Bicycle Express

Biggest and best quality bike shop in Adelaide with a massive range of the best brands from bikes, parts, kit and accessories. Anything you need they probably have it or can get it. Great crew of staff who are always helpful and knowledgable. My first stop always.

You could drop a lot of money here but it would be so much fun! A great range of bikes (whatever style you’re into) and kids bikes too! Helpful and friendly staff make for repeat visits but gets busy on a Saturday!

Bicycle Express has an excellent range of bicycles, accessories and apparel. In my experience it has one of the best ranges of road bikes in Adelaide — many others prefer to stock limited brands and cater more to mountain bikes.
Generally speaking the service here is very good although at times the staff can get busy with the number of customers in the store. On one occasion I rolled in with a difficult fix and the mechanic came straight out of the workshop and worked his magic — I was back on the road in no time.
Another thing I like about this store is that there are always some products on special, so sometimes you may go in looking for one item and find that you can’t go past a couple of handy accessories going out for a bargain! Also, they will offer you a customer loyalty card giving you 10% off every time.
Did I mention that they have a great range of products?! Only problem for this store is that the online sales options are difficult to compete with.
Also, be careful with the street parking as this area is closely monitored by parking inspectors.

This large store has an extensive range of bicycles and accessories that is quite overwhelming.
It is also open on Sundays during the months of December and January.
BIKES
There are a whole host of mountain, road and recreation bikes, and bicycles designed for women and children.
ACCESSORIES
There is an overwhelming range of accessories and I bought a rear light from the large range which I have been happy with.
SERVICE
Because it is so busy I have had to wait a while for service, even to attract the attention of staff, before but the shop assistants are available, but they are nice, knowledgeable and helpful.
WORKSHOP
The workshop does everything from a basic to a major service.
BIKE HIRE
You can even hire bikes from here, but because they are flash, top-​of-​the-​range Trek bikes you have to fork out a fair amount of cash (from $ 75) plus a hefty deposit.

Skin itching for the feel of sexy lycra? You’re not the only one and this place has a bunch (choose wisely though so it doesn’t bunch). In fact it is probably the best stocked cycle store in Adelaide. This place is like the Ikea of tredlies. Tour Downunder is only months away and if you want to be competing with Eddie Merckx in the peoples Bupa Challenge tour then you better get down there and get your knicks on (lycra shorts).
If you need a cycling product this place probably has it. I bought a Trek road bike a number of years ago and these guys did a great job of decking me out and custom fitting me to my new wheels. With cyclist numbers booming at the moment its probably best you do the same. They always have plenty of end of season stock and anyone in the biz knows you save hundreds and truth be known these things haven’t changed much in the past 100 years. If you have the urge to ride then you’ll jump on any old thing.
I would list the brands in stock but they’re are so many you’re better off just getting down there and mounting your new two wheel steed.

Bicycle Express is one of the largest bike shops I have seen in Adelaide. They have a large range of mountain and road bikes, as well as a few children’s bikes, fixed-​gear bikes and various others. Because the shop is so large you may have to spend a bit of time walking around looking at everything. However, the people working there are extremely helpful. Although they are busy most of the time they are happy to help you chose the bike that would best suit you and answer any of your questions. Once you have bought a bike, they can alter it to fit you and make any other changes you need.
Bicycle Express also sells a large range of accessories. If you need any type of strange addition to your bike, they will have it. This includes much biking attire. Yes that lycra that everyone loves. But as much as everyone hates it, your bottom will definitely appreciate a good pair of bike shorts.
I see Bicycle Express as the ultimate one-​stop-​shop for cycling fanatics. You can go in with nothing and come out with absolutely everything you need to become a cycling superstar. Another service they provide is bike repairs, which always come in handy.
