Lakeside Bicycles

I bought my daughter’s bikes from Walmart and they were a challenge for me to install and have the chain lineup correctly and the brake pads lineup correctly. I brought my bike into Lakeside bicycles the day after Christmas and the guy in the repair shop helped me. He had many other bikes ahead of mine and customers stopping in constantly, but understood that my girls got bicycles for Christmas and weren’t able to ride them. He set them all up and they ran smoothly. He did a safety check and ...

I brought my 10 year old, daily rider, Specialized AWOL in for service. After it was cleaned and thoroughly inspected, a crack in the frame was discovered. I was notified and given options, including warranty replacement (if I was the original owner and could provide proof of purchase). I was, and had copy of my receipt (from a different bike shop).

This place used to feel like a mom and pop shop with great people. I was always treated well. But now if I'm not interested in a $5,000 bike, nothing.

I know it won't be a $1,000 repair but I'm willing to p...

I brought the bike in as they are one of the only Campy stores listed in the area. I was greated with kidness and respect, they werent pretentious. The crazy thing was they had it ...

I cannot recommend Lakeside Bicycles enough. All of the sales staff are extremely friendly and helpful and are all very passionate and knowledgeable about bikes. Also the mechanics are very good at what they do and deliver great services in a very timely manner. The staff are also not pushy at all and you can tell that they genuinely want to help folks with bikes. I would also say that if you are having any bike fit issues, or are even somewhat serious about biking a bike fitting from Zak is...
