Repair Services
All three of our locations are Full-Service Professional Bicycle Repair Shops with professionally certified mechanics. If there is a component or accessory that your need installed, maintained, adjusted, overhauled, or replaced we can do it!
Please schedule a drop-off appointment for a free quote on any repair needs that you may have. We can perform repairs a la carte, or help you save money when multiple small repairs are combined into one of our Tune-Up packages! Check out the tables below to see what's included at each Tune-Up level. Labor rates do not include parts costs.
The Hub Bicycle Co-op Service Technicians are proud to offer a 90-day limited guarantee on our repair labor on shop-quality bikes. Some services may be exempt. Tube change labor is guaranteed for 30 days. See your mechanic for details.
Due to limited storage space, repaired bikes left at the Hub for more than one week beyond completion of repair will be assessed a $1-per-day storage fee. Bicycles left for 60 or more days will be sold to recoup part and labor costs.
