The store on Blakely has closed, though there's a different bike shop in its place. Ti-Cycles is still building frames in Portland, OR.

Ti Cycles was recommended to me by a friend who had gotten great service there with some repairs. I took her advice and found she was right, but I also got the feelling that they were extra nice to women. Nothing wrong with that!They fixed something without charging and did a special favor for something else. But now I'm a loyal customer, have spent lots of money there and am still treated well.

Sitting on the side of the Burke-Gilman trail near the University Village (on NE Blakeley), this little shop is a great place for all things cycling. The mechanics are some of the best around, the staff are all serious cyclists themselves who will give you practical advice.
The store specializes in TiCycles -- titanium and steel bikes built by a custom NWframe maker (I have the steel and carbon Hyak and it is dreamy) but also have a number of other bikes for mountain biking, cyclocross, and road racing. If you don't see what you want, they can get it for you. I have ordered bikes, wheels, and other parts without difficulty.
This is not the place to buy your child's first bike, but it is the place to buy their first racing bike...
