With Bumblebee Bicycle, Portland gets its 56th bike shop


Bumblebee is Portland’s
newest bike shop!

I came across another new bike shop in Portland yesterday, Bumblebee Bicycle (2331 SW 6th Ave.), just a hop and skip over I-405 from Portland State University. With the opening of Splendid Cycles (1407 SE Belmont) at the end of last month, and Abraham Fixes Bikes a few weeks before that, Bumblebee continues the impressive proliferation of Portland’s bike shops.

In fact, if our list is complete (see it below), I count 55 56 shops in the Portland metro area alone. I don’t know how that compares to other cities, but it seems to me like that’s a lot of bike shops.

What I love about all our shops is that each one seems to have its own distinct flavor. There are just as many bike shops as there are types of people who ride bikes — which is how it should be.

I’ll share more about Bumblebee Bike as soon as I can get over there and check it out. For now, see our full list of Portland bike shops below (separated by quadrant), and please let me know if we’ve left any out:
