New Concept Circles Tailored…

2015/2/20 池山豊繁

We are pleased to announce that following a recent store layout change, the "Tailored" section on the 2nd floor of Circles has been transformed into a brand new space.

Many of you likely chose the bicycle as a means of transportation in the beginning.
Do you still remember that moment from childhood when you took off your training wheels and managed to move the bike forward entirely on your own? I’m sure you remember the thrill of it.

Ever since I learned to ride a bike as a kid, I was so happy that I would spend every day riding around with my neighborhood friends. My range of movement expanded, and it felt as if my world had grown larger.
That hasn’t changed much even now; whenever I go for a ride, I try visiting places I’ve never been to, or traveling to unknown lands to visit friends I’ve met through cycling. Just as I once moved forward under my own power, I continue to expand my world on my own terms.

The longer your relationship with cycling lasts, the more varied the experiences you can have through it.

At Circles, as a bike shop that has truly dedicated itself to bicycles, our job is to properly connect people with their bikes.

Sometimes that happens through mass-produced bikes, and other times through one-of-a-kind handmade pieces where you can see the face of the maker. However, that is not the most important point; what matters most is properly connecting people with the things they need.

Every person has different physical attributes, unique values, ways of feeling, and specific hopes—no two individuals are the same. Bicycles, too, have various characteristics and intended uses depending on the type, as well as highly detailed size ranges. Of course, color and design are also important factors.

We have renewed Circles Tailored to be a space where we can propose the perfect bicycle for each and every one of you.

From full-custom handmade bike builders to semi-custom handmade frames, we will introduce you to what we believe will be the best possible connection for you.

When placing an order, we will take your body measurements—the most important source of information for your bike—and conduct an interview.

During this process, we will not only discuss the type of bike you desire, but also gain a deep understanding of where you usually ride, your riding style, and your personal preferences.
Everything we discuss will be incorporated into the very fabric of your bicycle. You might have questions or uncertainties, but please don't worry. Let's talk as much as we can. And that doesn't have to be limited to just bikes. We hope to get to know each other while relaxing over a cup of coffee. We look forward to seeing you.
