Bicycle Fit & Size
New for 07/08 for Bike West is our new custom made fit guide
that allows us to fine tune your frame size by "mocking"
up the bicycle's top tube. Takes any guess work or loose in
seam measurements out of the equation.
Encase we don't have your size in stock, we guarantee your
100% satisfaction on frame fit.

Carrollton Nike Park
Preview: This ride's general location is near the town
of Smithfield just north of the James River Bridge. Scenery
includes an attractive background of hardwoods surrounding
a pond. This is an excellent introduction to single-track
riding with minimal ups and downs; bring plenty of bug spray.
It will appeal to experienced riders and intermediate riders
who are ready to take the next step into the world of single-track
but who may not be up to the challenge of the more technical
or steeper sites such as Powhite Park in Richmond.
Also available and open to the public is there bike and skatepark!
Park hours are 8:00 a.m. to dusk. Administrative office hours
are 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. The office
may be reached by calling (757) 357 - 2291.
Nike Park will be opening the gates back up
to all skaters and bikers in the first week in March 2008.
