Now located within a small, retail strip that had been a bowling alley in the 1960s, the 80-year-old, family-run business wanted a space that would accommodate its growth and reflect its new brand identity as a Trek concept store.

Tailored to fit the store’s cycling services and products, within the constraints of the 60-year-old building, the design concept peeled back layers to reveal its industrial core. Featuring lighting integrated into the bowstring roof trusses and an exposed fire-rated insulation system, the resulting space is casual and flexible and its openness promotes community use.

“Working with  O|X Studio was one of the best business decisions we’ve made.  The collaboration process was excellent, and the outcome was a beautiful and unique retail space.”  

-Travis Plotner, Owner
