I ride a lot and am very rough on my bike. I have brought my bike to Quick Release at least a dozen times over the past 7-8 years. Fabulous prices and fabulous quality. Great people. Consistently positive experience!!!!

Great experience! Went in for a few minor things (saddle change, flat, etc) and owner also cleaned up bike and made other minor adjustments that improved the ride experience. Highly highly reco this place.

Stumbled upon this place out of necessity. I was on the 606 when my back tire got flat and I looked up a nearby bike shop and walked a few blocks over. Owner was quick to diagnose the problem was the inner tube and replaced it and had my bike back in shape in 15 minutes. He also told me my tires were under inflated and got them at proper inflation for me. Charged me $12 and could not be happier. My friend who was w me asked about getting her brakes readjusted and that was done in another 20 minutes also at a low cost. Will be coming here again

This place is awesome. They really care and are very affordable. The owner was amazing. Quality service for amazing price. . My bike feels new after a tune-up with Joe. Very reasonably priced. Charges by individual item instead of one large overhead cost. I refuse to go anywhere else. Joe is amazing and very knowledgeable! Fair and friendly!

Meant to write this review for a while.I ran over a screw on the ride home. Bought my bike in since it was nearby and was surprised by the reviews. Took about 2 hours for him to complete, and noticed my wheel was way out of balance and wobbly after. He asked me, did you ride on it after? I said no, I got off right away. He said, well, you have a flat, I fixed it, youre wheels wobbly, and Im not fixing that for you today. The women in there then came to me, said, $8 please. I asked if he was going to fix the wheel? He said nope.Very disappointed considering the reviews here. Will not be back.

I commute year round, and dont always treat my bike kindly. I brought it in to quick release in rough shape, and got the most robust tuneup of its life, and at a surprisingly low cost. Shop has a bad selection of gear and accessories, but its THE place to go for repairs IMO.

Joe at Quick Release Bike Shop quickly became my go-to for anything bike related when I moved to this area a couple years ago. He is very fair on pricing and does an excellent job. I highly recommend him to anyone in the area! You can tell he really cares about bikes and good people.

Joels reputation for crotchety-ness is undeserved. Hes not the most chatty guy but very nice, super helpful and knowledgeable. Fair prices and all sorts of random parts in stock. Plus last time my son and I were there he had an honest-to-god penny farthing in the shop, getting repaired. AWESOME.

Review №22

The owner of Quick Release is Joe and he is the coolest! He does amazing work and he does not gouge you up the butt for simple fixes. He charges you like $10 or less for service and then if you need parts he charges you what he got them for. Kind of great. He is friendly but doesnt not a big chatter. GO there. Go Joe!

Best bike shop Ive ever been to (period). Fair prices and Joe (the owner) takes absolute pride in his work. I originally went here just because it was close (I lived on the other side of the block on Bosworth). Ive since moved to another part of Chicago but continue to trek it over to Joe, hes the best.

Really great place to come for repairs. Most local places are filled with hipsters, but I talked to the owner directly and he gives me his opinions without trying to oversell. Ended up with exactly what I asked for, and price was less than I was quoted

The owner was kind and clearly EXTREMELY knowledgeable about bikes and bike repair. He fixed my two tires, filled em up with air, tightened my brakes, and I bought a small cable lock. Total cost = around $34!

Hands down the best bike shop Ive been to in Chicago. Joe keeps it real, tells the truth, and wont try to hustle you into buying things you dont need. AND hes not condescending (unlike most bike shop employees ive encountered in the past.) Prices are cheap and fair.

Great prices and old style, they fix the tires rather than replacing them! In case someone preferes a place that advertises themselves are organic these are the true heros!

I called over 4 bike shops for a job I needed done on my sons bike & without a doubt Joe the owner had the best price & did a great job that the trip from the northwest suburbs wasnet even a problem. Will tell everyone about this place. And dont forget to get a few jelly beans before you walk out that door!! Lol
