The shop does $4k worth of rentals during the summer with the 2 closest shops being 12 and 17 miles away and there are NO box stores. Zero...Zip. It has ~1500 sq/ft of floor space including the work area along with a basement that jammed packed with 300 bikes.
This rent reads like a deal made during the go go times prior to the great recession. Reads more to me like time to open a shop down the street.
