NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - April 30, 2008) - New Canaan Ski & Sport has decided to
significantly expand their Spring/Summer product offerings. The retailer,
with store locations in New Canaan and Ridgefield, CT, has opted to offer
Jamis bikes as the store's exclusive bike line. Jamis is long known by bike
enthusiasts for producing award-winning, best-of-breed racing, street and
trail bikes at amazingly reasonable prices.
"This makes all the sense in the world for us," noted Pam Alberino,
co-owner of NC S&S. "Jamis and our stores have many of the same core brand
values -- longevity, high quality products, strong reputation among their
respective loyal customer bases, etc. We want every one of our current and
future customers to know that we have great things to offer them year
round, and they should come in for a look at some of the most awesome bikes
on the planet."
The stores will be offering a full line of children's and adult bicycles
and accessories, with special pricing incentives in place throughout the
month of May. Additionally, both stores now offer a full service bike
shop, with services ranging from bike tune-ups for $59.95, to a six-month
free maintenance plan for all new bikes purchased.
