Yep, Ordinary Bike is just your average bike shop. Really, what bike store doesn't have brightly colored walls, an intense selection of accessories for both beginners and professional riders, and a staff so friendly and helpful that they could convince a hard-core atheist to believe in God? Their repair shop is staffed with knowledgeable employees who are patient enough to talk you through all your options when your bike needs some damage control. They somehow manage to cater to a wide variety of cyclists, along with the too-cool Fourth Avenue crowd, without resorting to hipster jeans or pretentiousness. That quality of service comes from a true love of riding—seen in details like the decorated tags on used bikes. But, really, every bike shop in town can say that, right? Right?
