Provided by SuperpagesThe first time i went there i had a broken wheel on my hybrid commuter. I walked the bike in and they took it right away and fixed the wheel at the front of the store. The store is pretty big with a lot of high end new bicycles and accessories. They also have a lot of used and refurbished. The interior of the store itself is kinda dingy and run down looking, but the selection and service very good. I alway like the people working there, except for once or twice when someone there had a little attitude, usually they are friendly and out to help you. They ask about your budget and work with you to meet your needs and budget. Pretty low pressure atmosphere, no pushing you to buy anything. They also have store in boston which is more bmx, plus track i think. Cambridge store is bigger with more hybrid completes, mountain bikes, road bikes, some nice fuji, khs, jamis, van dessel, mongoose, schwinn, breezer.
