They charge way too much for labor. I would expect that from Bike Gallery/Trek corporate chain, but usually local shops are not this greedy. I was about to have kick stand shortened and they wanted $8.00! I rode down to Tomcat Bikes and the guy did it for free in 12 seconds. I gave him a coffee card just because... I mean how cool is that!

Great service and talented shop! Really appreciate the support with normal small things to get my bike back on the road. Just needed a specific bolt, a chain and a shifter cable and they got me going at a great price.

Ive been coming to Joe Bike for 3 years now. Theyve done multiple tune ups and bike fixes for me, all of which felt great! Most recently they helped me complete my first bike build, offering parts advice and install tips. Above all, the crew has been kind and quick to help. Totally recommend.

Joe Bike made my wildest dreams come true. Ive been dreaming of a steel 1x11 for a while and Joe had the perfect inventory to choose from. Unfortunately I live in Washington State, but I was able to chat with them on the phone to determine the perfect fit. They were closing down for a week due to COVID, starting the day after my order and they made an extra effort to box it up and ship. Much appreciated, Im one super satisfied customer! Highly recommend this shop!

It all started with Joe Bike having the bike I wanted — a Marin Nicasio +. Like the bike and have converted it to a fun gravel EBike (fwd). Took it in for 90 day tune up and got to experience activity in the store. Tune up was quick, thorough, and garnished with good bike conversations. Great group and place!

As an experienced bikeshop employee and lasting bicycle enthusiast, I give Joe Bike a solid 5/5. We have been all over the greater Portland area looking for a MTB and found no place more inviting or more positive than Joe Bike. It was by chance that they had a bike, as that is just the way the industry is right now, but that wasnt what earned 5 stars. Their attention to service and explanation of bike features as well as their insight of the bicycle community was unmatched in our vast tour of Portland bikeshops this week.

Very Covid Friendly. I just got a tune up and the change is like night and day. The bike is so smooth now. They even got a bolt in on my front rack that I couldn’t get on.I’ve been here a couple other times for bike lights and they have several option which is nice.

I recently purchased a new gravel bike from Joe Bike and the whole experience was the best I’ve had in a bike shop. I don’t know a ton about bikes and they were super patient and informative. A few days after I bought my bike from them, the chain got gunked up from the factory lube on it and they offered to clean it all up right away. I can’t thank the staff enough, Matthew especially for being so helpful and kind. Huge props to this shop, it’ll definitely be my new go-to.

They screwed up the job, tried to convince me it was fine, then when I insisted on going back to get it corrected they charged me twice the price they quoted me over the phone. Id recommend Portland Bicycle Emporium on Division and 48th.

Some of the kindest, most helpful people Ive ever had the chance to work with. Very knowledgeable staff, and if they dont have what youre looking for they dont hesitate to tell you who does. I really appreciate that every time I come here I get A tier customer service, and I usually come away having learned a thing or too as well.

Magic happens here. They were able to get the Fat Bikes we were looking for that other shops couldnt find. Theyve been just as great after the sale.

Such a great local bike shop! Matthew was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. I feel as if I’ve found a trusted bike doctor to look after my bike. Thank you, Joe Bike!

Brett was great. I walked in, without notice, and they set up my new bike within 15mins. I had tons of questions as a newer biker and he answered them all. Worth the drive from Canada.

Excellent, prompt and personalized customer service.I recently ordered a former demo fork from Joe. When it arrived, a small piece was missing. I contacted Joe about the missing component and he responded in less than 24 hrs with multiple solutions. The issue was resolved extremely quickly with no fuss whatsoever. I highly recommend Joe Bike.

Review №27

Been here twice within a week - both for minor fixes that a seasoned cyclist may know how to do it themselves. Both times, they didnt charge me anything - like a Les Schwab of bikes. Of course, I will return here and give them real business when the occasion rises. Nice to know some businesses still operate on such model.

Review №28

Really great folks! After I took a spill on my bike they diagnosed my shifting issue, fixed my wobbling cam and aligned my handlebars in five minutes after I walked in. Then told me there was no charge. In a city full of great bike shops, Joe Bike stands out.Im so glad to have a shop like this near me.

The other positive reviews are correct. Staff are unsnobbish and friendly, and they seem really happy to help. Will definitely be coming back for the fixes I cant do myself :-)

Best bike shop I’ve ever been to. Stopped by on the first day of a bicycle tour to get some issues worked. Krishna was super nice, extremely helpful. Store has very nice stock of bicycles, parts, helmets, just about anything you may need. Highly recommended.

Review №31

Fantastic bike shop. Employees were knowledgeable and spent two hours with me answering questions. Reasonably priced accessories such as helmets and fenders, unlike other bike stores in town who run at almost double.Certainly geared towards the daily bike commuter with bikes and components that will last. This is a high quality bicycle shop.

Review №32

I went to Joe Bike since my bike was making a terrible noise every time I got into the highest gear. I had taken it to another shop for a full check up, but they werent able to fix it. When I came in, the guy at the front said they were fully booked for at least a week, but he offered to take a quick look. He spent probably 2 minutes with it, tightened a screw, and totally fixed it. I couldnt believe it! Im so appreciative since my bike is totally silent! Definitely going back!

Review №33

This shop is an awesome find when you need bike service. 3 stands with 3 great mechanics, Chis, Tiger & Jessie, who had the SP dynamo part I needed, then set me up with a new cassette & chain installed and dialed in the shifting. Had me on my way fast to the next 400k ride. A bonus was the restaurant next door. thx for the service fellas

I really like the friendly, chill atmosphere. My wife was in the market for a new bike and we were lucky to find it at Joes Bike Shop. The great guys working in the shop built her bike up and had it ready super quick! Thanks for the great service!

Review №38

I dont know much about bikes except how to ride one. Sometimes bike shops can be kind of snobby about this. Joe Bike was the opposite of that. I got a rather old, definitely decrepit bike serviced here for a very reasonable price (especially compared to the other shops in this area). The service people are both friendly and helpful. Ill definitely be coming back!

Review №39

I stopped in to get some advice on what I thought was a broken axel on my front wheel and if the potential cause could be from my fork. One of the gentlemen working (whos name I did not get. Black hair, wearing all black today, Monday, 09/23/19) was more than willing to take a look. It took him all of a few minutes to diagnosis the problem. After going over the issue with me, he applied the necessary adjustments, and then took a couple extra minutes to check out my brakes and wheel. I asked if I could pay him for his time, but he declined - simply stating to remember them the next time I need to purchase something. I really appreciated him providing his expertise, and for being accessible while doing it. Despite how much time Ive spent in and out of bicycle shops, I still find engaging with some mechanics and employees as intimidating and not worthwhile. This was an extremely positive experience.

Review №40

The quintessential neighborhood Local Bike Shop. Theyve always been wonderful sharing advice, fixing that little noise, and at a really reasonable price. I drool over the new bikes in the window. Someday.. This shop is my default stop off on the Lincoln street bikeway for commuting and for fun-rides. Support your local bike shop!

The best in town. Joe Bike consistently exceeds even their own expectations; delivering the highest quality customer service, attitude, products, and enviornment, they are a joy to do business with. I go well out of my way to patron their fine establishment and recommend them to everyone! The whole crew is phenomenal and they should be so proud of the work they do! I am one loyal customer, Ill tell you whhat.

Review №44

This place has won my business for all future cycle repairs and tune-ups. My left handbrake had fallen apart and my rear inner tube had popped (all within 30 seconds of each other), so I walked my bike to this store since it was close by. They were going to close in less than an hour, so I was expecting to have to leave my bike overnight and find another way to commute to work in the morning. Instead, the friendly staff immediately greeted me as I walked in, asked what was wrong with my bike, and got to work. I could tell they knew what they were doing in how promptly and efficiently they were inspecting and repairing my bike, which helped me establish trust quickly as a first-time customer. I was charged a very decent (and cheaper than I expected) price for the repair, and I was out before they even closed. Will definitely be back soon. Thanks guys!

Review №48

I took my bike apart so I could paint it. It went back together fine, but I could no longer get into 8th gear. I stopped in a Joe Bike to see if they could help. Turns out it was a screw in need of a spacer that was blocking 8th gear. 5 minuets and a whole lot of friendly service later, I was on my way. A great, local bike shop

I needed air in my tires. I stopped in. I was so stunned; they were incredibly generous with their time, helpful addressing my questions...overall exceeded expectations, particularly because they were on the verge of closing! I will definitely go back as needed, and wish this was the shop I took my bike to when it was having more (to me) complicated issues! Thank youuuuu!

Review №51

Friendly knowledgeable staff. They took the time to explain all the lighting options that they have available (and they have some really cool options for hub generated lighting). They were not bike snobs (an unfortunately usual bike shop trait in town I have found). I will be going back to Joe Bike.

Al
Review №52

Great folks with real passion for bikes. Real bikes that get ridden for daily purpose, not carbon fiber trunk ornaments. Though the shop itself is small, they have access to far more than can be seen, and the staff possess the knowledge to get the right bike to the right person, or to build something from scratch if that bike doesnt exist yet.

Ruth was super friendly, knowledgeable, helpfully and very professional about providing an estimate for the repair/replacement of my bike, after having been run over by an errant motorist. She provided multiple options, took the time to explain each one in detail. I would highly recommend Joe Bike, and Ruth.

Review №55

Stopped by to have my 12yr old sons breaks/gearing fixed. We werent in any rush and planned on just leaving it there. However, Ruthie greeted us immediately and just started working out the kinks. Within a few minutes and a few bucks later, she made a crappy kids bike functional and safe again. Ruthie was awesome and we will definitely bring our bikes back to this shop when needed, as a result. As Todd from Bojack Horseman would say Hooray!!..not every Portland bike shop is a rip-off!!!

I had just moved fourteen miles from town and wanted to true my back tire on my day off. I work nearby and so looked for a shop around that was open. I went down to Joe Bike and was taken care of right away. The guys were interactive, friendly, and worked with a sense of urgency. I have been looking for a shop to frequent (hopefully I wont need to mich, other than tune ups) and these guys are in the running for that spot.

Got a new job in the area and rode my bike to work today. I cant believe I left my lock at home, but it wont happen again. I went to Joe Bike on my lunch break and purchased a new lock that mounts on my bike. They let me borrow a screw driver to install the mount, filled my tires for me and didnt seem frustrated when my new chip card wouldnt function properly. Even though they were obviously busy, they remained friendly and professional. Thanks guys!

If only the doctors offices worked as well as these guys. By no means a mechanic, I brought my bike in with a flat unsure of the cause. The two guys inside were already working but quickly stopped to say hi and investigate my problem. He diagnosed the issue and pointed out future things to keep an eye on. I even learned a few things to take better care! I just walked in here and I thought theyd make me wait a few days leaving my bike there! Turns out theyre really quick and good at what they do. And within the hour I was riding away. Definitely returning for future work and advice

Went there to get what I thought was a flat (which was actually just my air pump broken I found out). But instead of just airing up my tire and letting me go on my way, they replaced the still fine tube and charged me $17!!!! Absolutly rediculous, unessary work done just so they could charge me. There is no exscuses for that and quite a shameful business model

After trying out a lot of shops, this has been my go-to place for several years for parts, repair and advice.

Review №88

From the moment I passed Joe Bike late one night while they were closed I knew I was looking at something special. The warm windows sent out a glow as friendly as their staff and the lights shone down on some colorful accessories and blingy bikes. When I wandered in on a Saturday I felt included in the vibe of excitement as they discussed a custom bike build with another customer and helped her get set up with a sweet Soma mixte build. Their rates for tune ups are spot on and they stock a great selection of commuting machines and accessories to handle the gnarly PDX weather. I was so impressed with their service and proximity that I bought my friend a bike tune-up that he desperately needed. Im confident theyll get his bike ship-shape when he eventually takes it in for service. Thanks Joe Bike!
