I'm not a Newcastle resident (but will be next year), but do visit frequently so have some idea.mcgr said:Can anyone recomend any good bike shops in Maitland/Newcastle area that offer good service? I am buying a new road bike and know practically nothing about road bikes so I need someone good who can find the right size bike for me.
Thanks in advance
Thanks for your help, my budget will be between $700 and $800, if I were to visit one where would be the best place?nerdag said:I'm not a Newcastle resident (but will be next year), but do visit frequently so have some idea.
A few options:
Hadley's Cycles (Lambton) - Big store that carries almost everything (kids/dept store bikes to high end road/MTB/DH bikes). Decent service for a store that size. Think they may have a Maitland store as well.
Two Wheel Industries (Hunter Street): More geared towards the road racing scene. Marek (the owner) is a very knowledgable and helpful.
Avanti Plus (Kotara) - used to be on Darby street, but not sure how these guys are for road, but they do seem geared towards the urban/FR/DH scene. Go there for Avanti/Specialized - and they do have the high end bikes as well as entry level gear.
There are a few other stores, but I've never been in them so can't recommend them.

For that budget, your best bet will be Hadley's. Not sure what you may be able to get for that price, but a basic entry level bike should be about that.mcgr said:Thanks for your help, my budget will be between $700 and $800, if I were to visit one where would be the best place?
