The Cyclery 6260 W River Road, Glen Arbor, MI 49636

"We were on vacation when a spoke broke on my husband's bicycle. We stopped in at The Cyclery and they were able to fix it right away. Fast, friendly (!!!), affordable service. Two thumbs up!"

"I broke my derailleur cable on the road and limped the bike into Glen Arbor. Karl immediately got to work. It turned out a little more difficult than expected, but Karl had the can-do attitude, the necessary parts and expertise for a great repair. Highly recommend."

"The customer service here is top notch! I was riding my mountain bike at Palmer Woods (about 10 minutes from Glen Arbor) recently when I broke a spoke and flatted. I took my bike to the closest shop, which was The Cyclery, and asked if they could possibly fix my rear wheel. Although they're a shop more focused on cruiser bikes and e-bikes, not high-end long travel mountain bikes, the staff welcomed me in and fixed my wheel very quickly on a busy Saturday in May. I was very impressed with the expertise and turnaround time!"

"This review is a bit late in coming, but this place is awesome. In early September, I took off on a weekend bike tour on my ol’ road bike and managed to make it 100 miles north the first day before my rear rack broke, the derailleur bent all the way into the spokes, and a number of other faulty parts (cassette, cables, bottom bracket) caught up with me at last. The next day I limped my ride into this conveniently located shop, desperate for a quick fix, — I still had the 100 miles I needed to ride back by the following day — and these mechanics worked emergency surgery bike repair magic (after chastising me for loading a ton of weight on a bike that was really meant for racing) so that I could leave by the afternoon. Not only that, but while I waited in their shop, they entertained me and the fellow customers with a comical and oddly reassuring banter that reminded me of Click and Clack from the old radio show “Car Talk.” It’s one thing to get your bike fixed up ASAP when you’re in the N. Michigan hinterlands so you can get yourself home in time for work, another to get some really good greasy bike shop repartee while you wait. I’m so grateful these guys exist and decided to open a shop way up north. Was it expensive? Hell yeah. Was it worth it? Absolutely 100 percent. I’ll be sure to go back if I make the trip again (albeit with an actual touring bike). Thanks guys! If you made a podcast, I’d listen to it."
