Barry’s Bikes – Bismarck, ND
I know this is a little late for some but in case you have not heard there is a new bike shop coming to the Bismarck/Mandan area. Barry’s Bikes will be opening their doors sometime in late March. This is going to be a rider owned bike shop that is going to welcome everyone from the beginning rider to the seasoned vet. From talking with Barry I got the feeling this is going to be a rider’s style bike shop where you can stop in on a ride and talk bikes, or just hang out. He is already planning some group rides that will definitely cater to some of you new riders in the area. I definitely like what I am hearing so far because I really feel we need more of that in the area. Make sure you stop by www.mountainbikingx.com to check for updates on group rides and such, since our group of riders will also be working with Barry to plan some rides. You can also call or stop by the shop for more info.
They are going to be a fully authorized dealer for Giant Bicycles along with offer bikes from Swobo. Now it goes with out saying that I think Giant is one of the best brands on the market. This will be a nice addition to the area. I have seen some of the new Giants up close and they are beautiful bikes. The have top of the line specs, on top notch well built frames. Look for a few reviews to follow on Mountainbikingx.com since I am going to ride a few and tell you what I think. Swobo for those of you that don’t know is a bike and clothing maker out of San Francisco. They make some interesting coaster, single speed, fixed gear and internal hub bikes.
Along with the bikes they will carry a full line of clothing from some manufacturers that you have not seen in town before. Two of these are companies which specialize in Women’s clothing, Harlot, and Sheila Moon. And of course they will be a fully service shop with some of the best Mechanics in town, so take your rig in for its spring tune up.
Some of you will recognize Barry from old Dakota Cyclery days and some of you may not know him, but once they are open stop in and say Hi, He is a great guy that is knowledgeable about biking and is easy to shoot the shit with.
The shop is located at 112 South Hannifin Street, Bismarck, ND 58504. I will repost when they are open.

Barry,
Thanks for helping sponsor the Bismarck-Mandan Safety Council’s Bike Rodeo that is happening on July 26th 2008 10:00am to 2:00pm at 600 S. 2nd St. Bismarck. It’s volunteers like you that make events like this happen in our community. Your dedication to making Bike Safety a priority is very much appreciated.

I know one thing, I’ll be going to Barry’s. I just bought some handle bar grips at Epic and they charged me MORE than manufactured suggested retail price and I didn’t get the end caps that are supose to come with them. I called them about it and now I’m geting the run around.
Update, after over a week I finally got the end caps. I’m happy I got them, but it was way more hassle then it should of been. I’m still going to check out Barry’s shop.
Hi Barry,
Looking to do some road biking the last week of June with some folks. I’m a Bismarck native that now lives in MN and will need to do some training for Rag Brai (Yeah!!!) . I’m a beginner who’d like to do 40 miles a few times when I’m back June 21-28. Cheers. Shar
