We really do care

Mount Airy Bicycles has been in business for over 40 years. The founders, Larry Black and Linda Black, met in the University of Maryland in 1974 during a bicycle class. Larry was a teacher and Linda was a student there. They recognized the need for a real bike shop in College Park and thought of opening one. This led to the foundation of College Park Bicycle in 1979. Later on in the year 1991, they moved to Mount Airy. Their customers across Mount Airy, Frederick, Western Maryland, and Pennsylvania soon learned about this transition. To save their customers the long travel, they established themselves in Mount Airy as Mount Airy Bicycles.

Our Specialty

 

What we don’t have we can usually get, make, or modify to suit our customers’ requirements. We love the challenges and opportunities of finding the obscure, providing special fits, and fixing and modifying things on which others have given up. We will be glad to handle any mail order and can ship our products anywhere. From a spring for your antique brake to a four-seat bike for a parade on the West Coast, you can count on us!

Please arrive early enough to allow ample time for your test ride. Call or email if you need any special attention with late arrival.
