“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.”
“This bike shop is amazing. We called for them to build a bicycle we purchased online. They took us in the same day and had the bike built, tuned, and ready for pickup the next morning! They treated us like family, made sure we understood all aspects of the new bike, and were extremely welcoming and knowledgeable.
We bought some accessories for the bike and they mounted everything we bought from racks to bells to water bottle holders! They have a full stock of clothing, bicycle accessories, bells, tools, replacement tires, and a wide selection of bicycles for purchase, from starter to high end. We instantly became life long customers! This family owned bike shop really cares about their customers. Extra points for having an adorable doggy!”
“Amazing shop! I ordered the Wahoo bundle online and was notified that the v2 had some problems so I was upgraded to the v3. I did have to wait a bit longer than I initially expected, but the package arrived quickly when it shipped. Will definitely stop by if I'm ever in NY.”
“Quinn was an absolute legend. Thorough, helpful, informative. Felt like he balanced needed replacements/services with suggested improvements/products well without feeling like he was upselling or pushing an agenda. Great experience and bike is now riding like new. Also helped me with a couple bike fit items and was very patient and again helpful. Will be back.”
“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.”
“Bicycle Roots is one of those special shops where they aren’t interested in shallow transactional exchanges but instead invest themselves in building a deep relationship with you and your experience riding your bicycle. I’ve worked with the shop on two custom builds: my beloved Ritchey Outback gravel bike and my sturdy Surly Long Haul Trucker. In both cases I was struck not only by the quality and meticulousness of the craft they poured into the build, but also by the patient communication they put into making sure I understood every key decision they were making, giving me context to help me steer things in a different direction when I was confused, and helping me have peace of mind that the choices we landed on were choices that would serve me for years of seeking joy on my bike. This kind of deep personal involvement, in which the mechanics are not only knowledgeable, but eager to share their knowledge with you in a generous and empowering way is all too rare in bike shops. It takes a level of humility and kindness one is lucky to come across in one’s friends, not to mention a commercial relationship. I feel lucky to count the staff at Bicycle Roots as my friends, and I hope that if you’re reading this, you take the time to invest as deeply in the shop as I have done. They will reciprocate every ounce of investment, and you’ll come out of it not only with a bike you can depend on for years to come, but a relationship of which you can say the same thing.”
“Can't recommend this place enough. Riding for 10+ years, never got a fit. Got a fit done with Greg and learned a ton as we played around with my setup on their custom fit machine/tech. Fit had amazing results on performance and comfort.
I also asked for recommendations to upgrade my current ride or for a new bike entirely, and Greg came back with a range of options across groupsets, wheelsets, and new rides.
Fast forward a few months, I got all the upgrades recommended for my existing ride and it's a totally different bike. Super comfy, fast and responsive. Can't ask for more. They even recommended a great (my new favorite) bike shop in the area, Tuned, to help do the install.
Overall 10/10 experience cant recommend these guys enough. If you are thinking about working with Acme, do it. You won't regret it!”
“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.”
“all these different people are talking about how rude and expensive the people and store are but i bought a flip board today and they let me slide $1.63 because he saw i didn't have the exact change and they also put the grip tape on the board likity split. have no bad memories only good ones from this place, imma pull up tmro and buy wheels and some stickers. 10/10 would recommend and WILL RETURN.”
“I recently bought my first new bike in many years from what used to be Danny's, but was recently purchased by Trek. The sales staff, who have stayed on through the transition, were extremely helpful in recommending a bike and upgraded components that meet my needs. My new bike feels great.”
“Had a wonderful experience with the team at Spin City! They built my bike and took less than 24 hours to turn it around, I couldn’t believe it. Really friendly and knowledgeable staff answered all my questions and made sure I had everything I needed to get out on the road. Ken is a rockstar ?? I can’t wait to go back for the bike care class in the winter!”
“Came here to get air in my wheels, and i for sure did, but also got a free little tune up that took 10m and it made my bike 100 times better and safer to ride. Shoutout to Dimitri for helping me!”
“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”
“Cannot say enough positive things about this place! On a new road bike and my first ride in 10 years, had an unfortunate clip in SNAFU by the bridge that damaged my bike and made it unrideable. Thankfully I was within walking distance of the shop and within an hour it was completely fixed, along with a set of pedals that were a better match for my shoes/bike. I rode about 30 miles after without a hitch and the team was kind and friendly the entire time.”
“They got me back on the road when my sealant dried up and my rear tire flatted out, luckily half mile from them. They sold me a new sealant bottle and hooked me up with the tools to add it.”
“After a lot of support from the team at Propel, I have started riding my Tern GSD in Hawaii. It took a while, but it is worth it! I purchased two Gazelle bikes from Propel a few years ago and was impressed with the customer service. This time was no different. Thanks to everyone in Brooklyn who helped pack and ship the bike, not a scratch! The long distance made it hard, but Jon was always responsive and helpful. Thanks again!”
“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.”
“Bellitte Bicycles is one of those rare gems that reminds you of how things used to be — when craftsmanship mattered, honesty was standard, and a handshake meant something. Walking into this shop feels like stepping back into a time when neighborhood businesses knew your name and took pride in every job, big or small. The team here carries on that tradition beautifully — knowledgeable, straightforward, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Whether you’re getting a quick tune-up or talking components, you’ll find people who care as much about your ride as you do. In a world full of big-box stores and online clicks, Bellitte Bicycles stands as a proud reminder that the old-school way is still the best way.”
“To be honest my girlfriend and I just needed a throwaway wheel to make a prop and the owner / mechanic there was super nice and looked through a bunch of wheels in the shop to find us a busted one that we could take. Also 2 v. cute cats hanging around.”
“Seriously one of the best service I’ve received. Beanie fool hit me with an extra lube service after. Definitely recommend shoutout them all they all took a turn.”

“Our go-to spot for bike maintenance and upkeep. Unfortunately, they tune it so well that we are not required to replace the bikes.
The place is exceptionally well organized;
Looks like a one-person enterprise, more a passion project than a commercial aspiration?
We do recognize that this shop is for pro-cyclists. Ed's doing a favor if he's fixing and tuning your kids' or folding or cruiser bike. It's charity work for him, even if he's charging for it.
Although it not been our experience, did hear one customer suggest they wipe hard-to-reach spots when they tune-up or take wheels apart.”
“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.”
“Stopped by to have my chain removed from being stuck in the wheel. Total life saver! Took him maybe 30-min to take out the back wheel, get the chain, add a guard and reassemble. Tipped him 100% for taking care of it urgently”
“I took my bicycle for a quick service, flat tire and chain lubrication and received fast and professional service at a reasonable cost. I'd use their services again. Thank you!”
“I’ve been into Spokesman Cycles in Glendale a few times now — first with my son’s bike and recently with mine — and every visit has been great. The guys here are honest, quick, and really know their stuff. Service is fast, prices are fair, and they never try to upsell you on things you don’t need. It’s exactly the kind of neighborhood shop you want to support.
And don’t forget to say hi to Guppy the cat while you’re there — she’s super sweet and makes the place feel even more welcoming.”
“Hector was amazing. Extremely patient. Assembled and tuned the bike we bought. Showed the do's and dont's to our son and did it very fast. Thank you Hector.”
“Hector provided a full service along with new brake pads and a chain on my Schwinn mountain bike. His prices are very reasonable. I was very pleased with the results. Thanks Hector!
You will see me again”
“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.”
