Two minutes from the 5 Star Trail, right by Offit Field, sits Flat Tire Co. Bike Shop, one of Greensburg’s latest small businesses to move into town. Their goal is to get ‘more butts on bikes,’ and to give back to the community through group adult bike rides and kids rides.

Flat Tire Co., which opened in August 2016, saw a need for a bicycle shop in Greensburg that not only offered a range of bikes from the basic to the exotic but where every customer is treated exactly the same no matter if they’re purchasing a $300 or a $10,000 bike.

Ashley Reefer, owner of Flat Tire Co., has worked in the outdoor industry for over 8 years and when it was time to open her own shop, her only thought was that it had to be all about bikes and the Greensburg community.

“I’ve lived in Greensburg for 5 years and there are so many trails and opportunities to bike in the area,” Reefer said. “We wanted to be the place any bike rider of any ability to come to, learn about bicycling, give one a try and get their butt on a bike!”
