Repairs are accomplished while consulting and advising me so I get the best equipment I can afford. Also I get informed about what to expect in the near and long term so I can do preventive maintenance. In particular I have to mention Derek, a person in the service department of machinery row bicycles in Madison Wi. A great diagnostician, advisor and technician. The best in the business as far as I'm concerned.

They were in good shape shaped and worked well to do the ride around lake Monona the team was nice to help size us for the proper bike and get us ready to go. They have helmets available if you need one. Clean restroom. It's also a fun and large Bicycle shop which we enjoyed visiting.

TL;DR packed my wife's bike in under two hours for the cheapest quote in 10 miles…read more Longer unnecessarily detailed review: My wife has been talking about her childhood bike for almost half a decade. It was the one thing she ever had that was hers alone. It came from a local manufacturer in Florida and she cherished that bike. I have spent the last two years trying to con my wife into letting me just get her a similar bike. We live in an incredibly bike friendly city (for the US) in California and we downsized to one car a few years back. We really like to ride for transportation on weekends. For a number of reasons, primarily the bike has sat for literally 30 years in a Wisconsin shed, and it would cost more to ship then it was worth, and I would spend thousands to spend a week restoring an ancient bike. I don't know if you ever had experience with a person with autism who has a fixation but if you do then you know. She could not be reasoned with, cajoled or bribed. I called wheel and sprocket Middleton first. The guy who answered the phone (my apologies I forgot every name the moment I heard it bad habit) explained he could pack it in a box but didn't recommend shipping if I was flying back. He told me I could check it as luggage instead. He told me this would take a couple days as they are busy with the back to school crowd. I thanked him for his time and hung up. I spent the next 20 minutes calling the airline, a shipping company and two competitors. Everything he told me on the phone is true. It is miles cheaper to get it packed and put on luggage than shipping. It does fit within standard luggage dimensions. He was also 50$ cheaper than the other place which didn't suggest it be luggage and instead told me it could be shipped by them. I went with the smart choice and brought it to Wheels and Sprocket. Once there a different guy was super helpful backed everything down to the quote on price and didn't bat an eye at the shape of the bike. I mean when I saw the bolts myself I decided the restoration went from a weekend job to a week job. I told him when we were leaving next week and that we would have to drive back from Milwaukee to get the bike for the airplane. He talked to his mechanic and he said he could have it back today. When I came back to get it a young woman helped me load it in to my car and was super helpful and made it quick and easy. I mean I just got a bike broken down and boxed but it made the person I love the most literally cry when her dream came true. It's just a bike, it's just a bike shop but goddamn sometimes a bunch of people really go out of there way to help it means something. So telling it here is the best I can do. Thank you guys.

The store is located in the historic Madison Train Depot, which sits at the corner of Washington Ave...and you guessed it, the train tracks! Space is gorgeous and has a lot of the original and historic charm left. The main space is a large sprawling open room with floor to ceiling windows flanked by multiple rows of bicycles. There is a smaller space through a step down that features more bikes lining the walls. In addition to the actual bicycles, they offer a wide variety of accessories, tools, kits, tires, tubes, etc...and even a few other outdoor sports for those who go beyond bikes. Service was super friendly. While we were not after a bicycle that day, the staff was very welcoming, helpful and enjoyed chatting up about bicycles...as we had questions! Overall, solid spot in a beautiful location! My pal, which lives in Madison, has since purchased a bicycle from here, so our trip in was well worth it!
