“I bought my 6 yr old his first bike, and while I initially thought I would buy online, I quickly realized I would have to build it, didn't know the right size, etc. I went to Griffin Cycle and they were incredibly helpful, and even held the bike after I purchased it until close to xmas. Perfect experience and reminded me why a local business is better than online for these types of things!”
“This is, without a doubt, an absolutely amazing bike shop! About a month ago, I bought a road bike here, and the staff were incredibly friendly. I had some issues with payment on the day of purchase, but they patiently waited for me and went out of their way to help. They were so warm and supportive, answering all my questions in great detail. Every time I came back for adjustments, they remained just as patient and helped me resolve any issues smoothly. Truly a fantastic experience!”
“Fantastic! I dropped in late on a Friday with a slipping chain on my commuter everything bike and you had me back on the road in a flash with a repaired chain at a very reasonable cost. And you gave me some great advice for keeping me running all weather all seasons. AND you made me feel good about my 14 year old bike which I was starting to sour on. I really appreciate it.”
“I ride my bike often, and recently I noticed a new noise that I couldn’t identify. I brought it into Conte’s, where Bob, the mechanic, immediately began inspecting it. He removed the bottom bracket to track down the issue, and within 24 hours, my bike was ready and riding smoothly again. Huge thanks to Rick and Bob for their outstanding service!”

“Bikenetic is hands down the best local bike shop! I bought my bike here and have been bringing it in for service ever since. The free maintenance they offer for bikes purchased from them is a huge plus, but what really stands out is their incredibly helpful staff. They make both buying and servicing a bike completely worry-free. Highly recommend them!”
“I had Matthew help me dial in a new fit at Conte’s Lexington. He did some precision foot beds.He was extremely informative and thorough on fitting and crafting my footbeds. ( my feet feel like a big comfortable hug now). He fussed about my writing position and my cleat location. I’m talking particular.?I have already recommended his talent to my cycling buddy. And strongly suggest Matt to dial-in your position on your bike, new, or old. He made it easier to go faster, with more confidence. You won’t be disappointed.Thanks Matt!”
“This went great! I visited shop, test-rode a few bikes, placed on-line order a few days later and, 2 weeks later, got an email my bike was ready. I came in, it was all assembled and ready to go. Bike runs fine. Thank you!”
“Excellent friendly knowledgeable service! Replaced my tires while we waited. Max and Marshall provide personalized bike and biking advice, unlike the corporate AI automatons that run some stores…”
“Great bike shop, I brought in my 30 year old Maci. I was deciding whether to get rid of it. Needed lots of work. Reasonable prices, it’s like a new bike! Glad I kept it. When it still needed adjustments they tweaked it no issues!”
“Exceptional service, excellent selection, and the knowledge of the staff makes coming here the best choice in DC. From Scott to Cameron to Emir the team here is the best in DC.”
“The shop deserves 6 stars. If everyone were as passionate and dedicated to their profession as Alex is about his bike shop, then this world would be a better place.”
“Theo was very knowledgeable and helped us pick bikes according to everyone’s ability and riding tendencies. He made lots of recommendations to keep our kids safe. When we came back after my son had a crash, he immediately popped the bike up on a stand and checked it over and made adjustments to make sure it was riding smoothly. We’ll be back!”
“Great staff, great products, honest prices (competitive with internet ones or even better), great in person service. They exactly understood what we needed. We bought a Scott e-mountain bike a couple of months ago: it is great, very light, you can use it with no motor, but then the motor helps you when there is an uphill. BigWheelBike's staff perfectly tuned and adjusted the emtb. Some weeks later, we bought a second one, similar, and we were offered a great deal to upgrade the first one with electronic gear shifter. They perfectly upgraded. You can feel these guys love bikes, and they know exactly what to do for the best, kind, professional service.”

“Eric fixed my son's eBike after a crash severed cables and wrecked the brakes. He was easy to work with to get the bike picked up and dropped off and his work looks excellent (he even did a bit of tuning). I doubt Eric is the cheapest option, but he's no more expensive than the bike shop and he's faster and easier to deal with. I'll use his services again for sure.”
“This place is my go-to and I recommend it to everyone that asks. The shop is trustworthy and honest, and the folks that work there have never been condescending. The prices are reasonable and I appreciate the clear communication on my options for bike work and parts.”
“I've come here twice for repairs, once after a fall, and once after my shifters stopped shifting. The services are affordable, and the staff is kind and talented.”
“Good Vibes Bikes delivered an e-bike and I showed them my old, unused Canondale: they refurbished it! A really good job and more than a fair price! So doubly pleased with the team. Thank you”
“Phil is a star! Helped me out when I was in a snag on the C&O and had a bike for me to rent. Excellent service and I love coffee, so it works out great. This spot may be on the opposite side of DC for me but I'll be back.”
“Fantastic service at this local bike shop. I recently visited this LBS to diagnose and fix an issue with my new bike, which was purchased new elsewhere. They asked a few questions and quickly got to work. Their quick turnaround and helpful suggestions were greatly appreciated. They were friendly and helpful, just what you need when you're trying to solve a mechanical issue. Highly recommended.”
“I had the best experience at Conte’s tonight. I came in to drop my e-bike for service but Sam quickly diagnosed the issue, fixed it on the spot and showed me how to do the simple repair on my own in the future. Excellent customer service!”
“What a neighborhood treasure !!
We just had a fabulous lunch - food and service excellent!
Julio, thank you for the perfect outdoor table and your gracious hospitality.
We highly recommend the beef carpaccio and eggplant Parmesan. Nice wine pour, too!!
Can’t wait to return.
Kris & Chris.”
“Phil, Peter, Sujit and the whole crew here are just phenomenal. I hemmed and hawed over a cargo e-bike for months, and they were so patient with all my questions. Everyone here is highly knowledgeable and very kind.They let me take all the e-bikes out for a spin, multiple times, before helping me decide on an xtracycle RFA. I love it so much!”
“When I first moved over to NW DC I was calling around to shops that would loan me a bike bag for my flight to Miami. The team at silver cycles offered to rent me a bag and pack the bike for me. Since then I've been back a few times and every time I've been met with great service. This is really a neighborhood shop where you feel as though they are invested in your biking experience. I am now a regular customer.”
“I stopped in after I broke a flat spoke midride on a downhill speed bump riding my old tri bike. I stopped in out of necessity after walking a few miles in clipped tribike shoes with old keos. They didn't have the flat spoke for my old wierd 650x25c but they got me riding back to rolling to make the trip back home. Great service and affordable work. They set me right to get the thing back home and still riding well today.”
