Aristo Wheelers

Karol Bagh is always packed, and Naiwala is the heart of it if you’re looking for anything with wheels. We are over at Shop No 1850/49 in Gali No 49. It’s a tight squeeze in this lane, especially when we have a lot of stock arriving. Aristo Wheelers is basically where we spend all our time. You’ll usually see us covered in a bit of grease or dust from the tires. We deal with all sorts of people coming in from all over Delhi. The shop is small but we cram a lot into it. Sometimes it feels like there isn’t enough room to breathe, but that’s just Karol Bagh for you. We listen to the same street noises every day, the mechanics shouting and the bikes zooming past. It gets pretty loud. We keep our own pace though. We don’t bother with fancy displays. We just put the stuff where we can find it. If you need something for your vehicle, you probably know this street already. We’ve been through the summer heat and the monsoon rains right here at this counter. It’s a lot of heavy lifting and checking sizes. We talk to the other shopkeepers about how the market is doing while we wait for the next customer. It’s a decent life, just keeping busy and making sure the shop stays open. We don't have a lot of time for nonsense, just work and some quick tea breaks during the day. We just focus on what is right in front of us.
