About Us

Your neighborhood bike shop

Tune ups, repairs and service

Tune ups, repairs and service

Since 2012, we have been serving 

the Chicagoland area. We cater to the "casual cyclists" without the intimidation you might face when walking into a typical bike shop. All interactions and repairs will be performed by the owner himself who will explain everything without using technical terms and charge you a fair price for the excellent services offered.

Tune ups, repairs and service

Bicycles for all budgets

Most bike shops will not service your e-bike from a brand they do not represent. We offer limited service work on some "regular bicycle-based" e-bikes - eg. tire/tube replacements, brakes, cables, derailleurs, etc.. *We DO NOT service any of the electronic components. 

Battery packs must be left at home. 

Please inquire.
