New Bike Shop: Redmons

Well westside peeps, there is a lovely new bike shop that has recently opened up on Venice Blvd. Redmons is a promising little bike boutique. I stopped in and Erica came out to greet me and said it was fine if I took some pictures. While I snapped away she told me about their product lines and was really helpful with answering my questions. No cocky attitude whatsoever. I don't know if everyone who works there is as lovely, but I will think positively and assume they are.

The shop carries Pashley, Gazelle, Public, Linus, and Pake bikes. Only the classic style bikes are in stock but it seems you can order any model made by the companies they carry. They carry nutcase helmets and some nice bags and clothing and bells and jewelry and sunglasses. It kind of felt like being in a RRL. But just bikes. It was really clean and all of the bikes were beautiful. The diversity in the lines they carry give a decent range of prices to suit many budgets. Of course I wish they could carry some of the harder to find bikes or different models of the lines they do have, but this is a more than decent assortment.

They are having an opening party this Saturday with drinks and music. If you are on the west side of town Saturday sounds like an awesome time to check out this shop.
