Wow. I have been looking for a new bike for a year. I have shopped in Ohio and New Jersey before coming to Firehouse Cycles. After trying out a few bikes, I found out Firehouse Cycles carried the bike and color I was interested in. Not only did I walk out with a bike I loved, but I also had the best experience at Firehouse Cycles. Buying a bike can be a huge investment, regardless of if you're getting your first bike to ride around town or looking for a top of the line race bike. So whatever your price point, you want someone who will be sensible, thoughtful, and helpful. And as with any purchase, you want to leave feeling excited, confident, and assured about your new item and the service you received. That's exactly what you'll get at Firehouse Cycles - the perfect shopping experience. I called ahead asking if they had the bike, color, and size I needed. Mike, the owner, offered to hold the bike for me for several days until I could make it out there. Mike was extremely well-informed, patient, and welcoming. I learned a lot about my new bike in the process, and felt comfortable to ask any and all questions. Within thirty minutes, my bike was ready to go fitted with all the accessories I had requested. Plus he picked water bottles and a helmet to match my new bike. This was also a great place to test ride a new bike: they have a large parking lot and quiet neighborhood around back. He offered to drive the bike to our house even though we live 40 minutes away! As you can see in other reviews, this is the norm. When I let him know this bike would be coming with me back to Cleveland, he said to never hesitate reaching out if I ever needed help with my bike. Mike also helped us pick out two bike racks for two separate cars, and even took the time to teach us how to set it up and secure our new bike. I left the shop with a huge smile on my face. I wish every shopping experience was like this. Thank you Mike and the rest of the team at Firehouse Cycles! read more

Firehouse Cycles - Specialized Sirrus 3.0 in Clay Umber - Bikes Near Me - Yardley, Pennsylvania

Yardley deserves a bike shop owner who actually supports the bike community. Mike will sell or fix a bike well enough so long as its easy for him and you don't ask any questions. If you do, all you get is an arrogant attitude. He'll tell you he's been doing this for 20 years but that's just because he happens have the only shop the market can bear. He also never supports local events, is often late opening the shop and is just generally sour. I will say his employees are great - he should run the books and leave the shop to people that actually appreciate customers and enjoy helping riders get back on their bikes. read more

Don't waste your time taking a kids bike for repair here! $36 to replace a tube. $13.25 for a the tube you can by elsewhere for $6.00. Shameful! read more

Micheal is knowledgeable, friendly, no pressure and clean and through. He's proactive and I value his craftsmanship and knowledge regarding maintaining my trail bike. read more

I came here for the first time because it was local and had good reviews. I was bringing in my bike, which I've had since 1997, for a tune up. I explained that I wanted new handlebar grips after tuning it up. They said most people ask for new pedals too and I said "no I don't want that". I have had this bike most of my life and it's special to me to keep it as close to the way it was when my dad bought it for me in 7th grade. Unless something is broken I want to keep it the way it was. I was quoted $100 for the tune up and $40 for the handlebars. The guys were super nice and I was excited. I return a week later and am asked to pay about double the amount of the quote. I question that and I'm told I needed new brakes and they replaced the pedals I asked them not to replace. I think businesses should call you and be sure it's ok to do work outside of the scope of what you asked for and price you were quoted. This was all really out of budget for me and I had explained I am a very casual rider and this bike is old and nothing expensive. He asked if I wanted the old pedals put back on and it taken off the bill. Of course I do. So now I'm waiting while that gets done which is just awkward and shouldn't have happened. I don't think I'd return here after this experience. read more

I didn't even looking at the bill. so worth it. I'm so happy. and the owner is super nice and runs his business very well it seems I definitely got lost my first time there, though....fyi, it seems like a house, just go down the driveway read more

Mike has taken our money and has had months to repair our electric bike and since he's too busy to look at it yet again , it was never working, he told me angrily to come pick it up and he wont refund the repair we paid for. STAY AWAY read more

Know that you can have confidence in Mike when you leave your bike at Firehouse Cycles, and ask that he take care of whatever it needs.

Undependable, unresponsive and fails to deliver on promises. We had been good customers, having our bikes serviced each year by Firehouse. This year not only did Mike promise to pick-up our bikes a few times and never showed, but when I went back to ask him why, he said "I have you on my list." That was in April, he hasn't showed since and we will never go back. read more

If you want to get the personal service you deserve then you need to check out this bike shop. The owners take the time to listen to your needs and find the right bike for you. It is nice to shop at a local small town bike shop. You have a warm feeling when they remember your name the next time you go into their store. read more

Firehouse Cycles - Bikes Near Me - Yardley, Pennsylvania

TL:DR. Great service! No up-charge attempts on parts. Mike does everything to make the parts you have work. If he can't, he'll offer options that are very reasonable for your bike. He's not gonna sell you a $800 dollar de-railer for a $600 bike. Most important FHC will deliver the bike the way YOU want it not the way they think it should be. Story time! I bought a Trek Liquid 30 Mountain bike 2005 to ride on Palm Desert down hill trip. Well as time and life moved on the bike got hung up and hasn't been touched in 10 years. I've attempted to take it to other bike shops to get it tuned up to attempt to ride again. The gears had started jumping when I placed any type of torque on the pedals. I've watched at least 17 hours of Youtube videos to attempt it myself and could not figure out the problem either. All the other shops that I've taken it too told me "Yep, it's ready to go! Here's the $150.00 price tag." And nothing. Nothing was really repaired aside from the obvious simple defects. Read: aired the tires, bleed the brakes. No one touched the gears aside from cycling them through on the rack. It killed any motivation I had to continue riding. Fast forward ten years later, my daughter learned how to ride. One day getting her bike out she turns to me and said "Daddy, I wish you had a bike to ride with me." I turned back to the shed where the my Trek had been stored with a new determination! I tried bike shops in Laurence, Pennington. Neither solved the problem. Enter, Firehouse Cycles. I called Mike up and gave him a list of details I wanted him to address. He said bring it in, I'll take a look and have it back in 10 days. Those 10 days were like an eternity to a 5 year old, but the result was worth more than anything. Mike suggested a couple upgrades that would make it more comfortable to ride on the street. Each offer was sensible for what I wanted. I was so comfortable with his suggestions, I ended up dropping an extra $600 adjusting and tuning my bike to what it is now. Now My daughter and I ride every day and her smile is the light of my world. Thanks Mike. read more

Absolutely disappointed and ashamed of Firehouse Cycles. My family and I came on a Saturday at 3:00, which on the website and in the voicemail they say their open which their not. No note on the door or even a notice on their website. Absolutely wasted my time. Oh and also, THEY DIDNT EVEN ANSWER THE PHONE. Seriously, what kind of business isn't open at 3:00 on a Saturday?! Don't go here, they'll just waste your time. read more

I had one the most unprofessional experiences at Firehouse Cycles and with the owner. I brought in a bike for tire/gear issue . I needed it back in time for vacation. I explained at dropoff that the bike was an inexpensive $100 bike that I did not want to spend more than the bike was worth on the repair. When we went in for pickup, the cost was well over the price of purchasing a new bike. When I explained this to the owner he became irate and stormed out of his shop telling one of his young employees to handle my payment and transaction. The owner stormed out of the shop, got on his bike and proceeded to ride around the parking lot refusing to address the situation professionally. When I went to the back with the young employee to get my bike it turns out that my bike was never worked on and they had worked on someone else's bike instead. Not only was the owner unprofessional and rude, but he put his young employees in a very uncomfortable situation that he should have dealt with himself. read more

Let me start by saying that it is rare for me to write a review. I am in the service industry and a tough grader when it comes to someone "doing their job" in my eyes. Given the experience I had yesterday with Mike, the owner, I had to make the time to write a review about FH cycles. I will start by saying that I am from CT and randomly reached out to Mike to see if he had a specific bike that I have been looking for (months of looking and 20 wait lists). As you know you can't get bikes easily and I was told by many including the bike company that I shouldn't expect it until August. I wanted it for my son's Xmas gift/ or Birthday. (End of Jan). Mike had just received 2 of them and was willing to hold one for me while I confirmed with my son and husband it was the right bike and then we could make the trip down to pick it up. (It was about 2.5 hours away). Once confirmed that it was the correct bike, I asked if he would ship it since he was 2.5 hours away. Mike said that it would be very expensive to ship and he would be willing to meet me so that I didn't have to drive as far. WOW!!! Was all that went through my head. And then it was so nice I thought this was a scam. He was willing to ship if I really wanted to but we took him up on his offer and met him the next day. Again, I was worried there were going to be hidden fees, something. No way can there be a store owner this nice. He had the bike everyone wanted, why was he helping me get it?!?! Nope, just a super nice guy wanting to do the right thing for my son's 14th bday. The moral of the review is this: here is someone who knew he wasn't going to get a long term regular customer (2.5 hours away) but he went out of his way to be an awesome person! He wasn't in it for the sale, he is a store owner that cares about the person, his customer. Anyone reading this, please go to this store and get your bikes, accessories, services from Mike!!!! He is a really standout person! If you are reading this, Thanks Mike!!!! PS: it wasn't like he had to do this to get rid of the bike. While he was putting my together someone walked in and bought the second one that was still in the box! read more

Mike is the man. Since moving to the area in 2017, he has provided regular maintenance and repair services for my bike. Additionally, he has ordered in different accessories that I was looking for online - specific GPS, gloves and bike rack. Beyond this, he has been very flexible with times I can pick up my bike, which is helpful for me as I am not always free during normal business hours due to work. Much recommended! read more

It's always an easy and pleasurable experience when at Firehouse. Mike and the staff are knowledgeable and helpful no matter what you are there for. They are very charitable in the community and support so many others. Their building is so unique! Definitely check them out! read more

A couple of years ago I purchased a bike from Firehouse after having met the owner (Mike) over the course of a few group road rides. I've had the bike in the shop for a few minor adjustments and tune-ups over the past two years without problem, and I've bought some other items from the shop as well - also without issue. But today I brought in my bike after I screwed up the pedal threads on one of the crank arms. I fully expected to be going in to buy a new crankset, and losing the use of my bike for a week or two while I waited for the parts. Instead, Mike stopped what he was working on and re-threaded the crank with a tap and installed the pedal for me. At no charge. Mike's prices can't compete with online shops, but no website I've ever come across has been able to do what a few tools in a pair of capable hands can. read more

Went in for a bike repair. Very quick fix (within 24 hours) even given how busy it was. Everyone was very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful!

Mike is a class act! Great service, top of the line bikes and accessories, as well as the compassion for the customer to get what he/she wants! He built me my dream bike from Specialized and we custom ordered and installed all of the parts exactly the way I specified. Without hesitation I recommend you to go to Firehouse Cycles to repair your existing bike, or build your dream bike. read more

I have purchased 3 bikes (and likely many more in the future), and countless accessories from Mike, and am in the store regularly. He, and team, do an awesome job ensuring needs are met. He's extremely generous with his time and is willing to help fix any problem. I've shopped/received service at most of bike shops in the area, and prefer going to Mike. Plus, he's a specialized dealer - which is my favorite bike company. Strongly recommend going to Firehouse. read more

I went in to Firehouse Cycles trying purchase my first bike (crossing over from marathon running to triathlons) after doing research for several months. I was having a difficult time choosing a bike because of the size (I am in between sizes) and everyone knows that a good fit is important. I ended up putting down a $500 deposit to order a Specialized bike that evening and left happy with my decision. However, I went home to do some more research and started to question my decision. So I called the next morning as soon as the store opened, trying to ask a few more q's before he had the bike shipped to the store. Instead, I sensed that the owner/salesman, Mike, was losing patience as he mentioned that I was 'wasting his and my time.' I'm sorry, but when I'm about to drop $4000 on a bike and necessary gear, I'm going to have a few questions. I ended up leaving work early to see if I could go in and test the model bike one more time before the bike was sent to his store. At that moment, he said 'I don't have time for this, you can have your money back.' You don't have time for this? The 3 separate times I went to your store in the past 2 months, I saw one customer inside. The first time I was there, I sensed your unwillingness to help me and I should have never gone back again, but I did. I understand that many of your consumers go in and purchase bikes in cash since it is located in an affluent area, but don't judge a book by their cover. The questions asked and being able to sit on a bike again was something important to me, especially since it was my first bike, but you dismissed me immediately with an arrogant attitude. Will never shop here again. UPDATE 2/2/14 in response to owners response: First and foremost, thank you for admitting you were wrong. However, some of your responses were a little...interesting. 1 - "After the fitting process, and having a Specialized representative also check your fit" - there was no formal fitting process compared to what I have experienced at several other stores. All I did was sit on the bike and you said it looked fine. As for your Specialized representative, he came in to the store about 10 minutes after my arrival and just saw me sit on the bike as well. Maybe that is all that is needed with 17 years experience of selling bikes, but I definitely felt that more attention to detail was made at other stores I have visited in PA and NJ. 2 - "I started the process of getting the bicycle for you which involved contacting multiple shops and having a representative drive to get the bike for you ASAP. " - You found the bike I needed after talking to me on the phone, BEFORE I ever came in to the store, not because I put the deposit down. The reason why I visited your store was because you told me on the phone that you found the bike I wanted and could have it to me in less than a week. 3 - "I apologize that I could not extend a further discount with you as requested." - This review had nothing to do with the additional $50 discount. In the end, I put down a deposit to purchase the Shiv Elite. This comment is irrelevant and like I said, do not judge a book by its cover. 4 - "I understood I had not earned your trust and I suggested, impatiently, that you should pickup your deposit." - You did not 'suggest' that I pick up my deposit, you flat out told me 'I don't have time for this, you can have your money back' after I asked a few more questions. The main point of this review was that the salesmanship on your behalf was extremely poor. And from reading other negative reviews here on Yelp, such as Lori P. from Newtown, I would have to agree that your level of patience is non-existent. Yes, I did have another deposit down at another store. I waited a month for that bike and the delivery date got pushed back. I became very nervous as I have a race coming up that I needed to train for, so I started to look around for my other choice, the Shiv Elite. In the end, it looks like we both learned a valuable lesson: patience. read more

PROS: Good shop, lots of high end selections. Also carry midrange bikes. Specialized Bikes are mainly what they carry along with Specialized gear. Layout is nice, lots to look at considering the space. Knowledgeable staff is a plus, willing to talk and give advice. CONS: Pricey - MSRP only. If you need something for cheap go somewhere else. read more

Mike is top notch. Great service, knowledgeable, excellent mechanic, and all around good guy. He has always helped me out in a pinch and is all about getting people on bikes. Also always employs a couple high school kids that do a great job. read more

I had a bad experience with this shop after spending thousands with him on three bikes for me and my family. Mike suggested a bike for my son and when my son was uncomfortable with the type of bike, Mike wouldn't even consider exchanging the bike for another. He was quite rude and indignant about it. I was shocked especially after spending so much money there. My son rode the bike maybe 40ft, no wear and tear, no damage. To make matters worse, the owner Mike Joseph went to my business facebook page and gave me a bad rating although he's never done business with me. Very unprofessional and spiteful read more

For a small shop these guys really pack it in. They stock a full range of products and accessories, and the shop is still very tidy and organized. The owners are super friendly, and service is fast and affordable. I popped in just before closing one day with a flat tire and a previously purchased tube. The guy at the shop took the tube, examined the tire, popped on a new rim strip, and had the new tire inflated within a few minutes for about $10. Glad I gave them a try- I'll be going there for all my bike tune-ups now. read more

Great place to buy a bike. Mike the owner is very nice and very helpful. When we bought my wife's bike. He brought the bike to my house in his personal car when I had know way to get it home. How many owners would do that after you buy a bike. This is the place to buy a bike or parts read more

First time I stopped in the store, I purchased a Specialized Rockhopper Pro Evo 650. Mike, the owner, suggested a few bikes for my needs and price range. He allowed a test drive of a bike similar to what I was interested in. Fitted & ordered the bike late Tuesday afternoon (small deposit required) was riding the bike by dinner Friday night (from Firehouse to the Continental). Saturday Morning was the true maiden tour. Rode Jersey-side canal from Washington's Crossing to Lambertville-New Hope and back; with a few off-road excursions. The bike exceeded my expectations for handling. I had to make NO adjustments to seat height, brakes, derailer, wheel track... I have dealt with the other well-known shop in the area since I was 12. Have never had this type of attention to detail of service. Added Plus- plays great music in the background! See you again soon! read more

I went to Firehouse Cycles for a new tube and to replace a pump that had been sold to me by the owner of Newtown Bike Shop. That pump did not fit my bike valve and consequently ruined the tube. The service at Newtown was so bad (rude!) I didn't even want to go back to return the pump. Patrick at Firehouse in Yardley couldn't have been nicer. He, and another young worker, replaced the tube and put it on my bike for a great price and sold me an appropriate pump. He even put the bike in my car for me. Friendly, courteous service. My new bike shop. Yay. read more

So helpful! I came in just needing a box to ship my bike. Not only did he give me a box perfect for my bike's shape, but he disassembled and securely packaged it with stuffing to make sure it will survive the journey. Highly recommend. read more

This shop is in my home town and I've been in a few times to browse. No one in the shop has ever acknowledged me, or asked if I needed assistance. I opted for Sourland Cycles in Hopewell for my maintenance and supplies. read more

owner doesn't think it is important to close business during epidemic. so he is getting two stars for this uncaring action and not due to his service which is about a three star rating. read more

Very pleased with my visit they were very helpful and actually much more helpful than the place that I had purchased the bike. I needed a part ordered from SRAM and they ordered it on a Thursday and I had it by the next Monday. I felt as if they were very knowledgeable and wanted to make new customers all around a good experience read more

The experience I had during a transaction with the owner of Firehouse Cycles was a negative one. A business owner showing his frustration by using profanity when speaking with a customer and then storming out of the store, leaving his teen employees to handle the remainder of the transaction, is not what a patron should ever experience. The reaction from the business owner was unprofessional and ultimately cost him our business forever. read more

I have bought 6 bikes from Firehouse Cycles over the past 5 years and I can tell you that the experience has been fantastic. Mike and his team always spend a lot of time with me and my family to assist us with making the right decisions based upon our needs. Whenever we have any issues with the bikes Mike and his team are always quick to assist us with fixing them and sometimes free of charge! I am an avid bike rider and have visited many stores over the years throughout PA, NJ & NY and can tell you that it's hard to find a quality bike store with people who really know their stuff and have tremendous customer service as well. Keep up the great job guys! read more

Mike and his team know their business. They have a terrific selection of bikes for all ages and their customer service is outstanding. My wife an I have bought 5 bikes from them and expect to add to the collection as our needs /style change. They have certainly earned our trust and remember to ride safely and get your tune-ups once a year. read more

Today I was 25 miles from home when I lost a spoke. Mike from Firehouse Cycles gave me a loaner wheel and got me back on the road in no time. This is not the first time FC guys helped me in a middle of a long ride. They sell and support full range of bikes (tri, road, and off road). Thank you Mike and Russ! read more

This owner is a real GEM! He is knowledgeable, very kind and friendly. We bought a bike from him; it's great. We have brought bikes to him to fix too; excellent work. read more

I just had a great shopping experience at Firehouse Cycles, Yardley..Was looking for a rack and storage basket for my new bike..Mike was really helpful in showing me what was available...he was friendly and accommodating.. but the clincher was that he said bike could be ready on Saturday..my bike ride was Sunday. I had gone to another shop in Morrisville the day before..owner couldn't promise the that rack could be installed on saturday. He said he would be very busy that day. I think this is called good customer service...Sally, Yardley, PA read more

Don't waste countless hours looking at bikes online, trying to pick a brand, let alone a model and size. Just stop by Firehouse. Mike answered all my questions. Most which, in hindsight were no where near as important as the info he offered and the test rides. He helped me pick a bike, went out of his way to get me the specific model I wanted. I spent almost double my original budget and couldn't be happier. read more

Second year I have taken a bike in for an annual 'Tune Up'. First year No Problems, a good experience. This year picked up my bike this weekend and when i got it home and examined it I found that areas of the frame were not even dusted or cleaned, my 'Cats Eye' computer was loose and in a different location on the handle bar, bell was also in a different position. The seat was repositioned for someone who was much taller than I'am. Most importantly the chain 'chatter' and slippage I experienced before the 'tune up' was again evident on my first ride despite re-assurances by the young mechanic that the 'tune up' will have taken care of the issue. Although, the loose Cats Eye and bell may seem trite the fact of the matter is after spending almost $80.00 for a tune up my expectation was that I would just have to get on the bike and enjoy riding rather than spend time re-adjusting the bike. Chain adjustments were evidently not completed to specifications. Very disappointed in the service. read more
