Bike Shops in Wheat Ridge, CO

There is a huge bike shortage so you will need to be creative and call around. Have you checked the Pro's Closet for used? There are several that may work depending on your size. [https://www.theproscloset.com/collections/mountain-bikes?tags=wheelsize-275%2Creartravel-hardtail&page=1](https://www.theproscloset.com/collections/mountain-bikes?tags=wheelsize-275%2Creartravel-hardtail&page=1) Also the Trek store on baseline probably has more stock then other places since they only sell their own brands. Not sure what they have for entry level. There is also a FRONT RANGE BIKE SWAP facebook page that I know people have had luck with.

I spent about a month tracking down a new road and mountain bike and managed to snag a Domane AL4 and an X-Caliber 8. They were literally the last two mid range Treks in my size within 500 miles and not even my top choice as I was looking for an AL5 and XC 9. I was told that If I wanted to preorder their of those I'd see delivery in April. Of 2022. Yes seriously. Shit is going incredibly fast if it's not all already gone. Like literally the second a store gets a scheduled order in, someone is putting down 50% to reserve it for the day it actually gets to the shop. So the deal is, put together a list of bikes that would be acceptable to you and then call every shop within your maximum driving distance and go down the list of what's coming in over the next few months. If someone has something coming in, drive your ass down there on the spot and put down a deposit. Do this once a week until you find something. Don't be afraid to look in Wyoming, Utah, Kansas, etc. And if you're willing to drive even farther, Iowa has tons of bikes. Or keep trying Facebook marketplace and Craigslist. I just sold a Specialized MTB in craigslist and legit got 8 emails a day about it (with the normal flaky craigslist bullshit). I got a lot for it. Like $600 over what I would have gotten pre covid.

full cycle's been boasting about getting new bikes in stock lately, maybe see if they've got any in that price range

I think full cycle has some Kona Honzos in right now, sounds about right for what you’re looking for

If you are willing to head down to South Denver/ Littleton area there is a great shop called Pedal. They have really impressed me with their bike selection through the pandemic as the owner does a great job keeping things stocked. The brands they carry include Cannondale, Salsa, and Santa Cruz just to name a few. Check out their site at [https://www.pedalonline.com/](https://www.pedalonline.com/) or give them a call they will take good care of ya.

The Bike Depot also has a new Mariposa location open, which might be easier to get to. The Park Hill one is a bit of a drive.

The Bicycle Broker on 38 th Avenue. 6190 West 38 th. I purchased two bikes from them and they have done yearly tune up on them.
