This is the only place that I will bring my racing bike to for any work. They are friendly and aim to please. They may provide an opinion or two contrary to what you want, but it's based on experience working on thousands of bikes each year. I participated in a triathlon in Hawaii a couple of years ago, and they carefully packed my bike away and had it ready when the transit arrived to pick her up. When it returned to the shop, they looked at a few issues i had while racing due to the shoddy set up the island bike shop did, and they made some recommendations and fixed somethings. They have also tuned up my bike on a couple of different occasions, and they always have it ready ahead of time. Quality service, quality product! read more

I'm biased toward this shop. I used to sort of work there (maybe that story should be told but not here) but it's been years since I did and that was under a different owner / manager. There you go - full disclosure. I haven't owned a car in over 20 years. For the past 7 or 8 years I've been riding daily. My first good all around, hauling groceries / laundry / clothes for work / gettin' around city bike came from The Bicycle Shop. Now, fast forward to last week. I brought my main ride, Jethro, into the shop for a major overhaul, long over due. I was expecting 3 or 4 days for the rebuild. What I wasn't expecting was a phone call telling me Jethro's head tube was cracked. Alas, poor Jethro! It took less than 2 days to find an appropriate replacement frame and get it on the way to Baton Rouge. Less than a week later the frame arrived. My work and other activities kept me from getting to the shop on Tuesday but I did get in first thing Wednesday. First thing, in this case, meant 10.30 AM. I went back to the shop at 4.15 PM for other business and to get a few pictures of the new bike being built out of the useable parts of Jethro. To my surprise the build was complete! Wow . . .. I can't say enough good things about The Bicycle Shop so I won't even try. I will say this though, you do yourself a disservice if you don't come to The Bicycle Shop to at least look at a bicycle. If you are fortunate, you will purchase a bicycle from them and start a long-term relationship with some of the most knowledgeable, talented, skilled, and friendly bicycle folk you're likely to meet. Go to their Webpage to see what brands they carry. Take my word for it, you will be hard pressed to find a better shop. read more

I'm done. Was in to get another flat fixed. Unsympathetic customer service and they overinflated the tube (didn't use a gauge) which caused the new tube to fail, this after not having it fixed when promised. read more

My fiancé is away for military training and he has been wanting to get his bike fixed for several months now. I figured with him being gone for a month would give me plenty of time to get his bike fixed for an unexpected surprise when he returns. I took his bike to Capital Cyclery on Jones Creek & they basically told me that they didn't have the parts to fix it and that it would be the first week of September before they could get it back to me! They also expected me to call every week to find out if they had gotten the parts in that the bike needed. I called around to the location on Essen (Capital Cyclery) they also did not have the parts needed and they also said the Florida Blvd location was also out of stock. My next step was to google bike shops in Baton Rouge. At this point I'm desperate because I'm thinking I won't have my fiancé's bike back before he gets home. I call The Bicycle Shop & they ask me a few questions about the bike and I'm unable to answer enough to figure out if they have the parts so they schedule me to come in to have the bike looked at. I bring the bike on the appointment day I had scheduled for me and they took the bike (it was a Saturday) the guy that came out to my car and looked at it was very quick with getting my information and told me that they would be ordering parts today and that they would be in touch. I was ecstatic. I was already thrilled that they took the bike and said they were ordering parts that soon & I got a phone call on Tuesday saying the bike was ready to be picked up!!! This place has THE best customer service I have experienced in a while & I want to give a shout out to Jacob for helping me and being on top of everything from start to finish. If I ever need bike repair again or have friends and family that need repairs I will definitely send them to the Bicycle Shop!! read more

Friendly staff, quick service. Went in to replace broken off hand brake on my son's bike. Young guy told me they would need 2 days to fix due to the beginning of school rush (they're just outside north gates of LSU's campus), which was fine. They didn't call me to say it was done; I called them. Best to call them ahead of time because parking and access is a beast. You don't want to make an unnecessary trip. When bike was ready, a nice young guy helped me out. All good. Based on the other (helpful) reviews on this page I was expecting bike snobs. They didn't judge my Walmart-purchased Huffy. I was actually grateful for that. So, as I say, all around decent experience. read more

These guys are the best bike shop I've been to. I've raced and have been cycling seriously since 1985 and lived in Toronto, Vancouver, Los Angeles but this shop is the best and commuted group and know there craft and care unlike most shops, I was working in Baton Rouge last summer and I shipped my cervelo soloist only to discover a crack forming in the frame.. I told them about it and they took care of me and set everything up with cervelo and when the replacement s3 arrive they set it up perfectly with my campy components. I am in Nola working now and my derailleur hanger got bent in in shipping .. I drove up and butler fixed it in a minute .. They are honest, not trying to rip you off, interested in customer service and love what they do. I just with they were in LA !! read more

Great selection of all levels bikes here. I bought a Specialized TT bike today here. Great customer service from entire staff. Nice store with all items one expects from any good shop. Will be a return customer indeed. Thanks folks. Well done. read more

Every time I go into this store I have a bad experience. They're a bunch of bike snobs. Very rude to customers, and overall not helpful. Today the man refused to put new handlebars on my bike because in his opinion they wouldn't be right on the bike. I don't care what a bike snob thinks, I just know I want new handlebars. And for $50 for the bars alone, I don't want them to put new ones on anyway. I went across the street to Massey's where the guy put new handlebars on for me for $20 total, and was nice about it. I love my bike with the new bars, I don't need to be talked down to when I go into a store for some bike help. Rude. read more

Helpful and Kind staff. Large selection of top end bikes, as well.
