Spokes Bikes, an award winning Renfrewshire based business known for its dedication to quality and personal service, is thrilled to announce the opening of its second store located directly across from the scenic Battery Park in Greenock, Inverclyde.
Through a passion for cycling and the outdoors - Spokes Bikes was born through lockdown and began operating in the Summer of 2020. Initially operating as a mobile cycle repair service throughout Renfrewshire and north Inverclyde. Fast forward to November 2021 and the first retail shop opened in the village of Bridge of Weir.
February 2022 saw the need for larger premises and with the adjacent shop becoming available, Spokes Bikes expanded to occupy both shops from March 2022 onwards.
Ahead of their Greenock store opening, owner's of Spokes Bikes, Ian and Julie Stokes commented,
“After winning the award of the Most Promising New Business at the Renfrewshire ROCCO awards in November 2023, we began to look at growth opportunities for the business and as we already had a number of loyal customers in Inverclyde using our services, we thought there may be demand for an Independent Bike shop to be based there.
We found the perfect location across from Battery Park (ideal for a shop with e-bikes!), over the last few months we have invested in various areas of the business including our click and collect service & e-commerce as well as strengthening our team of expert mechanics who have experience working on all makes and models of bikes. We also now stock Cube and Merida bikes adding to our existing Ridgeback, Frog and Cinelli offering.
We’re looking forward to welcoming the public from 6th April onwards, bringing our ethos of great customer service and a good quality range of bikes for all ages and abilities alongside service & repair, cycle advice, demo rides and with bike rentals coming soon.”
