The Spun team helped me with a folding bike I had just bought that needed adjustments. They are always so friendly and willing to assist above and beyond....doing the extras like taking it for a spin around the block for a safety check. I mean who does that? Spun does. Northside is lucky to have you!!!!

On my first visit to Spun 5 years ago, I walked in and said I was looking for some kind of road bike. Dom took the time to explain all the different types of bikes and let me ride them all. I ended up choosing a cyclocross bike and stayed after hours chatting about bikes with my new friends Dom & Judi.They don’t care what you ride or how much spandex you own. It’s a pretty serious contrast to the vibe you get stepping into a stuffy corporate bike shop.It’s simply the best place for bikes, parts, and repair.

Judy and Dominic rebuilt an old steel bike for me that I just couldn’t part with. I love the bike even more now. All new components and painted frame. Great design and attention to detail. They are a lovely small biz that I like supporting. Highly recommend!

If you need a slick custom build or a details oriented restoration, they are the folks to turn to, not just in the Ohio valley, but in the US. They do sought after builds, but they also helped keep my everyday work bike on the road while I lived in Cincinnati. A lovely shop in a great neighborhood. They do good work!

I cannot say enough good things about this shop. Youve heard the phrase giving you the shirt off their back, well this shop and its lovely owners sold me a bike helmet almost literally off the owners head just to ensure I would be safe as a newer rider returning to the streets for the first time in decades. The quality, sincerity and obvious love for what they do means they will have my support without question going forward. Keep up the great work and community support!

Thanks judi and Dom!!

The epitome of what a ma and pa bike shop should be! THE place to go if you need a repair. Do NOT take your bike to a nationwide chain if you want it fixed right. Dominic and Judi will treat you like family and make sure you are happy. Honest and straightforward approach. People come here from other cities to have their bikes worked on! That speaks for itself. You are not just another number here, you are making a difference in 2 very hard-working peoples lives who are living their dream come true!

Dominic and Judi are some of the nicest people I’ve met in Cincinnati. They are super knowledgable and highly respected in the community. They both worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic and made it safe in their shop for folks to get their bikes repaired. I wouldn’t trust my bike to anyone else.

Spun is awesome. I have a mountain and a road bike that I get serviced there and have bought accessories (helmet, clips, etc) from them as well. Dom and Judi are always super accommodating and straight forward with expectations in terms of timing of repairs (they always seem to over deliver).I also can’t say enough about their honesty. I ride Cannondale which is not a brand they carry. Had some issues after a pretty bad wreck. Instead of going outside their normal supply base and costing me more than it should have, Dom actually directed me to another local shop that had better pricing on parts I needed. That kind of service will keep me coming back always.

The best modern bike shop. Dom and Judi are both very great people. Kinda reminds me of bike shops back in the 70s and 80s. I love this place and the people that own it.

Review №21

Unprofessional on the phone. Called looking for something, got interrupted like the person was annoyed and then got laughed at and told good luck for what I was looking for. First time I ever dealt with Spun, there wont be a second. Try some better phone etiquette, every other bike shop in town was pleasant to speak with.Edited: Dropping to one star because now they are trying to argue with me in the reply to my review and they felt the need to literally call me unsolicited to argue more. Apparently the most important thing for Spun is to defend themselves rather than ask why a customer was unhappy. Im not your dude bro, I was a potential customer.

Super helpful and friendly staff. With not being able to visit the store due to Covid, they were able to discuss with me over the phone the products and options in regards to what I was looking for. This is why I am always supportive of small businesses.

Spun is the best bicycle shop in Cincinnati.Owners Judi and Dom are two of the nicest people on the planet, and the excellent work they did to my bike is unparalleled. I took it in to have the brakes fixed and for a tune up, and they somehow made an 8-year-old bike ride like it was brand new, I dont even remember the bike riding this well when I bought it new. Because of their years of experience and expertise, I trusted them to make changes to the bike to improve it, and they exceeded my expectations 10 times over. I didnt even realize I needed a new shifter, but they suggested it and told me why it would be better, and they were right.They shared with me the cost of each part before they added them, got my permission, and quoted me a price on labor. I tried to hide my astonishment when they gave me the final low price since they essentially gave me back a brand new bike. All of this took place during a global pandemic, and they were wearing gloves and masks and only doing business on the sidewalk, which I greatly appreciated. Their safe business practices made me feel more at ease.So long as I live in the Cincinnati area, Spun will alway have me as a customer. Cannot recommend them enough.

This is such an incredible shop. Not only do Dom and Judi provide all the material things you need to enjoy your time on the bike, they encourage you to get into different types of riding as well. They helped me find a passion for off-road riding that has brought SO MUCH to my life. Not only that, they do incredible custom work and completely re-worked my beloved old steel frame bike. AND if you go in to buy something as small as pedals or a lock they treat you like youre the most important customer who has ever waked in the door. Not a hint of snobbery or upselling. Truly a fantastic shop.

I have known judi for maybe 15 years. I was excited for them when they opened the shop. I knew she hated her desk job. As I watched their business bloom, I kept seeing these beautiful bikes that Dominic built up against the brick wall behind the shop. I said One day. As a side note, I am a 7 time rider of the ALC/Lifecycle a 545 mile ride from SF to LA. On that ride there is a team of fixed gear cyclists. This team is tough and impressive, their motto is Fixin to end AIDS and their name is Team Cretin, follow them on Instagram. This ride I spent some time with them and thought Id really like a fixed gear bike. I got home, got ahead a little bit and called judi. Did I mention I live in California? I asked if Dominic would be interested in building me a fixed gear bike. Hell yeah. We talked for a while, I had him check out my social media so he could see what I was about and I gave him a budget and let him go to town. I sent him the measurements from my road bike fit and answered his questions. I never told him what I wanted besides something cool. I think you find a great artist and let them create and you end up with something way more awesome than if you tell the artist what to paint.Well it arrived two weeks ago and I got it assembled last week. The boys at the local bike shop were like puppies watching this thing roll out. It is gorgeous and perfect. I name my bikes and this one is Rooted in Oakland. It is so much fun to ride. I just have to remember Im a distance cyclist. Great shop. Good people. Part of their community. Incredible talent.

Ive been a customer of Dom & Judi since they first opened and have always been impressed with the level of customer service they give to everyone who walks in the door. Whether you want a tune up for that old bike in the basement or a new superbike build they will always go out of there to make sure you have a great experience.

I was so geeked to have a bike shop come into our community after years of driving across town for tuneups and parts. I can’t say enough about how responsive these guys are about the get er done attitude. They were quick and super attentive to detail and for me that meant everything. I’m super picky about every last detail of my bike and they did it right the first and every time since.

If you would like a wholesomely positive experience meeting two of the finest people on earth, head over to Judi and Dominic. They will brighten your day with smiles, relaxed conversation, and genuine interest in you as a person. I dropped off my bike for servicing which could have usually taken five days. It was completed skillfully within two! Head over to Spun Bicycles. Your bike - but more importantly your self-esteem - will get a major boost. Thank you, Judi and Dom.

From the time you walk into the door of this little shop you feel like you are at home. Whether it be Dom greeting you whole doing some repairs or Judi who is running around to make sure everyone is happy, you will feel welcomed and like you just stepped into a family members home. Thats how Spun treats you, like family. This right here will make me a loyal customer for life.

I cant say enough positive things about them! Being from Iowa and used to my family owned bike shops this was a breath of fresh air to walk in and have an amazing local husband and wife shop! They were beyond friendly and gave me an amazing price to fix up my Surly. I read all the reviews I could before coming here because I wanted to make sure they could work on my Surly Long Haul Disc Trucker and I am beyond amazed at the quality of work and the honest, fair assessment of my front wheel which I needed to replace and they made sure I had the same quality wheel and within my price range. I recommend this shop to anyone wanting a amazing locally owned shop and not a big box store.

Hands down great shop. If youre looking for a $4k carbon fiber race machine, this isnt the place for you. If you want a great, comfortable experience with passionate and knowledgeable folks that dont talk down to you, you will love it. You can tell Dom and Judys passion is just to get people on bikes they love. Great prices, great people, great service.

Judi and Dom put heart, soul, blood, sweat and tears into Spun and it shows. So lucky to have them and their shop in Cincinnati. They listen to customer needs and never try to oversell. Theyre always about getting that perfect bike style for each individual person that walks through their doors. Oh, and if you want custom in Cincy, Spun is where its at.

Looking for a new bike? SPUN is not a bike mill. Theyll find the best bike for your riding style and budget. They dont push bikes to move inventory.Got a bike in need of repair? Their attitude is, if you ride it well love it! Dom and Dakota are master mechanics and can not only repair and upgrade your baby but tweak its fit like no one else in the Cincinnati area.It they have SPUN t-shirts in stock when you visit youd better grab one in your size quick! Theyre sought after and sell fast! (Ask for a sticker too!)

Just moved here from Atlanta and decided to stop by Spun bicycles vs another bike shop that was a bit closer to me (just for the sake of trying a business that wasnt necessarily closer for a change.) Im really glad I did. Excellent first experience: stellar and friendly customer service, took care of me promptly, provided me with what I was looking for, and welcomed me to the city. Highly recommend, and am looking forward to visiting this particular business for all of my future biking needs.

There are no better small business owners than Judi and Dom. They work hard to find a solution for every cyclist. They make me feel special and I love dropping in just to say hi even when I dont have any bike needs. I send every single person who has a question about or a need for a bike to Spun.

Review №52

Had a shifting problem with my Spun Masi Giaramondo while on the Ohio-Erie Trail. Milford bike shop could not fix. Took the bike back to Dom and Judi who were very apologetic that I had my ride interrupted. Dom worked on the bike, swapping out several parts and ultimately decided to contact Masi and persuade them to replace - with an upgrade! Dom and Judi then refitted as my original touring configuration - all at no charge!Dom even let me use his bike while I was in town and my bike was unavailable.Ive patronized 1/2 dozen bike shops over the 25 years Ive been riding. Spun is the best hands down! Very knowledgeable people, good prices, and unparalleled customer service. Plus Judi and Dom are just very nice folks.JimLos Angeles and Cincinnati

Best bike shop in Cincinnati! They are very professional and extremely friendly and helpful. I stop by when passing by just to say hello to Dom and Judi. It is a very small and tight shop, but they make it work to keep prices low and still have everything you could need. If not, they will get it ASAP. They always take all of the time required to help me no matter what the problem is or how extensive the issue.

Review №57

I’m way overdue in writing a review of SPUN, the best lbs in Cincinnati. So yesterday, my rear derailleur cable broke and I limped back to the shop all bummed out cause I knew that they were closing for a couple of weeks for remodeling and that Dom would prolly have to hold on to by bike until mid-January before he could get to it. He has one business day left, today, before the shutdown and he said that he was booked pretty solid with other customers. So, with a million things on his mind about shop reconfiguration, what’s he do, he comes in early this morning and gets my bike fixed before tackling all the other stuff that he has to get done. It’s just how Dominic and Judi are folks. BTW also, D prepped my bike for a cross-country ride in 2017 and this cable break is the first thing that’s needed any attention since before that trip...not even one micro-adjustment. That’s prox 6500 miles that the bike has been perfect. Five stars aren’t enough, but that’s all they’ll let me do.

SPUN (Judi and Dominic) treated me like family from the moment I walked in. After a handful of bike projects and custom road bike wheels I still enjoy visiting more each time. They are proud to value customer service above all else and it shows. Whenever service or parts are ready I get a phone call or FB message immediately from Judi which is great as you dont want to be without a bike for long! You might think this comes at a premium but their prices are very reasonable!Ive seen them work on cheap old bikes to high end race bikes and they treat each customer with the same level of respect.Also, Dominic can fix anything and crack jokes while doing it. I always get a laugh from the Campy horror movies he has playing in the background.Again, I cant reco SPUN enough. They put the fun in bike riding whether its road bikes or commuters or BMX. Check em out!
