A Facebook update Saturday on the Echo Park Cycles page is hinting at the possible closure of the bicycle repair and sales shop on Echo Park Avenue. “closeout sale 50% off everything must gooo” reads the update, but no specific information has been given as of yet. We’re hoping it’s not true – we’ve gotten a few bike repairs there and would like to keep it local.

We have called the shop and will hopefully hear back soon on the fate of Echo Park Cycles!

UPDATE:

It’s true – EP Cycles is closing its doors. They’ve got a clearance sale going on, open every day except Tuesdays. February 10 will be the final day, and it’s unclear whether or not they’ll relocate or close permanently.

There are rumors of another restaurant being planned for this stretch of Echo Park Avenue – could the closure of Echo Park Cycles be an indication of where it might be located?
