I cant think of any more but it wouldn't surprise me if there's a "fixie" shop somewhere there. O I think the Halfords allow test rides from that shop.
Cycle Republic are Halfords bike only stores. There's BlackBeard Cycles at the end of All Saint's Street and I'm pretty sure I've seen another bike shop in Broadmead area but can't remember where. The local Fixie shop was Bristol Dropouts which was on Stokes Croft a few doors up from TDP cycles but they've moved up to Church Road recently.
