Hello and welcome to Online Bikes Shop. My name is Ian and I'm on a mission to give you easy to understand cycling advice. Online Bikes Shop was established in 2014 with the goal to provide practical actionable advice to our readers. Whatever your skill set or riding experience our reviews and buying tips will always be easy to follow... So many bike sites are over technical and difficult to understand I wanted Online Bikes Shop to be different - useful but readable. You don't need to be a pro rider to read our blog !

My Story. I love cycle touring on mountain bikes.

Now I'm settled with a family I don't get to travel that much but I do live close to some of the best single tracks in New Zealand...

My cycle touring started along time ago on a clunky cheap mountain bike that needed constant repairs it taught me the traps of taking bad advice but also taught me the basics of bike repairs and maintenance.

The aim of our website is to ensure you don't fall into those same traps instead you buy a bike you are proud to own.
