Here we have the most Center City bike shop in Philadelphia. At 19th and Chestnut, if you work in…read moreCenter City and want a repair while at work, Breakaway is your best option. The good: Breakaway seems to cater to a wide range of bicyclists, from commuters, to casual riders to enthusiasts. Frequently, I'll see an enthusiast/regular purchasing another expensive part, bike, what have you. However, they treat all types of riders with respect and dispense advice as needed. Maybe a more experienced rider would be offended, but they're just trying to get you on your way safely. For the rest of us, their prices are perhaps a tad on the more expensive side but comparable to major neighborhood bike shops in West, South, Fairmount, etc. Nothing outrageous, in my opinion. They do most repairs quickly and efficiently. They have several staff members available throughout the day and can handle most simple repairs at the same time or same day (depending on busy-ness) and most more major repairs, part ordering excepted, very quickly. I've had wheel truing done within 20 minutes, which when compared to other stores, is incredibly fast. The bad: They're slightly disorganized. I've picked up my bike same day and have been told it "wasn't done yet" even though a) I was told it would be done (I need it to go home) and b) was a pretty quick repair. Eventually the store manager stepped in (because he instructed the repair) and found my bike (repaired). No problem. The attitude problem is noted on other reviews. Like any place, it depends on the person. I've experienced a wide range of folks here, from nice/helpful, to a little off-putting. I think it's difficult for everyone to assess the level of experience relative to the customer/employee and perhaps that comes out in some users experiences. I've always been treated with respect here. I will and have come back.

I called to make sure they were open and could help, and someone answered the phone right away and was very kind and helpful. I walked my bike to the shop, and when I entered, I was greeted warmly and professionally. I disclosed that I really needed to ride my bike, and they understood and told me that they would try to salvage my ride. Thirty minutes later, my bike was ready, and they were once again very kind and helpful with the checkout process. And, they did in fact salvage my ride, for which I am so grateful. During the checkout process, another person with a flat came in. The staff was warm and professional toward this person. I heard someone mention a "community repair." I did not know what that was, but later, I looked up their website and learned more about the community repair fund as well as the ethos and history of the shop. What I read confirmed that these are cool humans doing cool things and supporting their community. I do not live in Fairmount, but because of my experience yesterday, I would definitely consider taking my bike there again. To the humans of Fairmount Bicycle, thank you so much! And, Happy Pride!

Thank you Kayuh Bicycles! You guys saved my life!…read more I didn't realize, but my bike had a flat as I was riding down Girard. I was on my way to an appointment and had to quickly figure out something to get myself where I needed to be. I googled a bike shop and this spot was super close and also still open - score! I walked my bike over and the attendant was super nice and ready to diagnose and fix whatever was going on. I was hoping it wasn't going to take too long and whatever needed to be fixed would be fairly affordable - I was in great luck! Everything took about 20 minutes, so impressed! There's also a full cafe when you walk in, which I didn't partake in, but was definitely tempted to! The cafe worker did offer me some water while I waited though so that was really nice! Def will come back here to check out the cafe, and maybe add on a cupholder to my bike :).

I was able to check-in for a quick tube change and the staff here was excellent. They let me know how long it would take so I was able to hang around the shop for a bit. Service was quick and easy and the shop itself has a ton of bike products, including a wide selection of bikes in case you are in the market for one. Another thing to note is that it is right next to campus making it the most convenient location for all of your biking needs. I only needed one tube change and it was under $20 and is now saving me so much time on my commute to and from campus.

I…read morediscovered them when I moved to NoLibs 8 years ago, and was always able to take my bike in to get whatever I needed. A year ago, I bought an E-bike, and unlike some bike shops that turn up their noses and say they won't work on them (ahem, Keswick Cycle), this shop openly welcomes them in. I had to get my rear wheel trued and tensioned, as I broke a few spokes after hitting a massive Philly pothole, and these guys took great care of it (after I had brought it to another bike shop, where the guy proceeded to rip spokes off of my wheel and said it was unfixable). And their prices are the fairest around. I now live a 45 minute drive from here, and will still come to them for all of my bike needs. Thanks Firth and Wilson!

All this for less than it would have cost to disassemble, package and ship the bike myself. I hope to become a repeat customer and can't wait to use them again. Thank you Firth & Wilson,
