What do you like about our products and services?

I love that the staff members take their time to explain everything in detail to a new bike buyer. I loved being able to test ride several bikes before making a definite decision and not feeling pressured to buying anything.

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

I mentioned ongoing difficulties with shifting and strange sounds to mechanic, but this was not addressed. My bike was "ready" 15 minutes after dropping it off for the new bike tune-up. The bike was not assembled well, and the derailleur it turns out was quite bent from the get-go. My ongoing mechanic repaired the bike and it is now working better than ever.

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

It was disappointing to have Brian set the expectation that he would help me find the most comfortable bike for my large frame and then try to coerce me to buy another bike that I already said I was not comfortable with, while attempting to gaslight me into thinking that my discomfort with the smaller bikes I was testing out was “70% mental”. It was also disappointing to be told that I would be able to test ride a bike that was built for me to test on, and then when I show up to test out the bike I’m being told that I can’t test ride it because “it’s about to rain”, even though it wasn’t raining when I showed up. It was even more disappointing when I finally got to test the bike out, and upon setting my own expectation that I needed to sell my current bike (like new condition $500 bike) that the store would likely only give me $50 for it. Was also annoying to be told by Brian that he would hold the bike for me for an extra 2 weeks as a courtesy because “that size and style bike isn’t in demand”, and then I get a phone call 5 days later pressuring me to buy the bike.

What do you like about our products and services?

My bike feels so much better than before and not just for the tire that I replaced. Everything feels so much tighter. My bike feels like an extension of my body now. It's great!

What do you like about our products and services?

Great Service! All the staff treat all the customers with the same level of courtesy and respect regardless of what kind of bike you own. Unlike that other bike store on northern 5th Ave, which shall remain nameless, that caters mostly to road racers. If you don't go into that store with less than a $2000 carbon racing bike you will get condescending and cold service.

What do you like about our products and services?

Great service! That being said, I was sold the wrong part last time I was in there. I needed a threaded headset but was sold a thread less one. This is after I said "threaded" many times and we were all standing there looking at the bike which clearly had a threaded headset. Not sure how the disconnect occurred.

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

This week they changed flat tire: replaced inner tube and rim tape. I walked bike the very short distance home. I did not ride it. Next day the tire was flat again.

Same thing happened last summer!

The system at BH is not good for diagnosing deeper issues. They get work in and spit it out. The result being customers have to make repeated trips back.

I was going to Dixon’s but BH is closer so I switched. I will probably start going back to Dixon’s.

Very patient salesperson who worked with me on sizing and pricing of the bicycle as well as locks. I appreciated this as this is the first bike I've ever bought.

Service is fully on point re: attitude, timeliness, price.
And there is an ice cream shop 1/2 a block away.
Who could ask for anything more?

Salesperson sold me a helmet that was too big on my kid and then when I expressed doubt got condescending and brushed me off. Honestly I rated too low it wasn’t a 2 but I’m freaked out having a poorly sized helmet for my kid. Another staff person was lovely and helped me pick a multi tool.
