Does anyone know of a good bike shop on the upper west side with good mechanics?
Thanks...
Upper West Side Bike Shop?
Search back a day or two on this board...there was just a thread on this.
Jennifer,
Champion Bikes at 103rd and Amsterdam have two very good mechanics. It is a small(unattractive) store that does good work. They also do good work at decent prices. The owner is a racer. They are directly across from American Youth Hostels. I have had good luck with them. Also, there are no attitudes here.

I have also had very good dealings with Champion. They are located on Amsterdam between 103rd and 104th streets. Marcos is a great guy and has always delivered for me - always on time, always done the right way. He is an easy going guy who is a pleasure to deal with.

Consensus decision: Master Bike at 77th/Broadway
- Christian"
Hmm, the consensus is Master Bike. This is the shop that assured me they could get my Campy Record running correctly, sold me different looking Record shifters until I insisted on normal looking ones (what the shifters said on them), didn't have the bike ready on time, charged me for new shifters and a new Campy cable set with no change in the performance, and chipped my 300 dollar Cinelli Ram seatpost. When I went to have the job redone at Bicycle Workshop, I was there when David took the cables out and half of the cables were not Campy cables!
Enjoy!
