Five Hills Bikes is Moving!

Five Hills Bikes is moving! The new shop is located at 2 North Main St in Waterbury Village (the old Bisbee's Paint location). There's a lot more room here, so we'll have more bikes, accessories, helmets and clothes in addition to our repair and maintenance services. There's plenty of parking around back.

We've been working away on our new shop getting everything set up for the quickly approaching spring. We will be open for service starting Saturday, March 22nd. Look for our grand opening celebrations in early April.
