I was so pleased with the service that I received! I felt like I never have much time for myself and wanted to do something I enjoyed. When I arrived, my bike and helmet was ready to go! I enjoyed my ride lots, discovered a new park nearby and took in the beautiful scenery. I really appreciate this bike shop and the Owner. Thank you so much!
Imbert (owner) and Jose provide a terrific experience for novices and expert riders. Ive been going for 12 years and purchased 2 racing bikes, 3 hybrids (one of his rentals and 2 new), and 3 kids bikes there. The team treats people with incredible customer service. And they service any bike, with any problem fast and with pride - like its their own. Ive been riding for 35 years and worked with bike shops all over the world. Im happiest here, and it is the best customer service Ive seen in NYC. No one comes close.
Love Master Bike! They are so helpful for everything from minor tweaks and adjustments to new gear for my bike. They also have a great selection of accessories and clothing for you and your bike! Thanks Master Bike!!
I have been riding bikes in NYC for more than 50 years and I have patronized many bicycle stores. Master Bike is by far the best shop I have ever used. Imbert and Jose are warm and knowledgeable, and the mechanics are great. I highly recommend them to all cyclists.
I had a great experience here! They fixed up my hybrid bike with new tires and chains. They were so nice and the bike felt like new.
Master bike shop on the upper west side is the absolute best! No issue is too big or too small-service is always friendly-the only shop we will go to for all things bicycles!
Excellent service! I dropped my bike off on a Fri night for a tune up, and even though they dont normally service bikes over the weekend, they managed to get it done in time for me to pick up Sat afternoon. The bike looks and feels brand new.
During this crisis my daughter and I were looking to purchase bikes for exercise and transportation. I emailed Master Bike, describing what we were looking for and they said to come on over and they would have the perfect fit. Within 15 minutes we had 2 awesome bikes with baskets and bells and of course helmets. The price was beyond great and they were super nice. If you need a bike this is the place to go!!! They also rent bikes. When I have visitors in town I always send them to Master Bike for quality bike rentals. Plus, they are close to Riverside Park if you are looking for a place to ride! Master Bike services all types of bikes including the highest end bikes for serious cyclists like my husband!!!Master Bike Shop265 W 72nd St, New York City, NY 10023-2722
Master bike is the best! Great service, expert mechanics, overall wonderful experience. Thanks to Imbert and everyone.
I was so upset with this bike store. My rear wheel was stuck. I bring bike there and left overnight . And on next day nobody even started to watch what’s happening with my bike. I told them I need it so fast if possible. No one care about that. They told me a lot bikes for repair. I understand that. But I brought overnight. 24 hours, of course they not work 24, but 8-12 hours from this 24 they work. I know a few repair stores at 145/Amsterdam (yes far away but fast and very good) they always help me in 1 hour when I came there. Sometimes if no line even faster, depend what happens.
Excellent service every time I go. Also, their advice and recommendations (e.g. tires) have worked very well for me.
Amazing store. Just bought my first bike there and was lucky enough to get the model I want and in my size. Jose was patient and answered all my questions and adjusted bike - super happy about experience
Great local shop with a wide selection and a really helpful staff.
Excellent bike shop! Ive been a cyclist for decades and dont entrust my bikes to just anyone. The mechanics at Master Bike are top-notch, and have resolved annoying issues other shops could not. They clearly enjoy what they do, and do it very well. The whole staff is warm and friendly and knows their products. They have a great selection of bikes and accessories for recreational riders and racers alike. Their prices are fair and will give you more than your moneys worth in time, attention and follow-up service. Master Bike is everything youd hope for in a bike shop: selection, price, service, attention to detail, great mechanics and that indefinable local bike shop vibe that makes it a pleasure to walk in the door.
Nothing but great service at Master Bike. Was purchasing a new bike and called ahead to see what was in stock. The staff were able to hold a bike until I got to the store during the high demand period for bikes. Since purchasing, I’ve gone back to the store for minor service calls and the staff always fixed issues promptly and did so as a courtesy, which exceeded my expectations.
Great store and service! I bought 5 bikes here for the past 8 years for all in my family. Full heartedly recommend!
I have been looking for a certain bike for 6 months but couldnt find one due to Covid. Well I happen to find Master Bike in NY and they had it in stock. I emailed them to see if it was still available and Manuel emailed me back right away. The bike was available and he would ship it which made me even happier since a lot of other shops wont ship these days. The entire process from the first email to my bike arriving was a little over a week. The bike is in perfect condition and I couldnt be happier. Manuels customer service about the bike and shipping is above and beyond. He answered all of my questions and honestly its hard to find this kind of service these days. Thank you Manuel and Master Bike!! 🙂
Came in for a pair of spin shoes and the team was so helpful. I brought my own cleats and they helped fit them to my new shoes. Super friendly and feels good to support local business!
The best bike shop that I have ever used--and Ive used many over 25 years.What makes them the best? Imber cares about solving my problem in any way possible. I enjoy doing basic bike maintenance myself, but if I run into something I cant handle or dont have a tool, Imber helps me. Hes the best!
I love this bike shop, I love the bikes and the equipment they are state of the art! The service is exceptional friendly and informative. The owner is terrific too!I have tried other bike shops but this is my favorite!I purchased 3 of my daughters bikes here as she grew up! I got my bike and my families bikes here also ! The service is exceptional, they take you quickly, they help you out and you always learn something new about biking. I highly recommend this place. Everyone I’ve ever recommended loves it too!
Rented a Specialized road bike here, Excellent bike shop!
Excellent selection of fabulous bikes! The owners and the staff are all very helpful. They have a great range of bikes for every level of bike rider. I recently bought a bike from them and they are so accommodating with helping me fine tune the bike. Great service always! Thank you!!!
My boyfriend recently got back into riding and was looking for a new bike. It was very hard to find bikes around the city or even online due to the pandemic. We searched and found several places with reputable bikes available. We came across this shop and the people were friendly and very helpful. They had the bike available in store and helped with the sizing of the appropriate bike for my boyfriend, he’s 5’ 11”. The store even checked to see how my boyfriend was enjoying the bike a few days later. It’s great to see such great customer service, not many stores still do that. My boyfriend has had the bike for a few days and he is very ecstatic about the way he rides around the city. Thank you very much for all your help!
Friendly and fast service, knowledgeable staff. They let my son test drive his bike before we purchased it so we knew it was a good fit. We are very happy with our purchase.
I brought my bike in for a tune up and they did a fantastic job. I’m pretty sure my bike works better now than when I first bought it. I will certainly be coming back for all maintenance and any future purchases.
Quick, efficient, professional, great prices!Even though I arrived a half hour earlier than my appointment time, the bike was ready for my test drive. They quickly addressed my needs and goals with professional advices and consultation. Very friendly environment. I will recommend Master Bike Shop to all of my friends!
I feel like bike shops in the city can be pretty hit or miss, and these guys are definitely hit! Master Bike was the only shop in the City that had the bike I was looking for in stock and when I got there it was an amazing experience. I’m still pretty new to cycling, and not only was everyone was friendly and helpful, I never felt taken advantage of or pressured to buy something more expensive than needed—in fact, one of the reps that helped me suggested less expensive pedals and a more reasonably priced helmet than I’d expected. My only complaint is that they’re about 100 blocks north of me, and I wish they closer because they will absolutely be my LBS going forward!
Great service, very reasonable price level and quality selections!We got our son’s first bike from Master Bike. It was our second bike shops before making the purchase. It was very busy but as soon as we walked in and grabbed one of the staff and he helped us with picking the right one very quickly and let our toddler try riding it on the street. Little did we know, the staff who helped us turned out to be the owner himself - who was extremely kind and knowledgeable. Prices are very reasonable and service is quick! They don’t push you into buying more expensive ones but also give you honest opinions. We got a toddler’s Giro helmet too and the price was better online. We would definitely come back to Master Bike again as my son grows out of his current one.
Not only a bike shop, but champions, in my opinion, for coming to the aid of a neighbor. I love this place for their warm hospitality! Highly recommended by me.
If youre looking for a bicycle shop to purchase a bicycle for yourself or holiday gift look no further than Master Bikes.Im an avid cyclist for over 30 years and have purchased quite a few bicycles. The help provided by Imbert, (owner), was amazing. He was able to track down the bicycle I was after when no other bike shop could. He also gave me great advice on how to upgrade the bike in the future within my budget.Ive visited the shop since my purchase for maintenance to the bicycle and felt like he is not after my money but into providing great service. I guess its because Imbert is a cyclist and still passionate about the sport.i have found my bike shop for many years to come and hope your experience at Master Bikes mirrors mine.Best,Ari
I only have good things to say about Master Bike Shop. The close-knit, caring staff assembled my factory-delivered XC bike for me in excellent fashion, and they maintain it as if its their own. They feel responsible for your bike and work to ensure you always ride happily. My highest recommendations.
I got a flat tire on my electric scooter on my way home from work on a Thursday evening. I brought it into the shop Right before they closed and they got it back to me on Monday afternoon. Everyone at the shop was very nice, and my scooter is back to perfect condition. I will definitely be using this shop again for any issues with my scooter in future!
Great bike shop! I cant speak highly enough of Imbert and his team at Master Bike. Ive been a cyclist for decades and dont entrust my bikes to just anyone. The mechanics at Master Bike are top-notch, and have resolved annoying issues other shops could not. They clearly enjoy what they do, and do it very well. The whole staff is warm and friendly and knows their products. They have a great selection of bikes and accessories for recreational riders and racers alike. Their prices are fair and will give you more than your moneys worth in time, attention and follow-up service. Master Bike is everything youd hope for in a bike shop: selection, price, service, attention to detail, great mechanics and that indefinable local bike shop vibe that makes it a pleasure to walk in the door. Go to Master Bike!
Got a lovely bike for my son at this UWS bike shop while walking by recently. The sales person was super friendly and nice. They assembled it on the spot and there was no sales pressure whatsoever. A man from the neighborhood came in asking for a minor tune up and they oiled the chain for free. Overall, a great experience!
Awesome guys..awesome shop. shop local as you will not be disappointed.helpful, passionate and understanding. fabulous place
Great service and mechanics. Took the time to discuss how I wanted to rebuild the bike. Excellent work. I will definitely come back for further service
Great place. Nice staff. Prices aren’t the lowest but they also aren’t the highest. Very busy but quick to help and try to get people in and out as fast as they can.I rented a road bike for the day. Not a terrible bike, certainly nothing new/nice but it was an alright bike. Only paid $75 for the whole day (24 hours so you could bring it back the next day). For anyone thinking about getting into cycling, not a bad way to test the waters!
Great shop -- truly local business at its best. Weve been super happy with the bike we bought here and additional accessories. They just repaired some bent spokes and tuned the bike up -- great job, and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks!
Certainly the best bike shop in New York.I bought my bike a couple of years ago from Imbert. I ride a lot. Every time I bring it in for service they perform magic. I ride away with a bike that looks, sounds, and performs like a new bike. Thank you Master Bike.They also have the right selection of accessories. I’ve been consistently happy with what I’ve bought there (shoes, helmet, lights, water bottles, etc).
Today I had the pleasure to buy not only 1 but 2 bikes for me and my best friend. I called earlier to Master Bike to make sure it was open and the guys were super helpful and even invited me to come in to check it out in person. I had called several other stores and they were all rude because Im not a pro, Im just a regular guy who wanted a good bike and had questions. When my roommate and I got there they answered all our questions and were super knowledgeable and patient. They recommended different ones until we found the perfect ones. The team was friendly all the way. Ill definitely be back to purchase other things. Amazing team and amazing store. Thank you guys!
My first experience with the crew at Master bike shop was in early April. I was greeted with a warm smile and helping hand. I was new to road cycling and was grateful for the patience and guidance I received. specially when I asked the same question several times because the answer did not register the first couple of times. 😂I returned several times throughout the last few months with more questions and to purchase a few essential items like the spare tube and co2 cartridge for flat fix in the go. Finally I decided to upgrade to a more speedy yet smooth Tarmac Ultegra DI2, who would of known it would only take a short couple of months for me to fall in love with the sport and the amazing crew at Master Bike Shop. It is my Cycling home and I would not stop by another shop unless stranded somewhere remote. I strongly suggest that if you have any cycling 🚴 needs, from equipment to just a couple of questions and a friendly smile, please stop by. You will not regret it. 🙏
Manuel, Jose, Imbert & team are the absolute best. They helped me when purchasing my bike + accessories, and alerted me when there was a recall on the bike I ordered. I took it to the shop and was in an out in 5 minutes. They are very transparent, communicative and trustworthy. So lucky to have found them!
My Master Bike experience was great! The staff members were friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating. Thank you for making my bike purchasing process go as seamlessly as possible!
Love Master Bike! I bought my bike from here a few months ago. Helpful and friendly staff Manuel and Imbert set me up with the perfect bike at a reasonable price. I got a great helmet, bike lock, and bell too. If something ever happened to my bike, I know I could bring it into the shop and they would fix it right up.
New to NY and word on the street was this was a good place. Been cycling for 30 years, what a gem this place was, great staff and nice selection. Im in physical therapy for a hip problem and was told to get different shoes by my PT. Jose knew exactly the problem and recommended the same clip as my PT. Looks like they are real pros at the repairs too.
I spoke via email with Manuel about a bike they had available. He was very professional, friendly and quick to respond. I decided not to get the bike this week as we are just about to go on vacation but will definitely be getting back in touch with him and with this shop.. Excellent Service, Friendly, Helpful staff .
Now my go to bike shop. Friendly, professional and great work! My tuned up bikes seem new!Highly recommend!
Turned my sons bike around in just a few hours on an incredibly busy day. Very thankful. They did a flawless job and fixed up his broken derailleur and hanger perfectly. Competively priced. My go to bike shop going forward! Thank you guys!
Just got my girl a great bike here, affordable, good price and great service + it came with free check ups! very happy I got the bike in person and not online.
Imbert Jimenez has operated the city’s best bike shop for more than a decade. His mechanics are highly skilled and apply their expertise to all kinds of bikes. If you want your bike repaired correctly, go to Master Bike.
Good bike shop to go to. Fast and quick. Good people and vibe. They will further help you to get yourself and your bike safe on the road. Low price and that. I Highly recommend this shop.
I ride my bike to and from work every day which amounts to 13 miles. My job is on 72nd St. so needless to say I’m a very good customer of theirs. They are always friendly and are not trying to push you to buy things you don’t need like at Toga bike shop. The owner and the guys that work there are super friendly and nice. without a doubt they are my preferred place to go.
I’m new to the cycling world wanted to do it for years but due to the pandemic & the need to find something to do during quarantine & enjoy safely long term. I jump in feet first... I was doing extensive research on what kind of bike I wanted and from what Bike shop to buy from. I read reviews from so many shops in Manhattan & The Bronx which led me to Masters Bike. Their reviews were great and I see why. I send them an email and very quickly it was responded By text by Manuel, who was professional and a gentlemen.. he set aside the bike I wanted.. A Specialized Sirrus 1.0 in black and the last one. When to shop to pick up the bike.. his staff led by Imbert is amazing make you feel at home, gave me an honest no BS advice they just honest not trying to oversell you stuff you don’t need.. They have an selection of bike for all different palettes and accessories.. in the back of the shop they have their repair shop. I did also buy a helmet I need. They are and will be my bike shop in NYC..,In my honest novice opinion Best Bike Shop in NYC.
Bought a gift certificate bike tune-up from Master Bike on West 72nd for a friend. The bike was CLEANED and the mechanical parts were checked, oiled, and adjusted. They replaced a warn brake part which was above expectations. My friend says the techs were very friendly and easy to work with and the bike rides great. Thank you.
Bought my road bike here a year ago as I was getting into cycling. Everyone at the store is super helpful. Theyve also done a really nice job whenever Ive brought the bike in for fixes or tuneups. Its a great place. Highly recommended!
If not for the help of the entire staff at Master bike I’d still be looking . Instead I came across their site left a msg and received a text from Manuel introducing himself as well as giving the specs of a bike that literally met and exceeded all my needs. Seriously the bike is perfect! Less than 24 hours later I rolled out the front door with the biggest cheese grin possible. I swear the entire staff has a hand in making this happen. I won’t be going anywhere but Master BIkeThank you again!🙌🏻
Everyone at Master Bike was really helpful and quick in repairing our bicycles after we hadnt ridden them in awhile. A great neighborhood bike shop!
Friendly, and knowledgeable! Ill be back!
Great shop! I’m very happy with the work they did for me and the communication during the process!!
Best bike shop on the upper west side! I brought my electric scooter for repair after going to 2 other shops that gave me nasty service and they could not have been more helpful. They repaired it in 1 day and knew what they were doing. Overall great service, and very reasonable prices. Highly recommend!
Great shop. Great staff and service. Notified me about a specific recall by manufacture, which shows they really care. This is a place you must go check out if need a bike.
Someone walked out into the street just in front of me when I was riding across 72nd street on my 1975 Schwinn. I hit the brakes so hard that one of my cables broke. Fortunately I didn’t hit the guy. Master bike came to my rescue. I brought the bike over and they were able to fix it in a few minutes for a very reasonable price. On top of that they were extremely nice. Highly recommended.
Great local UWS bike shop. It has been difficult looking to upgrade bikes since COVID, but Manuel at Masters was able to make a recommendation based on my needs/what they had in stock. It was super convenient to text back and forth before coming to the shop, and the bike was all set up for a test ride when I came in. All in all, a great experience and excited to have a great local bike shop as I transition from touring to road bikes.
They’re always super helpful for routine issues and recently helped with a major repair. It’s great to have a neighborhood bike shop like this.
A serious biker told me that Master Bike was the best in NYC and Westchester county. He was right. It was worth the drive into the city. They repaired my bike quickly, were very professional, and the cost was reasonable. I will definitely be returning for a tune up and maybe someday a new bike.
Professional & friendly service. I took my bike for a tune-up. They did a beautiful job and my bike looks like it is brand new.
The best way to move around NYC is by bicycle. This place has great customer service, especially from the owner Imber, he is the best! They will go out of their way to help you, by giving you a deal or repairing watch ever you need. I bought my bicycle, helmet, Ulock, Pinhead, lights, all here and I am satisfied with their quality and service.
They had the perfect bike for the city (Brompton) and they were great in providing guidance on how to best secure it.
Called in for a Specialized Allez Elite which has been impossible to find everywhere from the shortage. The guy on the phone ran down to check the inventory to double check and answer my questions and had the bike ready out of box within a few hours. Accessories in the shop were also fairly priced and they recommended the more practical components rather than just trying to upsell. Honest people, great service, will definitely be back.
Great shop. Been coming here for years and have always been really happy with the work. They’ll go out of their way to help in ways most other shops wouldn’t. You won’t be disappointed.
Manuel and the staff were very responsive, went out of their ways to help me with my bike. Their collection is large and very competitively priced. I definitely recommend.
Very accommodating, and got a great bike out of it! Recommend these guys highly.
I had a great experience at Master Bike! Brought in an old bike that I got from a friend, and they did a few little fixes on it literally for free! Thank you so much, guys, and stay safe!
Had a great experience. Ordered a bike for my daughter online and it was on my door step the next day. Thanks guys!
Love this bike shop. Their service is quick and everyone is really helpful and professional. They know their stuff. Makes me happy to see them busy all the time!
Manuel was great - talking me through potential orders and offering a good range of alternatives. Delivery was on time and communication through it was on point. Love the bikes.
Amazing neighborhood bike shop. I went in with a question about repairing my daughter’s bicycle. They couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful. Will definitely go back for any needs in the future.
Excellent bike shop. I bought a bike from them, and the price and service has been excellent. Recommended absolutely.
We thought about getting a new single speed bike - and after sending an email to ask for some details we got a response quickly from Manuel, and within a couple of days went to the store and picked up our new bike 🙏 the staff was kind, quick and thoughtful in servicing, explaining and finding the right fit for me and my partner - happy we discovered this shop and would recommend it to anyone looking for advice/gear
Great guys. They have helped me time and again to keep my bike (and life) running smoothly. When my rear wheel was stolen, they offered to try and fit some used wheels they had lying around. I ended up paying half of what I would’ve had to for a new tire. These guys prove time and time again that they are there to help you, not cheat you. Go see them, they will treat you right.
The best Bike Shop in NYC hands down!!!!!! These guys are amazing and will take care of you 110%. i really needed a bike during the covid pandemic and i could not find a bike anywhere. i was recommended to them by a friend and i was able to purchase a specialized sirrus online. After the purchase, i received a call from Manuel who wanted to confirm my order, my height, and bike frame size. The very next day the bike was delivered to my front door, completely assembled and ready to ride! Manuel followed up during the whole process from purchase, delivery and even after riding the bike! He made sure i was completely satisfied, if not he would refund me and pick up the bike. The best customer service ever. i highly recommend this shop and would rate them 100 stars if i could. Thank you Manuel! You guys ROCK!
Really friendly and helpful. I contacted them through text and got a response right away. They even sent me pictures of the bicycles I was asking about.
Great service, Great Communication, Got My Electric Scooter Breaks Working In No Time, Thank you!!
For bigger jobs or just moving over a freewheel to a different wheel, Master Bike’s mechanics have always been efficient and professional - doing great work without charging too much
The salesman was terrific and super helpful. I love this place!!!
I needed to replace a stolen fixed gear bike in the midst of a pandemic. Most of the other stores were running out of stock, I reached out to Master Bike and they said to come in as they had a few options. They remembered me reaching out the following morning, immediately pointed me to the options which were exactly what I was looking for. no awkward upsetting, just getting me the bike I was describing and then adjusting it fit my specific needs. Their mechanics did the adjustments, traded out a few parts, while I waited and I was on my way in moments. It was painless and got me what I needed.
Came in for the Standard Tune-Up and to replace a few components on my bike. They got the service done on time and at a fraction of the cost of the Trek store down the street quoted me. They are a very busy shop because they do a good job and they make sure the customer gets what theyre looking for.
Manuel was very nice and answered all my questions. Definitely recommend this bike shop
Outstanding customer service, Manuel was a pleasure to deal with over email and then when I went to the shop Imbert and the rest of the team were all very helpful & friendly. Well worth the visit.
Great bike store and repair can also rent bikes for the day
Imbert is the man!!! The team is great and they go over and beyond.
Good bike shop and service, I have know about this shop for years. The know bikes. 🚲
Great service, friendly and extremely helpful! Like, they went beyond to make sure I was comfy with my bike.I had originally messaged them in order to find out if they had MTB gloves (I didnt know Google had the message feature either!). they were helpful via message; responded quickly and on point with information about what I was looking for. So I ended up driving into NYC since they were the only ones around that had them in stock.Once I got there, I just mentioned the young mans name, whom I was texting with, and he immediately got up and had my gloves picked out in different colors and sizes. He was informative about the gloves and their fit.I also ended up getting a hard tail Mountain Bike from the store. I wasnt planning on it, but I saw the bike, asked about it and was given all the info I needed in order to make sure I was getting the appropriate bike for what I needed (trail riding). They got the bike trail ready for me in minutes and even helped resize the seat for me so I would be comfortable during my rides.Again, great service, respectful and knowledgeable staff, will definitely go back once I need an upgrade for downhill.
Super helpful neighborhood bike shop! Great service for even simple stuff like lost screws and flat tires! Thanks!
Awesome professional atmosphere. GREAT DYNAMIC BIKES AT REASONABLE PRICES 🚴♀️
