Logan and Bob are the best. They are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. They are open at 8:00 AM, take awesome Thursday night rides, explain everything in terms I can understand, and the best part, they offer the best prices in Wicker Park. read more

Awesome location on my ride to work, would always see it but never needed to stop until this morning - I was worried about finding a place open early to fix a flat I got the night before, but these guys were up and at it early. Convenient, friendly, quick, affordable, and I couldn't be happier - convinced me to sign up for Yelp just to leave them some positivity! read more

On this morning's commute I got a flat and was fortuitously close to Let's Roast Cycles. The sign on the door said "Closed" but Logan was kind enough to open the door and assist. I needed a new tire and tube. Logan fixed it in 10 minutes and had me right back on my commute. I was able to make it to work on time. I extend my gratitude to Logan and Let's Roast Cycles for saving my morning! read more

I've been meaning to write these dudes a good review for a couple of weeks now. I pass by this place daily on my way to work. Never had a reason to stop though. But a little while back my chain broke just before I was about to cross 90. Thought I was screwed but these guys fixed my chain real quick and I was goo to go. Chill people, cool store, and quick service. They didn't tell me that I should put brakes on my bike 'for your mom.' Charged me $5 for fixing my chain in less than 10 minutes so I'd call that fair. If you don't like animals though, this place ain't for you. They have a couple of cool ass dogs around and a cat. read more

Came in here to get a badly needed tune-up on my Trek bike that has been beaten up a bit. These guys were extremely fast and did a great job. Fair price, long hours for a bike shop, and friendly service. I will definitely return. 5 stars. read more

Customer Service: 10/10 Product Quality: 10/10 Product Knowledge: 10/10 Overall Experience: 10/10 Hands down the best shop to go to if you are needing to get a great quality bike at an affordable price, but most of all, if you want to feel really solid about your purchase. With so many shops and so many different types of bikes, it can get extremely stressful finding the right bike - everyone at Let's Roast made this a lot easier for me. They patiently explained the different types of bikes and with their insanely vast knowledge they discussed which type of bike they felt would best suit my needs. Besides all of this, the main reason I would recommend Let's Roast is because I didn't' feel the slightest bit of pressure in buying the bike. They didn't push me into buying anything, rather, were only concerned if I felt good when riding. We picked out a bike, sized it up for my height and preferences, took it for a test spin, and bought it when I got back to the shop. Whether you know a lot about bicycles, or don't know much, Let's Roast Cycles is the way to go. http://letsroastcycles.com/ read more

These guys are very nice, very honest. They did an inspection of my bike before i started riding for the season, and didn't charge me. They also told me about community rides they host on Thursday evenings. There are several friendly dogs in the shop. A nice business to have in the neighborhood! read more

Happy that this bike shop is down the street. The service is friendly and honest. I don't mind paying more for things I could get online because I am supporting a great local business - and I hope others feel the same way. I am not very "bike knowledgeable" and I truly appreciate the straightforward help without even the slightest tinge of condescension, which I've experienced at other, larger stores. Looking forward to giving them more of my business. read more

Great service and great work! I recommend this shop over any other shop in the Chicagoland area - they also sell great bikes!

Brought my bike in for a much needed cleaning/tune up and, I swear, it rides better than the day I bought it! Thanks guys!

I used to live super close to Let's Roast and it became my go to bike shop. Now that I live far away i still make the trip out because none of shops near me come close to being as helpful and cool as Let's Roast is. Not only is the gear sweet, the employees are down to earth and are willing to go the extra mile for you. Definitely my favorite bike shop in the city. read more

Went in to find a frame harness-thing for my U-lock (not knowing that they only sell them with the locks themselves) and they hooked me up with one - on the house! Definitely will be paying it forward by coming here for all my future bike needs. Thanks guys! read more

I had been coming to this shop for some time now, for nearly as long as they have been open. They did a great job of taking care of any repairs I needed with a quick turn around time on my previous bike and the prices were very reasonable. I decided that since they seemed very down to earth and like all around good guys, I would purchase my next bike from them. My concerns began when I took my old bike in to get the brake adjusted, which one of their guys did quickly and for cheap. But as I rode my bike home from the shop, I could smell a burning rubber odor and realized, once I got home, that the pads of the brake to my bike were lined up on the front tire, not the front wheel rim where they should be. Even as someone such as myself who isn't particularly advanced at bike repairs knows that is a pretty glaring error. But I decided it was an isolated incident and didn't think much of it. A few weeks later I asked one of their employees for a new bike recommendation and I told them I wanted something that could handle the wear and tear of riding in the city all year round, since that is how I commute to work. They recommended one of the Pure Fix single speed bikes they sell so I went home and decided to do some research on them. I couldn't find any good things to say about the base model of the Pure Fix bikes online, but I did find one good review online from someone who had purchased a Pure Fix Premium model single speed bike, specifically that the chromoly steel frame was worth the price of the bike (about $500). So I decided to go with that, 1) because I wanted to buy a bike from Let's Roast to support their business and 2) because one of their guys implied that the premium model was much better than the base model of the Pure Fix line. So I bought the bike and when I came to pick it up after it had been shipped to Let's Roast and they assembled it about a week later, the guy who sold me the bike told me to ride it for two weeks or so and then bring it back to make sure everything looked ok, which sounded great to me because it indicated that they cared about the products they were selling to their customers. I brought the bike back two weeks later and one of their guys gave it a look to make sure everything was fine and all he needed to do was adjust my brake and I was on my way. I personally hadn't had any issues with the bike up until that point and was enjoying riding it. Two weeks later I noticed that one of the spokes on the front wheel was coming loose, so I planned to take the bike in to get it looked at later that week. The next day a spoke on the rear wheel snapped and I could obviously feel a change in the feel of the rear wheel. When I inspected the wheels more closely, both the front and rear wheel had loose spokes, some so loose that you could easily pull them out by hand. So the next day I took the bike into Let's Roast to get it looked at and told them I had a problem with the wheels because one of the spokes snapped and several others were loose. One of the guys became defensive and I was promptly told "welcome to riding your bike in Chicago." I said, in 7 years of commuting every day by bike to work on several different bikes in Chicago, I had broken a spoke just once and that something seemed off to me about the wheels, since I had only used the bike for four weeks at that point. I was then told "shit happens" and that I didn't need to worry about it since I was under warranty and they would take care of it. I left my bike there while feeling frustrated since they made me feel like I was at fault for these loose/broken spokes. I came back a few days later to pick up the bike and they told me that they tightened the spokes, but that I should understand that the wheel set on my bike was a cheap one and that I should consider upgrading the wheel set once the current one wears down. I said I didn't have a problem with that. They also said that the loose spokes were due to a manufacturer error. I don't doubt that, but it concerns me that no one who assembled the bike or gave it a second look when I brought it in after using for two weeks noticed any issues. About a month later, I got a flat on my way home from work so I decided to stop at the closest bike shop to me at that time, rather than traveling much further to Let's Roast to get it fixed. This shop promptly fixed my flat and asked me about the bike. I told them I bought it about two months ago and they said, "You do know your frame is bent near the rear hub, right?" And I said, actually, no, I didn't know that. They then assumed I had paid about $250 for the bike and I said, no actually I paid twice that. They were very surprised by this and recommended asking for a replacement frame. Needless to say, I think I'm done with Let's Roast. They're not at fault for my purchase choice, but they either have poor attention to detail, or they just don't care very much. read more

Great job and quick service!!! The price is just right.. I got and both my tires fixed before the heavy riding season starts!

These guys rule. So nice, honest, and helpful. Good prices and down to earth staff.

Great staff and quick service! Friendly and pleasant to work with while they fixed our flat. Owner discussed sweeping the streets of debris to try and help the riders! I'll be back for a tune-up/tires in the future. Thanks All! read more

Needed a bike tune up, and Let's Roast did a great job while not charging me the cost of another bike for a basic tune up. My work was done quickly, and the staff took the time to ensure I was completely satisfied with the work they did. I really appreciated the knowledgeable, honest, and ethical staff. They didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need, and they were not condescending about my lack of bicycle related knowledge. Check them out! read more

5 stars does not do this place justice. Incredible service. They go above and beyond for their customers and have helped me numerous times with my bike. Go there and buy everything. Then tell your friends and have them go there and buy everything. read more

My bike recently died and I bought a used bike online. The only thing I know about bikes is how to peddle! Went to Lets Roast ( my second time here) dealt with Dave and he was very helpful. He answered all of my ?s , moved some hardware from my old bike to the new one and recommended a full tune up. Paid a bit over 100 for the work plus some new tubes. The bike is running well and best of all they told me it would take 2-3 days. Received a call 3 hours later that the bike was done. I would highly recommend Lets Roast for any service! read more

I work downtown as a courier and stopped here last week to pick up tubes on my way to work. I told the employee who helped me that I needed three 32c presta tubes, and he rang me up and I was on my way. However, I was working today in a torrential downpour when I got my first flat since. I immediately realized that he had given me schrader valve tubes, rendering them useless to my presta tools and rims. I had to leave work 4 hours early and pumped up my tube several times in the rain to make it back to Let's Roast to exchange the tubes. I explained what happened to one of the two employees that were working. He seemed unsurprised and blamed it on a coworker who wasn't there and went to change my tube for me and set three correct tubes on the counter by the register. While I was waiting, two other employees came into the shop from the back door and one of them offered to ring me up, and I retold my story to him. He spoke to me as if I couldn't have possibly known what I was talking about, and then told me it would be $10, "for their trouble." I told him I wouldn't be paying him and that I could have changed it myself if he was going to charge me after everything I had been through. The employee that had helped me originally came to the register and told him I was all set and not to charge me. I left the shop and got about half a block away before hearing my fender rubbing and stopped to check what was causing it. I immediately realized they'd put my wheel back on almost completely out of the drop out, which, if I had been the ditzy commuter that the man at the register talked to me like I was, I wouldn't have known how to fix the botched job they let me leave their shop with. If we want to talk about "trouble", this shop screwed me over in the middle of a busy, rainy work day, treated me with no respect, tried to make me pay them to fix what they broke, AND sent me out the door with an incredibly dangerous finished product. read more

Awesome bike shop with great,smart, and helpful people.plus they have free stickers. Best place in Chicago if you are looking to upgrade or by a bmx or mountain bike. read more

These guys should be your first choice for bike repairs and maintenance. They're always straightforward with tips and costs/timing, and are willing to help out with minor repairs cheap and fast. Retail selection is pretty limited, at least for non-BMX bikes, but they know their products well and sell bikes they believe in. read more

This shop has the nicest most helpful staff. They genuinely care about customers' needs and they strive to provide the best service possible. I live out of town and have called to get advice about a bicycle. I was really happy to talk to someone at the shop who was knowledgeable and genuinely cared about helping me. I love the guys at Let's Roast! read more

Riding in to work this morning my chain broke in the middle of Division. I found Let's Roast right down the block. They opened promptly at 8:00 am and installed a new chain in less than 5 minutes. Less than $20 including labor out the door. I was back in the saddle at 8:05am. Fantastic service. read more

For the last few weeks I have been having typical Chicago winter issues with my bike and Logan and Bob have been there to help me find my way and teach me to be a better, more informed cyclist. As a novice who wants to work on my bike and keep it running well I can't rave about these guys enough!! They never try to sell me something I don't need or make me feel stupid for not considering what seems obvious. Always helpful and patient with me, this is the BEST bike shop in the city!! read more
