Oak Cliff Bicycle Company

We’re coming to the end of another wonderful year, and as we do every year we are gonna start the next one of right too, with good friends, exercise, beautiful journeys, and BIKES! We will take you on a 63ish mile route with some great country roads and lots of picturesque scenery away from the city and traffic. If you haven’t come out with us before we’d love to see you this year. Here is the route.

Meet at the shop we’ll have some coffee and snacks if you woke up too late to grab your own.

Yeah, we’ll be opened on Francis Black Friday. While you’re out, these are some places we like to go to. I know I’m leaving a ton of places out. You know what’s around you, and if you don’t maybe you should give look around.

Wackyms Kitchen Who doesn’t like cookies? Salted Caramel, Margarita those are my faves. Pretty please Santa.

Oak Cliff Coffee Roasters Duh, coffee. I can tell you right now they fit in my stocking. (Hint hint)

F is for Frank Jewelry, hardware, custom… uh anything, check ‘em out.

Dolly Python  Since Jean Paul Gaultier shops there, I think you can find some wonderfulness too.

we are 1976  If you haven’t been, it’ll be your favorite new store.

Re-Geared Amazing artistic gifts made out of bicycle parts donated by us and some of your other favorite bicycle shops.

Oil and Cotton These lovely ladies can teach you how to make anything your imagination can dream of. I made a unitard for the shop cat.

Salvage House Boutique Beautiful vintage inspired dresses, and vintage furniture. You can also let this beautiful young lady restore, redesign or tailor your favorite threads. She put some awesome and stylish reflective details on a friends jacket so he is safer but doesn’t look like a road worker.

Sweet 200 The best hairdos to fix your hair don’ts and manicures for the cuticle blues in town. Grab your S.O. some product or a gift certificate cuz you know everyone wants to look like a million bucks for new years.

If we don’t have what you’re looking for try some of our friends KGS  Trinity  Transit  Bicycles Plus or Switching Gears.

We finally got these sexy suits on our backs!  Your rides just got a bit safer and exponentially more kick ass thanks to the feel, reflectivity, and stellar design of these get-ups so get down on yer bikes. We of course sold out of these instantly and need to place a new order. Now, if you think you can handle the silly folks hatin’ and not understanding the world surrounding them or the flattery you be getting from the folks who do, then send us an email explaining how you are ’nuff legit to wear this kit and we will put you on a pre-order list after your initiation. We don’t like getting burned so we WILL NOT save you a kit if you don’t pre-pay, don’t trip! It’s not about a salary it’s all about reality.

We will post a link to pre-order in the coming weeks.

Thank you all who helped make it so perfect…

Are you as Fred as me, or even more so? Well, we just got in a couple B&M Luxos U Dynamo lights from Peter White Cycles’ first shipment of this brilliant (the pun stays) new product! Not only is it a wonderfully wide spread of light, the U has a handle bar mount button to control functions and is also a USB port to charge devices - the greatest light EVER!!! So handy for long remote tours. My personal preference is to take an external battery that charges off the USB port and use it when your Garmin, iPod, rear light, phone, etc needs more juice. It’ll give your device a steady load rather than fluctuating with your speed. These sold out immediately, but we have one left at the moment. Peter says the next shipment is expected in a few weeks, so holler if you want us to save you one from our next batch of pre-orders. Also, we have a few other B&M dynamo lights on hand, and with the declining cost of hubs reaching as low as $47, it’s a great reason to rethink your illumination options.

In case you forgot, or maybe had no clue, we are Peter White Cycles dealers. We also partner with other Fredtastic suppliers like Compass Bicycles. What does it all mean? You can custom order a full on double rainbow selection of amazing books, great tyres, Rene Hearse parts, or even a SKF bottom bracket—because lord knows it’s time you finally got that! Sick!

Aright kids, I know you’re all HUGE American football contest fanatics, but for those of you who would rather ride your bikes and enjoy some art and good memories then we have something just for you! Or maybe you missed the Sunday Peoples opening, it’ll be a great chance to take a peak at great work as well as the silliness that will ensue from our little bike race event thingy. Don’t want to give away too many details yet, but this should be a interesting race for spectators as well as the riders. We will be tailgating so bring your drink hats and bras or veggie dogs etc. for the grill.

Meet at The Public Trust February 3rd 5:00 to register

$3 and your own bike to race (everyone will get a gift)

TRUSTTHEPUBLIC!

The Foundry Auger may just be the perfect bike for all the gravel/monstercross events coming up. This bike was built to be ridden hard and put away wet. Beautiful Hayes CX5s(which just so happen to perfectly match the  SRAM Force grouppo) make this machine stop great in all conditions. The Velocity A23 rims are ready to go tubeless when you are as well.

We pre-rode the MonsterCross Mayhem and when the bike heard about this it’s been begging me to let it go next time ever since. Maybe you should take it for me! Then there is the SuperMan, Texas Chainring Masacre and the Oklahoma events coming up as well. Ride yer bike!
