Welcome to Chain Reaction, one of Christchurch's outstanding bike shops
We all remember the first time we rode a bike, the wind in our hair, the freedom, the joy! At Chain Reaction, we love riding dirt, road and even BMX. We love riding with our family and friends. We offer new and old riders a place to talk with experienced staff who can help you on your cycling journey.
Since Chain Reaction first opened in 2000, we have helped thousands of cyclists achieve their cycling needs and dreams. We support the biking community through events, trail building, rides, seminars and athlete support. Our friendly, helpful staff all ride, from the commuter, the road rider, trail, downhill and BMX. We all have one thing in common, we love bikes and want to help you enjoy them as much as possible.
Call in and meet us, get some advice and maybe take a bike for a spin. We have exceptional gear to offer and want to help you get the most out of your bike.

We've got some good deals on remaining 2017 bikes and even new 2018 ones. Now's a good time to treat yourself to a good bike.
Some of these bikes are in-store while the some are in-stock with Specialized NZ. Contact us to check the availability of a particular model or size. If we have to order a bike, it usually just takes a few days for us to receive it and build it up.
Every bike we sell comes with a FREE 1st Check at 6 weeks. This check is to make sure that everything is still tight, gears tuned, suspension feeling good, etc. This is just the last step in quality assurance.
