B’s Bikes

I love this place. I like to work on my own bike and come in there with a bunch of stupid questions and parts requests, but they never make me feel stupid. Always the best advice and they’ll do everything to get me the parts I need. In a world where bike shops do their best to belittle people like me, this place is a godsend.

Wow! I can’t believe this bike shop has 200 reviews now!
Let me just say: «I understand why they have more reviews than all the other bike shops in the area combined (X2)»
I can remember it was about 10 years ago — the first bike that I bought there — a used Raleigh. They only had used bikes back then. I still have that bike. Over the last decade I’ve bought a nice Fuji and a fixed gear custom. Never had and issues with fast, accurate, service from them or hard to find parts.
All of my referrals have given stellar reviews over the years. All other bike shops should take note — Here’s to another 10 years of my loyal patronage.
Happy New Year!

Highly recommend B’s Bikes. Quality repair work and good advice. Prices reasonable too.

This is my go to bike shop. Really good mechanics, their prices are reasonable and they are not a bunch of bike snobs.

Very fast and friendly. I came in for a quick fix and was not disappointed by the teams attentiveness and professionalism. It is a breath of fresh air to have a shop that is this approachable and fast.
Highly recommend!

This place is amazing. Their selection is great and their staff is extremely knowledgeable. I came in not knowing what size bike I would need, and left with a great quality bike, perfect fit, lightweight and at an affordable price. Highly recommend.

Their shop is a little dirty which I like. They replaced a wheel for $ 30 lower than Brooklyn Bike Peddler’s lowest quote. They’re fully stocked but also willing to do things cheaper if they have used parts to give you. A+. Also they’re just relaxed and friendly, which goes a long way.

So my bike was stolen earlier this summer. The bike I had purchased almost 8 years ago from Bs Bikes. It was a great bike and I remember having a good experience so when it was time to venture in and find a replacement I went back to Bs. I ride a lot, but Im still pretty clueless about bikes, and the guys at this store were a huge help. Particularly William who helped me choose my new bike, and patiently waited while I flipflopped between what I wanted, and tried out several different bikes. Props also go out to the guy who immediately greeted me upon entrance and set me up with William so I didnt have to stand there and pretend I knew what I was looking for. I have two other bike shops closer to my apartment and my daily commute but I will always opt to go here instead.

Stopped in to get a new brake cable for my BMX bike. Although they don’t carry that many BMX parts, they did have exactly what I needed. The guy that helped me even filed down my cable head for the perfect fit! (It was too big otherwise) I’m new to the area and knowing that there’s a legit bike shop around the corner just made me like the area even more. $ 5 out the door and my bike is stopping effortlessly. Thanks guys! Will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this awesome little shop.

All the reviews are accurate. They are direct with what needs to be done and reasonably priced. Will definitely go back.

So good. I had gotten an estimate for my bike’s repair from another shop and it was more than I was comfortable paying, so checked out B’s. Service was so smooth and efficient, I was in and out in 10 mins and spent $ 26 on what another bike shop said would cost me «at least 60.»
Super friendly, not intimidating. No judgement about my being a shitty bike owner. They sell lots of bike accessories, in a wide range of prices.

They care about their customers, and they care about their customers’ bikes. Their attitude isn’t overly friendly, but you’re getting your bike repaired not eating at a five star restaurant, and it’s perfectly acceptable for that.
I came in to get a tune up, asking whether that includes adjusting the deraileur. It did, so I left my bike with them. They even let me leave my bike in the shop for an extra week as I was about to head out of town.
A couple days after I picked it up, I noticed that the front deraileur was still hitting the chain. When I took it in, they adjusted it on the spot, and even taught me about my unusual deraileur and how I could stop the chain issues. It took maybe 10 minutes. Now my bike rides well, and whenever I need more work done, I’ll head to B’s Bikes.

This place is awesome. Ted (and everyone really), did a fantastic job of helping me choose a bike to fit my needs and within my price range, without being the least bit pushy. I couldn’t be happier with the purchase and experience. Thanks guys, I’ll definitely be back!

The just helped me for free on a Sunday afternoon. Very nice guys, it was simple quick fix, and they were very kind and helpful.

B’s Bikes did an amazing job on my bike, and tried to save me money everywhere. Absolutely zero sales pressure, did a perfect job, and gave great advice.
They trued the front wheel, tightened up the brakes, adjusted the headset, adjusted the tire bearing, and now my bike is actually ride-​able! They weren’t happy with the fix on the headset (bike’s fault for being old, not their’s) and didn’t charge me for it. All this with zero wait in about 20 minutes. They also caught some minor issues, like a loose screw on the gear shifting mechanism that was affecting the chain.
I asked about replacing a tire, they said to wait on it, and basically passed on every other chance to up-​sell. Although I didn’t get a tune-​up, I heard them tell another customer it was only $ 50, which is a great deal for the neighborhood (good luck finding one under $ 60).
Will definitely be back for future repairs!

I went into maybe 8 different bike stores in Queens and Brooklyn, I was disappointed with all of them in some way or another. Then I found B’s on here and thought it was kind of out of the way but hey I’m willing to give it a shot.
I’m so glad I did. Soon as I walked in someone asked me if I needed help. So I gave them a low budget on purpose to see how they could help me on that or if they’d up sell me (which the other bike stores did). The guys were super laid back and really helpful and didn’t up sell me at all. I seen a few bikes and they let me try them all without any hesitation. I found the bike I loved and asked a few questions about it. The guy knew his stuff, he offered to swap out the seat and the pedals that I didn’t like too much for no charge.
I highly recommend B’s for all your biking needs. Their prices are solid, they help you out in anyway possible, and their bike selection is really good (mainly Fuji’s and SE bikes and yes others but I can’t recall). The only downside I can see is their 3 month limit on free maintenance. Other than that these guys are great.

They’re the best.
They go above & beyond and deliver excellent service in record time. Every time. 4 year old customer here pleased out of his mind. Sorry I didn’t write this sooner, but this crew is my go to source for keeping my bikes healthy & ready for transpo.
I’ve had my bikeS hit by carS and these gents worked super fast to get me back on the road. Nothing worse than being without transportation and they know that. Aside, they have a good selection of gear, locks, seats, and helmets. They can find you anything and fix anything. Super friendly. Super fast. Super patient.
Thank you B’s

I think this might be my favorite store of any kind, in the whole world. I’ve moved out of Greenpoint, but will continue to visit them, despite having to pass several other bike stores to do so.
What distinguishes them is their service. Far from the condescension to which I’ve become accustomed at most other gear shops, these guys are incredibly friendly and helpful. When I’m talking to an employee, I get the feeling that I’m his highest priority, and can ask for or about whatever I want, no matter how many others are waiting to be helped.

I have to update my review.
I really liked these guys… but a day after I had my bike looked at it started making weird sounds, so I went back. A guy adjusted it, and it became much much worse. So when I went back he said i’d have to leave it and it would cost.
I get leaving it, but I bought a rear wheel there, that now sounds really really bad, and the brakes are very spotty. They sound like pipes hitting each other very loudly and my chain feels like it’s slipping.
My bike is my life. Now i’m in this fix.

These guys were always very helpful and never with the attitude that I often fear when getting my bike serviced.
More than a few times they have really gone out of their way to take care of something quickly and completely. Definitely worth the trip.
