Welcome to Bikesport!

2013 marks our 34th year in business.  Bikesport is conveniently located near the center of Houston (1.5 miles East of the Galleria, a stone's throw from Greenway Plaza and on the fringes of River Oaks) Bikesport is well known for its friendly, knowledgeable staff and for having a really good selection of often-needed, hard to find small parts in stock.  We have convenient hours and a large selection of clothing and accessories.  We carry primarily road, mountain and specialty bikes and offer renowned service on all bike-store-quality bikes.  Among the 5 of us on staff, we have over 110 years of experience in the bike industry.  If you're looking for something other than the usual cookie cutter bike shop, stop by and give us a try.

And to those of you who have been supporting us for these 34 years, a huge THANK YOU!

Looking for some $aving$?

There are always a few bikes that need to find a new home.  Here's a quick link to the bikes we have on sale.  Please note that in-stock bikes show sale prices, out of stock bikes don't.  Check back often to see what pops up.  You never know, you just may find a bike you've been lusting after.

Come ride with us!

Join us Wednesday evenings for a 22 mile ride around town.  Helmets (always) and lights (at this time) are required. Pace is 16-18 MPH.  This is a "no drop" ride so you won't be left behind but, please be prepared to keep up the advertised pace.  Ride leaves at 6 PM... Sharp!!  It's all just for fun.  Come on and join us.  You can find a route map here. Get in a new weekly habit!  Hope to see you here!

If You Have This, You'll Also Like This!

Many riders purchase cycling shorts to take advantage of their breathable and wicking fabric and comfortable padding. That's a great start, but did you know that cycling gloves offer protective and comfy padding too? And, have you considered a jersey? Much more than a fashion statement, they wick and breathe to keep you dry, plus they often include long zippers for easy on/off and ventilation. And, they have easily accessed pockets in back perfect for your energy food, cell phone and wallet. Swing by and try one on!

Some Random Ramblings...

I was thinking the other day and realized that June of 2011 marks the 32nd anniversary of our   beginnings.  That's a long time.  Longer than a lot of bike store staff has even been born!  I think we've come a long way in that time.  We've seen other stores come and go.  We built our own building 19 years ago.  We've seen bike manufacturers and accessory makers show up and then disappear.  We've seen bike lines expand from 8 models to over 200!  We've seen gear clusters go from 5 to 11 cogs with only 4mm of space added!  We've watched the evolution of bikes from steel frames to an almost complete change to carbon fiber.  We changed our name just over 23 years ago.  We've seen a lot of changes and it's all been pretty interesting.  And it all started here back in 1979...

Today's Cycling Tip

For Optimum Comfort, Check Your Road Bike Handlebar Width - Surprisingly, with all the attention paid to road bike seat height and stem length, handlebar width is often overlooked. Unfortunately, bars that are too narrow can leave you feeling cramped, contribute to numbness in your hands and cause difficulty breathing. And, bars that are too wide can make you feel stretched out and can also contribute to hand numbness. The handlebars that come stock on most bikes get wider as the frame size gets larger. Consequently, if you are tall with narrow shoulders or short with wide shoulders, and you did not change the width of your handlebar, it's possible that you're a candidate for a change. If you question how your handlebars fit, we can help.
