Bennys Bike Shop

Chains need a lot of love this time of year. Don’t let a lack of l**e make you look like a newb.

As an independent bike store we don’t get access to some of the big brands, but we do get hold of some awesome brands. Proudly flying the Yeti flag as a new local service centre, sales and advisory., and of course we ride a couple of them as well.

Amazing what you find while dusting the shelves. Full SRAM GX Transmission drivetrain sitting in the corner. So we are selling it cheap. Normally $2399 for the ‘we didn’t know we had it’ price of $1699. Priced to clear.

Some great updates coming out of Revelate for our summer bikepacking season. Nice new front roll rack, with plenty of room for cables underneath, and gadgets above.

Workshop has been unusually busy this time of year. Plenty of nice new builds leaving the workshop. Mostly road. And we have some awesome builds we are still working on. See if we can drag ourselves off the tools for some more content.

Sweet little video of some of the work we do to get a bike on the road for a big bikepacking event.

Gravel bikes can also ride awesome singletrack, mud trails and pretty much anywhere. As long as you have the right tires. These guys do it for us.

That magical time of year, where hard decisions have to get made. Do I risk the weather, or succumb to indoor training. It’s a trap, ride outside.

Normal operating procedures for a long weekend are in place. We are taking the weekend off to ride. Weather is looking awesome. Enjoy the sunshine and ride your bikes.
