The only good thing about S&M is that they were able to get my bike started after 8 months and…read more$1,100. When i picked it up Steve only said that I have to give it a little extra throttle when starting it, however when i got it home and shut the bike off then went to restart it, it would not start. So, i called Steve and he said to me, "Oh, you have to start it either on the center stand or when the kickstand is up". This was new information to a new problem that i did not have before. Steve deceptively parked my bike on the center stand knowing that chances are that when i pick it up i will most likely start it on the center stand and not find out about it until after i pay him and get it home. I would strongly suggest to anyone who may be giving this crook their business to STOP! and go somewhere else.

Horrible experience, I got completely scammed and Steve the owner is a scam artist…read more I showed up at S&M custom cycles with my MC (motorcycle) because it was making a slight knocking sound after the cam cover was taken out and reinstalled by a friend. I understand that it could be anything and the price to repair is unknown. However, Steve the owner, came out looked at the bike and said that he could find the issue with a $200 deposit. After a week of no call I called and he said he needed to go further into the bike and it would be $$500 more. I told him to just put it back together and id pick it up. He then said to put it back together it would be $300 more. After back and forth he convinced me that he found the problem (bushings in cam cover) and he could fix it. $900 dollars later the bike was still not fixed and I was $900 more poor. Never again!!!

The Devil's Gear is a bicycle shop that opened in New Haven, Connecticut in 2001. It was founded by…read morelocal artist and cyclist Matthew Feiner. After seeing the need for a community bike shop in New Haven, Feiner used the last $600 in his bank account to open his own shop. It originally opened in a cramped old Wooster Square factory space at 433 Chapel Street. For his new shop, Feiner chose the name "The Devil's Gear" as a reference to the 1988 Paris-Nice stage race. The French press said that Irish cyclist Sean Kelly was riding "the devil's gear". In addition to selling bicycles, the shop also hosts bike tours, maintenance clinics and weekly training rides. The shop has made a number of moves over the years: first to 151 Orange Street, then down the street to 137 Orange, and finally to their current location at 845 Chapel Street. In 2018, longtime employees John Brehon and Greg Ledovsky came on board as co-owners of the shop. Feiner later stepped down due to medical reasons, but Brehon and Ledovsky continue to build on the foundation and legacy that he left behind. In 2021, Brehon and Ledovsky decided to start selling skateboards at the shop too. Local skateboarder J. Joseph came on board to handle the skateboard department. I've been doing business with the Devil's Gear for well over 10 years. When I first became interested in cycling, I went there to get all of my cycling accessories and helpful tips. I still ride a 2013 Jamis Satellite Sport road bike in a beautiful Tiger's Eye finish which I bought from the shop. I take it back to the shop every year for my annual tune-up. In addition to all of their great products and services, The Devil's Gear does a lot for the local cycling community. They have provided all of the technical support for Smilow Cancer Hospital's Closer to Free Ride for several years. I'm about to start training for my seventh consecutive CTF Ride. Whether you've been cycling for several years or you're just looking to get into cycling, you should definitely head down to The Devil's Gear!

I stumbled upon this company by some sort of search engine hijinks...I had typed in "Velofix" and…read morethe first entry to pop up on Google was "Velotooler" and the spelling was similar enough that I clicked on it carelessly while doing something else, and then I stupidly assumed that Velofix must have renamed itself. Boy, what a mistake that was. The website looks good, there is a nationwide map showing where the mechanics are available, and I found one within 15 minutes of the suburb of Boston where I live. I was pleasantly surprised to find that as per website, said mechanic was available within just 3 days (Velofix has much longer wait times, can be 1-2 weeks on average) and the service (tune up of an e-bike) was actually $30 cheaper than what Velofix wanted. Wonderful! Or so I thought. Alas, that's about where the "wonderful" part ends. First off, the damned website is glitchy as all hell---after I create an account and submit all my details (address and CC info), I hit the "Pay" button...and nothing happens. So I double-check that all my adblocking browser extensions are turned off, reload the website, and do everything all over again. Same result. Over and over again. I even try using a different browser (Chrome) and again, no luck. So I hit the "Chat" button to get help from Velotooler. Got a live person after about 30 minutes, during which time I had left my computer, so we proceeded to play chat-tag for a couple rounds. She later sent me an email follow up the next day: said sorry, but I needed to first use their "Add payment" link on my account before placing the order. Which I did, but the same thing happened...screwy website took all my info, then on the last page where there was a final "Add payment" button, again nothing happened upon clicking. At this point, Velotooler's "help" person who had been helping me simply ghosted. Now mind you, I had been totally civil and polite the whole time, never cursing, blaming her for the problem, or personalizing it. Lo and behold, I suddenly had an idea...why not try the god awful Microsoft Edge browser! And so I did, for the perhaps second time since it was foisted upon my PC. And praise da good lawdy lawd, it finally worked...payment info was finally accepted, and the work order finally went through---just "pending confirmation" from the mechanic. Problem is, a full 24 hours later, my requested appointment date/time had still not been "confirmed" by the mechanic. I sent a further chat request for help. No response, not even an acknowledgement of receipt. Another half day later, I get an email notification from Velotooler that my appointment had been cancelled and that my credit card would be refunded. With zero explanation, apology, and or any actual human response from any Velotooler support staff. Ergo, it's clear to me that Velotooler is just not ready for prime time yet. They are obviously a half-baked amateur operation, probably understaffed and underpaid, and the staff clearly under-trained. And the website designer should get a good hard kick in the ass right out the door. I'm going back to Velofix, even if I have to wait a whole week for the next available appointment and pay a little extra dough. The only reason I am giving them 2 stars instead of 1 is that they did issue a prompt refund (will have to check my credit card to make sure it does go through, my confidence in these people is pretty low as you can imagine).
