  • During our cycling tour of Japan in Osaka in the busy streets of Shinsaibashi, we stumbled across a big bicycle logo with the words "bicycle garage" and some stairs to a mysterious basement. We couldn't resist going inside and to our surprise we found a very nice bike shop.
    Palm Garage is a custom city bike shop in Osaka founded in 1976. They focus on making smart and simple family friendly bicycles.
    Palm Garage Website - palmgarage.com/
    Palm Garage FB - / palmgarage
    The owner inherited the shop from her father and now runs the shop. She was very nice to us during our visit and kindly allowed us to film this video.

    That Pashley bike looks like the Royal Mail postie bikes they used here before they switched to driving out somewhere and then delivering with a cart they push around. I wish they would go back to bikes, especially now with so many e-Cargo bike options to choose from.
    When I was a kid I thought about becoming a postman but the switch to vans was happening around that time so I gave up.

    This video is priceless. I have seen that brake setup in the past which always seemed cool. Shops like these are exactly where we miss it here in the states. Granted in japan and as it use to be in so many Asian countries bike commuting is and was a fact of the Asian lifestyle. this shops bike designs just make so much practical sense for in and close to town commuting. No glitz, no bling and no supper materials, just elegant, practical, durable and effectively practical designs.

    • @TwoWheelCruise

Glad the owner came out to speak to you, as you could see her legs around the corner when you started showing the back wall and the leg disappeared. P.S. The final YT commercial was for “Swytch” out of U.K. I hope they will sponsor u going forward.

    I never expected to see a Pashley much less other "Old English" style bikes being sold there. Perhaps even Rivendell and the like are available there as well. I guess there are those that want to stand out from the crown in Japan just as much as America and England.

    Do you know a good bike shop in Osaka for used bikes? When I've been to Osaka I had the luck to buy one from a local. But I saw a lot of tourist trap rent and buy bike shops, they wanted 40 dollars for an old rusted front wheel from a normal city bike (I was looking for a new front wheel). I'm lolling for something that isn't exceeding like 200dollars/euro so around 32.000yen max.
