If you want a very commercial bike repair shop who does not give shit about you or your bike but…read moreonly cares about how to make money, you can go there. Very rude & bad customer service... does not know how to talk with customers. I went there to have some minimal repair to my bike... and they were charging me a leg and an arm for something very easy and minimal to do and on top of that wanted to charge extra for every little thing I asked them to check. I would suggest to walk 2 minutes further and go to the Decathlon work and you get a much better attitude and not trying to rip off.

We were encouraged to use this shop by Richard who works there, we had a reasonable shopping…read moreexperience and we agreed upon a bike, the price, and a lock. The bike was to be purchased with the payout by insurance for my stolen bike and would require we pay a top up of 30 Euro. Then as we went to get the bike we were told we owed another 80 Euro just for the bike, plus additional 30 for a lock. The reason being the type of insurance and insurance company charged the store 20% extra. We insisted this was not our burden, that the deal was struck and they should honour it: not charge us an additional 110 euros. In going back and forth with them, Nikolai was speaking with us and was extremely rude, treating myself and a friend with disrespect. I do not recommend this store to anyone!

If you're looking for an affordable designer city bike, you should definitely drop by. As some of…read morethe reviewers mentioned, this young company started by two Dutch designers, won awards for the innovate industrial designs -- incorporating a really bright led front head and rear tail light into one minimal anodized aluminum tube frame. As soon as we walked in we were warmly welcomed by one of the co-owners, Taco, who guided us through all the features. [In fact, I had come in to take a look at the Strida bikes(the odd triangular commuter bike) which they the distributor for in NL. That bike is really cool, but pretty pricey.] Anyway, I couldn't make up my mind while I was there, but Taco was so nice and patient giving me options to test ride and even keep it for awhile, that I felt like buying it just because he was such a cool guy! We also took a look at their new electric assist bike, and some great features on some bikes like the built-in locks, etc. All in all, it was a great experience at their flagship store and would recommend a visit if you're considering it. It's a standout bike, so if you like the look, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

We wanted a basket to carry groceries and my messenger bag; they happily attached one for us using cable cars. The location seems like it's far from the center, but really only ten minutes cycling gets you to most nearly all the main sites in Amsterdam, so much faster than the tram and cheaper too. We wanted to extend our rental for a day and they were fine with that. Very friendly people! Would definitely rent here again. We also bought some of their cool bike bells.

This is the only bike repair shop in my area, and it is attached to a bike store. The entrance to…read morethe repair shop is on the side street, separate from the main store's entrance. The reason for the low rating is that I didn't have any issues with my bike until I brought it there for repairs, and I've had more issues in the past month than I ever did since I bought it and I don't ride it that often - maybe 1-2x per week. Either they put a curse on my bike or they did a horrible job, I'm not sure which one it is because I don't know anything about bikes. After getting into my first bicycle accident since I arrived in the Netherlands, I took my bike here to get my front wheel replaced. The staff were professional and polite, explaining what needed to be done and how much it would cost. I was given a ticket for dropping off my bike, and was told I would be notified via SMS when my bike was ready for pickup. At first I thought they did a good job, my bike was as good as new but then 2 weeks later my back wheel got a flat and the inner tube had to be replaced. Once again, I took it there to be repaired and they discovered some other issues with my bike which I also had fixed. However, I noticed that my bike rattles a lot more now and it seems like everything is very loose. Good thing is that my bike makes lots of noise so that people know I'm coming, no need for a bell! *sarcasm* It is now another 2 weeks later and guess what, my front wheel is flat... the curse has struck again!

I bought a folding bike from this place, thought it was an honest bye but it turns out that it was…read morenot as honest as I would have hoped. First, he told me to go to a specific ATM to get cash to pay for the bike and that it was better than another one because they did not charge extra for the transaction. Turns out the ATM charged a higher rate converting my ISK money to Euros so I ended up being scammed. Second, when I started using the bike I had to take it to a bike shop to even the brakes - it's a good thing I did because they had to put new screws holding the tires because they where not the right size and the reason for the brakes being uneven. I would not expect to get a new bike and have to start by fixing it. So all in all, I trusted the man in this bike shop and I shouldn't have. I am pretty bummed about this and would advise people from doing business with them.
