Overall this is a great bike shop on the south shore. Very fair prices and the owner is really nice. I dropped my bike for a summer tune up and there was a bit of a wait so it took a week but it's riding better than ever and it was a really fair price for the work! Would recommend here for bike Maintnence and looks like it could be a good spot to buy a new or used bike as well. read more

They went through bikes With my wife and I for at least 1 hr. Very nice people! Did not feel rushed or pushed into a sale! Prices seemed fair.we will be back.. read more

Great experience! Called on Monday- bike chain/ sprocket broke- had an upcoming bike trip that weekend. He took a look , gave me an estimate said he could have it ready by Thursday so I wouldn't miss out on my ride- called Wednesday- it was ready a day early and under the estimate! Glad I have found a new bike shop!! read more

I struggled all season with my gear shifting- I had brought it back several times to another place and they couldn't fix it- I had almost given up until a friend (who was a bike mechanic when he was younger) suggested I go see Dave. He is excellent! Problem solved, made good suggestions on what to do now or wait on... fair price! My bike will only be serviced by Rockland Cycle going forward.... read more

Dave is always helpful and will take the time to listen and find what you need. Fair and honest with time and pricing, I wouldn't trust my bike to anyone else. read more

Best of the best bike repair shop. Got an older Cannondale Lefty tuned up here and it rides like a dream. The guy running the shop is supremely knowledgeable and does great work. read more

Wonderful service! This is a nice privately owned shop with good service. I highly recommend them. Very nice owner.

Dave at Rockland Cycle is knowledgeable, capable, accommodating, a genuine PRO. He has serviced my bike over several years. Always excellent suggestions and solutions. Amazingly when he promises at date he deliveries. From my experience with bike shops on the South Shore and in general Dave stands head and shoulders above the crowd. Smart, Fairly priced, clever, informed, easy to communicate with. read more

I came in with my 5 year old to get him his second bike. The gentleman in the store was fixing another bike, but he wiped his hands of grease to help us. He showed us the perfect bike, then adjusted the handlebars and put on training wheels. He also gave me tips on how to teach my son to ride without training wheels. My son played with some of his tools while he did this. When I asked about their snow bikes, he told me about how they were riding them all winter. So nice to see a shop run by true enthusiasts. read more

EXCELLENT. Dave is knowledgeable, clever, an excellent communicator. Having serviced my bike in several bike shops over the years I can say without hesitation the Dave stands with the best of the best on the South Shor read more

Helped me out with two surprise repairs on my bike last weekend. I was a walk-in and planned on just dropping it off but I was helped immediately while I waited with my 3yo. This was great because we wanted to go for a ride that day and our plans weren't affected!! I was in and out, great service and very reasonable price!! Thank you!! read more

Wow, what a great cycle shop. Not so much because of the inventory or the gear available, but because of the owner. It's been a long time since I stopped into a shop where the owner is running the show AND happens to be a racer (cross-country). He spent almost two hours talking about everything under the sun and gave me useful input on tires (he's tried them all pretty much). I've never had someone whip out digital calipers and scales to give me an in-depth analysis of a tire while simultaneously explaining how it performed in actual race conditions. Rumor has it he's quite the wheel builder and can cobble together great wheels for any purpose (by his own admission of course haha). However, two customers that wandered in confirmed that he'd built them good wheels and they were quite happy. Given his extensive workshop, stories, and his name plastered on many quality wheels throughout the shop I have no reason to doubt it. Negatives? Well, it's a small shop with limited bikes and inventory, but he assures you he can get whatever your heart desires for minimal costs if you need it. Other than this I'm really reaching. In summary-if you need a wrench to take care of your bike and you're serious about cycling you need to seek this guy out. He officially gets my vote for "best bicycle shop to deal with" award for eastern Massachusetts. read more

One of the best bike shops in MA! Full of local character. If you are looking for an honest mechanic look no further. Dave is the sole guy who runs the shop and he has the soul of a true biker. Dave's prices are often better than the competition and he can beat the internet prices on certain items too. Come by if you want to talk bikes for an hour with someone who loves to ride as much as the next guy. Dave won't try to sell you the latest and greatest thing, instead he will work with you and your budget to get you a quality item. I've had him talk me out of going with a more expensive item when there is something cheaper that works just as well. Small shop, but Dave has no problems with getting items to his shop right away. He works on everything from XC bikes, to road bikes, to downhill bikes, to BMX bikes. Definitely check this shop out! 5/5. read more

This place is great! The owner Dave is knowledgeable about street riding and off road riding as well. He puts a lot of personal attention into each customer and is solid repairman. I recommend this shop to anyone that has or is looking for a bicycle. read more

I've been a customer of Dave's off and on since 2003. I used to ride BMX, and bought many replacement parts from him, as well as receiving solid advice. I stopped riding my BMX bike seriously about 6 years ago (kids and all that), but recently wanted to get back on a bike. Dave remembered me by name even after not being a regular for several years. Dave sold me a 29" Fuji mountain bike, and gave me some valuable pointers on my new bicycling adventure. -The prices are spot on. -The selection covers entry level, all the way up to some pretty expensive machines. -Dave may not have a whole store full of expensive parts (it's a small shop), but he knows his stuff, stocks the most common items/parts, and can get you anything you want in a reasonable amount of time. -Dave won't sell you something you don't need. I watched him try to talk a guy out of replacing a $1000 wheelset for his road bike, when all he needed was new bearings... -There are always top-notch, expensive bikes in the shop for service and upgrade. People (myself included) trust Dave's high level of expertise. -Dave is a RIDER. He has many bikes of his own (MTB and Road), and likely has a personal opinion of whatever part you're asking about because he's USED it. Dave is a one man shop. Service can take a little while to complete, but rest assured that it is worth the wait. I'm a life long customer. I will only shop at Rockland Cycle. read more

This is an awesome place. The owner is friendly, knowledgeable and doesn't upsell. Definitely recommend this place!

I would like to add to the other amazing reviews... Whenever we, or more importantly, my sons' have issues with their bikes, they go straight to Dave. Dave's level of service is A+. I have witnessed this on numerous occasions, he goes above and beyond, treating kids with dignity, taking the time to discuss their bikes, makes suggestions, etc., even when it is clear he is up to his eyeballs in work. Goes without saying...we as a family highly recommend Rockland Cycle! read more

The guy who owns the place was really friendly and got my brakes replaced in no time. I highly recommend this place! read more

I went to see Dave @ Rockland Cycle yesterday morning on a recommendation from a friend. My bike was in need of some adjustment so I could ride this weekend. Dave said bring it on in I can do it right now! Awesome guy, excellent rates. There aren't many business owners these days who are old school like this guy. I look forward to being a customer for life. Thank you Dave! read more

Whether you're buying a $30 standard quick-release front wheel (me) or custom-built wheels worth hundreds (some other guy), the owner, Dave, treats you with equal care and attention. It's true that the inventory is small since it is such a tiny shop, but Dave CAN get you anything. And as an added bonus, he'll always tell you if a cheaper product does the job just as well as a more expensive item. Dave hand builds wheels under his name brand, Letourneau (his last name). They've been ridden in big-name races all around the country, and apparently cost a fraction of some of the fastest wheels out there (so says Dave, though I do believe him). Hidden gem, indeed! read more

What a great business to deal with!! I just took a friend over to have the flat tire on her bike repaired. It was done in no time at all. The gentleman was kind enough to lift the bike out of my Jeep and put it back in when the work was finished. Really excellent service. And very reasonable cost too. read more

Wonderful experience! Bought a bike here and am so happy with it. In spite of how busy he was, the owner took time to explain things to me and to tune up the bike before a I took it for a test run. Awesome service! Highly recommend! read more

Dave is amazing I have had many last min issues with my bike and he is always willing to fix it so quickly. Talk to him about what you want and he will find you the best deal around. And most of all he will always has the time to stop what he is doing and have a good chat. My go to bike mechanic . As a woman cyclist who does not know about the mechanics of it all, I would trust him 100%. read more

The only thing worse than a music store dude, is a bike store dude. None of that here. Cheerful, quick, efficient and the price is right. Right on, Rockland Cycle! read more

Great bike shop... Im new to the whole cycling world and that being said I really dont know anything about bikes IE when something breaks. The problem with most bike shops is they tend to be a bit rude to people who are newbies. If you fall into this category I really recommend you go here. The guy that works there is really helpfull and wont sell on something you really dont need (which is another problem with most bike stores I have been too). Turned out my bike just needed a simple adjustment and he sent me on my way. Defintly coming back if I need anything else for my bike. Five stars for sure. read more

Had a small wipe out last week. Could have been bad, but just the hanger for the derailer bent. Dave replaced it quickly, gave the bike an alignment. The bike is shifting better than is was prior to the wipe out. The price of labor and parts was very good. Thanks Dave! read more

A previous review described this place as a hidden gem which is a perfect description. I bought my first bike at one of the better known bike shops on the south shore. Overall a pretty decent experience but repairs and tuneups were pretty $$$ there. A friend told me about Rockland Cycle and I've been getting my bike serviced there since. I also bought another 2 bikes there and have referred several people. All of us have had a great experience. No question this is the best place to get your bike tuned up or serviced. And if you're going to spend money on a new bike definitely shop around but make sure you stop in and talk to Dave. You'll be happy you did. read more

Fast and friendly service! I brought in my son's bike for a new rear tire, had it replaced and ready to go for him in less than two hours - all with a fair price tag! read more

I brought in my bike for a tune-up, and it rides better than brand new, now. I was unaware how loose the cables and spokes were fresh out of the shop I purchased it from in Boston. When I brought it in, he did a quick assessment of the bike's condition, and explained to me in detail what he was going to do to tune-up my bike, with excitement in his voice. Really nice guy that's not going to nickel and dime you. read more

You literally cannot go wrong with Rockland Cycles. As everyone else on this page has stated, Dave is any cyclist's dream. He's the most honest, down-to-earth, and knowledgeable mechanic you'll ever meet. When it was time for a new mountain bike, I spent weeks talking with him and trying out different bikes to find just the right one for my budget/riding style and words cannot describe how happy I've been with the bike. I did have an issue with a malfunction in the fork. Dave not only fixed it, but personally called the manufacturer and got them to give him the part free of charge to save me a bunch of cash. I grew up in the area and started a cycling/tri team at my high school which he actively sponsored, giving team members discounts on bikes/gear. This was a HUGE help because, when getting high school kids into cycling, the investment of the bike is usually the biggest hurdle. He really helped us out in every way possible, contributing to the community as a whole. Since he runs the shop himself, occaisionally it will take an extra day or two for him to finish working on my bike but the quality of service is so unbeatable, I don't mind waiting at all. Dave is a true friend and member of the local community. Whether you are a racer looking for high end custom wheels and pro-level service or just someone who enjoys the occaisional spin, Dave will help you out and you will leave smiling. I have tried almost all the shops in the surrounding area, and would never consider going anywhere else after I found "RRRRRRockland Cycles". (you'll know what I mean if you call :) read more

I took my 6 year old Fuji hybrid to Rockland Cycle in Rockland MA where it was repaired parts and labor for $65.00 Dave is the knowledgeable owner of this excellent shop. He provides great customer service and product. I plan on investing in a new road bike from him this spring. read more

If I could give Rockland Cycle more stars, I would. Why is this shop head and shoulders above the rest? Simply put, it's the owner. In addition to being a very high quality individual who has the utmost in integrity, Dave has figured out what most somehow can't. He treats the customer with respect and arms them with the information and knowledge they need to make a decision. His prices are very fair and his work is second to none. In my opinion, Dave is the best wrench in the area and maybe all of New England and knows more about bikes than anyone else I have come across. He treats every project or repair with the utmost importance and attention to detail. Dave once told me that the customer buying the $200 bike expects the same level of service as the customer buying the $5k race bike. Imagine that! Rockland Cycle is not a shop with hundreds of bikes in inventory but don't be fooled by that. He will work with you to put you on a bike that is right for you at a great price. If it's just service, repairs or components you need, you can't do better anywhere. It's no wonder that many serious riders bring their bikes to Rockland for service. Every once in a while, I stray off the beaten path and visit other bike shops in the area and I almost always leave being disappointed. Don't be disappointed. Visit BikeshopDave at Rockland Cycle and experience what a bike shop should be. read more

Searched out bike stores on the South Shore to find the one with the best reviews, and landed on Rockland Cycle with stellar reviews on maintenance, sales, tech advice and employee expertise. I'm a firm believer that the bike store you deal with determines overall purchase satisfaction and maintenance over time, therefore I chose the bike store first, then focussed on the bike brand that would carry the components I was interested in. The owner, Dave, was personable, knowledgeable and professional. He researched the mountain bikes available and called me with a recommendation for a product with the specified components. Within a week, he ordered, built and presented the bike for a test ride. I test rode the bike, and after Dave shortened the saddle post and changed the saddle for me, I was set to go. I landed on a Scott Scale 960 and was not disappointed. The care with which the bike was assembled is evident by the smooth shifting and component capabilities. Dave spent significant time with me both over the phone and in his shop and I believe I got the best product available for the money. Dave has also offered free labor until 2020 on future maintenance, which is great customer service. I also know that I can call Dave with any questions or concerns in the future, as he is approachable, friendly and ever so eager to assist in any biking regard. I was thrilled to have found Rockland Cycle and meet Dave, and I highly recommend this shop for anyone interested in quality bikes and outstanding shopping experience. Bravo Rockland Cycle!!!

Great prices and excellent repair work. The owner is friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend this place to anyone from a very beginner to a seasoned pro. read more

Neighbor kid (9 years old) had his hand-me-down bike trashed by local fools (I'm being kind). Bent rear wheel, twisted handle bars etc. I received an honest estimate, quick service, and excellent advice about the next size bike he should have. Would recommend to all. If your older and remember where the STRAND Theater was in Rockland; Dave is 3 doors north of the Strand, now parking lot. read more

Dave is a wonderful guy, I originally came to his shop by mistake. I had intentions of going to another shop, but I had setup my GPS and became lost--I ended up at Rockland Cycle. I thank the creator for having a stupid GPS because I landed in the shop of the right individual. Besides being a knowledgeable dedicated professional, he is a genuine human being. In addition to his sign saying closed that day, his door was open and Dave accommodated me with placing my first road bike order. Thanks Dave for your great service. read more

I had a very good first experience at this bike shop. Dave was super helpful, and took the time to install the item I bought, then explain the correct technique, even though at this point his shop was starting to get quite busy with customers coming through the door on a busy Saturday morning. read more

This is probably the best shop for service in Eastern Mass. Dave is awesome - very knowledgeable, friendly, honest, and always eager to talk about bikes. Plus, his prices are great, and turn-around times are quick. Since it's a small shop, there is limited bike and parts inventory, but he could probably order most anything. If you need service on your ride, there's no reason to go anywhere else. read more

I went in to buy a gift certificate and the owner was great, friendly. I know my son's first bike will be bought at Rockland Cycle! It's important to support local businesses. read more

Very helpful. Ordered my bike for me and built it the day he got it. The whole process only took about three days, he also gave me a good deal. Awesome guy and really knows his stuff. read more
