Heritage Bicycles General Store - Chicago

I heard a rumor that Bowery Lane Bicycles was going to open up a shop in Chicago and has started fabricating frames in Chicago.

 

This rumor was started by me :)

Waiting to submit the permits to the city to start build out and we will go from there. 

 

Location: Lincoln and Wellington

 

Good News- We have already completed our frist run of our new bike from our Chicago fabrication. It looks great. We are taking them to get painted next week.

 

Note- The shop and the line of bikes from Chicago will be called "Heritage Bicycles"

 

Cheers

That seems like a good location. Lots of bicycle traffic on both Lincoln and Southport, and it's an affluent neighborhood.

 

I'll have to check it out once you're open.

AWESOME! The windows look even better now! We put the first bike off the Heritage line in the other window and some Stumptown coffee as well.
