You will also get as much knowledge as you can handle because the owner is very knowledgeable on this craft. Every question was answered and when he performed the job function requested, he spoke about every step. Gives you a feeling of comfort. Pros: 1. Owner knowledge base. You can ask all the questions necessary and Matthew is able to provide an answer. 2. You will feel like this is a personal cycle trainer you're visiting and not a public open space. 3. You can pretty much have everything done at a decent price at this place. 4. Your bike, no matter the condition it comes in, will leave like new. Cons: 1. the place is very cozy. As much as I'd like to bring a gang of my friends to get all tuned up at once, it's best to call ahead and schedule. 1A. This problem is solved as Matthew informed me he has purchased a store and will now have more space to accommodate more people.

I've hired Jafe Cycling for a bike cleaning, (if you're type-A, this is your guy because the attention to detail is very apparent), adjustment to gears and brakes, and overall maintenance.

Had a great experience the first time we bought our kids their bikes here. So when the kids outgrew…read moretheir first bikes, we came back again. This time, we needed helmets too. The rep fitted our kids with their helmets which cost 75 each. I don't know anything about bikes or helmets or fit, so I bought what she said was right. We started using them. About three weeks later, someone points out that my son's helmet is too small, doesn't cover his forehead. I decided to trust Croft on bike doc people since they must know what they are doing. A few days later someone else says the same thing. So I call them...wondering if they can reevaluate. This is an expensive helmet, and my kids safety is paramount. Welp, they said I was a few days outside of their 30 day return/exchange window. Wouldn't budge. Looks like we'll be shopping for a helmet and our bikes elsewhere. Anyway, place doesn't correct mistakes, and too inflexible on such a small thing to keep a return customer happy and safe without charging them more money.

Had the most chill time shopping for skates today with my daughter. I was having a hard time…read morefinding a shop in Md that sold skates and finally got a suggestion for this shop. The skates are affordable, quality skates. They come with a 90 day warranty in case of any defects, and a year of adjustments or care that the shop offers for your skates. The shop has been in this location for 31 years and is run by Kevin (he was professional, hilarious, and very knowledgeable about the skates). We came from Baltimore, so it was a little over an hr drive. The entire process from choosing, trying on, and getting the wheels/brakes adjusted, and paying was about 40 minutes. That included him helping other customers at the same time. A great multitasker for sure! His son was also there helping as well. This shop is located in a small shopping strip. The parking lot was a little tight but definitely doable and it wasn't packed. If you are looking for skates in any size from kids to adults definitely check them out asap!

I wanted to get the handlebars adjusted on my Specialized road bike, but they went above and beyond. They started working on my bike as soon as I walked in. In addition to adjusting the handlebars, they advised me that my seat was too low and adjusted it as well. They took measurements and also gave me tips on how my hands should rest on the handlebars to avoid fatigue. I highly recommend Family Bicycles!!!

My GF planned this bike trip for us from Old Town to Mt. Vernon. It's something we had talked about…read moresince the beginning of the year. I had been less than enthusiastic since our last tandem bike jaunt in DC left me ragged and looking forward to the end. We rented a tandem bike from a known rental in DC; the bike was rickety and took effort even on the completely flat route we were on. My GF found Pedego and opted for the tandem electric bike. This was a 180 degree experience from the other rental company jn DC. The owner was friendly, attentive, enthusiastic and really made us feel welcome. He knows his bikes gave us a quick run down that made us feel comfortable. The bikes are impeccabley maintained and he's thought of everything including helmets, storage pouch, bike lock, flat tire kit etc. He was even extremely well versed on the route to Mt. Vernon. Every pointer he gave us was spot on. We made it to Mt. Vernon and enjoyed food, history, and culture. The way back was fun since the bike did all the work, electric is the way to go for tandem bike long hauls. I plan on coming back to buy some accessories for my own fat tire e-bikes. This was a memorable experience that was easy and affordable.
