Bike Gallery

Bike Mechanic

From a one location family shop of the oil-crisis fueled bike-boom of the 1970s to the multi-store, multi-generation Portland-area staple of today, Bike Gallery continues to be a family-owned company that strives to make a sustainable impact on the communities we serve by putting more people on a bike more often.

Bike Gallery was founded by Portland bike legend Bob Graves in 1974 and passed to his son Jay in 1995. Upon announcing his retirement in 2012, Jay hand-picked new owners who would continue the Graves legacy of customer service and dedication to the Portland community. Kelly Aicher, a 16-year Bike Gallery employee, partnered with Mike Olson, a successful bicycle shop owner in San Diego, to purchase the business from Jay. Kelly’s intimate knowledge of the Portland cycling and community Mike’s vast retail experience are a great combination and we look forward to another successful 40 years. Read more

    I get all my maintenance i wont do myself done at the 82nd location. They fixed my bottom bracket issue and instead of charging me for the five minutes of work, they sent me on my way free of charge. They have pointed me in the right direction to have new wheels built. ...

    My husband and I just bought bikes at the 82nd St location. Jason was wonderful. He took the time to answer all of our questions and to perfectly fit our bikes. We will definitely be going back to him for all of our cycling needs.

    I'd been in before and the staff was very helpful and friendly; that did not change when I came in with some emergency "grinding" in my drivetrain. Without going into too much detail, my bike will get me through some more Pedalpalooza before I (inevitably and soon) invest in some new parts, I've new pads in my helmet, and bought a long-overdue rear blinker. ...

    Really awesome service. I came in knowing what I wanted but the bike was to small. They explained all about road bikes and how they are supposed to fit and got me set up in the Lexa 2 with all the gear. Shawn at Beaverton location was so great explaining everything and making sure my bike was perfect before I took it home! Thanks Bike Gallery Beaverton!
