What do you like about our products and services?

I worked with (in order of meeting) Libby, Jon/John and Mike(self proclaimed "shorter Mike"). Each one of them took their time to talk with me, never speaking down or rushing me through questions or explanations. No matter if there was a line out of the door or no one around, they were super friendly and knowledgeable. I'm super happy I went with Bicycle Habitat :)

The person who help us listened and explained what he was going to look for and - when he figures out what was wrong - explained how he fixed it as well as what I should look for in the future.

What do you like about our products and services?

Brought my ‘84 Bianchi road bike in for a tune up, got an honest assessment of the bike, no up sell, work done on time, no surprises when I picked it up, and the staff couldn’t have been nicer. Have ridden it twice on my trainer because the weather stinks and it’s perfect. Made a commitment to myself to bring it for service regularly.

What do you like about our products and services?

I like that the staff took the time to listen to my needs and match them with a product that was completely appropriate to my stated needs and stated price range. They also prioritized my safety and that of my infant son's which makes them a business in its own top notch class!

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

It's unfortunately fairly simple. Even though I've bought two bikes from you and have had generally good service experience, I would be hard pressed to recommend anyone go to your shop.
Your 5th Ave store base become a fortress with confused, frustrated customers waiting in front asking what line they should be in or if they can go inside. I saw three people give up and walk away.
Sure, I remember May 2020 but haven't we all figured out a way to run a safe retail environment? I'm sure visitors would be happy to wear a mask or prove vaccination status. I've been to plenty of places where that's still the case. But wait outside? Really?
And why on earth does your 5th Ave store have to be closed on Tuesday, when none of your others are? Please, don't answer. It offers yet another barrier to your castle.
As it is, I waited for 25 minutes outside just to request a simple repair. This was my second visit because I came on a Tuesday BTW. The mechanics were totally fine and I don't blame them for the absurd difficulties you've asked your customers to endure.

Izzy, who helped me pick a bike seat, was great!! Told me not to worry about returning it if it didn't fit right and installed it for free. Lovely time here.

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

I rented a bicycle and I know you aren't in the business of renting bicycles but I had to beg for a water bottle cage, there was no spare tire or tire changing equipment on the bike which in not appropriate. I had to buy a tube which I returned without getting refunded because I couldn’t carry the box. The bike I rented was extra small yet the handlebars could not have been any wider and the tires were 52’s. When I arranged for the bike I asked for a road bike because I arrived5 days before the 5BBT to tour the area yet I was given the least road friendly bike and there were no negotiations to make the bike fit me better.
When I have paid to rent a bike in the past, the shop has always been willing to make adjustments to get it to fit me more comfortably and that was not an option here.
While I appreciate you carrying rentals for the week of the 5BBT, we paid good money for them and should have been treated better by your bike shop employees.

What do you like about our products and services?

Honestly I am simultaneously terrified of and bummed out by bike shops and bike experts and the whole culture typically but this shop isn’t like that! Izzy took good care of me and I’m really pleased with what I bought.

What could we do to improve?

The lines are so long. Additionally, I would’ve loved to be able to walk around the store as opposed to waiting outside to see bicycles and accessories.
