Rented a road bike during a business trip. The bike was a good quality and well maintained carbon-framed road-bike and I was allowed to use my own pedals. Really helpful to have the bike dropped off at my hotel and was also able to leave it at my hotel too. Highly recommend renting from 3rd Coast! read more

Marc was awesome helping me fix my loose water bottle holder on my bike. Lost a screw while riding the lakefront bike trail near Navy Pier. Definitely recommend 3rd Coast Cycles on the lakefront for quick bike repairs! read more

If you're trying to buy a used bike GO ELSEWHERE! Horrible communication by the owner & workers, you aren't their priority. They always have something else going on at the shop rather than helping you. Had made an appointment to stop by & they didn't have out any of the bikes we discussed. Was going in circles trying to purchase a bike. read more

Excellent service and care for females! The owner came in on a holiday so I could demo bikes. Their service is over and beyond what I have experienced at other local shops. read more

This shop was extremely helpful in fixing an issue I had with my bike, afterwards I lost my phone and they were helpful in finding it. Great service!!! read more

Stopped in today. Not sure I would make it back home. What a great experience! It's tough to find e-good bike service but these guys knew what the problem was right away and sent me riding down the path with a perfectly running bike! I am very grateful to them and will highly recommend!!! read more

I booked a 9am reservation, only to show up on time and be told that they were just opening and it would take them 30 mins to get our bikes ready. My friend and I are two different frame sizes (information I gave them), and when they gave us the bikes they didn't know for sure which was the larger one. We had a great ride, but checkout took forever too, even though I had prepaid. Pros: the staff was nice, and the bikes were in decent shape. Tldr: don't be the first reservation of the day read more

Fantastic service, great prices, these guys are experts. Do yourself a favor if you need an adjustment and come see these guys.

Had a flat in my tire and it was past sunset and already dark out. Luckily I remembered this shop nearby and decided to get it fixed there. The shop stayed open past their closing time and waited for me to bring my bike in order to get it fixed. Happy to have it fixed and they made my night. Would definitely recommend this shop for their customer service and expertise. read more

My son biked to school and let me know his tires were flat. I spoke to Marc and he went to the school, located the bike and fixed the tires as well as adjusted the breaks. I can't recommend his company enough, excellent work...thank you so much! read more

I came here to get my bike tuned up. I had "The Expert" Comprehensive Shop Tune-Up" for $89. You don't have to schedule an appt if you are getting this kind of tune-up. You can show up anytime to get it done during their open hours. I would call ahead of time just in case to see if they would be available. It depends on how many bikes they have to repair or tune-up on that day. If they have a lot, then you can drop it off and pick it up the next day. I waited for mine and I went around when they opened on a weekday since it would be less busier. It only took 30 min since I was the first one. They text you when it's ready to be picked up. Wes does a great job and is honest with what needs to get done. I have to get my chain replaced but he said that I have a month more to use it before changing it. Changing a bike chain there costs like $35. They also have a warranty plan where you can go back and get your bike fixed at no cost if the repair didn't fix the issue in the first place. I'll probably have to do that for my left brake in the future. read more

A friend of mine recently had a "tune-up" and had new tubes applied to his 1 speed bike from this cycle shop. As we embarked on our 2nd ride since the tune up, he noted that since the tune-up the handling of the front tire felt different than before. He suggested that this new handling must've just been a product of having a recent tune-up and he trusted that the bike shop had actually just tighten everything up and ensured the best bike condition so it felt different to handle. However, 20 minutes later my friend was riding along the lakefront path with me and when he rode over a small lip that is quite literally less than 2 inches in height, his front wheel completed detached from the bike frame and my friend landed face first into the concrete. Sustaining several injuries to his face, nose, and hands . We were going around 15 mph and yet whatever "tune-up" had been done clearly had changed the alignment of the front wheel and caused this crash. When my friend went back to the bike shop to discuss a reimbursement for some level of negligent care on the bike, the staff was unreceptive and further insisted that the wheel issue must have certainly been the fault of the rider. Which by my observations it was certainly not. I do not think the shop had conducted itself in a manner interested in keeping riders safe or wanting to retain future business. read more

Great service, always polite and fun. The best local bike shop in the area. The rental process was quick and easy. Marc was very pleasant and gave very helpful instructions. Definitely will be back! read more

Mark saved the day! i dropped my Super73 today and my chain fell off and was kinked up. Not only did he show up quickly, he also showed us some tips and tricks to try solving on our own in the future. A+ service from a seasoned bike enthusiast!! Highly recommend! read more

Right- i'd a nasty blow on me back wheel up near Buckingham fount and rolled it on down to these mates who fixed me up stat for just a 20 or so quid. Tremendous blokes there gave me some tips and off I went. Cheers! read more

I used 3rd coast cycles about a year ago when I got a flat nearby. They were able to take care of me quickly then. I dropped in randomly today because I was in a desperate need of a tuneup. They didn't try to oversell on anything and they were able to take a look at my bike right away. This it's not a local bike shop to me, but I come here because they have great service and prices are comparable to other shops. It's conveniently located right on the lakefront path. Will be back again for service when needed. read more

Very helpful and quick service. Stopped on the way up North and was moving again within 5 mins.

3rd Coast did a terrific job with my bike tuneup which included tightening my breaks and even fixing the clicking sound when i peddled. They are very conveniently located on the beach bike path and it was all done while i waited. i highly recommend you give them a try. read more

Awesome and helpful shop. Helped me out of a tight spot with tools! Are located on a good spot with kind and helpful people

Nice group of guys! Adorable dog too. Use for your next lakefront excursion. Helped fix my moms bike too.

Super friendly and helpful! Turnaround for bike tuneups was very quick and the location is so convenient!

I used 3rd coast for the chicago triathlon since I was coming from out of state and they were great. I reserved online but when I got there I realized I wanted a lighter bike and they were able to accommodate that with some shuffling. They didn't have to do that but they went above and beyond to make sure I was able to get a comfortable bike. They are also really close to the transition area where we drop off our bikes which was something I was worried about so it really takes a load off your shoulders. I'll use them again for the triathlon. Thanks!!! read more

Our reservation was for 9am, and the confirmation email asked us to text if we'd be late. However, upon our arrival at 9am, the employee told us 'we get here at 9 and it takes 30 minutes to unpack everything.' Why not start the reservations at 9:30 then? We had to wait around for 30 minutes that we could have spent elsewhere. As well, for a 'premium road bike' rental, I was surprised to receive a bike in desperate need of a new chain and new brake pads. Finally, upon our return, we had to hang around another 15 minutes as the employee 'wasn't sure if we have to do anything.' Respect for customer's time and improved bike maintenance is needed here. read more

My bike popped a flat on the lakefront trail. It would have been a 30 minute walk to the nearest bike shop, but 3rd coast was right there. Bam! Perfect. Can't beat convenience like that. Speaking of that they take cash, credit card, Venmo, pay pal ect. Love it. read more

Was in need of air and a bike tool to make adjustments on bike and they provided. Good service and helpful people

The guys at 3rd Coast were so helpful to me in adjusting my seat and filling my tires. They were so kind and efficient, and seemed to care that I could get back on the road safely. Thanks, 3rd Coast Cycles! read more

Great customer service! Very helpful and conveniently located. If you're in the area it's the best place to be

Convenient rental right along the lake shore, pretty easy to make reservations. Great way to enjoy a beautiful day in the city

Saved me in a head wind coming home from soldier field. They are kind and awesome!! Thanks guys!
