LEARN MORE

The brainchild of Lance Armstrong, Mellow Johnny's Bike Shop opened in 2008 in downtown Austin’s historic warehouse district. From day one we've served as a riders' destination and a place of social gathering. The shop’s urban setting, near the epicenter of Austin’s burgeoning bicycle lane network and adjacent to the Shoal Creek trail is based on our commitment to and belief in cycling as viable transportation, as well as riding for fun and fitness.

In the fall of 2023 the shop moved to its new home at the north end of the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge along the Butler Trail along Lady Bird Lake. This new location is at the very center of the city and brings us even closer to our mission to serve as the city's cycling hub. The look and feel of the new space is different, but the goal remains the same, help others find joy in riding.

To further cycling's growth in Austin we support local groups and initiatives that increase local ridership. Be it Safe Streets Austin's push for new cycling infrastructure or sponsoring Austin’s oldest cycling club Violet Crown, working with like-minded groups that spread the joy of cycling is part of who we are.

We want to be your bike shop. With gear for every type of rider, from kids just getting started to experienced cyclists of all stripes, our entire inventory was curated with one goal: to make you love riding your bike. And our award-winning service department is committed to keeping you rolling—with most repair work done in 24 hours.

From bike purchase to next bike adventure, we'll make sure you have what you need to make the most of every ride.
