Bike shops in Vancouver, BC

[dr. drew]

I am headed up to Vancouver on business next week. Anybody know of some cool bike shops to check out in my spare time up there? I probably won't have enough time to ride, but there's got to be some cool shops up in the capitol of the freeride universe.

While you are at Cove, go in and check out Marzocchi. Its 2 blocks away on Rupert street. Nothing much to see in there, however at least you got to check it out. Plus the guys in there will talk crap with you.

The Cove is a must. That place is epic. So many of todays top freeriders chilled there when they were kids.

If you can't get to the shore or if you can't get outta downtown, try Simon's on Robson and Granville. http://www.simonsbikeshop.com/

You could prolly hit it on your way to/from the Cecil :)

OnTop is my favorite. I stop there everytime I head to whistler, easy access right off the free way.

On Top is my favorite shop too. Dan is the man. I order Canadian bike stuff through emails from him all the time. We stop there every year on our Whistler trip too.

John Henrys is also a good shop just because they have so much inventroy. Ive never seen a shop that carried 20-30 HIGH end bikes all at one time.
