OMK-title

In our ongoing series of articles which explore the “must-see” places in Ulsan, we head to OMK bikes in Taehwa-dong. This shop has been a long time partner of Ulsan Online and a shop which is dedicated to helping foreigners with their cycling needs. Few bike shops offer the kind of service help that OMK provides to foreigners.

OMK offers high quality bicycles, precision fitting and used bikes as well. While there is a selection of premium bikes that few foreigner can afford, there are also a lot of great deals on used bikes. OMK offers a great buy back policy on their bikes as they understand that foreigners may not want to take their bikes with them. OMK deals with high quality bikes for all levels of riders.

For foreigners, there is a bit of special treatment and I don’t mind that at all. Aside from purchasing your bike back from you when you leave, they also offer other benefits. If you want to take your bike with you, they will help arrange packaging and shipping. This is a big plus as the crew at OMK know exactly how to package your bike to get it home in one piece. Not to mention, 2 years after service for your bike!

OMK also has a standing discount of about 10%-30% off for foreigners. This is quite a good deal if you are looking to buy a more expensive bike. OMK has a lot of top brands like Trek, Cannondale, Specialized and many others. They have a wide selection of Brompton Bikes which are pricey but perfect for small apartments. These are handmade in England and very stylish these days.

Joey and the crew are also great riders and have weekly rides every Sunday morning. However, they are also available for bike tours around the city. This is something that would be a great asset for those looking to get a better feel for the city. I have yet to make it out for a ride with the guys, but don’t be afraid to ask them for more details.

The bottomline is that OMK is a shop for a levels of riders. They have used bikes if you are looking for just something to ride around on as well as brand name bikes and pro bikes that cast more than my car. They are also certified to fit the bikes which is important if you are purchasing a specialized bike.
