Kirk's Bike Shop was established in 1865 in the same block in downtown Muncie as our current location. The first bikes sold were the "high-wheel" bikes which predate the automobile. Kirk's was for a long time purveyor of Schwinn Bicycles. Bill Boothby in the mid-1970's started a business known as The Outdoor Store which sold Trek Bicycles in addition to canoes and camping gear.
The Outdoor Store later closed and B&B Campus Bikes became the local dealer for Trek bicycles. In 1999, B&B Campus Bike Shop and Kirk's Bike Shop were combined and for a short time known as B&B Kirk's Bike Shop. To coincide with our move back to downtown Muncie in 2003, we adopted the name that has served Delaware and surrounding counties since 1865-Kirk's Bike Shop.

Buyer’s Guide For Choosing The Right Bicycle
Report
If you're buying a bike to ride with a group of friends buy something similar to what they ride. Unless you're super fit, you won't be able to keep up with road bikes if you're on a mountain bike or cruiser. And a road bike can't handle trail riding like a machine made for it. If you enjoyed a 3-speed as a child, you may find this a fun bike again.
Buyer’s Guide To Road Bicycles
Report
You couldn't pick a better time to shop for a new road bike. Today, manufacturers offer more models than ever in a wider variety of price points. And component companies make an exceptional array of top-notch wheels, brakes and shifting systems that operate like never before. For example, it's possible to get 20-speed drivetrains that shift blink quick, and wheelsets so light that pedaling is effortless.
Buyer’s Guide To Basic Bicycle Lights
Report
A lot of people buy bicycles never intending to ride after dark and then sometimes find themselves pedaling home after the sun's gone down. This is dangerous because you're almost invisible to drivers and you can't see hazards that could cause a crash. It's also illegal and you could be ticketed should a cop spot you.
