MTB Custom Builds - Happy ebike - Bike Repair/Maintenance Near Me

Contacted MTB custom builds last week as I needed to have a fork swapped out asap. Every bike shop around ( except for one which I didn't call ) was booked up for at least 2 weeks. I was quoted $100 ( $50-$60 more) than what a shop would charge but I needed this done asap. We sent up a time and he was actually 30 mins early. Everything went smooth except for the hub end caps Santa Cruz uses for their Rockshox fork is different from the Fox 34 I had. Sameer ( the owner who came ) told me he sees this all the time. I tried calling a few shops close by but nobody had a smaller end cap in stock and I needed to order them from SRAM. My thoughts were, if the owner sees this all the time, why not carry them with you if you are a mobile bike repair business? Sameer then told me that I should order them and contact him and he will drive back out to me to complete the build. I said ok. So he left. Determined to get this done, I called the 1 shop I didn't call prior ( The Cyclery Bike shop in La Mirada) and they told me to come down right now and they will get this taken care of me. I brought it down to them and they took the oversized end caps off ( Sameer didn't ) and was able to swap everything out and also able to set up the Fork for me. Took about an hour but they only charged me $25!!! I would highly recommend them. As far as this particular business, I took 1 star off for the price ( I get it that he's mobile and drives to you ). Yes, my fault for agreeing too and another star for still charging me full price and not actually completing the job or having the parts needed. If you see this all the time, you should have the parts as I told you exactly what bike I had and what forks I'm swapping out. Sameer did refund me $20 when I told him that another shop got everything taken care of for me. This is for the 3rd star. So $80 to come to me, take my Rockshox off and put the Fox's on without actually completing the job. Total of 20 mins. Not worth it. read more

This experience was by far one of the most uncomfortable and frustrating that I have had seeking out professional services. My story: I have an electric bicycle (Super 73) that I needed a simple tune-up and I also had purchased a 10-speed kit for the bike that I needed installed. The 10-speed kit is not overly complicated, came with instructions including step by step video instructions, but I didn't have any of the tools and thought I'd like an expert to get it right. I found someone with a comment specifically saying he helped them with my exact bike so I reached out to him. How it went: He assured me he had experience working on E-bikes and specifically my brand of bike, had installed a 10-speed kit before on them, and it was not a problem. He was quick to respond, and showed up the same day on time. Where it all went wrong: He spent a long time doing the tune-up before getting started on the 10-speed kit. After some time he came in and said he didn't have a tool he needed to install the kit so he had to run out to a bike shop. I was easy going, no problem and said no worries. He came back after a long time and started working again. When he came back, he was visibly frustrated, he had obviously been smoking weed (not that I care unless it affects your work), and when he started working was being much rougher with his tools. In addition he asked me for MORE money because the install was harder than he had anticipated. He also needed my help which again I had no problem helping, even though I thought I was paying for his services. After he left, I had to clean up all his trash and pick up the old parts he had left in my driveway. The big stuff: He was smacking the frame with a hammer to make it fit, he dragged the bars on the concrete because he was banging so hard, he removed too many links in the chain I had bought, and basically made the bike unridable because the chain was too short to go through the gears. I tried to amicably discuss my dissatisfaction with the work and with the fact that he had self admitted to making a mistake with the chain. I also pointed out that I had specifically asked him to be careful with the paint and frame of my bike as I was working on it being a project bicycle. He didn't even acknowledge that part, but he said he would replace my chain and finish the work that next day. In addition to that, he had taken one of the gears of the 10-speed kit and thrown it away in a bush (I assume because he was struggling so much to get it in) and installed it with one less gear than it came with. This made the 10-speed cassette loose and with room to slide within the wheel. I was stunned when I found it and had to ask a neighbor who was a bicycle patrol police officer to help me uninstall the cassette, add the gear back on, and then reinstall the whole thing. I said I was uncomfortable with having paid him for what amounted to him ruining the kit I had bought and making the bike unrideable. He tried to tell me I could ride it, "just don't use the gears." He did come back the next day, with the wrong size chain again. He frankensteined two chains together (still leaving it one link too long) and when I again stated that he basically broken the specific chain for my kit and then replaced it with an incorrect sized chain, he said he would again be back to replace it with the correct chain. He never came back. The worst service, the worst work, and honestly the man should feel ashamed. Even after pointing out all his mistakes, him charging more than he quoted, and after admitting how bad he messed up, he tried to tell me I had to buy a new chain myself and then he would fix it which was the final straw. And obviously he never came back to finish the job and just took the money and ran. I have never written a review like this because I've never been treated like this. He is bad at his job, he will rip you off, and he has no shame in doing it. I hope this review keeps you from experiencing what I did. read more

I had the opportunity to work with Ali today. Requested a quote on Yelp and immediately I receive it from him. I would give him 10 stars if I could. He showed up on time.

Ali, showed up right on schedule to fix our flat in no time! Great guy, great service! Thank you!!!

Friendly and knowledgeable bike mechanic. The real value is in the fact they drive out to you without you having to worry about transporting your bike to and from a bike shop. Everything is done on your property. His quote for me was the same as I was getting from local bike shops where I'd have to bring my bike to them. Definitely worth the price for the time and convenience you'll save. read more

Nice enough guy - but found out that the going rate for mobile bike repair is between $65 and $85 per hour. He charged me $300 for 25 minutes of work. Buyer beware. I blame myself for not shopping around more than I do him - but still. A total rip-off. read more

Ali responded quickly when I inquired about fixing the flat tire on my electric bike. He was upfront about the cost, which was the average price I'd been quoted.

I was impressed with his knowledge and efficiency. I'm happy to say Ali got me back on the road and I will definitely be using him for all my bike needs. read more

repaired my stationary bike. they were very efficient and friendly. My bike operates like it's brand new.

I don't like to write reviews but if you have an ebike consider service elsewhere. No need to get into details. The man was responsive and on time. He didn't do work on my bike so at least the man knows his limits. Which is saying something to be certain. read more

Ali was incredible! He was kind enough to fit us in for a same day tune up of mine and my mother's bikes. He was pretty fast and very communicative about what exactly he was fixing so we were aware of what previous issues were and how his repairs would prioritize our safety and ease of use. He went above and beyond with how thorough he was with the tune ups and explained how we can ensure the quality and longevity of our bikes on our own. I highly recommend Ali! read more
