Who we are and what makes us different

Charlie's Freewheels is the only bicycle shop in the country providing employment, job training, and hope to young people. Our ten week program begins teaching basic bike mechanic skills by refurbishing a used bike. By the end these participants will have learnt bike safety skills, bike maintenance and be given the bike they worked on along with a lock and helmet. After graduation, we connect interested youth with paid cycling-related internship opportunities and involve them in determining the future direction of our organization.

Winter Bike Storage - News for Ye Olde Bike Shoppe

I’m still working on titles more creative than “updates at the shop”. It can’t be “ye olde” because the shop itself is pretty new.

So then, what’s new at the (fairly) new bike shop?

Storage! That’s what. We will be offering bike storage for the wonderful winter season.

Read our advertisement below for further info:

CHARLIE'S BIKE SHOP INTRODUCES WINTER BIKE STORAGE

Do you own a bike? Do you live in an apartment, flat, or small house? Does your cramped living space mean you have to leave your poor bicycle outside in a back yard or balcony during the harsh winter months? Do you find yourself paying for (an expensive) spring tune-up every single year as a result?

If this sounds like you, then for the very low price of only $60, Charlie's Bike Shop will provide a warm, dry, secure indoor home for your bike during the chilly winter months. Your bike will catch up on some much needed rest, get some reading done, and socialize with other interesting, dynamic bikes!

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!!!

This incredible deal not only provides a warm, dry, secure home for your bike, you'll also receive a FREE SPRING TUNE UP as part of this incredible low price. 

This includes:
- Gears and Brakes adjustments
- Headset and bottom bracket adjustment
- Minor wheel truing
- Full clean-up
- Chain lubrication
- Installation of any necessary parts (come to the shop and we will let you know if your bike needs anything)!

WOW! What a deal!

Call, email, or visit Charlie's Bike Shop (416-546-2200 :: charliesbikeshop@gmail.com :: 242 1/2 Queen Street East) today to book your Winter Bike Storage! 

100% of net proceeds go to support Charlie's FreeWheels, a not-for-profit organization providing opportunities to youth from the Regent Park community. Some restrictions apply, please contact Charlie's Bike Shop for full details.
