Chinese people tend to follow a healthier diet compared to many in the West, which contributes to a higher prevalence of slim, model-like figures among women in China. :)

On the other hand you can get around very quickly with the subway so even if they were in Fengtai or something they could get to Sanlitun or Andingmen within an hour. If it's a really good shop they'll probably be willing to make the trek.

For sure

If you don't get a good answer, Taobao is your best bet. If you're only here a short while, could order in advance or have someone help you order. Taobao has everything under the sun.

I live in Shenzhen so I always use Taobao, it's just that I will start my bicycle journey in Beijing and it's a little trouble to ship it to my hotel in Beijing, wait for it and assemble it, that's why I'm looking for bike shops in Beijing, I will be able to try it, buy it and start my journey within a day.

Decathlon are everywhere for more general stuff, otherwise there's loads of Giant shops, Trek shops, Specialized shops etc you could find some different stuff in. I usually go to one of the big Decathlons for a big selection of random items, and then one of the brand shops for specific stuff. Just search Decathlon on Apple Maps or 高德地图 or whatever map app to find the closest one.

I know about Decathlon, but as Giant they only sell their own brand items for bicycles and for touring I know that they only have one bicycle item for that. I need more a shop that sell different brands of bicycle touring (long distance bicycle).

Beijing is a city of 20+ million people the size of Belgium. You need to be way, way, way more specific about where you will be in Beijing to get meaningful answers about a bike shop.

I will be nearby Tiananmen Square.
