And then I bought a BIKE from Igor! My bike was stolen, so back I go to Igor. He's got a lot of refurbished used bikes that would be good for any level. He's also now a dealer of NEW Brooklyn Bikes - which is a great brand! I had been looking at these online, and when I heard Igor stocked them, it was a no brainer. I got a sweet 3-speed step-thru Franklin, by Brooklyn bike. Love it, it rides great, and will be bringing it back for tuneups to Igor. I'm now fully: #igordoesmybikeNATION !! read more

Igor Does My Bike - She's a beauty! And rides GREAT!!!! - Bikes Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Back in Massachusetts, I got a flat tire; the tube was replaced, and the bike ran fine; it became flat again in a couple months. I took it to a different shop. When third-time-a-charm flat rolled (flattened?) around, I tried replacing the tube myself. Guess what? Flat again! I thought I did a poor job, and brought it to Igor's for repair. A cross-country move had also tangled my chain and possibly wreaked other havoc, so professional repair was needed. I don't remember what the part is called, but the reason for my recurring flats was a protective liner between the tube and the spokes. Had one of the previous two shops caught it, I wouldn't have been saddled (pun not intended) with constant flats! In terms of the other damage, Igor untangled the chain and then did a fantastic job showing me what needed service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]At drop off, it was the flat (obv), and a derailleur hanger. Other items would need work eventually (worn chain, gears, general tune-up), but as I only asked to make the bike safe, and not brought to like-new, these were more of an FYI, and no pressure was involved.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Finally, what sealed the deal for me isn't that Igor noticed an issue two previous shops didn't, but that when the bike was being worked on, the mechanic realized the derailleur hanger could be bent back into shape, and didn't need to be replaced. It would have been easy to replace the part, bill the parts and labor, and I would have been none-the-wiser. Yet, honesty like this deserves recognition and praise. With this, Igor's just cemented a customer for life (unless I move out of Chicago). With a bike that is ~15 years old, and maintenance items I know there will be other repairs and maintenance items needed. read more

I happened upon this bike shop last summer causally strolling from Uptown to Edgewater for lunch. My finance and I stopped to check out the inventory of bikes available. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Staff were super friendly and knowledgeable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] While we didn't make a purchase that day I knew we'd be back. Fast forward, both of us eventually purchased a bike! It made sense since we enjoyed using the Divvy bikes but agreed that they can be expensive! Besides, I became increasingly interested in commuting to work via bike. Go visit Igor and his staff and support your local bike shop! I highly recommend it (: read more

My July 4th weekend bike ride almost ended before it began when my front tire blew out. Despite the sweltering heat, I was determined to get back on the road. I headed to Igor Does My Bike, mistakenly thinking they were open until 6:00 PM based on a text. I arrived at 5:30 PM to find the shop closed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But then, a stroke of luck! I saw someone inside, tapped on the window, and out came Peter. Even though the shop had closed at 5:00 PM, he generously asked what was wrong.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When I told him about my blown tire, he immediately said, "No worries, I'll fix it for you!" [[HIGHLIGHT]]Peter, you're a lifesaver and truly embody the spirit of Igor Does My Bike.

My most recent experiences with Igor's competent work - and exceptionally quick turn-around for repairs - has inspired me to leave another 5-star review here. I can only hope that Yelp's designation my previous enthusiastic review as "not recommended" won't carry forward to this one also. I don't know why they do that. That designation by Yelp is not fair to me, a customer who has taken time to let other customers know of my satisfaction with his work. It's not fair to possible new customers of his who need to know if he does good work. And it's not fair to Igor, who has spent over a decade as a private independent bike mechanic providing the service in his new bike shop. Anyway, for those who may find my review, please understand that year after year I have found him to be a top notch bike mechanic - and is as friendly and honest as one might ever hope to find. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Awesome shop! Had to search around to try and find a shop that could fix a headset[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Found great reviews in Igor's and they seemed experienced from what I read.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Shop is about 1/2 hour away so I had to drive the bike there as the issue was unrideable. They were able to diagnose a a very specific headset issue that another shop could not. It was missing a very specific shim. Very knowledgeable bike people. Great people, great service at a great price, what else could you want? Highly recommend and will be using for all my bike needs in the future. read more

Igor came to an event for free bike servicing and did a wonderful job. Explained all the fixes needed and budget conscious options too!

Igor and his team are amazing! I needed a black 700c wheel with black spokes, and his shop was literally the only bike shop that had it from Old Town to Highland Park. Great customer service, super fast repairs, and this is now my go-to shop. Glad I found it!!! read more

I was in a bike accident last fall and when I decided I was ready to ride again I took my mangled mess to Igor last week. He expertly checked the frame for fractures and stress and all other parts of the bike for damage. Luckily the frame was sound and the other issues were minor. I had a basic tune-up and took my first ride this afternoon. It's like brand new! Igor offers great expertise with friendly service. Go check out the new shop. He has a great selection of refurb bikes at very reasonable prices along with a good selection of accessories. read more
