Fred Hewett, owner of Full Circle Cycle,<br />

really knows his bicycles. He bought the<br />

location at 2445 S. Hiawassee Road in<br />

2014 when a chain of four stores called<br />

Bike Works sold.<br />

Hewett joined the staff of the first Bike<br />

Works store in Southwest Orlando in<br />

1991. When the third store opened in<br />

1993, he became manager, and soon<br />

he was promoted to general manager<br />

of the chain.<br />

He eventually left to work as a representative<br />

for Specialized Bikes, an<br />

American manufacturer of high performance<br />

bicycles, bicycle components<br />

and related products, and a brand offered<br />

at both Bike Works and Full Circle.<br />

“Specialized Bikes and the other<br />

brand we carry, Giant, are a cut above,”<br />

Hewett said.<br />

When the owners of Bike Works retired,<br />

they sold the first of their stores,<br />

where Hewett originally worked, to<br />

Hewett.<br />

“That’s why I called it Full Circle Cycle,”<br />

Hewett said. “I came back to where I<br />

started.”<br />

Hewett hopes to continue his legacy<br />

business when his teenage children<br />

graduate from college and “learn it’s<br />

better to work for your dad than a<br />

stranger.”<br />

Since he knows both the retail and<br />

wholesale sides of the business, Hewett<br />

is able to “match the bike to the person,”<br />

providing exceptional personal<br />

service. With a mission to help customers<br />
