I was looking for very small shifter parts for a 1987 Cannondale. After 5 minutes of sorting through parts and tinkering, I found everything I needed! Very helpful staff. Looking forward my next trip here!
Oftentimes not open when advertised. Real bummer to arrive and the sign says closed although the hours posted indicate it should be open. It's a good shop if you can get in. It would be helpful if they could communicate better their actual hours.
Though I didn't take advantage of it, B Works also is willing to work with customers to build a custom bike to their liking from the frame up, which I thought was very cool. It is a great place to look for bike parts and accessories.
Overall great experience. It feels great to support a shop with such a great community presence. It's also nice not to pay sales tax. I don't know if I've ever felt better leaving a store than when I left B Works; I would recommend it to anyone that asks.
I wish I could give 6 stars.
I recently bought an older bike from a friend. After the first use, the front brakes went bad. It was a Sunday, and I tried the only shop in St. Louis I knew was open. They were going to charge me over $85, and I honestly felt I was being take advantage of for being a beginner. The shop worker was a bit condescending (not on purpose) and charged me $15 for looking at my bike and tightening one bolt (without my approval). I paid the $15 and left because I didn't feel it would take nearly $85 to fix one single stripped nut on my brake.
Just bought a bike here this week, and I'm loving it so far! I came into the store not knowing exactly what I wanted, and the people working there were excellent in asking questions about what I wanted from a bike and then made helpful suggestions. The person helping me out actually stayed after the shop was supposed to close in order to help me figure out what other things I needed to go along with my bike.
So I went to Bike Works a few days later. It took 15 minutes, and for HALF the price I was going to have to pay at the other shop, I not only got the brake fixed but I also got a helmet, a bell, AND a water bottle holder. I never once felt shamed or taken advantage of for being a beginner here. Bike Words is supreme. Period.
They sell a variety of new and used adult bikes starting at about $200. Beautifully fixed up - new tubes, tires, cables, brakes, adjustments. I and my friends have been very happy with the bikes I have bought there (hybrid, road, and tandem).
