Local Bike Shop

Does anyone know of a good bike shop around the Northbridge area for service work? I really like Clarence St Cycles but getting the bike there and finding parking is always a mission. I have tried "Cranks" a couple of times but have always left pretty disappointed with how rude the staff member was who helped me.

Cranks at Chatswood is under new management. I'm hearing good things.

I've been pretty happy with the few bits and pieces I've had done there. Both before and after the "restructure".

I take all my bikes (including my partners) to Dan at Brookvale Bike Factory, i generally let him roam free and fix things that i haven't seen. very happy with the service.

Rideinwokshop, Balgowlah... The only place I'll take my bike. Jordon and his team have wealth of knowledge and are only interested in fixing bikes, not ripping people off... I'm a life customer Smiling

At Rideinworkshop.

I'll echo the comments about him fixing only the things that need doing. Don't go to him if you want someone to justify your hankering for a whole new drivetrain, rimset etc etc. He will tell you what needs to be done, do it extremely well, and charge reasonably. Won't go anywhere else...

Thought I would follow up. Ended up going to cranks Chatswood and I have to say that after bad past experiences I was thoroughly impressed. The guy was very helpful and gave really good advice while not pushing me to spend big bucks while giving me options and time lengths before I may need to have a look again to see where we are at.
