Outback Bikes is perfectly located in the (despite much gentrification) still delightfully rough-around the edges Euclid Ave stretch of Little Five Points.
Most of the employees look like they live in the neighborhood—tattoos, black clothes, the whole lot. And while I haven’t noticed too many shaved legs, the extensive scarring and grease-blackened hands attest to the fact that these guys know their bikes.
They sold me the first bike of my adult life, and were great about giving me ongoing tune-ups and free advice every time I came into the store.
If you’re in the market for a bike, or think you might be, drop in.
