“I had such a great experience here today. The gentleman who helped me was extremely kind and took his time explaining everything without ever making me feel rushed.
I came in with pretty basic questions about how I could improve my dad’s old bike, and he gave me genuinely helpful advice about what was actually worth upgrading. I ended up getting new tires, and the entire process was incredibly easy and fast. The price was also very reasonable.
What stood out the most was the customer service. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel comfortable, especially for someone who does not know a ton about bikes.
I honestly could not recommend this place more. I left really happy with the experience and will absolutely be coming back whenever I need anything for my bike”
“Robin was great in explaining to me exactly what the potential bike repairs were for and all the options if I wanted to upgrade. The repairs were done in an hour and it looks as good as new. I will definitely come here again!
Edited to add:
I just went to see Robin again about bike that needs a lot of repairs. He was extremely detailed in explaining to me exactly what was wrong and the pros/cons in buying a new bike or repairing the old one. It's such a good feeling to know that I have a reliable neighborhood bike store!”
“I never knew JCBC was even existed until I had a problem with a flat tire on my bike. My experience was just unbelievable. They were attentive helpful and fast. The price was so reasonable I confirmed it three times. This is a super professional and local run business with a great vibe.
I road over with my wife to have her seat adjusted because I was so impressed and Chris the owner remembered me and did it for free. These guys are keepers and to make things even better they just opened a flower shop across the way from the bike store.
You got to check this place out..5 stars at all levels”
“Purchased a rim online early morning and admittedly was in a rush to pick it up. Shorty after opening, I called to ensure the rim was in stock and would be ready for pickup. Despite a busy morning, George picked up the phone and confirmed the item was in stock and would be ready by the time I got there. Great customer service despite me being a pain to check on an item i recently purchased.”
“Highly knowledgeable(!) and exceptionally generous service. I have been seriously riding for over twenty years and I just learned so much from Greg. I purchased a new, replacement saddle after being permitted to try different ones as I sat on an adjustable bike-fit machine. I will definitely make an appt. to have a new fitting with my current road bike.”
“I’m a bicycle station ride or die forever. ?♀️
Our man Mike is always quick and personable, great problem solver - doesn’t overcharge and delivers when he says he will. My favorite repair spot in the neighborhood.
Does my tune ups every years, chopped down my handlebars the way I like, fixed my wonky gear shift, retightens my brakes, just installed a rat trap I couldn’t figure out from Amazon.”
“My husband and I had our bikes services at the end of June. The Flo On Wheels team was very thorough with the tune-up, it was completed timely and reasonably priced. My bike is riding the best it’s been since I got it. Thank you!”
“walked in and Ada helped me right away with my flat. I was far from home and she understood that. I was in and out within 20 minutes and I couldn't be more happy with my experience.”
“I had a malfunctioning battery powered air pump that I purchased last year that stopped working . Your staff filed my warranty and promptly replaced the product for free. You folks really stand behind your products !”
“I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to the entire team at The Cosmic Wheel for the outstanding service they provided. They repaired my scooter with exceptional professionalism, dedication, and care, and the results completely exceeded my expectations.
From the very beginning, both the staff and the owners treated me with kindness, respect, and exceptional attention. It is clear that they truly enjoy what they do and genuinely care about providing high-quality work and ensuring that every customer is completely satisfied.
I am extremely happy that I placed my trust in them. Thank you for returning my scooter in excellent condition and, above all, for making this such a positive experience. It is truly a pleasure to find a business run by honest, responsible people who are deeply committed to their work.
My heartfelt thanks to the owners and this wonderful team! I highly recommend The Cosmic Wheel with complete confidence. They truly deserve five stars—and many more!

“These guys are awesome. Friendly and efficient and everything is pretty reasonably priced. Tried taking my bike to a smaller bike shop closer to my apartment and got kind of screwed, then I brought my bike to Tread and they handled it so professionally.”
“I had a flat tire on the Rockaway boardwalk. John, the service manager, stopped and repaired my flat, charged me nothing. He paused his bike ride with friends to offer me assistance. I am impress & grateful for his generosity. I will now be using this store for all my needs.”
“I have my bike for 3 years and needed some kind of upgrade so instead of buying a new bike I asked the owner Jose for some advise. I rode it today and what a difference it felt. Jose is a very fair guy and very accommodating. so im happy with his service and staff. I would recommend it.”
“Been coming here for years and let me tell you! None of these bike shops will ever compare to Dixon’s customer service, turn around time & sturdiest repairs in NYC. I’m skeptical about most shops, I walk in here and I know I will be taken care of. It’s family runned, black-owned and has the coolest bike facility I’ve ever witnessed. Also the guy will educate you and answer your questions if need be. Top shop, no doubt. Go show them full on love and support.”

“Pedro is spot on and his prices on work are extremely reasonable. On a quick adjustment he doesn't even charge you.
I trust him with work on my trading bike and will be bringing my event bike to him in a few weeks.”
“I have going there since 1969, when I got my new bike for my 12th birthday. They have always bent over backwards for me, even when I had a case of the shorts.
Service is much better than 98pct of bike stores. Go there, and get happy!”
“[see edit on the development of the story below]
Very good selection of high-end, high quality e-bikes and cargo bikes. People seem to know what they do and only carry good stuff. Of course comes with a price but that's pretty normal.
If you buy from them, beware their inventory might be inaccurate. I bought a $4k bike there, I pulled the trigger on that because I was told the bike was in stock locally and I could get it assembled promptly, and, as a very demanded brand, the bike might not stay in stock long.
10 days after, looking forward to pick-up my bike who was supposed to only have to be assembled, I discover it's not there and still need to ship from the maker. Bottom line: wait three more weeks. I would have never pulled the trigger on that purchase that fast honestly...
Who to blame? Officially, the inventory system isat fault. Doesn't matter much honestly, that's just not reliable regardless of where the mistake - be aware of that if you buy on stock info.
What next? Well, I'd hope a commercial gesture as this is really a poor customer experience but mostly, I wait for my bike.
[edit:]
couple days after the bad news, someone from Propel called me to try to find solutions to solve my issue. Offering a discount or a loaner bike (which nobody initially thought about, even not me). I took them on the proposal of a loaner bike of course, as it's really
what mattered to me: to be able to replace 1h of public transportation with my kid in 15' bike ride to go to school and then to work. Thanks guys!
Updated my ranking, picking my loaner bike tomorrow.”
“I had a back flat tire. I found Larry’s Cycle on Google. They fixed it for me in 10 minutes. Very professional!! They are also very kind and honest.The store is beautiful and cleaned have a great selection of bikes and accessories.Highly recommended”
“I had a fantastic experience with Edgar at Trek Bicycle Stuyvesant Town. I brought my bike in with an annoying creak coming from the bottom bracket, and he quickly diagnosed and resolved the issue with precision and care.
On top of that, he tuned my drivetrain to perfection—it’s now running whisper quiet with incredibly clean, sharp gear changes. The bike honestly feels better than it has in a long time.
Edgar clearly takes pride in his work, and it shows in the results. Highly recommend him if you want your bike dialed in right the first time.”
“I got a Pro Fit with Pete today. Very knowledgeable dude, and easy to work with. He explained everything to me in a way I could understand. Got my cleats positioned first, then seat height and lateral position, and we finished with the handle bar and hood position. I shot up to Prospect Park for a few laps when we were done and the ride was night and day different. I felt so locked in and comfortable! Pete really knows what he is doing, and very quickly got me more comfortable than I ever would have by myself. There was no pressure to buy anything either. Highly recommend this service.”
“Love this bike store! Our whole family rides and we have bought 6 bikes from them over many years.The staff is knowledgable, friendly and never tries to up-sell me things I don't need. We have continued to use them for all our repairs and up keep and love them! Bike mechanics are unsung heroes and this team is the best of the best!”
“They spent time up front really figuring out what was going on with my road bike instead of just jumping straight into a fix, which I appreciated. Once they diagnosed the issue, they got the new part installed and had everything running smoothly again. They were also great about keeping me in the loop with updates along the way, so I always knew what was happening. Overall, really solid service and easy to work with.
I've been to a few shops in the area and this is by far the best.”
“Ilya and Kasia have been super helpful in getting my bike fit properly and helping me keep it maintained in top notch fashion. The shop rides are also great, a really friendly group that I enjoy riding with weekly whilst it’s warm enough around prospect park.”
“While they do have great products and generally at a very accessible price/entry point, I have personally seen unacceptable behavior towards minorities and or marginalized communities.
I recommend asking another staff member besides the man who usually mans the front counter. Or don't be afraid to support other local businesses where people are treated fairly and with warmth regardless of how you look.
Again great product but a shame that there are businesses like this in Brooklyn, New York.”
“I did extensive research on the bike I wanted to buy. I was surprised to find out everything the gentleman at the shop told me was accurate to my research. They know their stuff. I walked out with a great bike. I got proper guidance, a well explained tutorial on the functions, and great energy all around from each person working there.
Definitely go here for your next bike.
Special shout-out to Antonio who's the man.”
“Went there to change my brake and rotor, and the service was excellent. Ismael and his coworker can answer any questions you might have. They are very honest, friendly staff and passionate about bikes too. Thank you for your help guys.”
“Great neighborhood shop for all your cycling needs. Owner takes great pride in his craft and treats all customers with respect and care. We have been customers since way back and happy they’ve stayed right here in our community. Only issue which seems to plague this business is the hours can be unpredictable and what is typical is not always reliable.”
“I wish I could give this place 6 stars! George and his wife are amazing people, very knowledgeable, and extremely welcoming!
Every time I've needed any help with my bike post purchase, they've been there and are always quick to fix anything. I would highly recommend buying from here as their attitude and environment is very hard to beat!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Greenpath. My scooter needed new front tire. They performed the task in 2 days and was ready to picked up. Friendly staff. I would highly recommend Greenpath.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If I could give this place 15 stars, I would.
I absolutely love Tony’s Bicycles and the owner. I’ve taken my bike here multiple times for everything — tune-ups, repairs, small fixes — and the experience is consistently excellent.
Compared to the shops I used in Manhattan and Brooklyn (even the UES spots I thought would be “top tier”), Tony’s is faster, more reliable, and they use OEM parts when possible without needing to be asked. They’ll often fix little things for free, like straightening bent handlebars or replacing end caps, just because they care.
What’s even better is you don’t always have to explain what’s wrong — they’ll often spot issues before they become problems. Last summer, Tony warned me that part of my chain was warped. Fast forward a year, my derailleur snapped — exactly what he warned could happen. They replaced it all and had me back on the road in no time.
If you’re ever unhappy with something, just ask to speak to Tony directly. He genuinely wants to make things right.
Also, keep in mind that not everyone there speaks English as a first language. What might sound blunt or rushed is a PROFESSIONAL trying to assure you they have everything under control in their best English.
I’m honestly shocked to see any poor reviews. This is a local gem. I’ll keep coming back again and again.”
