The owner is pleasant and knowledgeable. While disappointed that I wasn't notified when the work on my bike was done, all in all this was a good experience. Feels good to support a small/local shop.

Got my bike serviced there recently. He said it’d take a week and the service was complete in time. He also sells bikes. They all look good. Some are used, which is nice. He has other bike accessories for sale as well. A staple in the Edgewater community!

Got my bike tuned up there and they did a nice job. The owner is very pleasant and knowledgeable. This old school shop is indeed a neighborhood landmark as another reviewer noted. Very cool place, and I hope they stay in business for as long as possible.
