We service all bikes!

Welcome to Black Saddle!

We ask that you please wear a mask when visiting the shop!

Hey! We’d love to see you at Madison’s newest bike shop on the historic northside. We’re in the Lakewood Plaza on the corner of Sherman and Commercial next to Bear & Bottle!

Here's the story

Black Saddle is a bicycle shop. If you come through the door, you are welcome. This is a safe space. Opening Black Saddle has been a two year journey of learning, faking when needed, planning, failing and rebuilding. Ultimately we're here to service your bike with pride - that's our main gig. Any bike, two wheels, three wheels, e-bike, trike and all the like. We also do stock and custom bikes well. All built with care. We're excited to work with you. Come on in, the coffee is on and the music is playing.

Yesterday, @madrat_63 and I cruised up nort(h) to race (virtually) in the Chequamegon 40. Well, after 20 miles on the vast, always changing course, we calculated that we'd get back to the car way too late to be home at a decent hour. The drive is over four hours. Lucky for us we didn't have to take the same path home because there's intersecting single track flowing all the way back to the start. We'll be talking about this one for a long time.34/17 is the perfect gear up there for the single speeding folks.

Molly's new @surlybikes Bridge Club. Molly is a professor and lives in the country where their internet isn't the strongest and now that learning is virtual, Molly needed a bike to commute to a stronger signal! Kick some butt, Teach!

New bike day for Trish! Another @surlybikes Bridge

New bike day for Trish! Another @surlybikes Bridge Club, another happy person on a bike. We've sold quite a few of these to quite a few personalities and we haven't heard a bad review of the Bridge Club and probably won't. Check out www.surlybikes.com for more.

@chumbausa Ti Stella. This world record holding frame is mostly promoted as the multi-terra bikepackers dream frame - as it should - but it's also insanely capable as a mountain bike. It's light, stiff, climbs like mad, and handles xc terrain with ease. The 120mm @rockshox Sid fork and @srammtb AXS dropper help. And guess what?! @industry_nine carbon wheels, @bikethomson and all the @whiteind bits help too. Hell yes it's single speed. All Chumba Ti frames are pre order right now and it ends at the end of the month. Interested? Let's talk.

Chris has been searching for an upgrade from his current bike for some time. Test ride after test ride and still no luck until an extended ride on the @surlybikes Midnight Special moved him to seal the deal with a dozen roses. Ain't love grand? Look for Chris and his camera.... he's good.

Bear down, Rick! We spent a few months trying to find Rick a bike he liked. I think we started the search back in May. The @surlybikes Bridge Club is comfortable and sporty with plenty of space for add ons. After Rick tested it a few times he was sold. Thanks, Rick!
