The owner is a very nice and hands on individual. I came in with my son and he was personable and eager to educate me on my bike. I had a 5 year old Felt bike that needed some attention. He didn't attempt to nickle and dime myself. Instead he walked me through what needed to be fixed and gave a good price for the work. I was to pick up my bike three days later but I was unable too and he was gracious enough to hold it till Friday. The day after I received my bike I did have an issue with the chain not moving properly because the derailer wasn't aligned correctly. I brought it and it was fixed immediately. He even took it for a test ride 3 times to confirm the problem and confirm it was fixed. I will be bringing my wife's bike in when she is ready to start riding again in the spring. I did have a few additional question, such as, is it possible to ride with my 6 year old son on my bike. We had a nice conversation about different options, increased safety while riding with a child, and he even queried about my helmet wearing (Which I 100% do and you should too). In a case of coincidence I was there when the single one star reviewer had arrived. I won't speak on the reviewers actions but the owner was more than gracious in my opinion. I visually had seen the bike was next to be worked on by the technician who just completed work on a young teenagers bike and was teaching him to fill the tire with air. The owner assured the reviewer it would be ready before closing in an hour and even offered a discount to the man for the wait. Unfortunately he was not taken up on this offer. The owner apologized and didn't charge a single dollar. Overall: Communication: 5/5 Workmanship: 5/5 Pricing: 5/5

I was working at a coffee shop down the street and originally came in on a whim to see if they had any used bikes. While they didn't have any in my size available, Reuben answered all my questions, let me test ride a bike to get a better idea of what I wanted, and was a great source of knowledge. I'd had some negative bike shop experiences before, so the welcoming nature and generosity of knowledge really stood out to me. A few weeks later I had a question about a bike I wanted to buy (outside of the shop), and they were the first ones that popped into my mind. John, the owner, was extremely generous in helping me make a decision and feeling confident in my choices, even though my scenario didn't guarantee they would be receiving any business from me. I'll preface this by saying I live in Manhattan, across from LIC, but my experiences up to that point were so positive, that I eagerly made the trip when my used bike needed a tune-up and some upgrades. Everyone there was willing to help, with a smile. I really don't know much about bikes, but I walked out of the shop with a greater understanding of bike mechanics, feeling confident in the decisions that were made for the upgrades, and overall a happier, more informed bike owner. Couldn't ask for more!

I had an incredible experience at Bike and Spin. I came in for my first pair of serious road cycling shoes. I really needed an expert, since I've been struggling with an Achilles tendinosis problem. John, the owner, was just the guy. He has extensive knowledge and experience (he's done multiple full ironman triathlons) that he shares with you, and he spends a lot of time with you to make sure you get the right fit. After we found a perfect shoe and after John attached my cleats in the recommended position, he took me around the block to show me how to clip and unclip safely! For free! He didn't have to do that. But it just goes to show you that this guy cares about his customers. Lastly, John's an honest guy. He told me the shoes were on sale 40% off. He could've charged me the full amount and I wouldn't have known better. You can be sure that John will give you a fair price. Combined with extraordinary customer service I mentioned above, you walk away with great gear, great value, and a great experience. Highly recommend

John and the team at Bike and Spin have been nothing but beyond helpful when it has come to learning more about my new pedal assist e-bike, it’s future maintenance, and how to navigate future issues. Whenever I’ve come into this shop with my bike for repairs, I’ve always felt fully informed on my options. I leave with my bike knowing I’ve done what I needed to feel safe on my bike and stayed within my budget. I’ve gotten updates when my bike is in the shop and they check in after I pick it up to make sure everything is to my satisfaction. Personally, there’s no worse feeling than wondering if I just paid for a bunch of repairs I didn’t need or if I went too cheap and that might be a future regret; I’ve never experienced that here and they will have my business as long as I am in the tristate area. They also have a great selection of bike accessories for children, adult beginners, and competitive cyclists. Definitely recommend giving them a shot!

  • Nicole Lai

John (the owner) and Louis were incredibly warm, helpful and honest in helping my husband and me find our first bikes. They took their time (even past closing!) to get us fitted, share personal stories about the bikes they had and their interactions with the bikes we were looking at, and made us feel like we were really cared for. (When you’re dropping a bunch of money on a new toy/hobby, that’s pretty much all you hope for) After trying a bunch of base model Specialized hybrid bikes, we gave the beautiful Roll bikes a try. I ended up loving the one I tested so much, that I asked to buy that very tester (had a few upgrades). Turns out, it was John’s near-new actual bike, and he quoted me an extraordinarily fair price for it! I ended up wheeling it out that very night, and my husband left with a Roll, too. So grateful for small local businesses like Bike and Spin that serve from the heart and keep the community feeling tight and bright.

  • Bo

John is a great and honest business man running this shop. Himself deserves a 5 star review. Long story short I brought in a new bike bought from amazon for a quick fix on tires which came defective...( I know...) John did two things that really earned my trust and respect: 1. we had a real none-BS conversation on the bike quality we can get from places like amazon and from pro-shops like his, I really appreciate his sharpness and being nice at the same time 2. the fix is actually not as tiny as we thought, by EOD he could have charged me more than the initial $25 dollar quote on the issue; but instead he was nice enough to let me test ride and kindly did not charge me more. so he immediately earned me as a customer; im not a biker myself tbh but will send all my biker friends to this shop for the way John is running this business. respect ~

  • Denis Klimentov

All I can say is wow! This shop is what all other ones should look up to. For us, cyclists striken with sky-high price rises and shortages of just about everything this store is like a dream: they wouldn't necessarily just upsell stuff to you, but help you maintain your existing equipment, offer a good advice and help in any way they can. John literally saved me a ton of headaches related to having to travel with my bike, all in a super friendly manner and for free. This is what building a local anchor point for cyclists community is all about! If you're on the lookout for a new bike of any kind, or looking for parts, or anything related, I'd encourage to stop by there first, you will be impressed. Just across the bridge from Manhattan it is worth a trip, I promise. Kudos and keep up the good work! I will def be back.

  • Chris Forero

After riding my tri-bike for several races and long rides for the 2022 Tri-season, I brought in my bike to Bike and Spin for a tune-up and much-needed repairs. Ian and staff were nice enough to walk me through the problems with my bike (new chain/casette needed and repairs to the lower bracket and headset bearings) which was consistent with what i noticed and what bike repair crew at my last race told me. I dropped my bike off on a Friday after work and was told it would be ready by Thursday. On Tuesday (2 days earlier) they called me and told me it was ready for pick up and the cost was the same as what I was initially advised. Ian gave me some good pointers on good maintenance and i rode off into the sunset LOL. Looking forward to bringing my bike back here for future tune-ups!

  • Jeff Roman

Not a fan of this place. I needed a simple brake adjustment for my Lectric 2.0 - Yes, it's an ebike but it was a mechanical issue, not electrical. I got the usual spiel because it's an ebike, yadda, yadda, yadda. When I mentioned it was mechanical, I was told an adjustment starts at 35, but since it's an ebike, it's 40. I finally said, "Forget it. I'll go home and Youtube it and fix it myself." - That's exactly what I did and had it fixed in less than 5 minutes. Both front and back brakes. If you have a regular bike, by all means come to this place. Ebike? Don't bother. Ebikes are the future and a huge growing market. Stop being so old school and get with the program. Oh, by the way, I was able to replace the breaks with hydraulic brakes, thanks to Youtube university.

  • UnJin Lee

A real gem. Read the reviews here - you'd be hard pressed to find a business owner who seems to care more than the owner John does. They are a testament to his understanding that what matters most in life are relationships and human connection. You can't buy these qualities with any amount of money, and the John has built his business around these things. Not that there is anything wrong with this, but if you are seeking anonymous, transactional service, this may not be the place for you. But if you're the kind of person who wants service from someone who clearly puts their passion and soul into their work, this is where you want to be. It's rare to find places like this, and LIC is lucky to have a place like Bike and Spin in the neighborhood.

  • James Nguyen

John Antretter saved my Gary Fisher Utopia that I tuned and fixed up by myself when I first moved to New York. Not much can be said regarding how the bike got to the shop but my understanding was that the bike wasn’t treated respectfully. Bike and Spin walked me through the packing and shipping process and was patient with me both telephonically and financially. I wouldn’t decrease my star rating for Mr. Antretter even if threatened as I fervently think he deserves more stars! I don’t blame the bike shop for the missing bike parts but do blame the bike shop for making me feel more at peace after confirming the Gary Fisher was in good hands. 10/10 would recommend for Local and/or National bike needs.

  • Alex Lee

Try to support local bike shops. I left my bike on Monday night and scheduled it for the pick on Saturday. The bicycle is due for service, tune-up, and a few specific jobs ( bolts replacement ). Called on Saturday, the shop owner said that they found the issue but needed an extra day. He told me to come by Sunday after 1:30. When I visited the bike shop around 4, my bike was untouched. No work had been performed. John told me my bicycle would be next. I told the owner it was okay. At least nothing is done wrong, but I waste my time. (My fault to believe in supporting the local bike shop idea. Not all bike shops create equally). Now hopefully, the shop in Brooklyn has time to take my bicycle in.

  • Laura Newman

I found this shop based on its golden reviews. It totally lived up to them and so I will add mine. I love that the shop operates as a team. I dealt with owner John and mechanic Ian. Both are super communicative and I learned a lot. My bike is very old, a hand-me-down, and not expensive even when new. However, I LOVE this bike and I ride it for an 11 mile commute most work days. The team told me exactly what I needed and what it was going to cost. We negotiated a little too and came up with a plan that felt fair to me and met the needs of the bike. I rode the bike 3 miles home and it’s like a perfect new bike. I love this shop and recommend it 100%.

  • Justin Talbott

would not recommend this place for service work, at least for a gravel bike. they made multiple mistakes on a single service request: * replaced the tube in my wheel with one the wrong size, which i found out when it blew within 2 weeks * i paid to get it 'tuned up' but the rear derailleur indexing was worse when i picked it up and had to fix it myself * they tried to convince me that the front chainring was busted and needed to be replaced, but upon some research i found out the teeth pattern are supposed to alternate the way that it is , which makes sense since the bike is 6 months old and treated well.

  • Anthony Cerbone

I had the honor of meeting John, the owner this afternoon. He did some work on my son's bike (which I use). I had some lovely conversation, got some bike tips and I was amazed at the work he performed on my bike. Mostly I saw how he interacted with his clients. He has an old world approach to customer service. He truly delivers heart-felt greetings to all who enter and people leave smiling. I wish him and his staff continued success. Someone watches over this place as there is a great spirit in this operation. Relationships and memories are made here. This is a place where you can still be a kid.....

  • Matthew Aaron

I stopped by this store for the first time this past weekend to pick up a bike helmet and was impressed with the level of service and how quick the entire process took. However, upon finding that the helmet was listed for cheaper by the manufacturer, I contacted John the owner and he had no issue with me returning it for a full refund. He started to chat with me and I told him that it was hard for me to pay more since I was unemployed and he sympathized with my situation and beat the price the manufacturer was offering online. The owner and staff are the epitome of a well run small business!

  • ZiZZO Bikes

Our company has worked with John for warranty repairs. I personally have been in the cycling industry for over 30 years, starting as a "shop rat" with a broom in hand and desire for all things "bikes". I have worked with good shops and poor shops. John's shop is by far one of the GREAT shops. John's attitude is of someone who cares about cyclist and the love of the sport and NOT some "used car salesperson" trying to separate you from as much money as they can. John and the folks at Bike and Spin are a real asset for their community and beyond. Thank you and your team for great service! Tony

  • Stephen Clemans

I had a great time making a pit stop at John’s! I flew in with my bike to LaGuardia and had some issues getting it squared away for my tour around the city. John’s place was open and he and Ruben had me back in the saddle in no time! The servicing was top notch, the people are warm and friendly and they even gave me a more than fair deal for what I needed! I didn’t have the best start to my trip but running into this shop was a great introduction to NY and I was more than thankful for the advice and help with navigation around the city as well. This place is a 10/10. Thanks John and crew!

  • Jared Micklos

Everything you want in a bike shop: expertise, honest feedback, options, and most importantly genuine care/help. I found this place when I was on a ride to Brooklyn and somehow broke a chain. I walked in off the street and they got me back on road within an hour and offered options for additional work/repairs. I brought the bike back and they had multiple staff look at the bike and we talked through the options….they finished the work with the same care and expertise. Impressed and completely satisfied. Thanks to the team at Bike and Spin!

  • Aammar B

The boss refused to sell me a chain after learning that I’d like to install it myself. I just like working on my own bike! In response, it is not true that I refused to pay for sizing a chain. I refused to pay for installment, which triggered the owner into lecturing me on the expertise associated with typical bike maintenance. That is when I decided it best to take my business elsewhere. All in all, any customer would have been shocked by the response. I hope this clarifies the nature of our interaction and brings closure to it.

  • Anouk Desgroseilliers

This is the best bike shop in town for quality personalised service and a wide selection of products! John helped me buy my first road bike and choose the right gears for my needs as someone just getting started into the world of triathlon (he even went the extra mile to show me how to ride with my first clipless pedals! ) John & his team’s expert knowledge and passion for the sport make this place a rare gem! This is now my go-to place for anything relating to cycling and my two bikes (road & hybrid)!

  • erika farr

JOHN + Ruben are the best. Went in to buy a new saddle bag and next thing you know he is fitting me for my bike (for free). He is so informative and explained how i had been riding (1,500 miles in the year alone) with a totally screwed up height for my saddle and angled handlebars.. I will be returning for clip in shoes and peddles. ONLY GO HERE IF YOU HAVE A NICE BIKE AND DON'T WANT TO GET IT MESSED UP LIKE OTHER PLACES. I don't even live in the neighborhood but wont be going anywhere else

  • Kyle G

This shop is awesome. After calling around to multiple shops to purchase a bike box to ship a used bike home John told me to come on down and that any shop charging for a cardbox box isn't the type of shop you want to deal with. He was right. His shop is modern, clean and has a great selection of bikes, parts and accessories. John is a great guy and easy to get along with. I'd recommend this shop for anyone looking for a bike in NYC who wants honest pricing and quality service.

  • Danielle Bitts

John and team are the real deal. I was in the market for my first tri bike and John’s background in the sport made the process that much easier. He spent 90 minutes on my fitting, ensuring everything was just right and even took me out for a test ride before I brought it home. Looking forward to having a reliable shop in the LIC area where we can take all of our bikes throughout the year with the knowledge that they’re getting the TLC they require. Thanks John!

  • Formula Motorsports

Great experience with John and his staff. I went it as a lifetime cyclist, stretch that, haven't ridden regularly in about 15 years, and left with the perfect fitting bike. Prices are comparable to online wholesalers, selection is vast, and quality of the selection of merchandise is first class. It is nice having a small business in the neighborhood that cares about the client base and I would highly recommend them for service or high end bike sales.

  • Bo-yun Liu

I used to have to go to the shop down the street by Dunk 'n Donuts... Not any more! John the owner is a multiple time Ironman finisher and he gets it. For me, I trust my race bike to people who understand the sport. Bike and Spin is definitely that shop and the team has the mechanical knowledge to deliver. I wish John the very best and will be coming back ofter as the shop ramps up on inventory and becomes fully setup.

  • Carlos Carrion

I went in to have my bike serviced and met Ian who was super cool and very welcoming. While talking with Ian I met John who owns the shop and he reassured me that my bike will be in top shape when completed. My brakes were replaced and also the chain at a great price. John and his team go the extra mile for safety. This shop is high level, stop in and meet John and the team. By the way my bike is race ready!

  • Anthony Milliner

I will say that when I went to bike and spin I was greeted with good customer service I wasn’t sure at the time that I was going to get me a bike that day but I end up doing so because I started talking to one of the customers and he was very good bye getting me the right bike and I was so happy with what I chose. I would say if you are getting a Bike, you should go to bike and spin you won’t regret it

  • Matthew Ng

Great local shop, I'd say best in LIC. I'm local so it's really nice to get a higher quality bike shop in the area. John the owner is a very personal guy and works hard to provide excellent service and honest advice. He's helped me with a number of small fixes on my Trek Madone, even helped me out for free once. If you're reading this and considering a visit, just go for it; you won't regret it.

  • Really Queen

For any adult learners, John is the best guy to pick up riding a bike from. Never ridden a bike before in my life and he had me sailing almost right away. Real intuitive, patient teaching style and he customizes the bike to your needs. After many failed attempts trying to ride a bike on my own, I am over the moon with what I’ve managed to accomplish with John. Highly recommend, 5 stars

  • Rachit Maniar

John is a class act in a time where quality customer service and a personal touch seems to be becoming more and more rare everyday. He quickly took care of an issue I had with my bike and personally made sure everything was up to par. Bike and spin has earned their reputation as a trustworthy establishment and are a welcome and much-needed addition to Long Island City.

  • chris ward

This place rules, I was looking for a good shop and they are the best, they tuned up my bike and fixed other things that I didn't know I could get fixed, they genuinely are passionate about doing a good job and building a community. they're even going to have classes to show you how to fix your own bike, what more do you need to know that they love what they do.

  • anthony hechanova

The few times Ive been to Bike and Spin have been great experiences. It was always a situation where I needed some sort of unorthodox solution for my bikes. You could tell these people care about their customers, new and old. If you love your bikes, Id bring them here. When it comes to bike shops, nobody is perfect, but these people are pretty darn close.

  • Fabian De La Fe

Lost one of my rear brake pads on my way back to Brooklyn and rolled into this shop for help. Not only they helped me out by fixing it for me, but they did not charge me a dime for it. Guys were busy but made time to ask whats up. If you live in the area I think this is a place worth checking out for sure. P.S. Amazing selection of All City bikes!

  • Kevin Black

Fantastic service at Bike & Spin! John is a very friendly manager, very knowledgeable and experienced as both a rider and shop owner, ready and willing work with a wide range of bikes and cyclists. I'm very happy with the service at Bike & Spin, from the triage, to recommendations, to meeting my budget, to customer service, and mechanic service.

  • Amy Hsieh Wu

This shop genuinely takes care of you. I came in with a few issues on my son’s bike and the owner thoroughly worked through all of them. He didn’t charge for the custom labor - so I tried to pay it back by buying front/rear lights. Those were also high quality so I see it as an investment that will last a long time. Thanks so much for the care!

  • Ryan Isabelle

Great shop, and convenient to get to. Ryan was helpful & patient in making sure I got what I was looking for. Very knowledgeable and willing to work with the costumer to ensure an understanding of the products looking to purchase, 10/10 recommend. It is a new shop, so I look forward to their equipment stock growing in the coming weeks/months.

  • Evan Ostrow

I randomly popped into this bike shop and knew right away that this was a great bike shop. The owner is an incredible guy with a wealth of knowledge about everything you would ever need to know about your new bike or life. Awesome shop, good people, great location, can't beat this place. Great brewery and sushi spot next to it as well.

  • Robert Hintze

John and Ruben are amazing always willing to help out with a simple issue and always up front about costs. A lot of bikes shops like to nickel and dime you but John is always upfront about what you bike needs and works with you as much as possible on prices. Highly recommend you give John a visit if your bike is in need of servicing.

  • Christopher Carrow

Professional, Honest, Reliable. This bike shop is one of a kind. My bike needed a lot of work. There was some unforeseen hiccups along the way, although John and Team handled it with poise. Now I have a brand new bike, instead of just tossing it and buying new. Recycle Beauty. It’s worth it. Bike and Spin are the ones to help do it.

  • Tiffany Moore

Best bike shop, EVER! John and his team are so wonderful. John takes extra special care to know each of his clients and their bikes. He listens, advises, and then steps back. He is not pushy; he truly cares about each person and what they need and can do! His knowledge is extensive and he is a joy just to be with! Thank you, John!

  • Erica Gaston

Came to this bike shop in desperation after a small accident. They put me to rights immediately, but also took care of me as a person and offered sensible advice. This is an authentic bike shop of the real tradition of good bike shops... not the slick hipster service you see in so many nearby parts these days. Strongly recommend!

  • Arviell Simmons

THE best bike shop!! John, Leon and the others are always looking after the neighborhood and really are a fixture of the community. I could not think of a better choice to trust your bike repairs with than Bike and Spin. I asked John to fix a back wheel for me and they tuned my bike up better than out of the box! 5 - Stars.

  • Joseph McDonough

While biking around NJ, Staten Island, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Westchester, Rockland and more, I've had to visit quite a few bike shops in the greater NYC area. This place beats them all with their knowledgeable and fantastic service. One should hope their bike bike breaks down in Long Island City!!

  • Lisa C

I came in here after I fell and bent my handle bar really bad. Not only did they fix my bike, they gave me first aid and water. John and his team treated me as if I was part of the family. I have never shopped here prior but will definitely be back. Thank you John and team for making my bad day into a great one.

  • Geoffrey Owen Miller

Edit: went from 4 stars to 2 as I was made to wait for twenty minutes for a tire after they said they had it, only to tell me that it was actually a rear tire and they could only order one for me. Prices are high (about double what you’d pay online, for tire and tube) but I appreciate having a local shop.

  • Tylissa Ortiz

This place is lovely! John is awesome and a delight to talk to. The shop is clean and easy to navigate, prices are fair and the supplies are high quality! They care about your safety and keep it real with you about what you should invest in. 10/10 coming back to suit up my gf when she gets her e-bike!

  • German Ortiz

My homeboy Reuben and John are the best of the best. Love this spot❤❤❤. Every time I go there they treat me good, the work on the bikes me and my friends bring's too them is awesome. They do great work on the bikes. And when ever I called them for any problem I have with my bike they take care of it.

  • Grega Petek

Today was the first time that I visited Bike and Spin. I have to say that John and his team are extremely welcoming, very professional and knowledgeable. Although I moved out of LIC a couple of years ago, as of today I have a good reason to come back by becoming a regular customer at Bike and Spin.

  • A Christiansen

John and team did an excellent job putting together a new bike that I had purchased online. They offered a fair price quote, and then explained clearly and in advance when it had to be increased a bit to reflect unanticipated complexity. The bike looks great, and it rides really well so far.

  • Kirk Noreen

John is aces. His shop brought my bike back from the dead and it rides smooth now. Prices are very reasonable and excellent communication. John is a great owner/operator with zero attitude which is extremely rare for bike shops. Support this great local, small business!!!

  • Chloe Rudman

Amazing! Had the best experience here: John and his employees were very friendly, kind, and cheerful and went way above and beyond to help me with my bike. The shop is spacious, clean, and organized too. Will definitely be doing business here from now on. Thanks, John!

  • Chris Rackow

Great shop! These guys went WAY above and beyond to help me with my repairs. They obviously care about the bikes and the customer, more than just pushing unnecessary sales. Ryan and John are upfront, honest and extremely helpful. If you need help, come see these guys.

  • Samuel Trost

John and team did a complete overhaul on my bike. It rides better than ever. Communication was good through the process and John went above and beyond to help get me on the road as soon as possible at a fair price. I can't wait to give them more business. Thanks!

  • Katie Martin

Great experience at this bike shop! Thanks to John & Ian who helped me find the bike I wanted and for getting me fitted for the perfect ride. They were both patient and kind, allowed me to ask lots of questions about maintenance and gear. Good prices, too!

  • Noel Bunal

Honestly the best bike shop you could ever think of. They would really make a way to fix your bike no matter how complicated it is. The best mechanic and owner too. Look for John and Mario couldn’t thank them enough very accommodating people. …

  • Nick Santos

Love this place for buying gifts for bikers. I once rented a bike from here for a day trip, and the other bikers on the trip were super impressed with the quality of the rental. They did not think shops that rented out such good bikes existed. …

  • Jason B.

Great shop. I can tell the owner really cares about his shop and his clients. Stopped by because my e-scooter’s tube popped and I needed it replaced so they got it done in under an hour, just like new. Great customer service, mechanics and pricing.

  • Jacob Heric

I originally found this shop when my finance and I started training for a half marathon. We have been in a bunch of times for nutrition/supplements, and the staff was always friendly and helpful. So, when we decided we wanted bikes, this

  • Brett Hess

John is an amazing guy!! Took great care of me and I couldn’t be happier. He has suck knowledge and showed everything I need to know to be comfortable on the bike and with my purchase. If you don’t go see John your making a big mistake.

  • Jeffrey Berlin

John the owner just lent me his bike lock for a few hrs because I am here for one day and my bike probably isn't worth the cost of the lock. If there is a genuine individual that deserves your business it's John at Bike and Spin!

  • Nigel Schuster

Brought my bike there a few times for some minor repairs and a check-up. The staff and especially the owner, John, are always incredibly friendly. Their work is fast and good. I always feel like I am getting a lot for my money!

  • dagra83

John and Ruben treated me and my bikes so nicely the first time around that I find no reason why to go to anyone else. They are very knowledgeable, they got a small but good selection of accessories and also nice bikes.

  • Laurie Bell Diaz

Forget about your old bike shop! THIS IS THE ONE! John was so nice in comparison to my local shop. Definitely won me over with some jokes and just good vibes. Come here even if its a ways away.... you won't regret it!

  • Maggie Stapleton

Great bike shop in LIC! I had a flat, and wanted to be back on the road faster than it would have taken me to change it myself. They were able to attend to my bike immediately and were very friendly. Highly recommend.

  • LICRYNO Legacy Gmail

I’ve been living in LIC for 15 years (2006). I finally found a bike shop I can recommend. Folks who love their neighborhood shop locally (not online). This shop is willing to go the extra mile for you, with a smile.

Great service, I got my bike serviced twice and the value of service was worth twice what I paid. John isn’t trying to milk you for your money, he provides the best service possible that’s keeps you coming back.

  • Julian Pei

John, the head homie, was an extremely knowledgeable and experienced Ironman Triathlete that got me set up with some great shoes and even biked alongside me to help me adjust to the tri bike I was borrowing!

  • Peter W

Awesome store with amazing, first class customer service!! They cater to both the novice and elite rider alike... please take this as a heartfelt recommendation for the whole crew at Bike & Spin in LIC.

  • Dajung Yoo

All the staffs are super nice here! I had my very first flat tire, and they explained what was the cause and what to look out next time. I am happy there is an amazing bike shop nearby my place.

  • Cindy Wang

Brought in a bike that was in pretty bad shape, but John and team fixed it up great! And now I know a few things about bike mechanics too :D Thanks for the help, super excited to bike around now

Really great place. I can tell the difference in my bike after getting tune ups here. They are always willing to help, solve issues together with your input, and are just so friendly too.

Very impressed by John and his responsive customer service skills. Retail mindset has been revived from my experience, and I hope more people choose Bike and Spin for their cycle needs.

  • Nancy OLeary

Outstanding service, during the 5 buoro road ride. Very professional, quick and calm help with a tire replacement. If I lived in the city, this is where I’d go for bike service !!

The team here did such awesome work on a tune with new tires, chain, brake pads and bar tape. Attention to detail was amazing and glad to have stopped in. Will be back. Cheers!

Had a great experience here once again getting parts on my bike fixed. They were about to close but the owner John was very polite and willing to help. Will be coming soon!

John and his team are reliable and honest in their work! They fixed several issues that another local bike shop had caused, and then some. Bikers working for bikers.

Best, most attentive service I've found at a bike shop in NYC. Hands down the best out of the 5 bike shops I've visited this summer. Wish I could give an extra star.
