If you thought to yourself, "hey I know what they're about, they're a bike shop", you'd be mostly right. But, the fact that you clicked on the about Blackstone Bicycles link tells us you were hoping for something more. So, here it is... In all it's glory and wordy nonsense; The Blackstone Bicycles about us page. Alert the media!

The shop is a full service bike shop with a focus on service. We love fixing bikes and our mission statement, if there ever was one, revolves around getting people's bikes back to them as quickly and efficiently as possible. Being riders we know just how much it sucks to wait two or three weeks for your bike, especially when the getting is good.

We ride, a lot, and we know that you like to ride too. That being said, we strive to get your repairs done right the first time, and to get you your bike back to you as soon as possible. We perform all minor repairs on the spot, with tune ups and more involved work (suspension overhauls, brake bleeds, etc.) typically being completed in one to three days. We will work on all makes and models including E bikes. If we can’t fix it we probably know someone who can, and we’ll get you to the right place if needed.

As well as fixing bikes we also sell all kinds of bikes, clothing and accessories from SALSA, IBIS, Transition Bikes, Revel, Surly, KHS, Banshee, Haro, Masi, Endura, Serfas, Fox, Rock Shox, WTB, SRAM, KALI, All City, Kenda, Maxxis, Park Tool and so on.

We tend to try most of the products we carry and if we don't like them, for whatever reason, we stop stocking them. It's that simple. The shop may be better known as a "mountain biker’s" shop but we also commute, and ride gravel and road ride. We like to think of ourselves as well-rounded cyclists, and we encourage others to consider this an option to the needless categorization and pigeon-holing so popular among the masses.

We also like to support our favorite local cycling advocacy groups. NEMBA, NBW and RI Bike Coalition members as well as local Bikeway volunteers are all extended a discount as an appreciation for their hard work and (unpaid) service to the local cycling communities. 

WEEKLY RIDE

There is a weekly mountain bike ride at Lincoln Woods every Wednesday (weather permitting). While not a “shop ride” at this point it is a standing ride with solid attendance.

Meet at the the covered bridge by 6:00PM. If interested, call the shop for more info and check our facebook page for any updates.
