We are outdoor enthusiasts, community members, cyclists and a family of bike lovers here to help you further your passion for pedaling. Smith's Bike Shop opened in 1895 in La Crosse, WI. In 2002, after just over 100 years in business, Smith's moved to it's current location on 7th St. Erik and his signature sideburns began working at Smith's as a bike mechanic in 1996 and remained an employee of Smith's for 20 years.
When we're not at the store, Erik can usually be found up at the Human Powered Trails (HPT) on one of his mountain bikes (unless he's watching Star Wars). He can also be seen tearing up the pump track, on a long road ride, or on his fat bike in the snow. Randi likes to run errands on her e-bike, go for a road ride, or ride her fat bike through the HPT trails.

Visiting LaCrosse
Report
We have the best biking around, from scenic road rides, challenging mountain bike trails, to kid friendly pump tracks and trails. You SHOULD NOT leave your bike on your car overnight. Because not all of the hotels in La Crosse will ask if you have a bike with you, we want you to know who the bicycle friendly hotels are.
Rentals
Report
Stache 7 is a playful 29+ trail hardtail with 3 tires and a fork with 120mm of travel. This mountain bike is easy to balance and a bit more efficient than our fatbike however it isn't ideal for winter riding. Lower your seat when rolling over rocks, roots and logs to keep your balance low and the bike upright.
