Rich, in his own words:
We are a full-service repair shop and pride ourselves in being the most knowledgeable, comprehensive service department in the area. When you bring in your bicycle, expect a free estimate and a discussion of problems regarding ride performance and your own personal requirements for the bike. Taking the time to listen to feedback is vital to making my job easier and making you happy!
