Why Baer Wheels why was this picked
Baer Wheels began when David Baer, after an engineering degree and a bike tour through Vermont, took a part-time job at an Ohio State campus bike shop and then handed out flyers for repairs out of his garage. The storefront followed in 1990, and the shop now counts more than 9,600 bikes serviced. Every repair starts with a free, no-obligation estimate, and an online form schedules drop-offs. Hours at 3510 N High St are 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday.
