Giant is the largest manufacturer of bicycles on the planet. They have more types of bikes than any competition. Road bikes range from $700–$11,000 per bike. Mountain bikes range from $300–$7,500. They have Downhill bikes, Cruisers, Commuters, Cyclocross bikes and Tandems. They produce an electric bike for the elderly and they produce a bike without pedals for kids. They also have a large Giant branded parts and accessories (P&A) line that cannot be purchased online. |

Raleigh is our secondary line and the oldest manufacturer of bicycles on the planet. The Raleigh name speaks to the customer who is looking for old fashioned quality. My grandpa owns a Raleigh and so does my niece. This brand spans generations of riders. They have bikes in all groups except full suspension mountain bikes. The Avenir line of P&A is nice, and the commuter / comfort line is their specialty. |

|
Kona is newer and focuses on the off-road mountain bike group. They don't have any road bikes that are for racing. The Kona bikes are highly marketed in magazines to a younger generation of riders who need more suspension for bigger drops and jumps. The style of this brand is conducive to extreme riding and fills that market need. They compliment the Giant Mountain line well to offer more choices per price point. |

|
Felt is also a newer company, and the first truly global bicycle manufacturer, with an American president and a European president. The marketing for this brand has been split between the racing crowd and the commuter. They offer more comfort-cruiser color and pattern styles than any other group. The race bikes are especially high quality and the local racers request it a lot. Felt provides a nice compliment to the Giant road bike selection for more color and styles. |

|
Haro is a secondary line that provides fill-in bikes for the entry level mountain bike line. Its primary focus for Paradise Creek is BMX. It is a nice compliment to the Redline brand to offer a choice for both the BMX and mountain. Haro is growing in popularity again. |

|
Redline only offers BMX and Cyclocross bikes. They are low cost and close. Redline is shipped from Seattle and does not require any minimums or pre-season orders. We typically carry few Redline cross bikes, but have sold them to the budget conscious entry level rider on request. |
|
|
Bell / Giro is the largest providers of helmets in the world. They have the most models and the best warranty. It's a name people trust. They also provide sun glasses. The sunglasses are typically $100–$200 each and fit well with the helmets. |
|
|
Pearl Izumi is the only clothing line we carry. Pearl is a complete, high quality offering to meet specific needs of the cyclist ranging from the elite to the commuter. They have gender specific Mountain bike, Triathalon, road bike, foul weather, racing, and touring gear. They're not known for their low cost; they are known for the ability to provide comfort. They have 60 years of experience. |
