Valued VeloUK advertiser Twenty3c, your local bike shop in the Milton Keynes area, have moved into bigger premises with a bikes and cafe – what a combination!
Stony Stratford’s top bike outlet, moved premises last week and opened to a packed shop full of bike fans. The move sees them not only double their retail space but they also added a 30 seater café to attract passing customers.
So if a new bike doesn’t catch your eye, then a range of delicious cakes and coffees are available to tempt you into their new, spacious home.
“At our previous shop in Swifens Yard we had about 700sq feet of retail space but now, including our Bianchi themed coffee bar, we’ve got 1500sq feet but every inch is already full of bikes to suit all tastes and wallets†explained proprietor Ceri Dipple.
The new shop is in a prime location on Stony Stratford’s High Street (42 – 44 High Street, Stony Stratford, Milton Keynes, MK11 1AQ) and is only a very short ride out into the country lanes of Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire.
“Twenty3c has been running for five years now and, thanks to steady growth since we started, we’d really out-grown our previous shop. One of the biggest impacts has been the London 2012 Games as that really raised the profile of bike racing in this country and we’ve benefited from that” says Ceri who know what its like to ride a bike in anger.
“Many might think that with the country still going through a recession this wouldn’t be the right time to make such a move but for us the opportunity couldn’t have come at a better time.â€
Twenty3c are main stockists for some top bike brands including Bianchi, Colnago, Focus, Orbea and Scott and in addition to a range of racing bikes from beginner to the Elite racing level, they hold a full stock of accessories and clothing, a fully kitted out workshop and also offer a bike fitting service to make sure you get the most out of your Twenty3c purchased racing machine.
