History
1970 - The Bike Shop opened in 1970 by Faye and Dennis Saiki at the corner of Cooke and King Streets. The Saikis got into the bike business originally to promote cycling as a means of transportation with the dream of eventually getting more bikes than cars on the road. 1971 - A year later the shop moved to it's present location at 1149 South King Street, which was formerly Dennis' father's old upholstery shop. The shop was very small, less that 900 square feet which also included the office. Repairs were done in back under an open-air tin roof awning. There was an old mango tree by the house in back of the shop, the shady steps of the old house became a favorite gathering spot for hot and sweaty bikies. 1977 - As interest in cycling grew, so did The Bike Shop. In the friendly community of Aiea a 2nd location opened, which was known as The Great Outdoors. As a business resident for 32 years the store has continually offered enthusiatic service and solutions for the Leeward cyclist. Th
