Bought a bike online? Let us build it right. Our professional bike assembly service ensures your new ride is safe, tuned, and warranty-protected. We handle everything — e-bikes, hybrids, kids’ bikes, and more. You can even ship your bike directly to our shop for hassle-free assembly and pickup.
Walk-ins are always welcome, but booking ahead ensures the fastest turnaround and helps us prepare for your specific build.
We strive to complete most assemblies within the same day or next day whenever possible. Every bike is unique, and some builds — especially e-bikes or custom models — may require additional time for part compatibility checks or fine-tuning.
You can count on clear, proactive communication from our team. If we encounter any delays or parts issues, we’ll notify you right away and keep you updated every step of the way.

We know it looks almost done — but those “90% assembled” bikes are usually built by warehouse staff or computers, not real mechanics. To meet our safety and performance standards, we still need to inspect, torque-check, and often partially disassemble the bike before final setup.
When riders try to finish the build at home, it often creates extra work (and sometimes damage) our techs have to fix later. Having us assemble it ensures your bike is safe, shifts right, and rides like it should — no guesswork, no shortcuts.
Every bike we assemble includes a Quick Tune, our signature safety and performance inspection. That means our mechanics torque every bolt to spec, adjust brakes and gears, inflate tires to the proper PSI, lubricate the chain, and take the bike for a short test ride to confirm everything feels dialed in.
It’s our way of making sure your new bike isn’t just built — it’s ready to ride safely and smoothly from day one.
