It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

This isn't cycling related, per say, but we at Oasis Bike Works all LOVE this show so that is a good enough reason to post this. I scoured the internet for a clip from the most recent season of the gang getting into trouble with a cyclist but although I couldn't find that specific clip, always the optimist, I found a suitable replacement to share with you guys.


If you aren't familiar with this show NOW is the time to get into it. You are missing out big time not having it in your life.

Beacon House Giveaway

Over the weekend, Oasis Bike Works was able to give 40 lucky kids brand new Kona bikes courtesy of the Beacon House. The Beacon House is an organization focusing on the neighborhood Edgewood Terrace in Washington, D.C., dedicated to helping at-risk children and their families through education, cultural, recreational and athletic programs. Oasis Bike Works was happy to be apart of their program and be able to award kids a new bike. Below are a few pictures from the event!

Chain-L No5



 So, while browsing Prolly Is Not Probably I came across this great picture and product. It is a "high performance chain lube" from a company located in New England. So if you're feeling classy grab yourself a bottle.

Weekend

Hope everyone had a killer weekend. Oasis certainly did, at the Fall Festival and the Sea Gull Century! Here are just a few pictures from the ride and the festival. You can see the rest on our Facebook page. Also, check out the stats courtesy of Jan's garmin.







 

BikeGlow

We are officially one of the coolest bike shops around (THE coolest in Fairfax no doubt) now that we carry the BikeGlow safety lights! These lights are really amazing. A 10ft tube that uses electroluminescent technology to light up your bike. Wrap it around your frame and get ready for heads to turn.

Knog N.E.R.D



If you aren't familiar with the name Knog you should be. They're a company out of Australia making lights, computers, apparel and other accesories. They have an awesome aesthetic and great design for their lights and computers (which we carry!!) The N.E.R.D computer they make is one of the coolest cycling computers I've seen. It comes in a 9-function and 12-function and in a variety of colors. Like their lights, the computer mounts using their silicon tension fit system so you don't have to use a single tool and you can easily switch it between bikes AND change position from your handlebars to your stem by popping the face out and reorienting it. The computer itself is a button, allowing you to easily manuever through the different functions while enjoying the rolling display of numbers.


Come in today and even though they are incredibly easy to install we can assist you in any way necessary!
