The store, in what was previously a Paperchase, mirrors the company’s main Hertford premises by being more than a traditional bike shop, offering a wide range of services including bike repair and maintenance as well as the latest accessories for all levels of rider.

The Stortford shop has a broad range of bikes, focusing on electric and road, with a selection of hybrid and mountain bikes too, as well as popular Frog children’s bikes.

The team are on hand to guide customers to their perfect bike with big-name brands including Trek, Marin, Moustache, Brompton, Riese & Muller, Benno, Tern, and Electra available. And if the Stortford store does not have the bike they need, it can be quickly brought over from the Hertford premises.
