Had a couple bikes in this week. One for a brake bleed. The other was a brand new bike build. In all the years I have been doing this I was super impressed thi...s Trek. From the factory it had a lubricated seat post and cranks arms. I didn’t notice this until I went to install the pedals. I guess more never hurts. See more

Well I think I know why your wheel doesn’t want to spin. Hahaha. Watch out in your garage when backing up your vehicle. Still getting a few die hard winter rid...ers coming through true shop. Call today if you need your winter bike serviced or want to get a jump on servicing your bike for the spring.

So I had an accident with my phone and have lost all contacts to anyone who i performed a bike service for in 2019 and 2020. Feel free to send me a text or call so i can re-add you back to my contacts.

What a busy summer this has been. More bikes serviced that all my previous years combined!!!!! Which doesn't leave much time for Facebook posts. This year's trend seems to be bikes with mismatched shifters to cassettes. I have seen an astonishing number of bikes with 6/7/8/9 speed shifters and not having the corresponding number of gears on the rear wheel. Point and case below.

It's been a crazy busy couple of weeks. I have already serviced more bikes that last year and passed my goal of servicing 100 bikes! Here is a few photos of some broken parts I have seen in the last week alone. Fork rebuild, bent brake post and a snapped axle.

Never had a Lamborghini roll through my garage before. Although the components do not share the same high quality as the car manufacturer. Cool bike regardless. Contact me (Sam) for all your bike repair needs!

Things are ramping up with the bike services. I have already had a number of bikes through the garage this week This Novelo had some very interesting rear derailleur cable routing, to which the customer was complaining about their rear gears. I can see why. Not to mention the cracked rear cassette gear. I'm pretty shocked this bike was able to ride anywhere haha.
