Reviews of Innovation Bike Shop

My bike had a hard morning and ran over some glass. Innovation was able to get me in for a tire change immediately. They were really friendly, worked quickly and have affordable pricing. They’re now my go to shop! Highly recommend.

I came in because my scooter’s front wheel was getting noisy. The man at the shop told me what was wrong with my ride and what parts to get. Once I ordered the parts he fixed my scooter during my lunch break. Fast service, great price. So much easier and cheaper than having to mail my scooter back to get it fixed by the company. Thank you!!’

Youry Borisenkov

They are great! I came in hopeless with a tire I ordered online for my Ninebot Max scooter. the tire looked too small and I could never get it installed on my own. these guys did the work. professional!

Alex Alston

Great, no-nonsense bike shop. Came in today and got both tires replaced, new brakes, and the handles repositioned and new cork to hold them in place. Not unreasonably priced. Mechanic worked quickly and did a great job. Would reccomend

Popped a spoke on the road, early on a Sunday morning. Thank goodness Innovation was open! Did a terrific job with the repair. Friendly shop. I got to watch the Tour de France stage, live, while I waited. Every serious cyclist should bookmark this place. It's really close to Riverside Drive.

Admir Monteiro

Stopped by Innovation Bike Shop today with a broken spoke and the staff is very friendly. Amazing mechanics and fix a broken spoke and tuneup fast, and the bike feels great. Definitely recommend this shop for anyone looking for a great bike shop and awesome mechanics.👍🏿 …

Jacob Zedek

I brought my bike in very bad shape. I had a broken gear wire and a broken wheel. They figured out all the problems and fixed and it immediately! I thought I would have to drop it off for a week to get service but they fixed it right away in store! Price was great, parts cost was very reasonable. I will definitely be back!

Annie Stoll

This shop was awesome! I got a new bike from a different company & they put it together for me in less than 2 hours! Their price was fair and worthwhile. My bike is working great. I will definitely come back here for tune-ups!

Liza Kent

I had a great experience today. I needed a new brake pad and went before 10 am to wait. As the staff arrived on bikes to open the store, I was glad to see a diverse staff, including a woman! They were friendly, efficient and I was in and out promptly. Prices are good. I am happy to support this local business and will be back.

Cedric Bethea

I love this bike shop. They have excellent mechanics who pay attention to detail. I like the personal one on one attention that they give each customer. This one of the best bike shops to go to in the city. I would highly recommend this bike shop to friends and family or anyone.

My rear brake failed on an old bike. I first took the bike to a shop not too far away from both my home and Innovation. That shop said it couldn’t be fixed easily, plus the bike needed further work. The cost estimate was in excess of $300. I went to Innovation for a repair price comparison. Miguel said he could just replace the brake cable and the bike needed nothing further. He did this in about 20 minutes while I waited. Needless to say, the cost was nominal. Thanks, Innovation, for being honest and competent.

Gay Holstein

This is a wonderful bike shop for both sales and services, including repairs and tune-ups. They took my 30 year old bike, which had been in storage for the last 10, and made it perfect again. Their prices are reasonable, and they are very fast (my bike was ready the next day). They are nice people, and they don't make you feel defensive about being older than 30 and not a professional cyclist. I love this shop.

Garth Johnson

Professionals that know what they're doing. Went there to have my chainring spider on my Cannondale caad 12 changed out after stripping some bolts holes. Went for a slice of pizza and by time I came back it was done. Great price fast work can't ask for anything more!

Doug White

Miguel & Leon are both hard-working, excellent technicians. For a small shop, it's well stocked with a surprisingly large variety of accessories. It's great to have them in the neighborhood!

Angel C.

This is definitely going to be the place I'll be getting repairs on my bike. Good guys in that shop. I was there in the winter and early in the morning, so service was great. I don't know how busy they get during bike season.

Jedediah Purdy

I can't say enough good about this crew. Great, prompt service, very fair prices. nice vibe. I've been to some terrific bike shops over the years in Boston, New York, Boulder, and Durham. This is as solid as they get.

John Fraze

Super fast repair and a fair price - saved my day!

James Robinson

Great service, quick turnarounds (even when busy - and they’re open and honest about timings, even calling you to update), and fair pricing. Even though I don’t live locally anymore, I still head there for servicing from 60 blocks away.

Tania Corporan

Amazing place, very friendly, fast and extremely affordable. I'm very new to cycling and the owner takes his time to explain and teach me every time. They have earned my loyalty and I wouldn't take my bike anywhere else!

Got a flat fixed for $16. Good shop for repairs. Small but good selection of merchandise for sale. They are poplular and need more mechanics to service their volume of business. There was a wait. Staff are polite.

Vera Torres

They have great costumer service and competitive prices!! I've bought already two bikes at this shop. Before I bought my first bike, which it is a "Jamis Hybrid", I visited 10 bike shops all over Manhattan until I came across Innovation Bike Shop. Since the very first time I came inside the store, the staff was friendly and answered all my questions. I loved their costumer service, and the fact that do not have an attitude (opposite with other bike shops I went). Their prices are also fair and competitive. Innovation is the best bike shop in Uptown Manhattan!

Mark Shahlamian

Fast service and very reasonable prices. Took my bike in after a wreck that took out the left shifter on my race bike. They ordered the part and a few days later the bike was fixed, cleaned and tuned up, riding better than ever. Great experience.

Gers Cantara

Great service. Courteous staff. The owner was kind enough to make a last minute quick repair before closing. My go-to bike shop.

Amy G.

Quick service and reasonable prices. We waited right there in the shop as they fixed my bike. Replaced one of the tubes, pedals, and kickstand. Took less than 15 min! I would def return.

Monique S.

I broke my shifter cable riding in Central Park this morning. I waited until 10 a.m. when the shop opened and called. The owner told me to come right over and he would repair it. 20 minutes later, I had a new cable and was good to go! $17 - very reasonable. Professional and helpful. This will be my go-to repair place. I already told my sister to go there for her repairs.

Michael LaRocca

I bought a new Cannondale road bike here today, and the experience was perfect. They were very helpful in presenting different options to me, and when I selected a bike they were able to assemble it in literally 15 minutes. All I can say is that it was a fantastic experience, and I'd recommend them 1000%.

Andrew Flanagan

Super helpful and affordable, did the work right away

Walter Westphal

Got a core-line State Bicycle and took it there to have it assembled. Just gave them the box, un-open, and trusted them completely. This only based on google reviews. When I picked it up, after a couple of hours, they received me kindly (they even complimented the bike), didn't even remove the protective materials the bike came in, and had a perfectly neat bag in which they put every item that came with the bike (instructions, warranty, etc). I said I was terrified of my bike being stolen and suggested cheap, perfect methods to avoid theft. I took it the next day to have them installed (so I could use the bike first and see the seat hight, etc) and they were again completely attentive, installed every item and charged me very little. Leo (the man who assembled the bike) said he wouldn't charge for some stuff since he had assembled the bike. Since I know nothing about these, he even suggested the places where the lock could be (I took my own lock BTW) and other good accessories. This was a great experience (and not every consumer experience in NY can be described that way) and was the perfect way to start my riding adventures in NYC. These guys are simple, trustworthy, good workers (which shows by the way the focus when they are working on a bike) quick, and exactly the kind of people one needs when having a bike fixed. Highly recommended. I have taken the bike up and down manhattan several times now without a single problem.

Anthony Vanky

Friendly and fast. I got a tune up and it was done in a day... And it was price competitive. It can get pretty busy on the weekend, but would highly recommend if you're flexible or willing to wait.

Phillip Zeligier

Came in with a flat and got it fixed within 10 minutes. Also had several questions and they were able to answer them with ease. Will 100% be coming back for any bike trouble or tune ups.

A Rey

Highly recommended! Searching for the bike of your liking made much easier... I was referred by a friend to InnovationBikeShop, after quite some research on a few road bikes that caught my attention. After visiting the store(which they make you feel like family), i walked out ready for my exciting cycling journey. Customer services at its best and reasonable prices.. Thank you de corazón, for placing me on the right path not just with the new bike, but for your much appreciated honest help... -Forever Happy customer, A.R.

David Carr

These guys are super in service. This is the type of shop you want to cultivate as your neighborhood to-go place -- knowledgable, ready to work on bikes when you need it, well-stocked. I use them mostly for repairs and have been really, really happy with them. Race and ride thousands of miles a year and can count on them.

I grew up on the UWS. The bike shop on 96th street was always where I went for bike needs because it's visible. It's on a busy crosstown street and, and it was always crowded. Crowded wasn't ever a plus, it was always mayhem in there, but it's what I knew. I can't say I received great service there, the employees were pretty abrupt if not rude. And I recall getting my bike back after having the tires trued, and having the feeling that nothing had been done to my bike. Well, I haven't ridden my bike in YEARS. 6 at least but more like 10. My bike had collected dust and lost air in my storage room and, later it would be forgotten in the bike room in my building. Well, a bike need arose and I had to fish it out of the bike room. Covered in more dust, with grips that had decomposed, and tires that were lifeless, I decided to roll it to Innovation Bike shop on 106th. The reviews were great. And frankly, the idea of dealing with the 96th street shop didn't appeal to me at all. My Innovation Bike Shop experience was awesome. I walked in, was helped within 3 minutes, left my bike there on a Tuesday for a tune up, with a Friday pick-up. I was told that I'd get a call if something was found during the tune-up that needed fixing. I received a call on Wednesday afternoon ... the bike was ready for pick-up. I almost didn't recognize the bike. There was NO dust on it. Not even on the odometer wires that snaked up the fork. The gears looked new, no dust caked grease anywhere to be found. The rims were shiny. And the grips I had picked out were on the handlebars. I couldn't believe how much care had been put into the tune-up. Innovation Bike shop is my new Bike Shop. And good riddance 96th street :)))))

I needed my bike put together and tuned (slightly) after shipping it to NYC from Seattle. Innovation quoted a fair price, promised to complete the work in the time I thought it ought to take, delivered on their promise, and were nice as can be. The two guys that run/work the place are competent, nice and honest. It was a lovely welcome to NYC. Gracias, mi nuevos amigos!

Michael Lee

This is how you run a bike shop. I have a novice road bike that needed a tune-up and some minor repairs. I explained to Leo that I'm not a Lance Armstrong wannabe, just a guy who rides about 100 miles per week during the spring/summer. He was non-judgemental & made me feel comfy doin biz. My bike was ready when promised & he explained what was done without making me feel like the newbie I am

Chris Gorgolewski

Excellent service. 5/5. Would recommend to a friend.

Lucas Bernard

The problem with most bike shops is "bike shop attitude." When my 40+ bulky frame enters, all I get is snickering, 'smart' remarks like "you want a comfort bike," they show me all these seats with 2 inches of foam, joke about if I want a shopping basket, etc. They don't care that I've been riding for 25 years; they are more interested in their jokes. I guess their problem is that although they do have jokes, they won't get my cash, which is what business is all about. So, I was delighted to discover Innovation Bike Shop where there is NO such attitude. Leo and Camie are not only both great guys with serious experience, but they sold me the bike I wanted to have. Sure, they made suggestions about which components to have and which not, but they did it respectfully and their ideas were great. The shop carries a great line of products for urban bikers. No matter if you are doing interval training in Central Park (when the boys in blue are not watching) or simply a street rider, you will be happy here. They truly do INNOVATE and came up with some great solutions. They know the city and what is important for NYC riders. They cannot do anything about the police, but they will tune you up to outrun them! I bought a Cannondale Bad Boy with disk brakes because it allows you to swap out wheel sets (700 X 23 mm for the road and 26 X 2" knobbies for the snow or trail). With all that wheel swapping, the disks required a bit of tweaking. The guys at Innovation Bike Shop were happy to do all that and FAST. I also gave them my 15 year-old GT hard-tail to tune up; that bike has been through thick and thin with me, from taxi collisions to 0-degree spills on the ice by the river in January. So, it has a few twists and curves in it that were not part of the original design. Nonetheless, Julio and Camie got that running so well, I almost wondered why I bought the Cannondale on my ride home. Altogether, this is a great bike shop located close by to Central Park, Columbia University, and Riverside Park. Their prices are fine and the work they do is superb. They rent bikes too, so avoid the lines at the tourist-traffic places further downtown.

Guido Lagos

You know how nowadays businesses are all about "building a long lasting relationship"? Well, this guys aren't so much into that; they're more like "get paid here and now". Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it could throw you off when dealing with them. Example 1: you live nearby, want to buy a bike and you've liked their prices. Then go ahead, they'll probably treat you well and you'll be back. Example 2: you're shopping for a specific part, which you know how to install, and you're on a budget. Then maybe [as it was my case] you'll have a not-so-nice experience, since they'll push you into trying to install it themselves and charge you a lot for it.

Edwin Mejia

Fantastic. Let me test ride, built me a new bike out of the box, got me all the gear I needed, and even taught me a few things all in the last hour of being open. Definitely coming back for tune ups and more gear.

Ben Garber

Great little shop. I came in here with a flat tire. Repair was fast and cheap, and service was friendly. Strongly recommend.

Laura Wolfe

Excellent family owned business. Great service! They don’t always show up at 10am but worth the wait 🤣 …

David Feuerstein

Very friendly. Service oriented. Fair price. This is where I will take my bike from now on.

Christie Ray Harrison

Great experience! Rented bikes for a couple hours and they were good quality and easy to obtain, much cheaper than the touristy companies in Central Park too.

Darnell

I'm a bike courier and I've been to tons of bike shops in NYC but this one sticks out the most besides the good service and fair prices it's the positive energy that brings me back
