The one and only TRUE "fixed-gear" friendly shop is Counterbalance Bicycles in Queen Anne. Just ask for Adam or Peter. www.counterbalancebicycles.com

You could check out recycled cycles but ever since they switched over to "buy-a-new" cycles intead of recycled cycles they are just a waste of old junk parts and brand new bikes. All of the employees snag up the good used parts before they ever hit the floor and they will buy your used parts for pennies and "re-sell" them for way too much $$. Second Acent in Ballard is a quaint little shop they occasionally have good used bits but, bikes are not their fortay it is mostly used outdoor equipment.

If your a messenger visiting and want to "check out the scene" the monorail coffee shop at 5th and pike is the place during the week. But beware if your a fakenger they don't care for them.
