Alexa was a great help at both helping me meet my needs and fit within my budget. I went with a used Cannondale bike and it was in lovely shape. The shop had it all fixed up and up to par. They even installed the rack on for me that I bought. The prices were more than fair, as i ended up getting all my needed accessories here too. All the staff i talked to were friendly and guided me through the various of options of what I was looking for. This shop is a great part of the community and I am glad I got my first bike here!

It turned out that the rotor for my back wheel was slightly bent. They changed my tires, ordered a new rotor for my back wheel and installed it. They had to completely take apart my electric bike in order to install the new rotor. It took them about a week, about a half week of that was getting the rotor delivered. Great guys, very knowledgeable and friendly, a very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Cole waved the charge for changing the rotor in my back wheel because they missed it the first time I came over to pick my baby up, after a few miles it had started making that worrying noise again. Definitely quality of service and they stand behind their work. Highly recommend!!

I'll try this…read more I had to listen to a performative dood talk emanating from the floor worker to a customer about chain lubricant that went on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. And on an on an on an on and on. And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. And on and on and on and on and on an on and on and on and on and on. It was a long time. I waited. And I waited some more. I did some serious waiting five feet away in a red sweater. No acknowledgment. No letting me know it might be a while. But that would've likely stopped the upselling I started to see. So I turned me and my bike around and left. It's hard for me to be on my feet that long. That's why I bike. Dood has a right to be into his subject matter. Usually shops want you to feel comfortable and respected as somewhat of a priority, even if you aren't being directly pitched at the moment... it just was not a good vibe. All doods working there when I was in. Way heavy on the dood vibe. Captive audience syndrome. Sigh. Dood has to do what a dood does. I avoid places like this. Going to the bike collective in Rogers Park instead next time.

Story: After my good first experience here, I thought I was going to have to come back and downgrade my review. I got a flat just days after Chainlinks did a repair, stranding me across town and forcing me in to pay for a another repair at the nearest bike store I could walk to. That bike mechanic told me it looked like Chainlinks missed a small piece of wire in the tire. He said it would have been tough to find because of how small, but still, it was probably the same wire that caused 2 tubes in a row to go flat. Crap. So I returned to Chainlinks to talk about it. Different staff working this time and I was concerned I'd get blown off. Instead I got a quick and attentive listen, and the staff immediately put in a call to their manager to authorize a refund (which they offered, I didn't even have to ask for) and they apologized several times. Because of how outstandingly friendly, helpful and the fact that these guys stood by their work, I'm keeping my review 5 stars and I will go back.
