We bought Wolff Cycle!

December 10th, 2011

We are proud to announce that we have purchased the legendary Wolff Cycle, located at 4311 Lancaster Ave. Wolff Cycle has been in operation since 1932, making it the oldest operating bicycle shop in Philadelphia. To preserve the legacy of 80 years of continuous operation, we’ve only changed the name slightly; Wolff Cycle has become ‘Wolf Cycles.’ Firehouse Bicycles will continue to serve you at it’s current location at 50th and Baltimore Ave. Our awesome staff will be splitting time between both locations, and Wolf Cycles will offer the same new and used bikes, gear, and services now available at Firehouse. It’s a really neat space and a piece of Philadelphia history.  Come check us out!  WE’RE OPEN NOW.
