First off: LOVE that this is a woman-run bicycle shop. I walked in today in need of a couple tubes…read moreand a patch kit. I'd replaced a tube earlier in the day and must have pinched it when reinstalling the tire, because I could hear air escaping when I paused pumping. The woman behind the counter (Margo, I gather from other reviews) was very helpful in giving pointers for replacing the tubes myself. She showed me the larger box that my tubes came out of to demonstrate that even though I asked for 700x32 size, and these said 27x1 1/4, they were the correct size conversion. Her mastiff, Wiggles, really wanted to say hello to me but was blocked by a baby gate. I'll be back here for sure if I ever need any other bike parts or service!

Back to shop, fixed tire and when I asked the price, they said $25, but I mentioned the wall sign says $20 fixed rate. I give the $20 and they argue with me, and someone not involved gets involved and I feel like I'm being attacked. I leave the shop again, and the back tire, just "fixed" is completely flat by the time I got home 5 blocks. I thought the shop was going to be OK, but I cannot recommend it. Plus, I have a completely flat back tire.

WORST BIKE SHOP IN ALL OF NEW YORK! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME HERE!…read more Not only a super janky bike shop but also a heartless and incredibly rude owner. Also don't (even in an emergency) take your bike here. Not for anything. Anyone who had a good experience here is either a "friend" or didn't have any actual work done. Don't waste your time here. This guy doesn't deserve to have a business, let alone YOUR business. Take it to a shop that cares. 0 stars if I could

The person manning the shack carried a standoffish demeanor and wasn't very receptive to questions. We inquired about whether to pay beforehand and late policy and the host was upset to even be asked that question as though we're supposed to inherently know that we're supposed to anticipate how long we're taking the rentals for. So much for enjoying the scenery. To describe the equipment aptly-- it was shit. The mechanisms were intuitive but had poor build quality. The wheels are small, so it requires a large input of energy to at best move at a moderate pace, the driver's side chain stopped at certain intervals, so you couldn't build momentum, and one of the pedals behind the driver was slanted so far that you couldn't even pedal, leaving the ride to 3 people at most. The cart was adorned by Christmas lights but they didn't work.

My older (decade-plus) bike needed work. The twist shifter clicked angrily, and when it displayed…read morefirst gear, it was actually in third gear, and I couldn't reach the highest gears at all, as well as having a very loose back brake. The shop I'd been going to for years had closed up, so I had to head to Bay Ridge Bicycles, which was 20 blocks further away. Tiny storefront place, with bikes for rent chained up outside and a guy sitting on a tall, upturned white bucket, wielding a compresses air hose for anyone who asked. I wasn't sure how to go about talking to someone as the shop was PACKED with bikes. On the floor. Hanging from racks on the walls. Hanging from the ceiling overhead. A bit over a yard to pass between the bike wheels and the counter. One has to flatten out to let a bike pass. After a couple of moments, a man stepped out to ask what I needed. I explained, and he took the bike in, gave me a card and pickup tag, told me to come back the same time the next day. And if it gets done early, they will call. The next morning, I got a call. It's ready to go. At the shop, the bike looked almost new. Breaks felt tight. I happily paid for the work. Then came the test ride and finding out just how much of a neighborhood place this truly is. I took off, happy. But the gear shifter was still off. I could get to all the gears now. But "1" was still third gear. Blank spaces for first and second gear. I figured, yes, it's cosmetic, but... Let's have them take a look at it. They had said to come back if anything was wrong. "Fifteen minutes," I was told. I saw all sorts of folks getting tires filled, kids with a parent, adults decked out in fancy gear, a gent who was buying a bike to go off-road and ride to work in the city. And then the greeter came out--the mechanic needed to show me something. The gear shifter was broken. Period. It would click and show the wrong numbers because something inside had snapped. I could get a new one, 10% off, as part of my tune-up. "Fifteen minutes." That stretched longer. And longer until I went in. They had tried every twist shifter they had in stock, and none worked properly, so he upgraded me to a much nicer thumb shifter setup at the same cost. Cool, I had wondered about that. Presto. After that, I took it out, playing around with the new shifter. Beautiful. Except it wouldn't engage first gear. I'm thinking easy adjustment, and circled the block and came back. "No problem," I hear. But this time, the greeter didn't take the bike in. The mechanic came out and rode it first to one end of the block. Then the next, where he dismounted and started working on the derailer. Frowning, he came back and took the bike back into the shop. All this while a steady stream of what seemed like regulars came to fill their tires and stop into the shop to chat and swap stories. My bike came back not long after, and it shifted perfectly. No annoyance or hint of upset at my repeated returns. Only dedication until my bike worked. This is truly a neighborhood gem, where people honestly give a damn, and everyone who goes in leaves satisfied. Least I did. Cudos.
