They've got kids bikes, trainer wheels, bike baskets which our teenage girls now like, bike seats if your old one has worn out, new tyres and so much more. As for adult bikes they have the full range. This massive store is filled with aisles and aisles of bikes, they are even hanging from the rafters. First class advise can be had here too as you'd expect. I find this New Lynn Bike Barn really friendly and they know their bike stuff. If you need any information about bike trails around Auckland they can help you out. They run a great repair and maintenance service too.

Worth a visit just to look at the bikes. plus the mechanics are top notch and very helpful, even if they send you away saying 'no mate, you don't need it'. Utterly professional. Only issue is the name Rouleur - it always takes me about 5 goes at typing it in to google to get it right :-)

Then as I disassembled the bike with the $75 of tools they sold me (a job they could have done in 5 min for a nominal $20) they acted disgusted as I got the job done in the sidewalk outside their shop. Total "D*cks". Stay away and go to the 95% of bike shops out there that have integrity.

Bute Bikes in Browns Bay is home to some of the finest retro styled two wheelers this side of the North Pole. Each and every one of them is fitted with an electric motor to help you along the way. I took the Cruiser for a spin, and I was surprised how easily I could tackle the hills around Torbay; all the pleasure of cycling without the pain. The bikes look and feel like normal cycles, but they give you a boost when you need it most. All styled with either retro or modern looks, these bikes are a lot of fun, and at under $3000.00 they are expensive, but worth it. I was impressed with the selection, and loved the fact that I didn't need to get a motorcycle license.

I nearly walked out with a considerable dent in my wallet but managed to side step the advances of a clued up shop assistane. If you are serious about your riding then Bikelab has a lot to offer, but if you are looking for a general day to day city run about at a bargain price you should probably look elsewhere. At the time of writing they were having a massive bike sale, with some real bargains to be had.

Bikelab is the closest bike shop to my house, and yet I hardly ever buy my bike stuff from or get…read moremy bike serviced there. That tells you everything. Bikelab is pretty pricey and the few times I've been in there I found some of the staff members to be a little stand offish. They certainly have some really really nice bikes though. Their Cannondale bikes are really pretty and I'll openly admit that I get a bit googly eyed every time I walk past the place. I also like the way they push cycling as a culture, organising group rides and mechanical instruction sessions for those interested. Those kind of things make a good bike shop. I just wish the place was a little more accessible.

I…read morereally liked the bike ride from downtown to Mission Bay and just beyond that till the bike path along the water ends. She said it was 22 kilometers(whatever that is in miles). It was about a 3 hour trip. We made stops along the way. We stopped across from Rangitoto Volcano and we were treated to coffee or ice cream at Movenpick(Swiss ice cream). That was icing on the cake. It definitely wasn't raining, but it was a bit overcast. When the bike path ended along the water, we turned around and went back the same way we came in. The leaders led a small group of 6-8 people at a moderate speed. I was always sure to ride behind the leader because I wanted to go fast and not have to ride behind another group member. Maybe that's obnoxious. Oh well.

Had my 4 year old son with me and the workers were cursing etc in front of him, and they were pretty rude so I decided not to go back. Last week however, I had to get 2 spokes replaced on the rear tyre of my bike so I dropped it off at T. White's because it was close to my work. All good dropping it off and the employee was relatively helpful, but then I received a text that my bike was fixed and the cost would be $60. Insane price for 2 spokes in my opinion. I came to pick up my bike the next day and a different employee was there arguing with another customer that the shop shouldn't have to replace some component that had broken on a bike that she had recently bought. The employee first ignored me and then looked at me in an unfriendly manner as if I shouldn't be in the shop so I had to explain to him that I was there to pick up my bike. I once talked to a Galapagos tortoise at the zoo that was more personable than this guy. After paying the exorbitant price for 2 spokes I asked for the receipt which he handed to me with a nice glob of grease on it. I know this is a bike repair shop but come on, get a rag! Even though my bike is fixed, I cannot recommend this business.

With plenty of staff on…read morehand, every single customer is greeted and helped by sales assistants, and though I'm not usually one to enjoy such in your face service, at Sport Science it was necessary. With so many different shoes available for so many different types of sport and exercise, as well as issues regarding tread, rolling ankles and shin splints, without help it's impossible to know exactly which shoe is best suited to you. The assistants at Sport Science are fantastic. They're helpful, knowledgeable, personable and very friendly. Before you even begin looking at the shoes you are filmed running or walking down a short strip. Staff then analyse the footage and determine your walking/running style and thus which shoe is best suited to you. This process makes you feel as though you really are getting good service and the right equipment - something that's really important when you're spending so much money. If you are really into sports or, if you're like my mum and crazy enough to run marathons, Sport Science will sort you with everything you need from socks and shoes to tights, thermals, water belts and jackets. Bonus: Because Sport Science aren't a brand, they don't try to push you to buy any particular label - it's all based on what best caters to you as an individual.

Whenever I need a new pair of running shoes, I head straight over to Shoe Science in Mount Eden…read more All of the staff are always really well trained, and ensure that you leave the place with shoes that suit your feet the most (and if you go for a run and find out they are not right, then they have a policy that you can even bring them back within 30 days). They are also very well staffed, so when you do get service you get it in a really one-on-one way and for at least 20 minutes. And its always a bit of fun running up and down on the little runway they have with a camera, so you can see if you are pronating or not naturally and then if it still occurs in the shoes they've put you in. You can end up spending up to 300 dollars on a pair, however they do have a handy ambassador club which lets you get discount if you are a returning customer.
