I am a senior citizen and the Lock on my bike got damaged by someone trying to get the lock off the bike to steal it. The lock held but the keyhole was damaged. I needed to have the lock ground off to replace it. My bike is an electric trike and way too big and heavy to get into the trunk of my car. I called The Bike Doctor and spoke to Kevin. He made a house call the next day, ground off the old lock and brought me choices for a replacement lock. All within 24 hours! Amazing customer focused, courteous service! Will definately turn to them for bike service going forward! read more

Bike Doctor - Bike lock with damaged key hole. - Bikes Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

Poor service but I prefer to blame the time of day (5:20pm) and the fact that they're tired... . Nevertheless the service was extremely below my expectation and they were unenthusiastic to say the least. Since moving to MD from DC I want to find a new bike shop but I guess I'll continue to drive to Conte Bike Shop. By the way, I'd hate to say or blame the obvious Shopping for Pedals and Shoes for my BMC Roadmachine. read more

An enormous help from the gentleman working there! I brought in an old family bike to get the derailer aligned and the brakes adjusted. He was able to spot an issue with my gear shift and got it corrected for a low cost, even with the bike being outdated and parts obsolete. BBC wry friendly and knowledgeable, and I was in and out in less than an hour! read more

Everyone is looked after with that top level service and i appreciate them very much read more

Bike Doctor, Annapolis, Md. Has the best customer service I've seen In some time.

I previously gave Bike Doctor 5 stars due to their service department doing great work. My last visit there would have been my last visit ever if I had not previously had such a good experience. I asked the salesman if they had any chain degreaser and his reply was simply 'nope'. I waiting a moment then asked if they ever carried it. He answered 'if it's not on the shelf, we can't get it'. Seriously? No explanation, just that. It's a bike shop and they can't get chain degreaser? I went to Annapolis Velo asking for it, but they too were out. The difference is that the salesman looked on the computer and told me they have some coming in next week. He then offered to pour me a bit out of their service department's stock if I needed some now. That's service. I may be changing my go-to bike shop read more

I have purchased several smaller items here in the old and new location. It all was fine. This week, however, purchased a Thule bike rake. I called, ordered, they said it would be in Tuesday and Tuesday I got a text and went right over. Matt helped me and he took it out of the box, put it together right there on the floor - never having put one together before - and hooked it into the trailer hitch of my subaru. Excellent customer service (full service). read more

My bike needed a tune up and when I brought it in they also suggested I get a few pieces of the hub replaced as well. Kevin did a great job getting everything fixed up fast. The turn around time was perfect and they even ordered pieces my bike needed replaced. Best prices in town, knowledgeable staff, and rapid service; thanks bike doctor! read more

This Bike Doctor location is nice, small but, nice. The work staff was great, I found the only 3xl helmet in existence (LOL). I really can't give a review on pricing bc my bike really doesn't require professional help. I would assume their prices are reasonable , considering the store was packed(lol). Parking is great, they share a large lot with Trader Joe's, and two others. However... If you are looking for a larger shop. Bike Doctor Waldorf is your spot. read more

Matt and his team are experts in bike craft. They're honest and deliver what's promised in a courteous, professional manner to everyone that comes through the door. read more

Disappointed. Brought my bike in to get a tire fixed. They fixed it & said I need to have my breaks fixed. I said no thanks I just ride around Quite Waters Park. Pick up the bike and the tires fixed. Didn't notice that my back brake was completely broken; which, it wasn't when I dropped it off. Now, my bike is old so I understand if it snapped when fixing the tire. No, big deal, but you should have pointed that out & said hey look at your back break you NEED to fix it. I would have gotten it fixed. Well, I'm going to get it fixed but by another shop. read more

Brought my trek ex7 in for service after not having ridden for a year because of injury. Asked them to go over it and see what needed to be done for it to be in top shape. Was told it needed new cassette and chain ring, just over 100$ with labor. Got the bike back the same day with the work done, however when i took it for a ride it had no power in the rear break and middle front chain ring was broken. Took the bike back in they told me that they check the breaks in the tune up but though they were fine, guess the fact that the back break dident work wasn't something critical to the bike, nor was a second gear. Said they could order the parts that would take another week to come in.... They have no problem selling you a bike for thousands of dollars, but apparently taking in a bike for service and walking out with all critical components working seems to be a problem read more

There are several bike shops near this bike doctor store and you'd be better off going to any one of them. After they sold a family member the wrong size bike ( we were just beginners at the time) we swore we'd never go back. But we needed a new tube on a Sunday when our favorite shop was closed and figured we could just stop it for a quick purchase. Several customers were wandering around clearly looking for something and after a short search we found the tubes behind the 2 salesmen sitting at the counter- one eating ice cream out of the half gallon container and one making fun of different customer names he read off a computer screen After reaching around them to get the tube we politely waited to be rung up- we waited 10 minutes standing right in front of them .at no time did they say just a minute I'll be right with you or anything. we asked to be rung up up but after being ignored we left the items on the counter and told them we will never be back Try any local bike shops close by including Trailwerks or family bike of Crofton or another bike doctor franchise but avoid these guys read more

Totally dissatisfied with customer service on my last visit, I stopped in to pick up a tube and stood at the counter waiting to be served, the store associate was doing something on the register. he never acknowledged that I was standing there in front of him. A 2nd associate came over to the other register picked up his quart of ice cream and started eating ice cream and talking with the 1st associate about possible pronunciation of different customers names in the data base. They were absolutely oblivious to the fact that customers were standing in front of the register waiting to be served. Finally left the merchandise on the counter and said to my wife lets go some where else where they are not to busy eating ice cream to serve check out a customer. No need to go back to this place, read more

This is the placed to buy! Huge store with a great selection of Mountain, Road,BMX, kids, and crossover bikes. Very knowledgeable staff that can answer all Ur ?s. They will size u up for a bike and u can test ride. Very very happy! read more

Went to Bike Doctor last week with a broken gear shift. The broken part was a non-standard size but they were able to find a replacement in stock and install it for a very reasonable price. The following week I was unfortunately still having problems shifting, so I brought my bike in again and they said that the replacement piece had wiggled its way loose. They tied it securely in place, gave it a test run, and I was on my way again in no time at all. I am very happy with their service. They were very polite and both times they took the time to explain to me what had happened and how they were fixing it. I didn't feel like they treated me any worse than any other customer, even though I didn't have a fancy ride and I clearly am not a bike enthusiast. I know that can be a problem at some hoity-toit shops in the area, but that wasn't my experience here at all. Thanks Bike Doctor, and I will definitely be back next time my bike needs attention :) read more

I was in the market to upgrade from a hybrid Jamis after having bought a hybrid Cannondale to use at my sister's in CO. I told Josh at Bike Dr. On West Street what I had in mind and tossed out a few models I'd seen online. He helped me hone in on a bike that precisely met my needs--and didn't try to up-sell me (I pretty much implied I didn't care what it cost--within reason). He recommend 2 options and I ordered 1 of them--it was in and built in less than a week. We went to pick it up, bought a bike rack and he put it on my son's car for us. Honestly. Good advice on bike selection and taking the time to put the bike rack on made me want to patronize this store for bike-related purchases in the future. read more

I just moved to Annapolis for the month and stopped in seeking help to fix my fender, which had become misaligned after a rough ride in the back of a friend's car. Not only did they spend the time to carefully realign the fender by adjusting the stays on each side, they also fixed the broken stop for the stay and applied some wax lube to my chain just in time to protect it from these summer storms! Great customer service from a neighborhood shop. read more

Recently purchased a road bike from them and I am very satisfied with knowledge and service I received. Matthew was patient with my repeated visits, road testing, and numerous questions while I tried to decide on the right bike for me. He helped me understand current bike technology without being a pushy salesmen or trying to sell me more than I wanted or needed. When I finally purchased a bike they did a great fit. read more

Recently visited to get my free bike tune up. Great experience! I expected them to tell me it would take a few weeks due to a backlog. Instead, they had it done the same day! I get free tune ups for life because I purchased my bike from Annapolis Bike Doctor. read more

Professional curteous staff with extremely reasonable prices. Did a great job with a bike fit. Highly recommend.

As the biking craze has caught on Bike Doctor has been there from the start. From early on I have depended on them to keep my bikes in top condition regardless of the problem. The crew at Bike Doctor Annapolis appreciates the old technology as well as everything new and most importantly an improvement. I trust them to keep my oldest bike (40 years old) as well as my newer bikes safe to ride in all conditions. I highly recommend them for providing timely information when purchasing a bike, upgrading an older bike and repairing a bike when necessary. read more

I can't speak to their repairs department, but I recently bought a bike from them and couldn't be happier with the service. I walked in not knowing much (other than that I'm moving into DC and need a bike), and he spent about an hour showing me many options on their floor, as well as others they didn't have in stock but could order through a distributor. I was 50/50 on whether I would get a bike or not and told him that, and he still spent a large amount of time going over the pro's and con's of many bikes, as well as letting me take them out to the parking lot and spend some time riding them. Great experience and would definitely recommend to a friend. read more

Nice folks, good advice, expert mechanics and I have watched them being very attentive to a experienced roadie, and equally attentive to a father with a problem with his son's walmart bike. Special orders only take a day too. read more

We needed accessories for our new Electra from Bike Dr. Sales associate Matt went above and beyond my expectations, going out of his way to special order proper parts in the right color. When they arrived, bike tech David did a wonderful job on the install, going out of his way to make them look great. For excellent sales and service, I recommend BD of Annapolis. read more

This is by far the best bike shop in Annapolis. I have bought two bikes from the local shop and have had an excellent experience both times. The staff are all very knowledgeable, friendly and never pushy. Plus, the store has great deals on a decent selection of bikes and gear. It offers a lifetime warranty on all bikes and free unlimited tune-ups. The shop also hosts group rides on a weekly basis. Overall it is a great locally-owned shop that is worth supporting! read more

Fantastic family run store with very knowledgable staff. Excellent service from friendly people! They are active in giving back to the community, too. read more

I brought my Specialized hybrid bike in for repairs because the front derailleur was not shifting through all the gears. The associate told me I needed a "tune up" for about $80. He said they would adjust the gears and brakes. I took the bike home 10 days later and the problem hadn't changed at all. I brought it back and the same associate tried to suggest that something must have happened to it on my rack on the way home. They then replaced the shifters for an additional $45. When I asked if I had to pay for the "tune up" as that appeared to be irrelevant to the problem, I was told yes because they already adjusted everything. Hmmmm. read more

I bought a bike there last week and the clown with tattoos behind the counter who rang me up was rude as hell. Here's a tip, guy: if someone makes a large purchase like a bike, it's customary to say things like "hello" or "thank you" or "come again." Also, after the sale, don't just leave the receipt on the counter and silently walk away. Don't go into customer service if you don't like people. Besides, I think you are scaring children in the store. read more

My favorite bike shop in town. Not the biggest selection, but they will get what you want if it's not there and they carry the brand. Service is among the best I've had and I've been to all kinds/levels of shops around the country with many years of moving in the military. No snobby attitudes here like you see in some high-end shops. See Kevin in the service department if you have a more complex repair--he's the best. read more

I just bought a bike yesterday...yeah! I had a great experience largely due to the great service I received from Matt and Chris. They were knowledgeable and helpful and I now have a great bike that is just right for me. The icing on the cake was that I ended up spending less than I thought I might have to and there was no pressure to buy "up". My husband needs a new bike in the near future, now we know where we're getting it. Thanks guys!! read more

Don't let the initial impression fool you! These guys are horrible, and I will never set foot in their shop again. If you don't do your own full extensive research on the bike you want. They will take advantage of your ignorance and sell you last year's model at full 2011 prices. Jack, one of their techs, moves too fast and does not pay attention to details and the needs of the customer. Example, I wanted new Hardcase H2 tires. I walked in with the size, and print out of the exact tire I wanted mounted on my wheels. I come back to pick up the wheels and Jack had mounted H4 Hardcase tires instead. Then tried to tell me that there really wasn't a difference between the H2 and the H4, and I should be fine with what he gave me. How can you do that in this day and age when I've already done my full online research and I know the difference between the two and I've already made up my mind. From my experience a LBS is supposed to take care of and educated the consumer, making sure they are happy with their shop experience. Not, take advantage of them like a common "Used Car" salesman. There are too many bike shops in the area to deal with pricks like them. Don't ignore these reviews. I did and thought these people out here with bad experience were few and far between, then it happened to me. Heed our warnings, shop elsewhere. read more

While this store has a lot of bikes and equipment as the previous reviewer said, I have not had the same experience. I find their service to be horrendous and the attitude of the management to be equally poor. I find them to be arrogant and insulting. I have used their service department three times and had pretty much the same experience each time. After buying two bikes for my wife and myself and being assured of prompt efficient service, on each of the three occasions, I have been made to wait 7 - 10 days for minor repairs. The most recent - a broken spoke - I removed the tire from the rim for them. This is a 15 minute repair - they wanted 9 days to perform the work. When I complained they told me they had over 60 bikes ahead of me - I suggested they might benefit from some additional repair people - the manager started counting repair employees and said, "I don't think so!" When I mentioned that when I purchased the $3000 worth of bikes I was promised fast and efficient service , the response was that people who spent way more than that had to wait too. I found that insulting. When I suggested I would not be frequenting the shop anymore, the manager said, " fine." So I'd suggest you may want to purchase your bike and equipment somewhere else unless you are willing to put up with this attitude and wait inordinate amounts of time. I don't know about you, but when my bike doesn't work, I don't get advance notice and I want to get back on it as soon as possible. Ten days is a long time for minor stuff. By the way - Capitol Bike repaired my spoke in less than 15 minutes while I waited. Guess I know where I'll be going from now on. read more
