New bike day can involve a long wait lately...
charlestonbicyclecompany.com looked like this today:
70 years ago, you might have thrown the box away, but that was not the best idea.
This “Summertime Dream” Bianchi Aria would look so sparkly if the sun was shining! But, we couldn’t wait til summer to show it off.
CBC has bikes! Re-supply has been building, and they’re beginning to collect on the ground here a bit, finally. And more incoming!
New Bike Day has changed a lot since ‘57!
The Nth Annual CBC Turkey Day Ride had a pretty good turnout for 2020! We appreciate all the old friends and new friends that joined us.
CBC hopes to see you at the Turkey Day Ride Thursday morning...after that, we will be CLOSED THROUGH SUNDAY for a much-needed break.
We'll be back on Monday, and we will be posting then about the impending arrival of NEW BIKES!

Built up a gorgeous Bianchi Oltre XR3 today! Every day is new bike day for somebody!

Last few months: wild ride! We're running with doors open until further notice.
We are doing tons of repairs, and have only a few bikes on hand right now. We will be posting updates as we get them.
We’ve been mostly too busy to post, and for that we thank you, our friends and neighbors. We are glad to help keep you rolling!
As always, every day is new bike day for someone!
Just a reminder:
We are currently doing business with locked doors, 5 days/week.
This means Tuesday-Saturday, 10am-5pm. During those times, call us when you get here.
We are closed Sundays and Mondays for now.
