Eddie's Bicycles and Hockey Equipment is unique, since we are both a full service bike shop and an ice hockey shop. Normally, these two great sports are not found together, but at Eddie's, we find the two sports compliment each other quite well. As the seasons change, the popularity of one sport fades and the other rises. We have been here in State College, PA, conveniently located near the Penn State Campus, helping a wide range of different customers for 50 years now. Whether you're an advanced athlete or a recreational enthusiast, Eddie's is the best shop in the Centre County region for bicycles or hockey equipment!

No.1 Road Bike Roads? Where We're Going We Don't Need Roads...Our best selling road bike is not exactly a road bike, it is a cyclocross bike, or adventure road bike. For the past few years, more of our road bike customers have elected to purchase a cyclocross bike instead of going with an actual road racing bike. Why? Well, for lots of reasons actually. First and foremost, people don't want to be limited to just plain old road riding. Most people looking for a bike with drop bars, also want a bike that can tackle different types of terrain, rather than just riding alongside the road. Cyclocross bikes are not so limited in where they can go. Gravel roads ...

What is 650B MTB? One of the hot new mountain bikes trends is the 650B MTB. Its just another mountain bike wheel size. Bigger than 26" but smaller than a 29er. 650B mountain bike wheels are approx. 27.5" in diameter. It is also commonly referred to as the "tweener" wheel size. A lot of folks jumped on board the 29er wheel size a while back. But some mountain bikers, who may like the idea of a bigger wheel, and understand the clear advantages a bigger wheel brings, may not be totally stoked about the size of the big 29" hoops. 26" MTB is All but DeadMost everyone is done with 26" wheels for mountain biking, but not all.
