Village Cycle Center

Village Cycle Center on Wells Street in Old Town is one of the biggest bike stores in the city, with a floor full of Trek and Electra bikes across road, hybrid, comfort, kids’ and electric categories. The shop runs a repair and service department, does bike fitting and custom builds, and lets buyers return a new bike within 30 days under the shop’s test ride policy.
