Special touch for cyclists

A MAJOR bike retailer is to open a store in the Capital.

Evans Cycles will move into a site at Exchange Place in Fountainbridge.

The new store will open on April 2 and stock a comprehensive range of bikes, all of which can be test ridden to “try before you buy”.

Matthew Atkinson, the firm’s regional manager, said: “Our Glasgow store has a strong following and we truly believe we have something exciting to offer Edinburgh’s cyclists.”
