A+++ recommendation here!Chris is amazing! He could not have been more amazing to work with, professional, friendly, prompt, excellent work that’s changed my whole fitness life!Had a nice Trek sitting on my patio for 2 years, baking in the sun. After 16 months of doing almost no exercise w/ the pandemic, a recent move closer to the beach made me so excited to get riding again but unsure about who to turn to for competent repairs.Firstly, Chris is so responsive — he made communication fast and easy, coming out to my house to fix my bike the next day! Now, not only is my Trek better than new, Chris gave me some great exercises and pointers to help reintroduce me to riding again; love his passion for his sport.Exceptionally knowledgeable, kind and lovely to talk with, Chris did an incredible job with my bike and will be my forever-recommendation whenever anyone needs his skills. Also, a genuinely professional, thoughtful guy who took extra time to tinker and make sure the bike was just perfect for me!See you for my next tune-up Chris — can’t tell you how much I’ve loved riding down to the ocean the past couple weeks.

If you want your bikes to look and ride better than when you first bought them, set an appointment with Chris and get him to your house ASAP! ChrisIs so knowledgeable, respectful and has a great sense of humor. Incredibly fair priced for the hours spent restoring and getting our vintage, mountain and street bikes back to perfection! 15/10!

Had a great experience getting my bike tuned up by Chris. Quick responses over text and email, fit me into his schedule within days, showed up on time, and came in close to the estimate. My bike looks almost new again, and it brakes and shifts probably better than it ever did. Chris is a super nice guy, very experienced, and clearly loves what he does. Will absolutely hire him again when I need my next tune-up.

Had a great experience with Chris fixing mine and my wifes bikes. He took his time, gave us clear insight on what needed to be done and did clean and thorough work. Once he finished with my bike it was in better shape than it had ever been, even when it was new! Chis is also a funny and friendly guy, great to talk to. Bring your bike to him and it will be in the best of hands!

Chris came out and fixed a flat tire on my Vanmoof E-Bike. It was a tricky job as there were a lot of proprietary elements. Chris was very clear with what he would need to do in order to repair it and asked all the right questions before arriving in order to be as efficient as possible. He took a very thorough, systematic approach and has incredible attention to detail with the bikes. The bike looks and rides brand new now. Would absolutely recommend Chris to anyone who needs mobile bike repair in the LA area.

I bought a new bike recently (Retrospec Beaumont 7 Speed) and needed to have it built to safety specifications. Chris was amazing and super informative while he was building my bike! He made sure to go into detail about aspects of the bike in case certain situations arise, even showed me the best way to get on the bike to make sure that I don’t get fatigued during my commute. You can tell he knows what he’s doing and takes a lot of pride and care into his work and will make sure that you’re bike is safe and well taken care of! He’s also a great person to chat with and has amazing stories! He made the couple of hours he took to build the bike go by in a breeze!I can’t recommend him enough and will be going back to him to maintain the upkeep of my new bike!

This is a belated but glowing review for Chris. Based on other great Yelp reviews, I hired Chris to assemble a bike I had purchased – and the bike turned out to have a flaw in its brake system. Chris went above and beyond in explaining and documenting the issue, and helping me deal with the bike maker. It’s rare to encounter someone so knowledgeable, patient, and conscientious. From beginning to end, he was also quick to respond to emails and texts. While he was working on the bike, he also wore a mask the whole time, and was attentive to social distancing. I highly recommend him.

This dude fixed my fixie! Not only did he fix it, he tuned up, hot-rodded the tires, and generally made it go from only bike path, to city-ride! It was awesome. Nothing could be a better service during a pandemic. Who wants to go to to a bike store? Chris comes to you! His level of bike knowledge is absurd. No one should know that much. Anyway, I was really really impressed and very happy with the service!

Review №12

My electric bike had brake problems, etc. Chris is truly a stellar bike mechanic, with an obsessive attention to detail. Not only is he very knowledgable about how to repair faulty bikes, but he is very reliable and personable. What impressed me the most is his didactic approach to repairs: he is process oriented and not transactional like most mechanics. Also, he has a genuine passion for how people relate to their bikes--a passion that I think comes from his years of competing in the ESPN X Games as a professional BMXer. Ill be returning to him for all my bike problems.-Dr. Flores

Highly recommend Hoopty Bikes for any and all bike repair!Chris responded to my inquiry in less than 24hrs with a date for work and an estimate. Having worked with BMXers I know how much they care for their bikes, know how to analyze a bike, and fix it up. Chris cares about his customers and he is going to care for your bike the way he has for his BMX bikes.He has a vast knowledge of all types of bikes and can make cost effective suggestions for yours. Great guy, detailed work, all for a reasonable price. Ill be recommending all my friends and family to him!

My 10- year old son had some issues with his mountain bike & I was simply too busy (& lazy) to take to a shop......thats where Chis & Hoopty Bikes came into the picture. What an AWESOME service.....pulls right up the driveway & BOOM out comes the mobile shop. An hour later the bike was as good as new (actually better)! Repaired, cleaned up & a test drive around the neighborhood and we were good to go! Chris has a wealth of experience and it shows, plus hes a nice guy. Prices were very reasonable & so freakin convenient. Im a fan for life....Chris and Hoopty will be the only call I make for expert bike repairs. Dont hesitate & call today!

I really don’t have an excuse to not have left a review sooner, especially when it’s not like we all have such a busy social life currently. But enough of that, onto the man, the myth, the legend himself, okay I kid but the guy is beyond fantastic and knowledgeable. I mean, it makes sense, he was a professional BMX rider, and I don’t mean the guys out in the woods, I mean, endorsed and sponsored type. If it wasn’t for a savage polar bear attack during the X-Games in Siberia, he’d probably be a playable video game character. He knows bikes, inside and out is what I’m saying. He’s like a savant of sorts when you watch him start to work. Leans in, listens to the bike, almost as if the bike is whispering to him... Yeah, the Bicycle Whisperer...I really appreciated his demeanor, his knowledge and all around pleasantness. That and he doesn’t throw unnecessary things you may not need, just finds the best quality solutions for you if something needs to be done. Legitimately felt like a completely different bicycle and it was custom tailored for myself. Like a nice Tom Ford suit...

Frustrated by my local bike store on 3 different occasions telling me I would have to leave my bike for 2 weeks for a basic service.Doing some online research, I came upon Hoopty Bikes owned by Chris Duncan who provides a mobile bike service. This was perfect for my personal situation.I found Chris to be very personable, professional, and honest. He set up his bike stand in front of my building, and I enjoyed watching in amazement for two hours take my bike apart, clean, adjust, oil, and put it back together. He finished with a test ride and everything met his high standards.He is reasonably priced, well worth it and yes, I would highly recommend him to others.Ride On!

Review №23

I strongly recommend Chris and Hoopty Bikes. Chris is awesome and super nice and such a skilled craftsman with bikes. He will totally take care of your bike and make sure it is fixed up and totally safe. His prices are the same or slightly cheaper than going to a bike repair shop, and it is so much more convenient and easy to have the repair happen at your house. Total no-brainer. Just text him and schedule appointment. Totally worth it. Will be using him again for sure.

Greatest bike repairman I’ve ever encountered; kind, courteous, & quick! My bike was left feeling and looking like a different bike; shifting became smooth, my breaks were more responsive, & he even showed me how to find the proper air pressure for tires! Have recommended him to several friends and they all rave about Hoopty Bikes being their #1 bike repair shop of choice.

Bought my bike a couple of years ago from a shop. It got seasonal use but never get right. I just had Hoopty Bikes come to my house this weekend and it was great. Steve is very personable and professional, but also friendly and I trusted his assessment. I’ve ridden it twice since Hoopty Bike Repair visit and it’s honestly never ridden better. Certainly better than when I bought it! Can be expensive for a house call but I know the work is solid, they are focused on making things mechanically right, and I’ll get better life out of the bike because it was in their hands. great service!

Hoopty Bikes served my needs very well. The response was Immediate; I received an email, appointment time, and estimate. Chris Duncan said hed arrive about 10 a.m. and he was ON TIME!!!!! The service was awesome! He explained all the details of what hed do to repair the bike. He didnt stop at just repairing it...he made certain that the entire bike was in tip-top shape. He made all the necessary adjustments and did a test ride. In addition, he reviewed the safety rules with me to share with the recipient of the bike. I am so confident that the bike I am giving away is safe for this young man to ride. In addition, I plan to share with a friend who has a non-profit that helps young inner-city children to experience mountain biking. Chris was eager to be supportive of such a program.I would highly recommend his business to anyone that needs bike repair and cannot tote the bike to a shop. In addition, his personal attention to ensure quality performance should be reassuring for anyone that is looking for this kind of service.

Hoopty Bikes and Chris D. were amazing! Chris is the ultimate professional who has a true passion and love for bikes. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and prepared. After each of the 5 different repairs, he tested each bike by riding it to ensure it was fixed to perfection. He will be my go to from here on out. No one can match his customer service and attention to detail.

Chris is a wealth of information and support when it comes to bicycles! Hes passionate about serving this special market niche and spent a lot of time with me over the phone, asking all the right questions to determine whether my old bike was worth fixing. In the end, it made more sense to just buy a new bike. His customer service was top-notch and he puts the customers needs first! I highly recommend Chris and Hoopty Bikes :)

Chris of Hoopty is a master with bikes and has passion for his work. This passion translates into reliable and expert service. I requested his service to assemble my new bike. From the first call to the last moment, he was responsive, did great work, explained important things, and overall, went above and beyond. I wish I had another bike for him to assemble because the experience was so positive. I definitely recommend him and will call upon him with my future bike needs.

Chris is a model of excellent customer service. As far as communication goes, he is responsive, to-the-point, timely and straight-forward. While I love road biking, I do not always know what I am talking about and he has helped bridge the language/knowledge gap for me. He is kind, professional, and enjoyable to work with. Chris demonstrated being efficient, detail-oriented, and really knowledgeable when it comes to all things bike related. He is the first person I turn to (and will keep turning to) if I have a question about my bike or need help with something related to my bike. I trust him and his expertise. I could not be more confident in recommending him. Chris, thank you so much for all of your help!!

Review №37

Chris is amazing! My boyfriend and I know very little about bikes, so we had been having a hard time getting one of our road bikes installed onto a new Wahoo smart trainer. I texted Chris a couple nights ago to request service for proper installing it after we had trouble with chain slippage on the higher gears. I sent a video of the problem, and he answered back pretty quickly that he could swing by in a couple hours to help us. He gave us thorough info about any terms of service, his rate, payment method, ETA, etc.Chris arrived on time and immediately knew what to do to fix our issue (basically we were using the wrong cassette, which had come with the trainer but didnt fit our bike). He brought the right cassette we needed, and an hour later, our bike was properly installed on the trainer. Chris tested out the bike throughly and sent us on our merry way.On top of all that, he was super nice and did his best to educate us on what he did and how to care for the bike going forward. Great dude, great service.

Review №39

Had Chris over to do a hydraulic brake pad replacement and a general tuning on my ebike. He was incredibly thorough and did great work - even called the mfg before the appointment to make sure he understood the bike well when he arrived. Turned out that the gears on my relatively new bike were loose and he was able to fix this issue as well. But not only did he fix the issue but he contacted the ebike company to let them know about the gear issue and a design flaw with the rear part of the frame. When I contacted the mfg to discuss having them pay of the additional required service they were happy to do (and mentioned they had already spoken with Chris so understood the issue and that it was clearly under warranty) AND they’re now sending me new back wheels and motors for both of my ebikes that will address this issue going forward. Really nice to work with someone who takes so much pride in their work. My other ebike will need a tuning soon so will look forward with working with Hoopty again.

We had 4 bikes in various states of disrepair, the worst being my wifes and mine, which had been outside for about 4 years. They were so covered in rust I thought for sure they were goners. I contacted Chris and he asked me to text him pictures. I was shocked when he said he could fix them. I was even more shocked when they turned out even better than they were when we bought them. Thats how good he is. Hes also a super-friendly and funny guy. And if you get a chance, ask him to do some bike tricks for you. Hes literally straight out of the X-Games. Thanks again, Chris!

Chris did excellent work on my bike! It is better than when I bought it brand new! He is very knowledgeable about all things concerning bikes and is super friendly about sharing his wealth of experience and expertise. I called to set up an appointment as I was finishing up work on Friday, brought the bike in, and he made quick work of well over a year’s worth of rust and residue from exposure. Within a couple short hours, I was back in the saddle. It used to scrape and grind and creak while riding, but after a visit from Hoopty, this bike rides so smooth, it is like a dream and I don’t know why I didn’t take it into him sooner!Highly recommend! Excellent work!

My very first e Bike was delivered in box and required some assembly. It wasnt difficult to follow the instructions yet, I could tell that the bike didnt feel as smooth as it should and needed adjusting.Rather than haul my bike to a bike shop I researched mobile bike services and came across Hoopty. Chris responded to my email within minutes and then, a few hours later, the Hoopty Bike truck was parked at my house.Chris came prepared with bike hoist and tools to deal with everything my dream bike required. He explained every step and gave me some valuable tips on how to ride and operate my bike.It was an absolute pleasure to deal with Chris and will definitely call on him for ongoing maintenance.

I loved working with Chris! He took a look at two bikes of ours — one recently-purchased cruiser bike for my fiancé that needed some assembly and a tune-up before riding, and the other was my beloved Karate Monkey that I use for trail riding and bikepacking. In both cases, his knowledge and expertise were apparent, and I was pleased that he took the time to explain his repairs, adjustments, and recommendations (Im still new to bike speak and sometimes feel intimidated by it, but Chris was patient in explaining everything to me so that I could understand).I would totally recommend working with Hoopty Bikes. Its super easy to text with him, and he came over to our place out in the Foothills same-day on a Sunday. Prices were very reasonable, and Ive been very happy with his work!

Hoopty Bikes is clearly the place to go with any bike problem. Chris Duncan is nothing short of AMAZING in his knowledge and repair of bicycles. I handed over to him our two terribly neglected and no-longer-working-in-any-way-shape-or-form vintage bikes, and he handed back two miracles. Seriously, had I not known better, I would not have guessed they were the same bikes. They are beautiful, and most importantly, they work and ride PERFECTLY!! Also, I want to note that Chris is a very nice guy who is an excellent communicator. He provided estimates, progress reports and cost details throughout the process.

Hoopty Bikes is an above and beyond bike repair business! There is no question that if your bike can be fixed, Chris will fix it, clean it, and make it as close to new as possible! Chris came out the week I called and fixed all 4 of my bikes in one visit! They all needed various work, from a broken seat to torn tires to bent chains. He brings everything he needs in his van and wont stop until hes made the bike something he would ride. He has such passion for the work. Hes talented, professional, respectful, and fair. I had to tip him because for the quality of the work and the time it took him (4 bikes), I felt his price was too low. I cant recommend him enough!

Chris was so fantastic. He came to me, tuned up my new bike, and left me feeling safe and prepared for a long ride over the weekend. He was very knowledgeable and it’s so comforting to have found Hoopty! I’ll be coming back as a regular :)

Chris is the best. He came to my house, posted up in the driveway and quickly brought my bike back to life.

Chris is not only a terrific mechanic and a truly good guy but, most importantly, is passionate about his work and wont consider a job complete until both the customer and he are 110% satisfied with the results.

Chris Duncan of Hoopty Bikes provided excellent, off the radar service! I highly recommend him. First off, he treated me with such utmost respect and humor, unlike another mobile bike service. He did not make me feel stupid about not knowing bike anatomy or in identifying the problem, like this other bike service. He just warmly asked me for a few pictures and came to my house immediately. He creatively found parking in a part of Los Ángeles that is so difficult to find parking. On top of all that, he was warm, friendly and so funny. He serviced my bike expertly and offered extra services on top of that, suggesting to move back the seat to open it up more ergonomically. He also took professional angled photos of my bike that I love so much that I texted them for fun to friends. Such attention to detail and an obvious love for bicycles that manifests in excellent service. Thanks Chris!

Chris is the man! Very knowledgeable about every aspect of a bicycle and is very happy to share his wisdom with you. He fixed my flat tire and even gave my Takara a thorough inspection to cover some future work that could be done on it. No upselling or sales pitch pressure, just honest and friendly recommendations. Ill be back to see Chris soon!

Perfect in everyway. There is nothing Chris cannot do. No problem to big or small. he is truly a master at this craft and he is by far one of the friendliest people you will meet. DTLA business and restaurants should take a course from this man in how to treat customers.
