Will be in Columbus for 4 or 5 days next week and would like to know the cool bike shops to hit while there. I'm a roadie, formerly a Columbus resident but haven't been back in maybe 10yrs.
Also would be interested in any shops that deal in quality used road bikes or vintage parts.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
KRhea

KRHea,

A fairly new bike shop downtown is B1 Bikeshop, started by a current Columbus bike messenger and frequented by many of the same ilk. Pretty high on the coolness ratings, and you might find some nice used bikes there. Check it out at http://www.b1bicycles.com/.

B1 is a small shop and downtown. You might also like http://www.baerwheels.com/, which is in the Clintonville area, just north of the OSU campus on high street at weber rd.
