“We’re mad about bikes” – CYCLING 2000 OPENS NEW SHOWROOM IN BURTON UPON TRENT

Burton based commercial property agents, Rushton Hickman Ltd, has just let a 5,669 SQ FT (526.7 SQ M) two storey retail unit to Cycling 2000.

The property is located on Anglesey Business Park in a parade of retail units.  Other retail occupiers on the site include; The Raw Superstore, Fresh n Save Superstore, Topps Tiles, HiQ Tyre and Exhaust Centre and Bookers Cash and Carry.  This busy development is situated in an established commercial area, in a prominent location and is easily accessible from the town centre of Burton upon Trent and the nearby A38 main arterial route.

Cycling 2000 have retail and cycle repair/service outlets in Burton on Trent and Lichfield. The business is operated as a family run independent bike shop with a focus on providing a high quality friendly service. Their first store in Dallow Street, Burton on Trent was established about 46 years ago as Mellor Cycles and originally occupied the corner shop adjacent to the current location. The business quickly outgrew the small shop and when the ‘Star Inn’ public house came up for sale, the Mellor family saw its potential and snapped it up. It changed ownership in 1983 and changed its name to ‘Cycling 2000’ and quickly built a reputation as a Touring Bike Specialist.

Cycling 2000 proprietor, Dave Green commented: “We are delighted to have secured our new showroom premises at Anglesey Business Park with the help of local commercial agent Rushton Hickman.”

Director of Rushton Hickman Mark Richardson added “It’s good to see local businesses continue to do well. These are very prominent premises with great parking and as such really suit Cycling 2000’s needs. As a very keen cyclist myself I’m pleased to say they have a great showroom that I’m sure will be very popular. All of us at Rushton Hickman wish them the very best.”

We stock a wide range of Road Bikes and Mountain Bikes for both ladies and gents, there are Hybrids and Commuters in stock and even Electric Bikes available. Our selection of quality children’s bikes is the best in the area with a huge range of Frog and Python.”

“Exactly 3 years after opening in Burton, our second shop was opened in Lichfield. For many years the shop in Lichfield was run as Grahams Cycles and once Graham decided to retire we saw the opportunity to bring Cycling 2000 to the people of Lichfield.”
