Evans Cycles

Evans Cycles Limited is a British cycle retailer based in Shirebrook, England. It was opened in Central London by a London cyclist, Frederick Evans, who won an award from Britain's largest cycling club for the best cycling invention of 1925. He left his shop to be run by his manager and joined the Royal Air Force when World War II broke out in 1939. He died in a road accident in 1944 and the shop and the national business that developed from it has had several owners.
