Great work, inexpensive, great vibe

by Realm at Citysearch

I went to the 171 Park Ave (at Adelphi) location for repair of a flat tire, general tune up and adjustment to handle bars. They did all this with an absolute minimum of fuss and in very little time for $55. They seemed to really love fixing bikes. I brought a book to read during the repair, because I do not live near the G line and wanted to ride the bike to and from the place. (The tire leak was slow enough to permit this.) They were happy to give extra attention, e.g., volunteering to go outside and check my seat height, angle and position adjustments. Good place.

Dedicated to making it right

by clc718 at Citysearch

I had a really minor problem that nevertheless required a number of visits, through no fault of theirs. There was no money in it for them, but I always felt that the staff (Austin, in particular, but everyone I dealt with) were completely dedicated to getting to a satisfactory solution -- to making sure I got what I needed. Also, no attitude, as I have a completely unglamorous work-a-day bike.

• Pros: Knowledgable, dedicated
• Cons: Distractable
