What is customer service to you? In the world of Internet shopping, today I was reminded why local…read morebusinesses at their core are still about customer service. My LBS (local bike shop) David's World Cycle - Carrollwood, has gone above and beyond, resulting in a supporting patron, a happy customer, and someone that will gladly return for future business. So what happened? My wife got a new bike via a promotional program at work, not our LBS. The crew at DWC took us in, despite repetitive return visits they were always patient with us regarding any issue with the bike. Today I got a call from the store manager to find that they had contacted Trek Bikes directly and got my wife a brand new bike. There are more details to go into but in short, they went above and beyond what we expected of them, took initiative, and remembered that taking care of the customer is always good business. I shamefully don't remember everyone's name but THANK YOU! Erik, Matt, Andrew, and crew. Thank you making my wife happy and reminding me that interpersonal relationships make customers for life!

I brought my Trek FX+ 1S to Trek Carrollwood with less than 90 miles on it and under three months…read moreof ownership. The reasons for my visit were a noticeable "thunk" noise from the motor, a spongy feeling in the front brake, and routine service. After inspecting the bike, the technician contacted me and told me the rear brake system had suffered a "catastrophic failure" and that the entire brake system needed to be replaced. I was told this would include new brake levers, hydraulic lines, calipers, and rotors, and that if they serviced the front brake it would likely have the same outcome. I was also told the motor thunk was considered "normal," despite the fact that I own another Trek FX+ 1S that does not make this noise. I was informed that the bike was not safe to ride because of the condition of the brakes. This was surprising because the bike had fewer than 90 miles on it, and the rear brake had been functioning normally when I brought it in. Before authorizing hundreds of dollars' worth of parts, I decided to take the bike home. I purchased a hydraulic brake bleed kit from Amazon and performed a brake bleed myself. The entire process took about five minutes, and the brakes immediately felt normal again. No replacement of levers, calipers, lines, or rotors was necessary. What concerns me most is that when I asked where the alleged catastrophic failure actually was, the technician couldn't identify the specific failed component or explain what had failed. Recommending replacement of an entire hydraulic braking system without being able to identify the failure point did not inspire confidence. Additionally, the technician did not reply back to my text messages when I followed up with questions. I'm disappointed because I expected accurate diagnostics from a Trek dealer, especially on a nearly new bike. Instead, I left feeling that expensive parts replacement was being recommended without sufficient evidence, while my original concern about the motor noise was dismissed as "normal." Based on this experience, I have lost confidence in the service department at this location and will be seeking service elsewhere in the future.

You are not compromising in anyway with this brand. You might pay more for other brands but I don't believe you are getting a better bicycle.

Besides this the local bicycle shop owner/mechanic (Rick at "Fat Rick's Bicycle Emporium") is one of the very best in the business. I feel very fortunate to have him and Giant bicycles for what has become my favorite pastime. Thank you Rick!

Early in June I purchased three bikes and accessories from UBC at almost $3500. One of the bikes…read morehad a flat rear tire every time my wife would go to ride it. I'd fill it up and usually by the next morning the rim was on the ground again. The bike may have had 2-3 miles on it so i took it to UBC 30 minutes away and asked them to have a look. They checked it and told me there were no leaks and then went on to explain to me how bikes lose air pressure. I have been working on bikes as an owner & rider for 45 years, I know the dynamics of air in a bike tire. I told them they didn't look hard enough and after some back and forth with Alec they took it back and replaced the tube. When the old guy from service came out he was ranting about having to replace a good tube for no reason, Alec gave me the bike and I left. Before I even got the bike home and off the carrier it was flat again. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and inflated it again but by morning it was flat. I know it was a new tube because the valve stem was threaded where the original was rubber. Rather than go back and suffer through another argument and down talking like I was a yuppie idiot who doesn't know which end of a screw driver to use, I ordered a new tube. Today I pulled the tube they put in, verified the leak, then actually took 20 seconds to inspect the inside of the rim to find out why it keeps punching holes in tubes and found a huge burr in the rim that penetrated the protective liner and was cutting the tubes. Had UBC taken 20 seconds of their own to look into the problem rather than being convinced the customer didn't know what they were talking about they would have found the problem and been able to fix it correctly. I don't care how long they have been in business but sometimes they should listen to what their customer is saying to them, there are a lot of idiots out there, I'm not one of them. I wanted to find and work with an independent bike dealer but there aren't as many any more. Unfortunately this isn't the one. I'm happy with our bikes but I'll find somewhere else for future needs.

So when I got a flat rear tire on my bike, it seemed like a no-brainer to bring it here. The store was empty when I arrived on a Friday afternoon, and one of the workers took my bike immediately to work on it. He quickly found the wire that had punctured the tire and the tube, replaced it with a new tube, and I was on my way. Until the next day, Saturday, when I had yet another flat rear tire. I brought it back in to the shop, the same guy worked on it, and told me that this flat was caused by the rim pinching it, which sometimes happens when the tape that lines the rim is too old. But the tire itself looked just fine. He put in new tape, and another new tube, and more money later, I was on my way. Flash forward to Sunday, and I'm riding the bike, and in 10 minutes my rear tire is completely flat again. ARGH! This time I brought my bike into a different, highly Yelp rated, well-established bike shop in Odessa, that told me the tape was incorrectly put in (didn't go all the way around) AND showed me the actually wear on my tire that you could see daylight through. Very clearly a new tire was needed. All it would have taken was a little extra thoroughness at Pedal Pro to find the real issue and take care of it, saving me time, money and hassle. So - while I absolutely love to support new local businesses, this one has 3 strikes with me and they are out.
