The Old Spokes Home has always been a great shop. Lately I’ve been even more impressed by the welcoming vibe, the clear communication, and the fast, high quality service. They especially do a fantastic job on my treasured steel-frame Trek road bike. It comes back gleaming and running like a dream! Thanks OSH!

Matchull Summers

Best and most progressive bike shop I’ve ever been to. Rode through on a tour from NYC to Montreal and they sorted us out with a tune up for cheap. Thanks y’all.

Godot

Awesome service and experience. Highly recommended! The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and will go the extra mile to help you. Special bonus points for being a non profit who gives free bikes away to those in needs.

Hannah Lawrence

What a gem! Incredibly friendly and knowledgeable staff. I walked in and they inspected my bike on the spot. I was a bit late to schedule a spring tune up, but they offered to fix my busted tire on the spot so I wouldn't have to wait to ride until my tune up next month. Will definitely be going back!

Lucy Tran

Fabulous and caring staff. Great products. Went above and beyond to help me get my first e-bike. 🙂 …

I've been coming here off and on for years. This place is always so welcoming, friendly, and helpful, it's one of the best bike shops for actual people. I personally believe people here genuinely care about there customers, and the community in general. It's more than just a business.

I seldom leave a review for companies, this might be my third, but when I do its because a company or business has gone above and beyond, ( I don't leave negative reviews, because every one has a bad day). Old Spokes is an amazing bicycle shop. I truly enjoyed my time looking for and picking out my bike,. The reason for this is because of the honesty of the employees and their willingness to assist my wife and I. Today (April 3, 2021), Old Spokes was very busy and yet the employees managed their time astoundingly to ensure each customer was taken care of. This business takes pride in their refurbished bikes and it shows. They will not sell you.a bicycle, if they have any doubt in its integrity. I will not shop at any other bike shop for my bicycle needs. Lastly, this place has an awesome mission of providing affordable bikes that people from any walk of life can afford. Not to be sentimental, but in some cases, a bike is the only way for those with out great means can travel. Which can mean the difference between getting a job or not. I am beyond grateful I found this place. I look forward to going back to Old Spokes.

Excellent shop with excellent staff and service. I look forward to going back again. The staff here is knowledgeable and really seem to strive to provide a good experience for everyone, whether your looking for repairs or even a new bike. Pricing is fair on most parts and they run some really good deals on second hand bikes. One of the best bike shops around and I highly recommend it for everyone

Timmy Miller

One of the coolest, funkiest bike shops on Earth. If you want a badass old school bike, you can get one here, but be prepared to wait for it.

MARCY Soutiere

This is a great shop and the staff is very helpful and super nice. I would definitely recommend to buy a bike from here!!

Andrew Gratton

I had no idea such a gold mine for bike parts existed in VT! New and used, and dang nice people that work there! Charlie was awesome! I plan on going back for sure!

Why is it the best shops are always the cheapest? It’s because managing and service are so closely related. These folks are knowledgeable and busy! Couldn’t wait for them to do the brakes so I took the parts and ran, but I believe they would have done just as good a job if not better. Their customers are varied, yet ever so friendly and helpful. If you have any trouble, look for the guy in the overalls.

Got my bicycle from here a few months ago and they made it so easy even with the extra and time-consuming precautions they are taking at the store. All of the staff is super helpful and really take time to help you out. Used bike selection is usually pretty great (unless everyone is trying to snatch up a bike) and they do good work!

Jonathan White

I was helped by Austin. He was very helpful and went above and beyond my expectations. Austin, if you see this, thank you again! I had a wheel that I bought from the store over a month ago, but because of a mess-up from amazon loosing my package for 3 weeks, I did not realize the wheel would not work with the piece from amazon until the wheel was past the return dat. despite this, Austin was able to help me out and save my wallet haha. Even though it may not have been the best for the company, Austin did what was best for the customer. THANK YOU!!! I will definitely be shopping at Old Spokes Home again!

Their refurbished bikes are excellent. Felt confident immediately riding in traffic, and going on 8+ mile ride, without bringing tools. They refurbed a very nice, early 90's step through univega hybrid, for me, and installed fenders, basket, and rack. Bike has been very solid, and I have ridden 30+ miles in all conditions, since buying it and used it for hauling 20+lbs of groceries without needing adjustments so far.

Lexie gingras

Amazing Experience! The employees are very helpful and kind, and prices are great. They made sure everything was looking good with the bike before I purchased it, and they put the new seat I purchased on for me!

Camilla Mahon

My roommate and I went to Old Spokes together, each looking for a new bike. She was looking for a town cruiser that can also be used to commute on, and I was looking for a road/cross bike. The employee who helped us was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. He sized us up and gave us each three options that fell within the realm of what we were looking for, all of which we were able to test ride. He did a great job explaining the differences between each of the options in a very understandable and thorough manner. I was really excited that the sales staff was not pushy, nor did they use language that was over my head (which I've been intimidated by at other shops in the past). I would recommend Old Spokes to anyone looking for a new or used bike. I'm really happy with my purchase - it fits me well and suits my needs perfectly. They also have a great museum upstairs with bikes from the 1800s! Very cool to see. A follow-up plus: you receive a free tune-up after initial purchase, which is great for anyone breaking in a new bike. When my roommate and I went back, we encountered another very helpful and friendly salesman. I feel confident relying on this shop for all of my bike-related needs.

Even with COVID changes (doing everything outside), this was the best bike shop experience I've ever had. My group was touring in the area and came in with lots of small repairs one morning. Everyone at the well-staffed shop (many female staff btw which was awesome) was fast, friendly, and helpful, and all repairs were very affordable.

Adam DeMasi

These folks are amazing. I have been a patron for 18 years and they have never disappointed. Had a minor issue on my first ride of the year, they looked at it, gave me solid advice and got me on my way. Really friendly, really dedicated to the community. Seriously the best bike shop in town!

Lee Weltman

Had my road bike in for a time and the frame had a crack. They had a nice used frame that they transferred or found all the parts and components for from mostly my old bike for a reasonable fee. I think any other shop wouldn’t have bothered to do that and only would of looked to sell me another bike.

David Rochberg

Friendly staff. Excellent resources and parts for older bikes.

Matt Lerner

Bought a refurbished bike from this shop and could not be happier with it. I ride it to work 5 days/week. Took another bike there for repairs. They did a great job, at a fair (actually, generous) price. Couldn't recommend them more strongly.

Tim vitali

Great all the way around,friendly and knowledgeable staff,excellent maintenance on my bikes and still had money in my pocket.

Jennifer Raymond

They were great! Went in to fix a flat and change the other tube. Very reasonably priced, nice and they fixed it right then in about 20 minutes! Definitely will go back again for any services needed!

Kevin Jerram

Got a flat tire this morning as I rode by the shop. (Always thought it would be a good idea to smash bottles out front to drum up some business...) They cheerfully let me borrow a pump and provided some Gorilla Tape to temporarily patch the gash on the inside of the tire until its replacement arrives. After working as a mechanic in another old-school shop for over a decade, it was clear they just wanted to help me get back on the road, with no delay and no pressure to buy anything. Looking forward to my next visit, planned or unplanned...

Oliver Rock

I went over to Old Spokes Home today to get an air pump for my bike. Turns out they had some obscure items I was expecting not to find anywhere else but on the internet, like Brooks Proofide leather conditioner for Brooks saddles. On top of having that, when I was leaving, they came out and helped me fix my bike mirror, entirely out of courtesy! Wonderful people, wonderful store, 10/10 would recommend! <3

I brought my old Jamis Exile in there on a whim, no appointment because I had a derailleur failure and the mechanic fixed it on the spot. I had been turned away at other shops because I have a damaged frame but Old Spoke understood my needs and did the work. Nice bunch of people.

Chris Cox

These people rock. Only place I trust with my bike. They are just "on it" in every way. Very high standards--amazing service quality. I love love love having them in our town--they are an absolute gem.

Miranda Sehl

The staff was very knowledgable and friendly. They fixed a small problem I was having with my bike with super short notice! This is a great business to support.

sean murray

Very cool store nice to check out all the old bikes up on the walls. Very helpful friendly staff I went out of their way to rummage around for an odd part that I needed . I will be back.

Jeremy Rodriguez

great service! Jeremy and his staff were kind enough to open early this morning to help me when I got a flat tire, and got me out quickly to make it to work on time, thanks again!!

Liam Griffin

More than just a bike shop, they've got the museum upstairs, a ton of used bikes and a community mission worth supporting. Love that we have a local bike shop like Old Spokes that does so much for the Burlington community.

Jaffrey H (jhede1)

They were able to get my bike fixed quite early! I was impressed! Pretty affordable as well

Chris Cox

These are awesome humans of the bike tribe and will help you out. They are also a non-profit shop witha mission to get people on bikes. Integrity and authenticity located here.
