The Annex, Bike Newport RI’s fee-for-service repair shop, works from 56 Broadway in Newport next to the organization’s headquarters, with proceeds supporting bicycle advocacy and education. The official service menu explicitly lists e-bike build, e-bike flat fix front, and e-bike flat fix rear, giving e-bike riders clearly priced repair options. Mechanic Ric/Richard is known for resolving multi-issue e-bike repairs and for quick, generous flat-fix help, even assisting riders on a day off. The shop offers free air fills through an outdoor compressor and provides trip-prep checklists for riders planning long rides. Parts availability for repairs and new bikes underpins the shop’s parts and accessories role alongside its service work. Because the shop sits beside Bike Newport’s headquarters, advocacy and repair happen under one roof. Touring riders use the checklists to prepare for long days in the saddle, then top off tires at the free compressor. The Annex is open Mon-Fri 9:30 AM-5:00 PM and closed weekends.
