Celebrating their exciting expansion in Wigan, Evans Cycles will be running an opening offer of FREE bike health checks instore. Customers visiting the new store will also have the opportunity to save up to 50% off selected bikes.
The Evans Cycles Wigan store can be located in the Robin Retail Park, towards the west of the town.

Covering 3,956 square feet, the new store will stock nearly 100 bikes covering road, MTB hybrid, electric and kids bikes, from well renowned brands such as Specialized, Cannondale, Trek, Brompton, Raleigh and their own Pinnacle brand. Clothing and accessories are also available from brands such as Castelli, Endura, and Giro. The store will also serve the local community with a fully equipped workshop where customers can get their bikes fixed by one of Evans’ expert mechanics.
Commenting on the opening of the new Wigan store, Matthew Atkinson – Head of Cycling Strategy at Frasers Group, said, “I’m thrilled to announce the opening of our brand new Wigan store. It follows on from our recent opening of the UK’s largest bike shop in Cheetham Hill, Manchester, and continues to highlight our strategy to focus on expanding our bricks and mortar business and grow our offering to better support the rising number of cyclists of all abilities.
We want to ensure we have bikes from the world’s best brands built and ready to ride away on the day, accessible workshops on hand to ensure we keep people riding and quality advice so customers continue to feel confident with their purchases.
