Welcome to Bikesport!

 

Thanks for stopping by!

We've been here on the web since 1995, but you might not know that we've been your local bike shop here in Houston, TX since 1979. Our goal as a business and a group of people is to help you find the very best in bikes and cycling accessories -- and the very best for YOU. We've been doing this a long time (between the 6 of us, we have over 100 years of experience in the bike business) and take pride in helping find the right equipment for the individual. Not everyone needs the same thing.

We carry an impressive selection of small parts as well as potential upgrades to help you increase your speed. The number of clothing options we offer is remarkable, and we pride ourselves on a great collection of road, mountain, 'cross, and triathlon bikes. No one shop can be all things to all people; but we do the very best job we can at helping you enjoy the sport of cycling, about which we're truly passionate.

So, please come in and see us some time! We have convenient hours and can't wait to meet you.

Today's Tip

Perfect Your Pedaling - An excellent way to become a better pedaler is to practice a shuffle-like pedal action. This resembles the motion used to scrape mud off the bottoms of your shoes. Each time a pedal reaches 3 o'clock, pull straight back (parallel to the ground) with the front foot and push straight forward with the trailing foot. This action feels funny at first but if you work at it a bit, you'll find that it helps a lot, especially on hills. And, after a while you'll pedal smoother than ever because you're able to apply power through more of the stroke. This happens because the new fore-and-aft motion complements the natural up-and-down pedal action.
