New Eco-friendly Chain Lube! Same Price or lower than the rest!
Many companies are making "green" lubes now but none are as dedicated as Skip to Renew. S2R is new to the cycling industry and they've set out to only make sustainable, plant and algae based lubes that won't harm the environment. S2R's Re:Cyclist chain lube is completely biodegradable, non-toxic, and prevents rust. Best of all, it works really well. It keeps your drivetrain almost as clean as dry lubes and can last through multiple rides like a wet lube. You won't find it all over your rims though, it stays put on your chain. Good for your bike, and good for everyone. What more could you want from a chain lube?
Features
Made from plants and algae
Clings to chain
Cleaner than other wet lubes
Quiets noisy drivetrains
Non-Toxic
Biodegradable
Prevents Rust

Job opportunity!
Now Hiring! We are expecting a big summer and could use some help from someone competent in bicycle mechanics and a natural people person. email info@rollupbikeshop.com or stop on by the shop.
We appreciate academic excellence - 15% Discount, Always.
We will always offer a 15% discount to students, teachers, and school district employees!
Here is why:
Students who work hard and maintain a 2.0 GPA or higher deserve a reward. Bikes are a great way to achieve this. Quality of life improves with mobility and the ability to exercise.
Teaching is a profession which is not rewarded with a large paycheck, but in other more indirect ways. Bicycles are one of them.
School district employees are crucial to the function of our school system. Without them the gears don't turn. So we want to help their gears turn, in turn.
The fine print:
Students must prove the GPA with report card.
Teachers and employees must show I.D. Badge or pay-stub

custom bike build - schwinn "Sports Tourer"
Our friend Daymond picked out a 66cm Schwinn "Sports Tourer" to break down and rebuild as a fixed gear. We are all really happy with how its coming along.
Not only is it cheaper to build a "fixie" with the right parts at the right price, it is a great learning experience, one that is very important in making a bike yours and yours alone.
We switched out the bottom bracket for something a little more modern and serviceable, added some cranks and an appropriately sized chain-ring, and threw on some straight handlebars. Matching blue tires and chain was a nice touch! Now he just needs to finish stripping the old yellow paint and pick out a new color. Talk about custom!
Here are some before and after pics of the build in progress:
