have a chance to enjoy “surfing the pumice” minus any crowds.
