As of last Saturday, Big Wheel Cycles has closed. The gas station/convenience store that owns the building they reside in wants to expand, and failed to renew their lease. And so another Austin bike shop bites the dust...

James of the Cyclebum Blog has been doing a Big Wheel Cycles retrospective on his site over the past few week. He posted his latest installment today, so check it out for a trip down memory lane.

I've frequented this shop on occasion since back when it was under the Discovery banner, and have known several wrenches that have worked there over the years. They've always been a fair shop and a good crew to deal with. Good luck with your future endeavors, y'all.

some bike shops are raking it in..sorry bout the biz...start a new one..sexy little bicycles...might have better luck..i always know people in the market...get up! play polo! see the rockets on the 4th..have diversity in your new shop, k?
