A & M Bicycles Launches Website/Blog

One of the oldest bike shops in the St. Louis area, A & M Bicycles, has launched their first website at www.ambicycles.com. Part website and part blog, the site is just getting started.

In the interest of full disclosure, I have no financial interest in A & M Bicycles nor am I being compensated for talking about the shop here. i just like going there. Owner Karl Becker is a wealth of information on bicycling and life. I know I’ll get a straight answer from Karl. I was the driving force behind getting his new website started. How is that for being a dedicated customer?

I’ve bought two new bikes at A & M — a Raleigh mountain bike about six years ago and a custom Surly road bike last Fall. Before having the new Surly I bought a used Trek 720 from Karl that got me through several years at very low cost. I’ve also had Karl assemble a bike I ordered online (the orange Kronan regular readers have seen numerous times). Right now Karl is building a commuter bike for me based on a used Cannondale hybrid.

If you are interested in biking in St. Louis check out A & M Bicycles — on the web and in person.
