Can anyone tell me the best shops for buying bikes for kids in Melbourne?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

There is a really good bike shop just off Chapel St, I think it's High St but if you locate the pet shop on the corner then it's just around there.

There are also some guitar shops in Chapel St as well.

Anything off Chapel St would probably be a lot more expensive to make up for the rent! You should have a local bike shop - you're better off going somewhere nearby where you can get aftersales support. Whereabouts are you located?

I bought my bike from BikeNow in South Melbourne and was pretty pleased with both it and the service there.

For guitars, I would recommend Billy Hyde Music in Blackburn That's where I bought my bass. Again, very happy with both the purchase and the service.

Hope this helps;

Hi all. Thanks for the replies. Bought a guitar today at a local shop in Mornigton. Also heard there is a local bike shop there. Will check it out along with the other suggestions.

Thanks again.
