In a state full of snobby bike shops, this place is a welcome reprieve. I have been here multiple times for multiple types of bikes. Recently shifted from riding dirt jumpers to getting my first full suspension trail bike, and obviously theres a lot to know for full suspension, even more so since I bought used. These guys have been *nothing* but welcoming, explanatory, and honest. It's nice to feel like I don't need to be on guard for parts/services that pad their pockets but are unneeded. If I could leave 6 stars I would, and as far as I'm concerned there isn't a shop in the city that I would rather go to. Thanks guys! read more

Velosoul Cyclery - Shop cat. Absolute g. - Bikes Near Me - Englewood, Colorado

Zach and his crew are the best...MTB, gravel or road. Its refreshing to meet bike enthusiasts who know what they're talking about.

Awesome guys -- nice and patient, very knowledgable. They seem to specialize (no, not that Specialized) in affordable bikes, so absolutely no up-sell from them. Really refreshing. Just a really comfortable shop. Mostly have Jamis and Cannondale bikes. I go to them for all my bike repair needs (and many a question). Great shop. read more

I am so happy I found this bike shop. The owner is so friendly and helpful. I brought my bike in for its yearly tune up. Due to Covid I have a little longer than usual but I feel like I left Blue Thunder in good hands. When she is done she will have new hybrid tires. I will check in and update how she turns out. Plus Yelpers get 10% off with the check in! read more

I'm honestly blown away by the service I received at Velosoul. These are weird times (COVID19) and the bike shop was SLAMMED! I'm talking a line to get in. Despite the madness, Zach took his time in explaining to me exactly what my bike needed and why. He answered all of my questions and somehow got my bike back to me in 24 hours. This will be my go to bike shop, I'm so glad I found them. read more

Velosoul Cyclery - Bikes Near Me - Englewood, Colorado

Went in for a quick tire change and a few small repairs in my bike. These guys were able to fix it up on the spot, get me out the door in the hour, unlike the weeks I'd heard as estimates from other bike shops (corona virus times). I was specifically was looking for locally run and owned bike shops to take my bike too and am so glad I found these guys through Yelp. Super friendly and knowledgable. I'll definitely come back for future bike needs and repairs. read more

I've been a customer for a couple years, so I feel bad not reviewing sooner! This place is great for anyone. You can get service to fix up your beater or you can bring your Pinarello dogma and it wouldn't be weird. Love these guys. read more

Zach & Team are all wonderful. This bike shop Rocks!. I have been using them for years, first when in Wash Park, now in Englewood. They do maintenance on all my bikes from my top-end Tri-Bike, Mountain Bikes, to the kids bikes. I bought my last bike, Jamis Portal C2, from here and it was a no-pressure sale. They truly care about their customer and take care of them educating them on what is needed, making quick repairs if possible if you stop in, to recommending a local trail. Truly top notch. read more

Shady owner who thinks his shit doesn't stink and that neither he nor any of his employees are capable of making a mistake. I brought in a bike to get a tune and some new parts put on. They ended up stripping the lower brake mount on the fork and would not admit their wrong doing, offerd no remedy, and overall did not give a shit that he ruined an $800 DOLLAR FORK. Don't give this place your business. read more

Friendly staff, including the cat! Quick turnaround on repairs and very reasonable prices on service. Matt explains repair options well. Had a new BB/crankset/cassette and chain installed- needed a rear derailleur- brought it bike in and Matt installed it on the spot. Very happy with outcome- like a new bike. Great shop! read more

If you're just looking to make sure your Craigslist bike is functional and safe to ride, then this is not the place for you. I went in to get my brakes fixed and came back with a $120 bill... and I refused a bunch of services. They may have been good suggestions if you're an avid rider and need a high-performing bike, but I'm not that person. I just need it to stop when I brake and go when I pedal... Additionally, the guy quoted me 6 day lead time to get this work done. read more

I have gone to REI for the past 3 years for all my bike needs/tune ups. My boss had been recommending this place for two years so I last week I decided to support local and bring my bike because I had a $20 off coupon for a full tune (normally $80). I wish I would have kept my receipt so I could explain this scam in more detail! I told him my bike had been on my patio for most of the winter - he said I need new grips because they are sticky which I found strange because my roommate's bike sat right next to mine all winter long (same grips) and his were not sticky. He then told me I need to replace the shifter cables, then another thing, and another. I finally left, feeling like I had just been treated like a red headed step child. When I picked up my bike 4 days and $120 later (when I had initially just wanted the $60 tune), I hopped on it and hit the Cherry Creek Trail. The first two miles were smooth. The next two miles, my bike chain had popped off twice - good thing the shifter cable was replaced! Another two miles and my front brake pad starts screeching like D Bo's bike in Friday - good thing they replaced my rear brake pads! After a few kicks I was finally able to get it to stop. I would not recommend taking your bike here. I'm all for recommendations and want to trust the professional who is working on my bike. It's one thing to make recommendations but don't be pushy and say "well if you don't get it done now you're going to be paying an arm and a leg for labor if you need to get it replaced so you should do this this and this right now!" read more

This is such a great operation. We love the new shop in Englewood, knowledgeable staff was so helpful and professional we will be buying our next bike from this shop for sure! read more

I found this bike shop on Yelp so it is worth giving them a five star shout out! Right in the neighborhood and convenient to Wash Park and Platt Park. I emailed them and they told me to come in without appointment! I stopped in on a Saturday morning for tubes and tire installation and I was on my way to Golden within twenty minutes! The guys were friendly, honest, and reasonable in price! I would highly recommend this shop! read more

The guys @ VC know bikes and they love bikes. I have a very old Bridgestone MB-1 that is ~25 years old. I had not fixed anything on the bike since I purchased it and it needed some love. They loved the bike up and it will probably last another 25 years now. This is a great place and I won't go anywhere else for my biking needs. Give them a try. Oh, and they offer a 10% Yelp discount, hello. read more

Stopped in here a week ago to check out some bikes for my husband. The employee working was super nice and very informative. It was just a few minutes until they closed but that didn't stop him from helping me, showing me bikes and answering any questions. The phone range, people came in to pick up bikes...he was the only one working and was able to handle all the chaos before closing. Will definitely be back to support this local bike shop. read more

Very happy with the service I got at Velosoul. Its a small shop but they do it right. They have good bikes for sale with a variety of styles, rather than just all cruisers or road or mountain. But what really makes the place is their head mechanic. The guy went to town on my bike and it look, runs and feels beautiful. Seriously, it had been 4 years and 2,500 miles since my last in store tuneup and after coming here it rides like the day I bought it. Also a big plus is they got to my ride quickly. Other shops were giving me 2 weeks to turn it around. Velosoul did it in 3 days. Very happy. read more

Great service and knowledge! Zach, Mike & Chris make sure that you get the best bang for your buck when buying a new bike. If you live in the Wash Park area you should highly consider Velosoul to manage all of your biking needs. Your bike will break down! Be proactive and keep riding.

A caveat, the bike I took in to Velosoul was a pretty beefy downhill/freeride bike. The brakes were giving me problems and I believe I need to replace the rear derailer arm. Yesterday, I went to the store and asked to pick up my bike. The owner was very polite and apologetic, which I appreciated. Additionally he did not even try to charge me for any sort of "inspection" even though I know my bike took one of his tech's time. My largest complaint is still just a lack of communication between the staff at Velosoul and myself. When someone has custody of something I own valued at over $1000 (at least when I originally purchased it), i expect to hear from them when they tell me they will. I should not be expected to have to call to follow up, especially when Velosoul told me they would call when they were able to get more information about the bike. read more

Took my Specialized Allez in for a tune-up. Quick turnaround, friendly and knowledge staff. Bike looks great. Can't wait to ride tomorrow!

I went in over a weekend in August hoping to purchase a new coaster brake arm. The one I was replacing was totally destroyed and I didn't want to wait on a part being delivered from an online store. I was hoping Velosoul might have some random coaster brakes and one might just be close enough fit to work. The employees informed me that it would be impossible for them to find/order a new coaster brake arm. I asked what a new coaster brake would cost and using fuzzy math, that included telling me that spokes cost $1 a piece, I would spend $80 buying a new wheel and coaster brake. The employees at this bike shop are clearly used to inflating costs to up charge their customers for bicycle repairs. It was mesmerizing how good they were backing up each other's lies. Avoid this shop! I did however find a shop that checked through a box of spare coaster brake parts and found me a match. Total cost: $3.06 including tax. read more

The folks/owners here are extremely kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. I've been here 5 times and it's always been overwhelmingly positive. If you're in the neighborhood, then feel more than free to trust these guys with your two wheeled vehicles. read more

My go-to bike shop for do-it-yourself parts/tools, reliable advice, and services. They have gotten me up and running again by replacing a worn cassette, broken shifter, an old crank, etc. Always prompt. read more

I came in sort of in a rush, was greeted promptly by several workers. Just needed a little tune up on my kidos bike. They were quick to make sure I was taken care of, in a timely fashion and took care of the bike just as I expected at a very reasonable price at that!! I'll definitely be back for more tune ups and anything I need along the way. Definitely a well ran, local and friendly shop!! Highly recommend!! read more

Zach and the team at Velosoul are awesome! They have always taken great care of me but went above and beyond yesterday. I was hit by a car during my ride. Thankfully I was ok but my bike got messed up. By the time I got away from the scene it was 6pm and I knew Velosoul was closed but I decided to swing by just in case. Zach had already locked up and was getting ready to head home but he unlocked the door for me, quickly checked my bike out and took it to give it a more thorough inspection today. This is why I don't go anywhere else! read more

We took our sons Cannondale Lefty bike here, and the staff did a super job. First, we got a good estimate and they weren't trying to upsell us. Second, they gave us a return date and stuck to it. Third, the staff was very helpful and friendly. Great shop! read more

Fantastic!! I brought 2 bikes in for service after moving back to Denver, and they treated them both with great care even though one probably cost 20 times what the other one did. They suggested different and appropriate services for each. Even the high-end one was not outrageously expensive, although I got new tires and several other things. Plus, the best news was that my favorite bike fitter from Bicycle Village in Aurora (Jerry) now works there! Highly recommended, and so happy I found them. read more

Zack was very friendly and helpful. It was nice that he could help me with my biking with my dog in a carrier! I'll continue to go to Velosoul for my future needs :) read more

Great little bike shop in South Denver. They provided service on my mountain bike fork, and now it feels like butter. Great time-frame for service as well. Very pleased! read more

Scammed. I foolishly let Zach know that I didn't know enough about bikes and asked for his help in identifying tune up areas on my recently purchased bike. He said my handlebars were bent and that I needed a new seat. 1) Handlebars were not bent to my eye, bust he insisted that his eye was trained unlike mine, and a"scary accidents" could end up happening if I didn't do it, and that if they were bent at all, they would snap off in peices while going over a crack in the road, etc. I declined. I asked for new handlebar tape and he said, "even with those bent handlebars?" I thought I'd eventually have to retape new bars if they did snap like he said, so I said bought it. He charged me $42. -- Okay, so I get the old handlebars back when I pick up my bike. I inspected closely: they are NOT bent whatsoever. 2)The tape, btw, I found was $10 cheaper at REI. Also there were replacement peices in the tape package, which when I asked for them, I got some major stuck up attitude and was hold "everything was used." 3) the seat, he said would cause me saddle sores because of a little tear which he insisted had poisonous mold in it which would be bad close to "that part" of my body. I'm female. I didn't go for that, because it sounded stupid. Unfortunately, scammed out of 42, and overpriced by another 10 and lost out of my replacement tape. Also, the tune up cost 80 alone. Find better prices and trustworthy, honest service elsewhere. read more

Worst service I've ever experienced. I took my bike here and it came back an absolutely wreck. The owner was super aggressive, rude and did not tailor to my individual needs. read more

Not knowing much about the cycling world is a tricky proposition, especially if you've already been burned once on an expensive purchase and you're trying to get into a new ride. Zach took his gentle glove of professional kindness and guided my girlfriend and I to bike Nirvana: in less than 90 minutes I was riding a brand new Jamis Beatnik. The bike itself is the most fun I've had on two wheels (sorry Hazard boys) and I was impressed by the knowledge and candor with which Zach greets his job. Definitely my local bike guy. (Plus, if you buy here you get all work done for a year and 10% off all accessories! Gnarly deal.) read more

I like this place. I bought an expensive pannier for my husband which burst at the seams after about a year. I took it back and got it replaced; no problem, no fees or pushback. I've also seen both male and female staff which I really value. I've been to cycle shops that treat women terribly; this is not one of them. read more

Just started looking for a commuter bike today and this was the second place I visited with very little research done beforehand. I wanted something simple and cheap, but nothing from the first place felt right and neither did the higher priced ones. After entering Velosoul, I stated my need and without hesitation Zach, the owner, said he had the perfect bike. I'm not sure if it was because the suggested bike's name is "Commuter 3" or his experience. After talking some more I could tell it was from experience. You quickly find out that Zach lives and breathes bikes. The bike just felt right. It was a little more than originally planned but all the upgrades I actually needed or wanted. Janis makes great bikes and you can find a lot of them here. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Took the families Yeti bikes in for some repairs and attention. The owner took care of the bikes right away. There were other customers coming in continuously but he took care of all of us. Great shop! read more

Best bike shop in Denver! Zach is very knowledgeable and and a great guy. These guy know what they are doing! Super reasonable prices, great product selection and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Came in after my bike was stolen and he got me completely fitted with all new bike, shoes, pedals, and lights. Amazing value for everything i got! I would recommend this bike shop for new bike purchases, bike gear, and repairs. Thanks again for the awesome service! read more

Tucked away on the end of Pearl in Wash Park, next to the Pub on Pearl and across from Whole Foods, lies a tiny little treasure of a bike shop. This place is run by people who ride, love bikes, love talking about bikes, love working on bikes...well, you get the idea. They are not snobbish, or over the top fitness jerks that look down on other cyclist...they are real folks, just trying to get people to ride. I love this place. I've bought accessories here, but I have yet to buy a bike...and if my wife wasn't with me, I would have 3 of theirs by now! If you need almost anything from a commuter/get around town bike to something more high end, this is a great place to go! They also have some bikes I've never seen anyplace else, so they have a good variety. If you need a new bike, or bike related items, check them out! read more

The employees here always take great care of me and my bike. They know that I am on a budget and don't try to upsell, but still offer great products and service. Thanks to them, my bike rides like a dream! read more

Recommended by my roommates. This will be my new local bike go-to. Got a friendly greeting, a great estimate, quick turnaround, and even offered a cup of coffee with some good tunes in the background. To top it off, I had two other people rave about them when I said I'd had a good experience. Commuting to work the next day was like riding a brand new bike. read more

Without a doubt, the best bike shop I've ever been to. The staff is friendly, extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Good selection and very reasonable prices. Nobody there carries the normal "I work at a bike shop and am better than you because of it" vibe, which is a huge plus as a first time bike buyer. Were extremely happy to just switch out my pedals after the original ones shredded in a matter of weeks without question. Thank you Velosoul! I will continue to frequent your shop, even though I no longer live in Wash Park! read more
