We stopped in Bike Farm for a bike helmet. The staff are super friendly and offered great insights into the differences between various helmet styles. Prices are fair and I love that we can shop locally! read more

The bike farm on burner is the place to go for everything bike related. I was there to get some work done at the shop. The guys are so knowledgeable and love their jobs you can tell. I have had a few items worked on for my cruiser and mtn bike and these guys always have what I need and always get the work done super quick. The store has an amazing selection of new and used bikes so if your shopping stop by and check them out. The prices seem super fair at least for repair work. It's easy to access and maybe even have a cool beverage at Ginny's after you drop off or pick up your bike !! read more

Had been coming here for years and never had a problem. I took the same bike they've worked on before and I got told they won't take it now. I always through their flat replacement fee was high but I kept going here because I'd gone here for years... no more apparently. I'm disabled and can't get around easily without that bike. It's really important to my mobility access and I'd appreciated having a bike shop I could trust in case anything happened... and now I'm being turned around. Wonderful read more

Immediately was greeted by Alex which he took the time and energy to show us multiple bikes and also explain the differences they have from each other. Would definitely recommend his services and look for him because he gave a lot of value with knowledge, understanding our needs. read more

Bike Farm - Santa Cruz Blur Size Small Son was checking out the bikes - Bikes Near Me - Austin, Texas

Seven months ago I went to Bike Farm, I was impressed with how friendly and patient Alex was when it came to me needing a new bike under $900 as earlier that day my bike's rim was bent like a taco and needed a new bike fast, he sold me a Specialized Rockhopper Sport at a very reasonable price and it fit me very well, Alex sure saved the day for me and will definitely be a regular at this bike shop whenever I need accessories for it, the bike accessories are reasonably priced, I also appreciate how they don't nickel and dime you like some of the other bike shops do. read more

I'm glad to have a trustworthy place for bike repairs close to where I live. They didn't try to upsell me. I appreciate that.

Headline: SETH NAILED IT!!! Bike farm pulled off the most operationally intricate bike repair transaction I've ever experienced with a 10 out of 10... A+ competence level! At age 59, I am skeptical about customer service when I approach a new business... I retired from large organization change management and most businesses STRUGGLE with operational competence! I live near Reveille Peak Ranch an hour from Austin. A new Bike Farm dude named Seth started greeting me when I rode there and I paid my entry fee. His gregarious outgoing nature was accompanied by solid explanations of their renewed role at Reville. He mentioned bike repair services and so I mentioned my wife's e-bike problem (it would not charge). Long story medium: Upon the next Reville visit, Seth took possession of my wife's ebike for diagnostics and repair in Austin. When I called Bike Farm Home Base and service answered, the ALSO ARTICULATE... SMOOTHLY COMPETENT mechanic KNEW THE BIKE and said the bike was ON THE STAND already being tested! WTF? I went from worried to thrilled! Within two days the problem was identified, and a new charger (the culprit) was in stock at a reasonable price! Diagnostic fees were SUPER REASONABLE and within a week from dropoff, Seth coordinated a pickup at Reville even though an event at the ranch made that difficult. He even had the ebike fully charged when I arrived. THANK YOU, BIKE FARM!!! The bike industry is in trouble. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BIKE SHOP! read more

Was looking for a commuter bike, dude is super chill, love my specialized bike. Got it at a great price. Would definitely go back if I ever need a second bike. Great service. read more

I walked into the shop hoping to get my vintage bike up and running. Upon entering, the employee asked me what work I wanted to get done on the bike. So I talked for a couple minutes about the various things that I thought needed work. Only after I finished speaking did they tell me they couldn't work on it. Very rude. In the future don't waste a persons time by letting them think you're going to help them. Get straight to the point. I won't be coming back. read more

Love this shop but not great customer service when I brought a wheel back that they had worked on that still had problems on the first ride after picking it up. I explained the situation to them (twice) but they insisted on charging me again. Not sure why they did not want to stand by their work. read more

First time at this bike shop. Got a great deal on a slightly used Specialized. Staff was super helpful and friendly. Landed me on a bike I absolutely love. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Overall great experience. read more

Bike Farm - Bikes Near Me - Austin, Texas

I bought an E-bike through this store 15 months ago. The frame cracked so I brought it in to be repaired under the manufactures warranty. After having my bike for SIX WEEKS they call nonchalantly and say "They can't get a hold of the manufacturer so I'm out of luck." I go on the manufactures website and get a response in LESS THAN 10 minutes that they (the manufacturer) have NEVER RECEIVED A CLAIM for the bike?!?!? After speaking on the phone to no less than 3 rude and fully incompetent employees, low and behold, the warranty request went through!! Do not give a dollar to this place. I hope karma finds them swiftly. Shady SHADY shady. *middle finger emoji* read more

Just got back from my 2nd visit to Bike Farm. Basically, what's not to like! Everyone is super friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. First time it was for a new chain which they fixed while I waited and the 2nd time was for new brake pads which were done the same day. They get the bike up on the rack right away and intelligently evaluate the problem with you standing there. Service prices are very reasonable imo. read more

Bike Farm is in walking distance from my house, so when my ebike (my primary form of transportation) got a flat, it felt like a no-brainer to get this basic mishap fixed there. They charge me $72 for it because it's double the labor for ebikes and like, ok, I've seen that before, that's high but I get it. The flat is fixed, I move on. Two days later I get a slow leak. I check the tire and see there is a seed-sized hole in it, which the mechanic either missed or didnt say anything to me about it. And granted, I didnt see it at first either but my job is not a bike mechanic! I take it back, I get a new tire, tube, and an Armour insert to prevent further punctures. They give me a small discount but it came to around $165. Not even two weeks later. Another flat!!! How!!!!!?!? In frustration, I take it down to REI where they tell me the Armour insert wasn't cut down enough and pinched the tube. They fix the flat as well and also charge more for an ebike, but it's a more reasonable $58. So in total, without calculating the ride shares I had to take instead of biking to things while it was out of commission, I spent close to $300 to fix a flat tire. I hate going after a small business and the guys were polite and chill to my face, but this was SEVERAL incidences where they just weren't really paying attention to what they were doing and it cost me dearly and REALLY inconvenienced me off and on for several weeks!!! read more

Terrific prices, service and products! Thank you to Cooper specifically. Love my bike! read more

When these dudes knew this bike was my daily rider, they made sure my discovered crucial repairs were prioritized and addressed quickly. Their labor and parts pricing were very reasonable. My rig is so much easier to ride after the axle repairs and upgrades. They enjoy their work too. They're the real deal. read more

My e-bike needed new brake pads, so I called to see how long it would take. They told me to bring it by and that it would be a same day operation. My e-bike is my primary mode of transportation, so a quick repair is important. Showed up and was told by the service team that it would take 1.5 weeks. The service team then denied that I had ever been told it was a same day job (i.e., calling me a liar). Separate incident: my sister bought a high priced e-bike from them about 6 months ago. Several things were off, including the headlight that was clearly aftermarket and not OEM. After several calls, the shop finally agreed to install the OEM headlight, but only after a lot of headache on my sister's part. Overall--bad shop, dishonest shop. Go elsewhere. read more

I've been in the market to purchase a bike. I had my eyes on one at Bicycle Sports Shop on Parmer. Didn't work out. Guess I need to post that review. Anyhoot after seeing these guys on T.V. and reading the Yelp reviews, I hustled down Burnet to see what they had to offer. They were easy to find, and, the parking wasn't too complicated. It was a balmy Saturday afternoon. I wheeled in and hopped out of my truck with high hopes. I was glad to see they had all of their bikes out in the parking (like I saw on T.V.) lot so you could walk around and check them out. Everyone was wearing masks and that made the experience much more comfortable. Once I looked around I went to the podium and waited for an associate. I was approached in less than five minutes. He asked what my price range was and what was I looking for. After about one minute of conversation he steered me toward a Felt Verza Speed 20. I asked if I could take it for a spin and he said "sure". No questions. No fuss. I took the bike for a spin, and, decided that I wanted it. So I went back to Bike Farm to make the purchase. Once back I noticed my guy was busy with another customer, but, I was immediately approached by someone else. I think he was the owner. Nice guy who didn't put any sales pressure on me at all. I really liked that! I bought the bike and he upgraded my tires, added a kick stand, a water bottle holder, changed the seat to a man friendly one (guys I'm sure you know what I'm talking about), and, I got a camel back, helmet and lock. All were discounted nicely. He also reminded me to register the frame with Felt. I really appreciated the friendly no pressure professional service I got from these guys, and, I really liked that despite the pandemic they allow you to give the bikes a test spin prior to purchasing. Bike Farm gets customer service! Thanks guys!! You are my new go to for all my biking needs! Also, it's been about a month since my purchase and I am really liking my Felt!! Keepin' it local! read more

I bought my bike from Austin Bike Farm. They had good bikes at a good price and although I was a little intimidated walking up, the sales person was clearly a cyclist and was able to help me make a change from a mountain bike to more of a commuter bike that better fit what I used my bike for. It's a great store, but the real reason I'm recommending them is their amazing service department. Every single time I'm there, they go out of their way to get me back on the road quickly and always take the time to answer my questions and show me how to do things myself when I've asked. read more

Words truly fail me to thank the Bike Farm crew enough. My wife has a knee support scooter that needed work, to fix the steering. James was able to quickly identify and repair the handle bars and steering. The Farm manager not only helped return the scooter to the back of the car; but also refused my offer of payment. Any expression of my gratitude falls far short. And I highly recommend the Bike Farm for any two, three or four wheel needs. If I ever want to return riding a bicycle; it's clear that I am choosing the Bike Farm at 5440 Burnet Rd in Austin. read more

Lex is the man!! I walked in close to close and was out of the shop with a new hybrid, lock, and helmet in like 20 minutes! He also put a kickstand ($10) and water bottle holder on for me :) Seems like the shop has a great variety and also they will do brake and shifting tuneups for I think a year. I'm so happy I found this place :) read more

I was shopping for a new bike last week. I wasn't too interested in brand so I checked out several shops, and remembered that Bike Farm is next to my favorite barber shop Honest Barber. I was greeted as I entered, told the guy what I was looking for, and they had one in my size on the floor. A few minutes later I was test riding. Since they are on a busy road you have to ride the sidewalk a short distance to a safe road to test ride on. When I came back and decided to get it the guy helping me suggested going with tubeless tires and said it was only $20 to upgrade. The bike was ready the next day and I rode it home. I love it so far and I anticipate going back for tune ups and spare parts. I would highly recommend this shop especially if you need help figuring out what you need. Besides new they also have a huge selection of used bikes. read more

Bought a Marin MTB from Performance two years ago and ended up having a warranty issue (cracked my frame). Turns out, with the demise of Performance, Bike Farm is the closest local Marin dealer. I remembered Bike Farm as a quirky used shop on Lamar and didn't realize they'd become a more true full service shop. Brought the bike in and these guys couldn't have been better. Considering how backed up most shops are, these guys were able to get me a new frame and rebuild my bike in less than time than BSS needed to rebuild a bottom bracket. They emailed me semi-regularly with updates and the final cost to rebuild everything on the new frame was more than reasonable. I do a lot of my own bike maintenance and only take it the shop when things are especially out of whack...I think I have now found my new LBS of choice. Thanks Bike Farm! read more

Bike Farm - New frame. - Bikes Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is my go to bike shop. I've purchased 2 bikes from them and go for service regularly. My son test rode and picked out his bike while they let me pick it up later for a surprise. Not only is everyone here knowledgeable, they are legitimately park of the cycling community. They make you feel welcome and included. Not to mention the service. Anytime I have a problem the service department goes above and beyond to make sure my bike is running smoothly. I'm constantly referring people and looking at the used bikes. Evokes are a new thing but this is the place to learn more and look into them. Great experience every time!!! read more

Stopped by on Tuesday to ask about the best options for selling my used 2018 road bike. Friendly service and knowledgeable about their game. I brought my bike in today along with my husbands bike for a tune-up. The management team looked my bike over and then answered all of the questions I had about buying a gravel bike. While I was looking at bikes and testing out the two I was interested in the service team updated me on everything needed to fine tune and clean up my husband's bike. I am so happy with the service from the entire team. I found a gravel bike that is more than I had anticipated, traded in my bike for fair and comfortable price and left my husband's bike with the service team who is also going to hold it for me while we are away for the next 7.5 weeks. I am surprised and delighted to see a company actually focus so much on customer service and doing what is right for the customer. I'm sorry I don't remember everyone's name, but please give Doug the dog a good love for me. He will be the reason I stop by occasionally when I am in town to get a lick and play fetch. Thank you team. read more

Bought our 4YO his first pedal bike yesterday and had a great experience. They have a good selection of kids bikes and quality helmets without being overwhelming, and a covered space out back for kids to test ride. Willie was very helpful and patient while we test road every bike, twice, in 100 degree weather. They gave us quite a deal too, highly recommend. read more

I have nothing but praise for this shop. The sales team is not pushy at all, they spend as much time as you need with them before making a decision. It is also awesome that you can test out the bikes in the parking lot. A month after my bike purchase I took it back for tune-up. They did superb job for free and got my handle bar speed control replaced! read more

Hey Bike Farm: When I bought my first bike, ever, less than two months ago - and you walked me through what to look for and you KNEW that it was my first bike -- why didn't you mention to me that having a serial number or keeping track of it would be important? When you talked me into buying the more expensive bike pump and sold me the more expensive bell, and bike rack - (Which I was happy to buy, after receiving the information and discussing it with you; I'm not an idiot) - I spent a lot of money. Maybe not to you, but to me. So, when my bike was stolen last night, and I came to you for help today: And you tell me, "Sorry, we don't keep serial numbers on our bikes," How is this legal or ethical? You're taking literally hundreds of dollars from people, but you have no way to track a bicycle purchased in your system when a customer gives you their credit card information? Or name? Or both? You receive and build new bikes, but you don't track them? Shady, shady, shady. Won't be there again. read more

I've had nothing but trouble with Bike Farm. Twice I've gone for service and parts. They are totally disorganized and don't know what they have in stock. They tell you they have one kind of tire and can't find it anywhere, then try to hard-sell you a more expensive one, then tell you they found the right one--but wait, actually they didn't, so it's back to the hard sell. One time they charged me $20 just to put my bike up on a stand, stare at it, and do nothing because they found out they had the wrong part. I should pay for your incompetence? Unbelievable. The manager is a complete dick; he treats his employees like crap and can't be bothered to give customers the time of day. Most recently my partner went for a flat fix; next day, her wheel came off because they mounted it incorrectly. I'm an experienced rider and have gone to shops all over the country for decades. I have a high tolerance for the kinds of shenanigans that make bike shops fun, if sometimes a little chaotic. That's not what's going on at Bike Farm. It's just a pain in the ass. read more

I bought a bike from them a few months ago and was told there was a warranty for "Minor repairs and adjustments". I was also told the squealing of the brakes would stop after riding it for a bit. The brakes never stopped squealing after months so I took it back up there and they told me that the brakes wouldn't stop squealing and thats just how it was. On that same trip i asked them to fix my flat. They told me it wasnt covered under their "warranty" and that it would be 10 dollars to fix it. When i checked out they said it was 20 dollars. I asked them what repairs were covered under their warranty and they said "No repairs are covered just adjustments" So, lies all around. I will divert anyone looking for a bike to look elsewhere. read more

They try to take advantage of female customers. My friend recently has been teaching me how to repair my bike on my own and because of this I know now what tools and things to do (for basic fixes). I realized as I was cruising down Burnet Rd that the left brake wasn't put back on correctly (its just a pull through and tighten.... easy fix). The repair man wanted to charge me $16!!!! I couldn't believe the charge! Especially since I now know how easy the fix is. Do not fall into their trap. For anyone looking for a good bike shop go to The Peddler! If i was closer to the shop today I would've stopped there since they never disappoint! read more

I had bought a $185 bicycle from Bike Farm and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, the frame detached and broke just 2-3 months later. Un-fixable and a major bummer. Although I was not promised any sort of "warranty," the diligent and still happily working customer service people @BikeFarm in Brentwood on Burnet Road were KIND enough to exchange my broken bike, with a similar one. I was delighted and so happy! I was really worried my $185 was going to go down the drain, and then I'd be forced to pay another $200 to buy another bike. Thanks So So Much to BIKE FARM for their thoughtful service, which got me "on the road again" the Same afternoon. I am now a loyal Bike Farm Customer and ATX local Advocate! Go Local! Buy Local Businesses. GVM read more

I have a long list of complaints with my experience at this farm. Lets just voice 1 of 3 for now. I paid $600 plus to have a hydraulic brake installed on my trike pedicab. I was told by Bob I need to get all my body weight on the pedal to engage the hydraulic brake cylinder he installed. THIS IS UNSAFE, UNPROFESSIONAL AND UNACCEPTABLE! Also my unique parking band brake was removed because Bob said he had no other room on an entire full axle to install his brake. (Total LIE!!!). To top it off I'm told none of the workmanship or parts is warrantied. Strongly encourage you to STAY CLEAR OF THIS Shit-FARM....This place is loaded with BS.... more than 4 months of BS in my case!! Don't let the visual illusion of this place fool you!! They belong on a real farm where it's ok to spread shit. Bob is the one behind the handlebars of my rig. KEEP in mind whenever you step in or confront shit it will usually spread more shit. read more

Racist Employees, Terrible Customer Service There should be a Whites Only sign before you enter!! I do NOT recommend the Bike Farm/ Plantation!! In the past I bought 4 kids bikes from this place!! Thought it was cool, minus the parking. Recently, I brought two of the bikes I purchased back for a trade-in (kids grow after all). I had the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my adult life!!! The first Associate was super nice and informative... he told me to wait on the manager who was on a test ride ... he would give value for my trade-in bikes...Only for him to later kick me off the Farm!! the third sales associate walked away ( without any courtesy " I'll be right back, or ANYTHING!!) I turned mid question after, asking about a price, and the guy was 20 yards away helping someone else! The second associate who was the acting manager , then told me I had been "pushy" earlier in our interaction, (pushy; being defined by him as me asking 'how long I could expect to wait to get a trade in value for my bikes') knowing there was someone in front of me in line. And knowing also that I had CHILDREN with me! I thought time was a customary thing to ask about , I thought I had that privilege in society... Definitely not at the BIKE FARM. Sadly, My kids and I were the ONLY black people on the sales floor shopping for Christmas. I was turned away for being black and outspoken about the customer service and bias treatment my family received from both a sales associate and manager 12/4/21 read more

This probably your best choice for electric bike repair in Austin. The staff is very friendly and outgoing. The prices are more then reasonable. The turnaround time was excellent. You can even get your bike picked up and returned for repair (remember to to tip the driver, he makes regular wage). I needed a simple tire and tube replacement; but my bike is a Tern GSD. My bike is a monster weight wise, even with it's folding ability. These guys picked it up at 1030 and returned it at 1330. I could not even get a call back on the same day from the place I bought it. This is definitely the place for a professional, reasonably priced, fix. read more

I stopped in Bike Farm to pick up some new bike shoes (inexplicably went to Academy first and the guy there didn't even know what bike shoes are. Lol). I was helped out by Mike who just looked at my feet and immediately told me what size they are - some type of voodoo magic! Great, expert service. I'll definitely be back. read more
