Green Machine Cycles

I decided to try them out to have my two juvenile bikes and my wife’s bike tuned up for the season. They were able to have the bikes ready in the expected timeframe without any issues. They even were able to find hard to find bike parts for my kids’ bikes that are not normally carried at other shops (think pink streamers and pink handle bar grips).

Only good words! Very down to earth and friendly Ezra and his shop. I especially appreciate that at this place they will never compromise over quality of the repairs.
Also they are simply good people — they support local non for profit bike collective The Recyclery.
Please, support them back!

Brought my 20 year old Schwinn in for repair. Feels like a new bike! They could not have been nicer and the work was top notch! Ready for take-​off! Thanks for being in the neighborhood.

I commute on my (inexpensive) bike all through the winter, and need work done pretty regularly, so I feel very lucky to have Green Machine just a couple of blocks from home. There may be shops where you can get things done more quickly (it’s not a big place, so if you need a specific replacement, they’ll likely have to order it), but the prices are very fair and Ezra is certainly an expert. Being that I ride around on what many cyclists would consider a hunk of junk, I run the risk of condescension at every bike shop I go to, but there’s not an ounce of that at Green Machine. No judgment… just good, reliable help. I’ll stop into other shops if I have an issue on my route, but I’ll only take my bike to Ezra for major work.

I came in here about a month ago I think, but just remembered to write a review on my experience. The guy did a good job on my bike. He fixed more than one problem as well as a tune up, but the one thing I won’t forget was that he was pretty rude. I don’t know if he was having a bad day or something, but I definitely got some negative vibes. Might go back just because his prices are good, but we’ll see.

Ran in today before the gym to get some lube on my chain, and Ezra (I think?) immediately took care of me, checking out the whole bike adjusting several things to speed up my ride. Quick, painless, and friendly, and my ride out of there was incredibly smooth. So glad I found my new bike shop!

Top notch service! Great prices and friendly staff. I couldn’t ask more of a bike shop.

Killer bikes, killer staff, killer accessories, killer repairs! Ezra and Bobby know their shit! go.

I walked my winter weary bike over to Green Machine and was immediately greeted by Ezra. Not that I’m looking for that, but it’s always nice to be acknowledged. That said, my tires were dead flat and he hand-​pumped air into them and checked the tubes, air nozzle, etc. I also needed a battery replacement for my bike computer. That was a bit of an effort on his part, but no problem. BTW, the battery was ½ the price of a drug store! With a bit of labor, my bike is back to A-​OK! I’m delighted this bike store is in our neighborhood. Friendly, convenient, and most reasonable! Thanks so much!

I really don’t like the passive aggressive nature of negative Unilocal reviews, so I’ll do everything I can to be direct. Hi! I came in to the store earlier today, I was in a blue shirt and a bandanna and I was interested in some advice for my squeaky bike. You had a long beard and short-​ish brown and grey hair.
Although I didn’t know you looked like that for the first 15 minutes of my visit, because the door was locked andy there was a note that read «back in 5.» And it’s funny you should have mentioned, because I did «start my little stop watch» as you asked me when I informed you how long I had been waiting. I arrived at 1:52pm and you opened the door at 2:06. If I’m not mistaken that is 14 minutes (not 15, you’re right) Im really sorry I didn’t have a witticism prepared when you asked me that, I’m just not used to people being such d-​bags to me within 3 minutes of making my acquaintance.
I totally understand that you can’t remotely diagnose problems with bikes, but I’m guessing there are limited diagnoses to a squeaky chain. And contrary to your comparison, bicycle maintenance is not the same as what doctors do, my dear. I know you aren’t clairvoyant, and my feeble attempts at humor (what?! They told me you were clairvoyant!) were not me having fun with you but rather my way of expressing how uncomfortable I was with your terrible customer service (I.e. Making me wait for 15 minutes, not apologizing and immediately being dismissive, arrogant and the rudest!). I’ve worked in customer service for 10 years now so I empathize with most people in your position. And I apologize for not introducing myself or asking your name. That was rude on my part. But I am not totally sure why you felt the need to be so mean. You did, after all, just get off your break.

New to the area and much welcomed. Helped me pretty much gut my beloved bike and put it back in great shape. I’ve gone to most of the known bike shops in the city and I’m hoping Green Machine becomes one of them. The owner, Ezra, is about as nice and professional as they come. Also, he has an amazing beard my girlfriend would obsess over.

Ezra is a top-​notch guy and great at what he does! He is knowledgable without being condescending, friendly, and honest.
