So, this review (so far) is based on my interactions with the Dutch Bike folks from afar. I first…read moreheard about them a while ago, in their activities importing awesome dutch bikes to the area. I then got a Groupon for a bike tune-up from them last week, and have been talking to them about solutions for outdoor bike storage (so we don't have to schlep our bikes up our stairs to our condo). Anyway, thus far, they rate highly due to their offering of Groupons, their quick and friendly email replies, their general awesomeness in importing and selling fun bikes, and overall promotion of a bike friendly city. I'll update this post once I actually visit the store (perhaps tomorrow?). Oh, and their hours (not so easily findable on a mobile browser): Monday - Friday : 9 am - 6 pm Saturday : 12 noon - 4 pm Sunday : closed

After spending the summer in Copenhagen and Amsterdam, I fell in love with the ubiquitous Gazelle…read moreand Batavus bikes that gracefully maneuvered the streets. After trying to actually ride one however, I soon realized that with my short little legs, and mediocre biking skills, I was never going to feel comfortable pedaling a tall Dutch Bike up the hills in my home of San Francisco. Coincidentally, my first stop back in the US was Boston, where I had heard they imported a variety of Dutch Bikes and decided to stop in. Although I was told that they were stepping away from their import business, Dan, the proprietor introduced me to a viable alternative in the Lady Swift Bike produced by DBC. Completely hand built, and custom tailored to your specs in New England (with most parts manufactured stateside), this bike is the perfect mix of great engineering and good design. As someone with a design and production background, I fully understand that the R&D that went into developing this bike is not easy to come by domestically, but that DBC has really accomplished something wonderful here. Dan was incredibly passionate about his bikes and the people behind it. After test riding, I absolutely knew why. I've spent a lot of time on bikes that weren't right for me, just because they usually aren't built to fit people like me. However, the Lady Swift was the smoothest, most balanced and comfortable ride I have ever had the pleasure of taking. For posterity's sake, my bike saavy boyfriend also test rode the bike and agreed wholeheartedly. The bikes start at $2500, and include a custom built frame, engineered and painted to your specs, beautiful rust proof components, and internal shifting mechanisms. The full specs can be found on their site, but all I can say is that the final product is one very nice bike, and in my opinion, a downright steal considering the custom fabrication that goes into the bikes. Dan needs $1500 up front to start the work, and has a lifetime guarantee on the bikes. If you aren't happy for whatever reason, send the bike back for your full money back. DBC would rather that you love your bike, than regret your purchase. Unfortunately I did not have that kind of extra scratch kicking around at the time (quitting your job and traveling for an entire summer kind of does that to you) but Dan has my specs on file and was fully understanding about me holding off until I did have the money to front. However, acquiring one of these fine bikes is at the top of my priorities list. From a business perspective, DBC is top rate, and my personal interaction with Dan was extremely positive. As a Bostonian, he was a very enthusiastic guy who genuinely loves his product and his city. He even went so far as to suggest places for us to visit while we were in town and gave us his card to call him if we needed any tips on where to eat. That all said, I can't review the quality of DBC's tune-ups or really ignore the elephant in the living room that is Chris P's review below, but quite frankly, I don't necessarily think that tune-ups would be their forte, nor give a crap why/how/if that incident happened and I don't think it is my, or anyone's business to be the judge of things that happen in a proprietor's personal life here. All I can really say is that I cannot wait to get my hands on one of these jaunty little rides.

I took a basic welding class to make a barn star at the Garrison Speed Shop in Mendon,…read moreMassachusetts. I have never welded before or used some of the tools and equipment required. The template pieces were all laid out, but that was it. Co-founder Luke had me read and sign all the releases first, and asked about my experience with welding etc. Being a Veteran myself, Luke as well, and the non-profit supporting Veterans and First Responders, he also made sure to ask me if loud noises or anything would bother me. Every step was explained and demonstrated before I was able to do it, and as nervous as I was at first, it quickly went away knowing he took my safety, the safety of others as well as their shop very seriously. Co-founder Ben also provided some muscle when I was unable to bend the metal myself. In just over 2 hours I had sanded, measured, re-measured, bent , hammered and welded together a really cool one of a kind 5-sided barn star. It was definitely something different to do and it was a really cool and fun experience. 5 stars !

If for some crazy reason you are thinking of doing business with Mario Marriotti and Middlessex…read morePowersports you best do your research (including calling the Chemlsford Police Dept.) and prepare to be ripped off. My experience with Middlesex Power Sports / Old Outboard Marina or what ever else Mario is calling himself now, was exactly the same as other reviews you will find on the web if not worse. Mario had my boat for no less than...wait for it...4 1/2 years (not months, years). During which time I stopped in many many times to check on its status. I had to stop in as Mario does not take or return calls. In fact most of the time you can't even leave a message as his message are full. Twice when I visited I found he had been evicted from his place and the boat along with most everything else was gone. Tracking him down to his new location was both time consuming and as anxiety packed as you can imagine. At one point he did have it finished (although not tested) and was delivering it too me only to have the back engine cover fly off on rt 495. Mario did not lock the cover down and it was caught by the wind and flew off. This was a truly rookie mistake that could have easily killed someone. This is a much longer story than I have time to write here but after all the pain, anguish and time, Mario ended stiffing me for $200....sigh. DO NOT LEAVE YOUR BOAT HERE AND ABSOLUTELY DO NOT PAY ANYTHING UP FRONT!

I wanted to trust Mario, but sadly he can best be described as a scam…read more He wanted 1/2 up front, fortunately I only gave him 1/4, because 6 months later I still have no engine back on my boat. He is great at providing excuses and stories of crazy circumstances. He will tell you that all the bad reviews are just crazy "liberal" customers that had unrealistic expectations. I read the other reviews and figured I'd give him a shot. Bad call. Don't make the same mistake.

I have purchased two brand new bikes in under a year from Cycles 128. The dealer was in my new…read morehometown, so I wanted to support them as well as capitalize on the convenience of their proximity to where I live. The first bike was a brand new 2017 Kawasaki Versys X, but it was at their sister dealership in Arlington (Cycles128 doesn't sell Kawasaki). My salesman at the time was Billy, and he was able to have the bike transferred from Arlington to Beverly for me, and I hadn't even put a deposit down on it. yet. This was based on a phone call I had made while on vacation in Costa Rica. Convenient! The whole process was easy, painless, and very relaxed. There was never any pressure or upselling, and it never felt predatory as vehicle sales so often are. Fast forward to just under a year later, and I decided to upgrade to a Suzuki VStrom 650. This time I had the great pleasure of dealing with Ellen Petrilli and Rick Brandano. Yet another chill, great experience. I told them right up front what I was looking for, and with that knowledge, they showed me other alternatives to consider but never discouraging me from my original goal. Their inventory is incredibly vast and a virtual candy store, and I was glad for the other options that were shown to me. I had my heart set on the VStrom, so we got down to business. Worth noting was a little hiccup on Suzuki's part, as their manufacturer website claimed that there were certain accessories included with the bike that tuned out not to be. Not a concern because Rick and C128 were on the case and miraculously got Suzuki to make good on their claim. They didn't have to do that, because most dealerships would predictably claim their hands were tied and just shrug it off. But not these guys. They totally prevailed and saved the day. That I will never forget. The numbers part of the operation was handled by Brad, with whom I had worked with on my prior purchase as well. Another great asset to the company. I now half-expect people to yell "Norm!" when I walk into the place now because I dealt with a lot of people and they're just a warm bunch. Just awesome.
