I highly recommend Bobby Sprocket. Earlier today, I got a flat on my bike. I called them since they were ~ 4 miles away. Without hesitation, they picked me and my wife up, immediately replaced the inner tube and did a quick tune up. We had no money on us so he told us we can pay for it later in the week. The service was quick, professional and they were incredibly accommodating. We were on our way in about 10 minutes.

I went there because they were open on Monday and Ron likes them. I don’t know why Jeremy M thought $ 10.00 was a lot to fix a flat. Car guys charge a lot more than that and they only stick a plug in. What 5 minutes? In any case I did ask and didn’t think $ 15 — 20 was unreasonable to true my back wheel. Mine was not even rubbing on the break pad so only 15.95 + tax. The service was superb! When I arrived they were there but not quite open. Unlike the Post Office I was welcomed immediately and promised that the wheel would be ready later that day. Around lunch time the call came and I picked it up. Only time will tell if it will stay true but i’m pretty confident that if I went back tomorrow with a complaint it would be taken care of.

I popped my tire on the bike trail, and walked it down to get repaired. Bobby, was very helpful, and nice. He explained that he could put some rim tape down so the tube wouldn’t pop again. I accepted, and let him change the tube. He did a good job, however he didn’t tell me that he would be charging for a whole roll of the tape($ 6), and not giving it to me after he used the little amount needed. He also didn’t tell me that he would be charging an additional $ 10 for a service fee. I was in a rush, and a little shocked, so I didn’t try to question or argue it. The tube was a bit more expensive than other shops. All together I paid a little over $ 25 for my tube to be replaced. Nice place, but I would get a price quote before you get any services done here.

I’ve bought my bike here and have been going there to get it serviced and fixed for several years. They also installed a hitch for my truck. A great bunch of people who know what they are doing. I highly recommend.

hands down, the best bike shop i have been to in years. A few months ago my wife wanted a new bicycle. I stopped in here on the way home from work one night and talked to them and after talking I decided to bring her in the next day for some test rides. They must have taken out over a dozen different bikes for her to spin around the parking lot. we narrowed it down to one and were going to come back to buy it later that day after lunch. The staff here is super-friendly and knew about all things bike oriented, and i noticed a sign that says they tune up small gas engines(lawn mowers, snow blowers, etc) which is pretty cool if you have an engine in need of repair. as a small independent bike shop they didn’t have every brand and every model of every bike in stock, which is reasonable. smaller shops can’t carry some lines because the big bike companies require small stores to buy big minimums, which is a bummer if you have your heart set on a specific brand you may not be able to find it in a store to test ride. when i called back to finalize the deal the store had closed early, which was a little disappointing — we were trying to buy a bike that day and ended up going to a bigger chain store to buy the same bike we had tried at bobby sprockets for about the same price. Any repairs or accessories i need will be coming from Bobby’s.
