Drive by the "store" or look it up. It's a single family home with D'angelos pizza on the street level. Guess what they don't serve? Scooters. Buy from one of his competitors who owns a real store, or you will regret it like I do. There is no store in New York City. He parks his truck across the street from a legitimate scooter and bike store and pretends like it's his.but it's just his dream. He's just some guy who bought a bunch of scooters and sells the old ones to suckers so he can buy new ones. Don't be a sucker. Buy things from an actual store. VERIFIED CUSTOMER

What a fun time. Orin is a great tour guide and easy to deal with. We saw more of the park than…read moreanyone i know that has visited Central Park.

TLDR: asked for a simple tire tube replacement, left with damaged carbon rims…read more I usually do my repairs myself, but didn't have any tools today, so I figured a tire tube replacement is a pretty dead simple job that any bike shop can handle. I walked into Enoch's shop last week, and he quoted me $15 and 10 minutes, and I said sure. As the service continued, I became progressively more apprehensive, but was too polite to tell him "Sorry, I don't trust you anymore. Can we stop?" 1. He clamped my titanium bike on the seattube. One should always clamp on the seatpost, so if any crush damage occurs, it would be easily replaceable. Luckily there was no damage here, but he would have crushed a carbon fiber frame. 2. Unluckily for me, I have carbon fiber wheels. He used a steel vise grip to pull the tire off the rim... I've never had to use anything other than plastic tire levers to get my tire off. This caused dent damage on my flawless carbon rim, as you can see in the attached photo (I did not know this damage occurred until after I already left the shop). I do not know if the damage is just cosmetic or structural, and I will need to contact the manufacturer. 3. When he reattached the wheel to the bicycle, he rested the chain not on the cog, but past the cog on the rear axle, then stretched my rear triangle to handle the extra width, then tightened it down (this I also did not realize until after I had left). This is basic, and so obvious. If he had simply turned the pedal at all, he would see that it's not driving the wheel... When I discovered this, I ran home to get my multitool to relieve the tension on my frame and set it properly. Luckily this does not seem to be permanent damage, as the back wheel still seems aligned properly. If I had a carbon frame, he would have snapped it. At the end he said "I'll need to charge you more, $20, because this took a long time and was very hard". So I came in for a tire tube repair, and left with potentially hundreds of dollars in damage (still awaiting manufacturer reply if the rim is unsafe to ride or not). I made a mistake of bringing something nice here, don't make the same mistake yourself.

Stopped by to rent 2 of their standard bikes (trek) for adults.

The guy at the counter seemed quite impatient as my partner and I looked at their pricing and bike types. The form he handed me to sign said that I agreed to 3 other documents that were supposed to be attached. I asked the guy about them and he said he didn't know where they were. He asked another staff about the forms and the other guy didn't know where they were either. The guy at the counter kept looking, seemed frustrated and asked me if I was a lawyer. I felt like I had to justify wanting to see forms that I was legally agreeing to without having seen them. Eventually he found the forms. He didn't rush me to read through it. The guys at the front were busy but quickly got me a smaller bike when I said the one they prepared was too high. They also checked we had bike locks and gave us helmets after we requested them. We were out front for a bit doing that and the guy at the front gave us an extra 20 mins. The bikes were relatively easy to ride. Gears shifted as expected and brakes worked as well. The helmet and straps didn't irritate my skin. I liked that the bikes all came with a zippered pack in the front which is also where the bike lock is stored. The return process was easy. We were able to be in and out, short wait despite the amount of people at the shop. They are 3 blocks away from the park, an okay distance to the walk the bike to and from. ~6 mins each way.

This company is an absolute scam…read more I booked a tour for 3 people for my daughter's 13th birthday. I booked this a month in advance. A week ago I emailed to see if it was possible to add a 4th person. 3 days later, they sent some form via email which I filled out and submitted through their channels. My card still hadn't been charged nor had I received any sort of confirmation the night before the tour. So I thought maybe I did it wrong and submitted it AGAIN. That time I took screen shots and AGAIN I never received any confirmation or email or ANYTHING. Yesterday we arrived at the "meeting point" at 11:58am for a 12pm tour and there was no one there directing or helping anything. By 12:01 I walked up to a guy in a red "TopView" jacket who told me the bus had left already. WE WERE THERE! Why did no one call us? They have all my info, they have the list of people expected to be on this bus. Another gentleman in a "TopView" jacket noticed I was distraught (now I had ruined my daughters 13th birthday and having no backup plan for the rest of our afternoon, I kept her home from school for this "experience") he sent me to an office down some stairs across 5th Ave. no one in there was any help. All the said was they could reschedule me for a 50% fee . But there were only 2 spots left on the 2:30pm bus, we were 4 people so how did that help me? They also told me that the bus departed at 12:03pm which is an absolute LIE. I will be disputing this charge (and I'm sure the two additional person charges are coming soon as well) and I will NEVER use this company again. I emailed "customer service" and all they said was they could rebook me for 40% fee instead of the usual 50%. I will also be warning all my influencer friends NOT to do business with or promote this absolute SCAM of a company.

It was my 73rd birthday celebration and the 8 of us were so excited. My sister Minerva even joined…read moreus with her daughter & granddaughter, even though she was very ill. My niece had to park the car and got back to the bus just as the doors were closing. They wouldn't make an exception and didn't let her in. So right off the atmosphere was sad. The ride was beautiful because New York City at Christmas time is magical. The tea was gross, the pastries and sandwiches were stale. I could have gotten a good laugh about the tacky decor and bad food if I'd seen my sister smile just once this night. This sadness is how I'll remember that birthday because my sister Minerva died three days later. Her sad face because her daughter was left on the street alone until we got back. I don't recommend this tea at all. They're cold and unfeeling, went out of their way to ruin my birthday.

Our experience with Central Park Tours was absolutely 5 stars and worth every penny!…read moreMy 84-yr old mom wanted to visit Central Park. Walking it, we wouldn't see much: Not only is Central Park huge, but it was cold and she walks slowly. Self-guided bike touring wasn't an option. That left us with a horse carriage ride or a Pedicab. FYI, I have since learned that if someone approaches you with a laminated tour guidebook, they are not only permitted by the City, but there are strict regulations regarding their solicitation. There are many Pedicabs available at the south entrance of the park who will approach you: Though with permits, not all are endorsed. Yes, you can save a buck by choosing one, but your experience may be only a trip (no commentary or stops included). Emir caught our attention at Columbus Circle. His cousin Nihat (commonly called "Night") was our Pedicab tourguide. What a fantastic experience! Side note: I've since found/spoken with a manager of Central Park Tours: Nihat "Night" is one of the highest rated tourguides: I suggest you seek him out by name! Emir gave us the "schpeel," explaining options. Horse carriage ride at a lower price (by comparison) would significantly limit what we'd see. Wanting to see more, we opted for a higher-priced, longer tour via Pedicab. Realizing now that we lucked out, I can't tell you how awesome Nihat "Night" was! He was so personable, provided great commentary & photo-ops (including taking pictures of us), and helped my mom in/out for each stop. I absolutely recommend Central Park Tours. FYI, payment is collected upon completion of your tour: 1. To prove that they deliver what's promised (& that it's not a scam, because there are plenty of scam tours), and 2. For you to tip your tourguide appropriately (please consider being generous - this is their livelihood!). I'm confident you'd agree that if you get Nihat "Night," you'll have a similar awesome tour of Central Park! You get what you pay for with Central Park Tours, especially with Nihat!

Bicycles NYC is my go-to shop, and has been for years…read more I bought my bike here several years ago, and since then, they've handled every issue--big or small--with professionalism, kindness, and care. The team is consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. They always go the extra mile--and do it with a smile. What I really appreciate: Quick help for minor issues--often on the spot Thoughtful, pressure-free advice Clear explanations for any repair or recommendation Great selection of bikes, e-bikes, parts, and accessories Fair pricing--usually better than other shops I've tried They've even surprised me with small perks just for being a loyal customer. You don't find that kind of service often. Sure, I've stopped into other bike shops over the years--some are good--but Bicycles NYC stands out. They have it all: expertise, honesty, great inventory, and a genuine commitment to their customers. Highly, highly recommended!
