Bicycle Showroom-&-Workshop Cafe

Speeding into Velocity, which combines a bicycle showroom-&-workshop with a full-fledged cafe. Nestled inside Ampang’s Challenger Sports Centre, it’s a convenient venue to serve the cyclists who ride the nearby Hulu Langat routes.

Velocity is very spacious, with lots of light streaming in through the windows. Personal touches abound; the furnishing has been thoughtfully selected, with some of the tables hand-built by the owners themselves.
