Best best is to go onto the shop. If you are HARDCORE into mountain biking this is your local spot for Service & high end parts, Onestar had a LOT. Somehow they have parts you can't even get online and at a better price. Shop itself: It's a very small shop and there are party everywhere in kind of an organized disarray lol I just bought parts so I'm only reviewing this aspect. Parts: I was told he had a Carbon Revel Rascal Frame. He actually had a few! I asked about the frame (He was very knowledgeable) I needed a BB, sram cassette and a sram chain. I had to ask because it would have taken me a week to find the parts myself. But he got everything together and he gave me a really fair price. Cool knowledgeable guy with great parts at fair prices! what else do you need to know.

I've had two favorite bike shops over the past decade, and both have shuttered their doors…read more Midwest Cyclery is next in line to be my go-to based on it's convenient midtown location. I went in specifically looking for a U-lock for my commuter bike, and they had lots of options all priced as good as you'd find online. The staff was helpful but not intrusive as I wandered around trying to get my bearings. One reason I'm not quite at five stars is that it's still so new to me; I haven't had them work on any of my bikes, bought any big ticket items, etc. I lightly perused the bike selection which is pretty good, at least for right now in these weird supply-chain times. There's a big parking lot out front (rare for midtown) and it's easy to get to from the Plaza/Brookside/Westport. Recommend giving them a go and looking forward to updating this down the road after a few more visits!

I've had two encounters with Southward in the past year. I won't waste my time with a third. The…read morefirst time there were four people behind the counter eating and although no one else was in the shop, nobody even acknowledged that I was there. Someone finally came who was pretty uninterested in helping me as well. I don't remember what I needed that day, only that their rudeness or aloofness left a strong impression. Today I called because I had a set of tubeless tires that I had set up but I was unable to get the bead on the tire set without a compressor. I called and asked if they could help and they said yes, leave them overnight and for $25 per tire we will do it. I said no thanks because that seemed ridiculous to charge $25 to air up a tire. I even called back five minutes later to clarify that the tubeless tires were already set up, they just needed aired by a compressor. Yes, that's $25 per tire. I managed to get one tire seated with an adapter and the air compressor at Quick Trip but the other one wouldn't seat. I ended up in Olathe and stopped at Eriks bikes, took the wheel in and the mechanic said sure, but if it doesn't seat I'll have to check it in. It took him literally 15 seconds to pop air in the tire. He handed it back, no charge. I made sure to stop at the front counter and thank them and I also bought $45 worth of handlebar tape. I spend hundreds of dollars a year at my local bike shop. I lived in Arizona until last year. what I asked for was not some extravagant, free service. This is something that any local bike shop, and I've lived in several areas of the country, just does. It's literally putting air in a tire. Southward thinks if they have something you need, whatever it is, that you should be able to take you for whatever they would like. Never again.

Kris, the manager at Trek Shawnee, has assembled a great staff of helpful and knowledgeable…read moresalespeople and bike technicians. It's a big store with loads of bikes for trail, gravel or road biking in every price range and the tune-up and repair work they do is top notch. There are bike shops closer to home, but Trek Bicycle Shawnee is worth a little longer drive. Special kudos to Grayson who recently fixed me up with some new carbon wheels and handled the warranty work on some others.

I'm on the hunt for a new bike shop, and Elite Cycling didn't exactly win me over…read more I popped in looking for a seatpost replacement, and the overall vibe and attitude were not the best. They told me I should just fix it, and to their credit, gave me some tips. The thing is, we're moving, selling our house, packing, etc. and I'd rather they just help out with a seatpost or offer to schedule a time for me to have them fix it. To me, it felt dismissive. I then inquired about a new bike, something I've been excited about the past few years and saving up for. I told them my budget for it which is on par for a small car, and they said "We aren't gonna have anything in that range." I was a bit shocked, and they clarified it's more due to Covid disrupting the supply vs demand. I know that's an issue, but again, dismissive to be shot down when I have the cash ready to go for a good new road bike. Overall it felt like they couldn't wait to be rid of me in the five minutes I was there. I got to know the folks are two now defunct bike shops and actually enjoyed going in to them. This one definitely didn't bring it for me like the past ones. I get it, they're in a high dollar area and can afford to get by without the friendly neighborhood shop feel, but it's not for me, and I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

They weren't overly friendly, somewhat "elitist" if you know what I mean. Which is funny since they have no clue who I am or what I've done in the bike world. Hopefully it was just an off day for them, who knows. Place was pretty cluttered.
