A new life for an iconic location
The store isn’t starting from scratch. For 25 years, the address hosted DJ Cycles, a well-known name among mountain bike enthusiasts. Today, Routes&Roads takes over, evolving its positioning towards new cycling practices, while maintaining a strong link with its off-road heritage through a selection of mountain bikes.
At the origin of the project, Anton Vinogradov, a cycling tourism and adventure enthusiast, aims to create more than just a point of sale: a unifying place for an entire community.
A place designed for adventure enthusiasts
Routes&Roads stands out with a comprehensive approach. The store combines:
- A curated selection of gravel bikes, mountain bikes, and electric bikes
- A wide choice of bikepacking equipment
- A repair workshop run by specialized technicians
- A short-term rental service
- A coffee area for passing cyclists
Designed as a true living space, the venue will also host events, bike rides, and conferences, strengthening its role as a hub for the Parisian cycling community.
A technical and specialized offering
In terms of equipment, the brand boasts one of the most comprehensive bikepacking offerings in the region, with renowned brands such as Apidura, Ortlieb, and Restrap. Bags, tires, components, or apparel: each product is selected to meet the demands of long-distance travel and challenging terrains.
The store also offers bikes from recognized brands such as Orbea, Kona, Sunn, and Moustache, as well as an accessible range offering good value for money. Cyclists can benefit from personalized support for choosing and assembling their bike.
A stop on the Way of St. James
Located on the route of the Way of St. James, Routes&Roads also caters to long-distance travelers. Pilgrims can take a break there, chat with enthusiasts, and even get a stamp for their Credencial, marking their passage.
Expertise accessible to all
