What do you like about our products and services?

I needed to fit a larger cassette on my bicycle and when I brought it in, I had fit the cassette but couldn’t get it to work with my derailleur. They tried and couldn’t do it either so they put the old cassette and chain on without me asking- leaving the bicycle totally useable so that I could still ride that weekend. I asked them to try a Gear Link and they ordered it, installed it, extended the chain, and got it working- now I have a better gear range! I found them super-proactive and capable. Also- I have a Cruzbike recumbent and they didn’t balk. A lot of stores turn you away!

What do you like about our products and services?

Like how I feel like Helen's staff is knowledgeable about all things biking
Like how Helen's appears to have the correct bike stock for all budgets but maintain high quality.
Like how entering the Broadway SM store you enter through the maintenance area--makes me feel good about coming here after my purchase for upkeep and repair.
Like how even when I brought my kid's cheapo bike in for repair when they were little, was treated with same respect as if we were Olympic cyclists that needed a quick repair.
Like how we were always charged fairly for repairs and got good advise.
So...coming back to purchase

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

Waiting for a sales person to get us inside and then rushing us to get out because it was closing time.
Even though we bought 4 bikes, We couldn’t get our older road bike for service because it would take 10 days to get it back.

What do you like about our products and services?

I showed up fairly late one day when the store was about to close within the next 15 minutes but the associates were kind enough to show me around. One gentleman, Eric showed me bikes that were just what I was looking for. Then, I came back the next day and purchased a bike and Cameron helped me load it into the car. Another guy helped me pick out a good bike lock as well.

What do you like about our products and services?

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received mechanically. And otherwise. Everybody is so nice and so courteous and friendly and helpful. I know I sound like a family member but I am not happy with the treatment I’ve received. Thank you to the Helen’s team

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

If you REALLY care, send someone *undercover* and see for yourself how the customer service is? Send enough people to test each worker. Send a male, a female, and a different race for each gender. Then tabulate the score. I am a black male, and I’ve been to the store several times, and each time I’ve felt unwelcome, and service has been rude. (On time brought matter to management.) This last experience convinced me I do not want to endure treatment ever again!!

Helen’s cycles
Is the best bike store in the city! Probably one of the top 3 bike stores in the country- spectacular service and customer service!

If you don’t have a bike go to Helen’s today!

What do you like about our products and services?

The guys who service the bikes are the best. Swift and efficient. And the "concierge" fella outside the back door during this crappy COVID period, who guides patrons inside the store for this and/or that is in full command of store info and services with an ability to recommend simple fixes to bike problems that appear to be hard to the untrained eye.
