Eastside Cycleworks expands offerings in preparation of 2024-2025 winter

Posted

LEAVENWORTH – Eastside Cycleworks is expanding its service department, retail, and rental options in preparation for the 2024-2025 winter season.

“Despite the lack of cooperation from mother nature last year, we saw a very clear demand for a dedicated ski shop in Leavenworth. Despite our somewhat limited inventory last year, the response from the community was very strong, particularly in the Nordic segment,” said Eastside Cycleworks owner Pat Donahue.

As a result, the ski and bike shop hired a new employee with extensive nordic race experience. It also became a Madshus dealer with a large selection of Nnr boots, skis, and poles.

In addition to increasing nordic options, the shop increased Rossignol alpine ski boot inventory for beginner-intermediate alpine skiers.

“We want to make sure we have gear for everyone. It is really easy to get hyper-focused on our niche, which tends to be backcountry skiing, and forget about the casual skier who just needs some boots or a set of bindings to get out there. We want to be inclusive to all skiers and be able to serve everyone in our community,” said Donahue.

The shop also has a new fleet of rental gear from Rossignol and K2 Snowboards, with premium options for advanced skiers and riders. Additionally, the service department will now offer base repairs.

The retail space added Wells-Lamont gloves, Skida, Giro helmets and goggles, and Blackstrap apparel to its inventory. 

For those looking to ride fat bikes this winter, the shop now has a full fleet of Salsa fat bikes for rent and demo.
