Avondale Cycles Moving To Atlanta

The bike shop will open March 4 in the Old Fourth Ward with the name Atlanta Beltline Bicycles.

The Avondale Estates shop that specializes in inexpensive, rehabbed bicycles is moving to the Old Fourth Ward in Atlanta. Benjamin Stimis said he recently shut the doors on Avondale Cycles at 2754 E. College Ave. He will open Atlanta Beltline Bicycles March 4 at 151 Sampson St. NE, Atlanta. Stimis said he planned to stick around Avondale Estates a while but the larger space (2,500 square feet, compared to 1,600 in Avondale Estates) convinced him to make the move. Stimis started out in Avondale Estates with Label Discount, which sells Costco overruns. He put a few fixed-up bikes out front and discovered they sold quickly, so he expanded that part of his businss. The Atlanta store will sell only bikes, he said.

Very excited to have you at the end of my street in O4W!! Now the question is, will you be renting bikes? If so, you will make a killing! While riding my bike, I've been asked several times by people on the Beltline where to rent bikes. I always send them all the way up to Skate Escape on Piedmont.   more ›
