"Gary, the owner is a lovely guy. Plus his prices are honest and reasonable. Totally happy giving him business."

"I cannot express my gratitude for the excellent service I received here! My bike sustained some damage the day before I was supposed to ride it in a race, and Gary was kind enough to fix it quickly for me, and charged a fair price for services. My bike rode perfectly for the race! Thank you again!"

"Brought my Cannondale into TLC because the front and rear brakes were squeaking quite a bit. Gary and team changed the front and rear pads as well as the rear rotor, assuring that should do the trick. When I picked up the bike in the shop, Gary tested out the brakes and we both heard the front still squeaking. I took it home to ride around a bit and test the brakes to find the front and rear were still squeaking, so I brought it back in to the shop to clean the pads and possibly replace the front rotor. After picking up the bike a second time they apologized they weren't able to get it right the first time and that hopefully it was fixed now. Fast forward ---> I'm still waking up the whole neighborhood with my squeaky brakes as I ride. Would love to give 5 stars as the price seemed fairly reasonable (although labor was weirdly scratched out and increased for some reason) and they seemed to be interested in solving the problem; however, I can't keep bringing the bike back here only for it to not be fixed."

"Gary was really knowledgeable and went above and beyond sizing a road bike for me. I told him I’m leaving Monday to head back to Florida but my sister was going to be seeing me for Christmas so their was no rush Gary had my bike ready in 24 hours and I’m taking it home tomorrow. I have never bought a bike from a person who was so knowledgeable and passionate about their profession. I highly recommend TLC for Bikes for anyone."

"The owner Gary Smith is very helpful and knowledgeable about bikes and fitness. Especially with endurance training and endurance nutrition. We discussed endurance needs for cycling and how to supplement before and during a ride as well as resistance training in the gym. Their maintenance shop is awesome and they do great work. I highly recommend TLC for Bikes. Just stop by and see for yourself. They also host bike rides Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Join them for a friendly ride of 35 miles or so."
