Bruce Gordon's Bicycle Gallery and Boutique - The Grand Opening

Hello friends! We are very excited to invite you to the grand opening of our shop, the first time ever we've had a proper brick and mortar face to the business. It's been a long time dream to have this, and it is our hope that we can turn this space in to not only a fixture in our local community, but something unique that people will want to come from far and wide to see. The shop will feature not only our bikes, but a gallery of every bike Bruce has built himself over the last 40 years. We will be carrying products that adhere to our personal preference of things that are both high quality and manufactured by the same people who's name is on the product, not outsourced to nameless mega factories of questionable quality and care. We also have a full service shop, and will be able to help you with any sort of bike projects from standard tune ups, wheel building, custom bike builds and more. All this sharing the space where all of our bikes and products are made!

Anyway, we hope to see you October 26th to help us kick off this new chapter at Bruce Gordon Cycles!

PS. We will have beer. And Bruce might wear a fez. Come hang out, and bring all your friends! And please help us spread the word!

THE REMODEL IS FINALLY FINISHED!!!!

Our Remodel is finally done.

We have spent the past couple of months remodeling our Office and Showroom.  It was way more work than I expected, but I am very pleased and it was well worth it.

We have a new Feral Shop Cat named Fat Albert

After 37 years I finally have my own office.

Also we have enlarged our showroom and are starting a “Boutique” Bike Shop that will carry high end parts and components – such as White Industries, King Cage, Honjo, Nitto, Brooks, and many others.  We welcome any suggestions on parts that people think we should carry.

I’m also looking forward to having a Mechanic to do repairs, wheel building, and bike setup (anyone with experience who is interested in this opportunity – give me a call)

Also, I have added a gallery upstairs where I can display my collection of every bike I have built for myself since 1974.

There are 25 complete bikes and 6 frames – it is quite an interesting collection.  Everyone who has seen it has had the same reaction – WOW!!

I am hoping to find someone to partner with to run the new parts of the business, so I can get back to what I do best – making stuff.

This person must be “Computer & Interweb Marketing Savy”. 

If anyone is interested in this opportunity – please give me a call, or, send me an email with your number and I will call you.

I will be at the Interbike Show in Las Vegas from September 17^th to the 20^th at the King Cage Booth #1066.  Anyone who wants to talk – stop by.  

I will be back in the shop September 23rd     

Regards,

Bruce Gordon

Rare 44cm BLT for Sale (Hardly Used)

As the title says - I am selling a Rare 44cm Taiwanese BLT for a friend.
I'm not making any $$$ off the sale and there will be no California Sales Tax.
I have been out of stock of this size for a year or more, and there will be no more coming.

The bike cost $1725 + $ 300 assembly when new.
It is for sale to the first person who wants to pick it up for $1500 total.
This price is for someone to pick it up in Petaluma - I do not want to pack it up.

It has been ridden about 100 miles with no touring.  The woman who owns it decided she won't be going touring in the forseeable future, so, she wants me to build her a more "Race like Gravel Grinder".

It is a 26" wheel bike.  It has a virtually new 9 speed Shimano LX group - includes Front and Rear Bruce Gordon racks (made in Petaluma).  It has a 9cm 15 degree rise stem.
Complete bike minus pedals and water bottle cages.

If it was a level top tube bike it would be a 54.4cm frame center to center.
It has a "Virtual Top Tube length of 54.0cm center to center.

If you are interested - please give me a call (707) 762-5601 - PLEASE NO EMAILS!!!!

P.S. - I have a few New Taiwanese BLT's left for sale - 3 of the 52cm BLT's and 3 of the 56cm BLT's left in stock - when they are gone, they are gone.

Regards,
Bruce Gordon
