Excellent personable customer service, vast knowledge, and care.
Sometimes the customer service is a little sharp on the edges and you often don't have things in stock, but I do trust you very much and still only go to you.
Matt at the Chelsea store is among your best assets. He is very knowledgeable and highly professional with a great sense of customer service.

Kind & knowledgeable people, quick service
Professional staff
I love both Bicycle Habitat locations. The employees are very knowledgeable and have fixed up my bike many times since I’ve been in Brooklyn. I’m always impressed with the breadth of expertise the employees have and I will continue coming back as long as I’m biking in the city. Couldn’t imagine Brooklyn without them!
Always reliable, friendly and efficient.

The experts at the shop are so helpful and I don’t feel like I’m being upsold
Great customer service and follow-up. We had multiple conversations about cargo bikes before I finally chose and purchased my yuba. The staff was knowledgeable, approachable and extremely helpful.
Bicycle Habitat went above and beyond my expectations!
Knowledgeable service staff helping to make the right purchasing decisions.
Great swift service for my bike
Fantastic and honest.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff
You only had two models of tail light, one extremely expensive, the second one somewhat overpriced and not what I was looking for.

Here's the straight dope - Bicycle Habitat in Brooklyn (but not the one on Lafayette in NYC) has a reputation of be snooty. I was hesitant to bring my bike there, but I was too lazy to go to the other bike shop. We have a saying about going into the store: "prepare to be humiliated."
But, I was very happy to experience a really nice, helpful staff.
I admit that I still have some (small t) trauma from previous encounters so I am cautious. But this was a pleasant interaction so I hope it continues and I hope that the store can turn around this reputation.
