They were pretty helpful, and pointed out an upcoming issue on my bike. They didn't push me when I told them that I just didn't have the cash right now to fix it, but I am glad they pointed it out/gave me a pretty reasonable estimate so I can budget for it. I think the person who helped me was named Alex, and he was great!
one of the better bike shops in Minneapolis.
I needed to find an unusual size tube in an emergency for my wheelchair. I called around, and checked online - the soonest I could find was over a week. Freewheel had a stack, with options, for the lowest of the prices I saw, plus buy 3, get the 4th free. They were friendly, and had the products waiting when I arrived.
While I was at the store, my car and phone battery died. I asked to use their phone to call for a jump, which they facilitated, along with charging my phone, then they jumped my car.
Freewheel is an inclusive and friendly environment, and many of my favorite staff have been there for years. It's also my favorite shop because there's absolutely no pretension from the staff. I can walk into the shop in heels and a dress, and I don't get any attitude because I'm not in full biking gear, or shopping for a $5,000 bike. I can buy parts for my brick-on-wheels of a '64 Schwinn Collegiate, and they're in stock and comparatively priced. The shop floor is roomy, they have a free parking lot, and the automatic sliding door is really handy when you're bringing in your bike for repairs. Once one of the employees even helped me special order the last of a specific helmet from the supplier when they were out. So much West Bank Bike Love. Thanks, Freewheel!
Great service, and very helpful in assisting me finding exactly what I was looking for. Will visit again.
I am very appreciative for their assistance, but also, it is rare and wonderful to be able to visit a local bike store and be treated like any other customer and be able to find what I need to purchase.
