Staff
Experienced, Passionate, and Excited That You Ride a Bicycle
You are the next generation, no matter your age. The next generation of passionate cyclists and you need to have somebody to mentor your learning. How do you fix a certain part of your bike and will you be given opportunities to be taught by professionals? Where do the really good rides of the North Shore start and if you do find them what can you expect to see when your there? Should your bike be set up differently for the varying conditions? You can find all the answers to these questions by going no further than the staff of John Henry Bikes.
Information has always been a major concern for the John Henry crew and passion for cycling has driven our employees to make John Henry Bikes a better environment for you. The enthusiasm for cycling prompted us to make The John Henry Difference for you.
The general rule being if you ride more, regardless of bike style or age, you will inspire more people to ride bikes and that can only be good for the world. You can contact us at any time and you will be heard and answered promptly and courteously.
