Not that Jersey Shore,…read morebut this one https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/christopher-cook-gilmore/atlantic-city-proof/. Anyway - I am here on business and due to my travels had not been able to take my bike to my local Northfield, NJ Beacon sport bike shop for maintenance. Boy am I glad for this serendipity! And betcha you are too! You non-local in search of what I needed. I went in to get the minimum - tires inflated and brakes checked. Possibly going for the full tune up to a cool 50USD. I would be more than willing to pay this folks for what this gentleman did. I handed him my bike. It didn't occur to me to ask him how long he might be. I looked around the shop then wandered back eventually to the maintenance area. He and his colleague were like "does this sound right?" Move gears fiddle. Check again. Conversation, hushed. I'm like oh no! I decide... let me just walk away... He comes out we chat. He said small adjustments as he really found nothing that required any real fixing. I told him about some discomfort I had and asked if he'd help with any tips on my Raleigh Avenir foldable bike? He's like "to be honest, we had to YouTube the Shimano gear stuff to see if the small tweaks we did with one of the wires was correct. And I recommend that you take it to your other shop for that but it all looks fine. But I see you sitting on the bike and let's try something." He moves things around. Has me sit. He had me raise the pedal to three o'clock on one side. Asks me to hop off, more adjustments Repeat. The person's toes should barely touch when seated in a bike he tells me when sitting in the saddle. He marks off with a knife along the post where the seat height should be when I fold the bike down fully - which I avoid doing to not mess up the ergonomics once it's set. He assures me the bike will not rust since it's aluminum. Cause I have no poker face folks. And that's not the Gaga in me talkin' ok? Let's be clear! *laughs* I ask, "so what do I owe you?" His reply. Shrug. "nothing". I look him in the eye, are you sure like? Nods. Yep. I give him my hand in thanks. He did not charge me one red pink or purple cent nickel or dime. Readjusted my seat height. Fixed the tilt of the saddle and let me test it all in the store with three inch wedges?! He be da man, man! The reason I do not give five stars? There is one way in. It's via two glass non-automatic doors and here's little old girl me, walking out the bike and no one opens the door or props it open for me - this lady right here. So I have to maneuver/MacGyver it so I do not get slammed between the one door and my bike handle bars in the crotch... Once I finagled myself out of the store. I hopped right into the bike. Weeeeee!!!! Please if you are not a local and need bike maintenance go here. If you are a local you have a man who knows bikes but more importantly body mechanics and is honest. Check them out friends. And tell them the non-girly girl from out of town who came in, close to closing time, and hopped onto the foldable black bike in the store sent you there way. I'd be mighty obliged. Maybe they'll open the door for the next gal à la Southern gentleman that I find oh so attractive. *wink* right ladies? You know from which I speak.

I recently had the best experience at Performance Bicycle. I had been in a few times with my…read morepartner and he had excellent experiences, but this time I was alone and trying to get my bike repaired. This is a bike that has sat for several years, in good condition, but definitely needed to be looked at. I went into the store upon arrival and was greeted immediately by a kind gentleman, I think the same one who had previously helped my boyfriend. He graciously helped me bring the bike in from my car to the store and then worked on checking it out. After discovering my handlebars had likely been installed incorrectly, he set about turning them to their proper placement. He also filled the front tire which had gone completely flat and tightened my bolts and brakes. Before I knew it, he was generously helping me back outside with my bike and helping me load it into the car. When it was loaded, me still holding my wallet, I said "what do I owe you?" with a smile, hoping I could pay him for his time. He said not to worry about it and told me to have a great day as he headed back to the store. Kindness and great customer service are not found everywhere, and I will remember this experience and Performance Bicycle because of it. Thanks, PB.

Some examples include; knowing and applying proper torque on linkage pins and screws so as to avoid overstressing and failures, knowing and using Locktite Blue 232 where it's needed, properly adjusting front and rear shocks, putting the right grease where the grease is supposed to go...he's just a super helpful guy. I recently had a problem with a bolt having stripped the inside assembly of a frame and he used a tap and die to actually rethread the inside of the receiving threads to get me rolling again. Epic service. He knows what he is doing. I have found his prices are fair and affordable. I have also come to value his advice when buying gear. He has saved me money by recommending exactly what I needed and nothing I didin't. We are lucky to have this guy in Crozet. He is a Pro. Go support him. Don't buy that new Maxxon DHS from Jeff Bezos, go to Crozet Bike Shop and pay just a little extra to support this locally owned business; you'll end up getting more than you paid for. : )

Todd even informed that he would provide free checkups as well as free pickup and delivery in Charlottesville. One doesn't find that service much anymore. The bonus was that final cost was less than Todd quoted and the bike works great. This guy knows bikes and I highly recommend Todd and BASIC CYCLES!

I called them up an asked if they had any in stock. The staff was very nice. They said they had them in 8.5 wide which is really hard to find. I went there an was totally surprised they had a bunch of Hoka Bondi shoes in stock. I could not believe I finally found a store that actually had some in stock. Would definitely recommend this store for shoes. They also have a bicycle repair shop in it.

That is above and beyond what you would expect from a business. I also appreciate the business responding to my previous experience and appreciate that they looked into it. Looking forward to giving them more of my business in the future!
