| Wright Brothers Cycle Works has been
serving the Seattle cycling community since 1974. We are a unique
bike shop, not only handling the repairs of every day commuters but
also cyclocross, road racing, offroad, and randonneurs. (Sorry,
we are not an authorized Huffy or Murray service center.) We also
sell common and hard-to-find bike parts and accessories.
Wright Brothers features a co-op workshop space and three levels of bike repair classes. For details on co-op membership, call or stop by the shop during business hours. Want to be in a class? New classes are forming right now. Call to put your name on the waiting list. NEWS: Oil and metals prices affecting bicycle shops nation wide. Bicycle consumers will see price increases across the board due to prices in oil and metals. Tires and tubes will increase in price because oil is an integral part of the ingredients. This is the third year of a "bike" boom and certain supplies will not be able to keep up with demand. Metal shortages will affect production and there will be "gaps" in inventories in late July and all through August of 2008. Production delays have extended from 3 months to 5/6 months. It appears the "just in time" business model doesn't work. Coming soon, slide show on how to build a fixie, from the frame up. I bought a custom Marinoni Pista frame which will be shipped soon to the shop. There is a box of parts that I've been collecting, all Campy of course. I had some old titanium track rims I built onto some Campy track hubs with double-butted D.T. spokes and bright gold alloy 16mm nipples that are ready to install. Stay tuned.... C.Hadrann KUOW's 'Weekday' radio show on June 22, 2006 featured bicycles, bicycle commuting, and the Solstice Parade with our own Charles Hadrann.
