ERIK's story enters its 40th year, as this backyard bike shop business has turned into a Midwestern mainstay. What started as a thirteen-year-old's barn-based passion project back in the late Seventies, ERIK's Bike Shop calls Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois and Kansas home, with over twenty locations serving outdoor enthusiasts across the Midwest.
With spring almost here, it's time to start thinking of long bike rides and outdoor adventures. To promote their various locations and give customers a portable piece of advertising, ERIK's prints up a variety of die cut stickers, with custom shapes featuring the outline of Wisconsin, Minnesota, and even a bike gear chain with the Kansas City skyline.
They also order our custom label products for internal use and product labeling, like you see in this recycling label that they printed on our matte product for a smooth finish.
We've been printing stickers for ERIK's for nearly a decade, and we can't wait to see how their business grows. When Erik started fixing bikes in his parent's barn outside of Milwaukee, he had an idea and a passion. He followed both and created a lasting business that serves thousands of avid cyclists and outdoor adventurers. It's always nice to find a local option when buying gear, and Erik's has a knowledgeable staff and high quality lineup of products for all types of activities. Their blog is packed with helpful tips and great stories. We look forward to tracking ERIK's sticker story as we roll through the years ahead (on a bike from ERIK's, of course!).
