Personal attention. Superior knowledge and technical skill. Honesty and integrity. Lastly, they all ride, and ride well!

I've been in the shop several times and they ALWAYS take time to help me and anyone that walks in. They are an avid and active bicycling family and are passionate about cycling. It's apparent after only a few seconds in the shop. A friend and I bought our new MTB's there because of the customer service - before buying and its been even better after buying. Maklin Bike Shop is worth the drive to Shafer. We're lucky to have a LBS like this in the metro area.

Three years ago I brought my bike in for a tune up, and I mentioned the front tire had a slow leak…read moreand I asked to have the lining replaced and/or the tire, whichever would take care of it. After I picked it up, I noticed I wasn't charged for it and a week later, the front tire was flat again. I never got around to bringing it back until last week, and just asked to replace the tires and front lining. When I picked up the bike I explained what happened last time and asked if there was a warranty so I wouldn't have the same issue again. The guy at the register said no, there wasn't. I said I understood if there was a puncture or something that I caused, but just for the tires themselves, even a limited warranty? No. I guess I didn't know that was a thing. I wasn't trying to be a jerk, but the guy acted like I was. I dropped it, paid for it, and then he made a personal comment, saying I should go find an Air Conditioner and sit in front of it. It was hot and I walked a half mile there in the sun and I sweat a bit, always have. I felt this comment was unnecessarily confrontational and completely unprofessional. I have no problems with the products and service. I just didn't appreciate the personal comment, is all.
