| - BACKGROUND
Cleaning my garage inspired me.... Well, actually Marie Kondo's book The Life Changing Magic of Tiddying Up inspired me, but finishing my garage was a visual affirmation of what I am capable of accomplishing when I'm inspired. Which began a positive feedback to accomplish more and more and more... which leads me to my bike.
My bike situation was a thorn in my side. I bought my bike ages ago and always liked my bike, but couldn't get it to work right, specifically the tires were always getting flats for no apparent reason. Since I paid a lot for it at the time and felt that it was a good quality bike, I just got frustrated with it constantly being broken and put it outside, I'm not proud to say.
Once my garage was finished, I couldn't wait to get my bike fixed. So I called Landis Cyclery and spoke with the manager Jim.
SERVICE EXPERIENCE
Jim suggested that I take pictures of my bike and email them to him to see if he could even fix my bike before I dragged it in, which was a fantastic idea. I emailed him the photos and he said he could definitely help me and to bring my bike in.
I brought my bike in within the hour and Jim checked out my bike and said he could restore it and still keep the cost reasonable.
Jim called me a week later and said I could come pick up my bike. He replaced my chain, gears, tires, grips and gave my bike a tune up.
The best part of the experience was getting back on my bike and riding it for hours, which makes me feel so free and happy.
CONCLUSION
I would absolutely refer everyone to Jim at Landis Cyclery for all of their biking needs. I feel confident that even if he couldn't do the job or have what you needed, he would give you solid advice. But most likely, he could and would enthusiastically help.
