    I'm based in Dublin but I actually travel to Cork in order to see Liam in Cycling pursuits. He's a cyclist and coach himself and what I love is that he researchs equipment and doesn't sell you stuff that you don't need or won't make you faster.

    Douglas Cysles
    North Gate Bridge
    Midleton
    Ballincollig(west end)
    Victoris Cross

    Cahills - Banteer I am not sure if they are still trading.

    No matter where you buy, satisfy yourself that the service and reparir expertise is there. Aftersales service is the key component of buying a road bike.

    what are you looking for? somewhere to buy a bike? gear? get a service? I'd go to Douglas cycles for the good stuff, or Kilgrews for some of the less expensive stuff.

    Also the guy who owns Victoria Cycles his brother has a shop in Carrigaline.

    I have never been but heard it is good.

    If you are really into racing bikes there is a shop in Carrick on Suir which is supposed to be the best in Munster

    Hope this helps
