Great, friendly buzz, exceptional service, reasonable service prices, and special thanks to Sam for making my recumbent bike safer to ride with a tall flag and a secure basket. Dmitri (owner) and Chris were also helpful and friendly. Ivan got my bike computer installed as well. These folks are problem solvers. Top drawer!
Best bicycle shop in Denver hands down. The owner Dimitri along with his staff are very knowledgeable and have been able to help solve any issues I have ever run across. Considering I work on my bike reliable, friendly, and professional service are a must for me and they always go above and beyond. And the new location is great. Keep it the awesome work guys(and girls)! Cannot recommend enough
This place is incredible. Just got my stolen tire replaced and had a few more touch ups and I couldn’t be happier about my experience. They were so kind and caring and welcoming.10/10–would recommend check this place out!Shout out to eric for being so great to work with.
If youre expecting this to be like other secondhand businesses, and anticipating a bad experience? You can relax. The team here is experienced, compassionate, chatty, and warmhearted. They genuinely care about the art of bicycle mechanics, and they care about supporting and educating their community.Speaking as someone with experience working in the bicycle industry? This is, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the very best bicycle shop in the city.
Great indie shop that knows bikes! Owner Dimitri is personally involved, professional, and thinks outside the box. Important when dealing with old bikes that a number of other shops said no, we wont touch it, but here, buy a new bike. My beloved vintage Schwinns got excellent care! Will definitely return!
Super friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend.
What a wonderful business! Each time Ive visited Ive been greeted warmly and been well taken care of. They were even in the middle of moving locations (extremely stressful) and still took the time to take care of my concern even though I mistakenly wandered up to the new location which was still actually not even opened yet. Great people!
Best bike shop Ive ever been in! Dmitri & the whole crew care about the community and adding positivity to this world. Theyre down to help you with your bikes across the spectrum - they custom built up an incredible touring bike for my cousin with all fresh parts, and theyve got tons of used pieces if you need a fix on a (financial & environmental) budget. Ive been going to Z Cycle for 3 years and I cannot recommend them enough.
Lovely shop! Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Thank you Melissa for the beautiful customer service. Rode around town with a smile and inflated tires after a visit to Z Cycle!
This place is too cool! The guy quickly fixed my bike and was able to explain to me the issue and show me how to prevent it from happening again. Love that they are in Cap Hill now!
I showed up because I was having issues with my hydraulic disc brakes. Melissa was super helpful and even let me borrow a bleed bucket to get the air out of the system. It was exactly what I needed and they helped me out for free! Its awesome to have such a nice bike shop in my neighborhood. Ill definitely be coming back here regularly
Five stars? There arent enough stars in the night sky to accurately represent Z.Quality work. Community engagement. They will sell you on the work you need rather than the money they want from you.
Amazing shop and the staff are the best. Helped me get my bike on the road. It needed a little more than I could afford at the moment. Staff was not pushy or judgmental. They helped me with what was immediately needed to ride. Explained everything they were doing and why. I will 100% come back for the rest of the work I need done and any accessories or future bike needs I may have. Thanks to Melissa specifically for all your help!
Seek out this local cycle shop. Personal service and great advice. Gave me a site to search to help in my own repairs. Generous and kind. Good stuff. Ill return for all my cycle needs. Thanks guys and gal.
I was there for 45 mins and had dozens of questions for Melissa. Every single one of them was answered patiently and warmly, even with a crowded store. No gate keepy or disgruntled bike mechanics in sight (a usual dynamic I find in shops). I felt really seen and listened to and they are stoked to be building me a bike!
Two stars for being friendly and nice, but we are very disappointed in our experience. We got a flat tire while biking on vacation. My wife found this shop and saw it had all these great reviews so we stopped in. They patched it and we were on our way. We set the bike in the yard at the airbnb and went out for the night. The next morning the tire is flat again. We hadnt ridden the bike at all. We decided to go back and give them the chance to make it right. We took an hour of our time to drive back over, have them fix it, and then drive back to the airbnb. We set the bike in the yard again and went out to do something else. When we got home the tire was flat again. They should have just provided a new tube and installed it. I would have been happy to pay for it. We didnt want to come back a third time so we went to a different shop where they installed a new tube quickly with no issue. We have been riding the bike all morning and its fixed. We wasted money and a lot of time going back and forth to Z Cycle and ultimately had to spend additional time and money somewhere else. Very frustrating and we cant recommend coming here. The owner and staff were very nice but nice dont pay the bills. We thought about coming back a third time to see if they could make it right but lost confidence after two bad experiences so we had to go elsewhere. Maybe we just had a bad experience and this a rarity but we couldnt recommend coming here in good faith.
Thanks guys. great tech and immediate service.leave a tip for the crew
Fantastic experience here! I was having issues with the front brake and had several other shops take a look. The guy had me bring my bike in and in about 10 minutes had it riding smoothly. I will definitely be coming back if I have any future issues!
What an awesome store! I popped in with the need of a new tube(I lost a fight to a presta valve and it wasn’t pretty) Mia at Z cycle shop hooked me up and within about 20 minutes I was on my! If there’s a nicer, more friendly bike shop near Cap Hill, in Denver… I don’t wanna know about it ;)
What a great experience I just had. Needed a couple spokes fixed. Dimitri fixed it on the spot. Super personable and knowledgeable. I found my local bike shop mechanic.
Best bike shop in Central Denver! Theyve recently moved into their new location at 9th and Corona in the heart of Cap Hill. For repairs, tune ups, or to have a bike built up specially for you, the friendly mechanics at Z Cycle will get you on the road in style! 👍🚲🚴 Check them out on FB and Instagram.
Walked in to get a quick part replacement and these guys replaced it with a second-hand part on the spot (save da erf) and they were so kind and helpful!! 10/10
Dimitri is THE MAN and all the staff care about your whip and getting you ripping on the trails. Busted tires? Fixo friendo. Brake upgrade? No drag sister. Fork rebuilds? Safe, bruv. I take my hard tail there for maintenance and they’re happy to sort me out (and not pretentious like some other shops). Friendly prices too. Stoked they’re getting a bigger shop— need the space to accommodate all my friends!
This shop is the. absolute. best. bicycle repair shop in CapHill/Metro Denver area (and they have pretty bikes for sale too, especially if you like vintage & used/upcycled stuff). They are affordably priced and work with you, dont push you to upsell, meet your needs. One time, I went to a bike shop other than Z Cycle Shop. I will NEVER make that mistake again. I can trust this shop. Great people run it with good values too. Five stars.
Great shop - expertise, repairs, merch, ambience. Make sure you hit’em up for all your cycling needs/wants/etc.
Great local bike shop with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Very fair service prices in a no pressure atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Amazing bike shop with even better prices. Snagged lights and a water bottle. Excellent service as well. Gained a long time customer today!
My wife and I both got killer bikes here and we are very happy with them! The team here is amazing and it’s obvious they have a passion to get everyone a bike to ride that fits your needs and budget.
CLUTCH Crew! The Z Cycle team helped fix a broken chain in a pinch. Great service and pricing. My go to shop in my hood from now on!
Frankie is AMAZING! I was having some trouble with the comfort of my seat. As a woman, I really appreciated being able to brainstorm the situation with her. It was hugely helpful to problem-solve with a fellow female. Not only was she extremely kind, knowledgeable, and helpful, but she did it all with a joyful spirit of service. Before coming into the shop, I was so worried I wouldn’t be able to continue cycling due to pain. With Frankie’s help, I left the shop THAT SAME DAY with an incredibly comfortable solution and a giant smile on my face.This shop and the brilliant people who work there are unlike any I’ve encountered in the Denver cycling network. Genuine human connection and passionate help that beautifully maintains an old school nostalgia. :)
Demitri made my day with a quick tire patch and his great personality! Well be back!
I am blown away. This is hands down the best bike shop I have ever visited. If I were a different bike shop, I would send spies to this bike shop to try to figure out how they are so awesome.But its not that difficult to understand, really. They have amazing staff who care about your bike, they quote you honest prices and dont try to sell you parts and services you dont need, and they foster a welcoming environment and dont talk down to people who dont know as much as them. Its a simple formula, but in all of my years of biking and patronizing bike shops, I have never seen it executed so well.I took my trusty commuting/touring bike in for a much needed overhaul. I do basic maintenance/service myself, but after 8+ years, ~10,000 miles, and multiple loaded tours, it was time for a pro to give it some love. I had a broken chain ring that Dimitri replaced for free, and he gave me a high-quality, gently used cassette for a screaming deal (I believe they salvage parts from broken bikes, which helps reduce waste for the world and cost for their customers). Then, when he discovered that the reason that my rear wheel would not true was that my rim had warped, he ordered a new rim and rebuilt the wheel for a shockingly reasonable price.As an aside, I must also mention how cool it was that Dimitri invited me to come back to the shop to look at my wheel to explain what was happening. He put it on the truing stand, explained how the basics of wheel building and spoke tensioning, and hypothesized how my rim became warped. Im not sure if he was afraid that I would think he was selling me an unnecessary service, but I learned a lot and it was super cool of him to take the time.I was so pleased with the service that I brought my wifes bike in, too. I was 100% ready and willing to pay for the top-level tune up, but Dimitri inspected the bike and recommended the mid-level tune as all that was necessary.We have now had the chance to take a few rides, and they were beautiful. I dont think my bike has EVER ridden this beautifully. If you told me I was riding a brand new bike, I would have believed you without question.The people here (I mostly interacted with Dimitri and Frankie) love bikes, but not in the snobbish way that one so often encounters in other bike shops. They want to share their love with you and help you love bikes too.Only bring your bike here. Dont take it anywhere else. I would drive for hours to have these folks work on my bike.
Great folks here. Will be my go-to bike shop moving forward.
THE. BEST. BIKE SHOP. IN. TOWN. FULL STOP.Good prices. Honest inspections. They won’t try to upsell you one something. Everyone there has chain lube under their nails. These people absolutely LOVE to bike. If you don’t make $90K, and actually kind of know about cycles, this is the place for you. They should win a medal.
The staff was very helpful. and they are alsome.
Frankie and Dmitri are really nice and communicative. They give you all the options available and let you pick what you want. Really quick service and very fair pricing. Definitely recommend
After my wheel got stolen they replaced it with a sick little pink one and my bike runs way better leaving the shop than it did going in. Frankie is very sweet and has cool little outfits, did a great job w my bike and was very communicative about the process. Would recommend
Hands down the best bike shop in Denver! The staff went way out of their way to accommodate. Awesome doesnt even begin to describe this place!
Great shop. Super willing to help and not pretentious. Contagious stoke for bicycles.
Great service, the staff here really take good care of the bikes and the customers. We purchased a bike here and have bern very happy with it.
The consult before going forward with repairs was a great idea & totally worth it. The staff are all very friendly & have great suggestions for your cycle. Love the good old fashioned shop experience! Great job Z!
I scheduled a tune up with Dimitri & the crew at Z Cycle; the tech walked me through what was needed and suggestions for my seasonal mileage. Quick turnaround & Dimitri double-checked and tightened everything before a test ride; sending me out the door with a smile!
I took in my wifes bike and my daughters bike for service, they took such great care of me. Everyone in the shop is amazing, which is nice, but you have to have mechanical skills to match and they do. Why would you take your bike to one of those big corporate shops when you could take it to an awesome local Shop full of rad people like this one?
This is a great local bike shop! I’ve brought my electric bike here and they’re fast, professional and they know that there doing! Great customer service. Plus, while you’re waiting you can get a discount on a cup of coffee at the coffee shop next door!
Love this bike shop. Brought my bike in that needed a lot of work (handlebars, fork was bent, etc.) and was worried theyd tell me to just get a new one. Instead, they totally fixed it up and even put air in my tires and tightened up my pedals. One of the employees even gave me a ton of advice and help even though he wasnt the one working on my bike. All of the employees are so nice, helpful, and friendly. It was great to go somewhere where the employees werent pretentious at all and were really eager to help out anyone, regardless of skill. Prices were SUPER affordable. Without a doubt the best bike shop in Denver. Sending my friends to get their bikes fixed -- or buy a bike -- from here once this pandemic is over.
Lovely people doing good work during a difficult time. Only shop with the parts I needed and stayed open a bit late until I arrived. Highly recommended!
Friendly and knowledgeable staff interested in getting and keeping people out riding.
By far the best bike and repair shop in Colorado. Incredible nice people who are also very professional.
Honestly one of the best bike shop experiences I’ve had in over ten years.I walked in and they were clearly busy, but everyone was still so polite. The person at the front checking people in was very kind and directed me to a mechanic. I wish I caught the mechanic’s name because he made my day and is the reason I’m writing this review. He invited me back to watch him work. He explained everything he was doing, even telling me the names of the tools. He wasn’t condescending, even for a second.This will 100% become my regular spot to take my bike!
Best bicycle shop in town, open not too long ago but has achieved greatness.
Had high expectations because of their great Google rating. They surpassed expectations! Brought in two bikes, one which needed significant upgrades and repairs. Everyone at Zs was professional and experts in their bike knowledge. Theyre quick and have very reasonable prices. Cannot recommend enough!!! Ill be using them again and again.
Z cycle is the real deal, all of the staff is extremely helpful and polite, they have a surprising amount of parts in stock, and they provide bicycle repairs/maintenance that is quick, reliable and affordable. I have been to several bike shops here in Colorado and Z cycle really stands out as the best. If youre having any problems with your bicycle or are in the market to buy one, Dimitri at Z cycle is who I would call. Having a reliable and convenient shop like Z cycle has completely changed my cycling experience, thanks guys!
Down to earth honest humble they wanted 20 dollars for a seat post and a seat to replace the one that was stolen off my bike. I thought that was too cheap of a price I paid them 30. And it took the petite blond 7 minutes to find and attach. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Five flying stars
Great local business, if you live on cap hill or near the area, stop in for all your bike needs. Ask for Dimitri or Frankie, they are super friendly and helpful.
This place is AWESOME!!!Lots of great consignment bikes, as well as equipment. Does skis & boards too!
There is you neighborhood bike shop, then there is Z Cycle. Its the type of shop you just dont want to leave, every time I am there I want to pick up a wrench and get to work. Dimitri is a great guy. This is you your your bikes new home. GREAT SHOP!
Dimitri is adorable and they are so kind there!
Got my 64 Fugi tuned up here. Then bought my husband a great road bike for a super decent price. Great guys, super casual. Thank yall
Top marks! Dmitri knows his craft well and takes excellent care of his customers. Shop local!
By far the best bike shop in town. These guys are bike pros. Super knowledgeable and friendly team with a wonderful owner. If your bike has a problem, they know how to fix it. And a great selection of bikes and gear. I wont go anywhere else.
By far the best bike shop in denver. The owner Dmitri is a great person and is extremely flexible when working with customers.
Very nice people. Demetry and melissa were very friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this place
Dimitri, Elliot and Oliver hooked me up with a big ask right before close! I super appreciated these guys working hard and working late to get the job done! Great guys, really friendly and always to help out when they can. Definitely appreciated the rush service and willingness to help me out in a pinch! Thanks again!
Demetri was super helpful! We stopped in for a quick tube exchange for a flat tire and he pointed out some other things that may need some adjustments. He fixed the front breaks and explained what and why he was doing it. Super knowledgeable and helpful! Will be coming here from now on with all my bike questions!
I liked the website convenience of making an appointment on line. I arranged for a “simple tune up” for $40. I purchased new pedals and straps.
This shop will go above and beyond to meet your needs. Outstanding customer service and great deals. Dimitri as well as everyone I spoke with were very knowledgeable and helpful. They earned my customer loyalty after one visit, give them a shot!
Had something wrong with my tire. Went in and everyone was super nice and so so friendly! Work was low cost, well done, and fast! So thankful. These guys really saved the day!
Fast, friendly, thorough service.
PERFECT for casual commuters. Most affordable prices and kind staff who will hook you up with great deals. Seriously felt like my luck was turning around after my seat & post were stolen and no other shop in the neighborhood had the right size post. They even threw a chain around the new seat so I know it wont get stolen again. Seriously cant over-emphasize how great this place is.
Very friendly and knowledgeable
The nicest people who care and know what to do for great prices and quick service...I couldnt think of anything better....thanks to Frankie who worked on my road bike...
Favorite bike shop in Denver! Amazing service, friendly staff and true care to fix your bike in the most efficient and cost effective way possible.
Love these guys. They do good work and have reasonable prices. Thanks guys!!
This place is great not only because its open on sunday till 7:00pm, but excellent customer service, nice bike shop thanks for the help ill be back.
Dmetri and his crew are the best! My wife and I are traveling cross-country and our bikes have taken a beating. They tuned them up spectacularly and for a very reasonable price. These guys actually care about their customers, and they know bikes really well. Highly recommend!
Im a casual cyclist who recently bought a used 2012 Scott Sub 10 bike - it uses a belt drive which is fairly uncommon. After only a few weeks, the rear sprocket busted leaving me without my only mode of transportation.I brought it into the shop and Dmitri immediately began inspecting. He quickly diagnosed the issue and provided me with a few options. I chose what was likely the most difficult option - trying to find an exact replacement for the now obsolete part.After several attempts, we were able to identify a part that might work - Dmitri joined me on a conference call with the manufacturer to make sure the specs all matched. He even volunteered to drive down to the shop in Centennial to pick it up.Once the part arrived, he installed and tested it, keeping me in the loop with his progress. Im grateful for the expertise, communication, and patience Dmitri and his team demonstrated to get my bike up and running again. It was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to get their bike repaired. Oh, and from what Ive observed, they have a lot of great bikes for sale too.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience here! Fantastic service, staff, and pricing! Big shout out to Melissa who was so helpful and patient while helping me find a used budget bike, and an absolute perfectionist while fixing it up! I had a lot of anxiety about riding after busting my face on a poorly put together bike from elsewhere, but have no fear after watching Melissa and her team’s craftsmanship and attention to detail on everything they touched while I was in the shop. 6/5 stars. Thanks, guys!
Super chill environment with very knowledgeable staff. They host a monthly Fermentation workshop and provide cultures for Kombucha and like products. I got a tune up on my bike and picked it up later. The only bummer was they never called me when it was complete but they did a fantastic job on the tune and my bike works great! Would highly recommend to the Cap Hill neighborhood.
Purchased a bike helmet, pads, mountain bike tune up and shorts. Honestly best bike shop in town, and their responsiveness to the bike challenges were impeccable. Love this place. My family and friends only choose Z’s
First impression and first service repeat customers can make a business giant in its group thanks frankie i now know what bike shop i trust and will go to
Demitri has been nothing but great. So friendly every time I have come in for help. He has helped me discover issues with my bike and provided first class service. I feel very welcomed when I visit and will continue to use their services and purchase all of my bike necessities here. The rest of the staff has also been great. Thank you!!!
This is an excellent body shop the staff is very personable and the owner goes above and beyond the call of duty to provide an excellent bike and excellent customer service
Shop owner Demetri is super rad and helpful! Loved going to this place, will be coming back.
Thoughtful, generous, and dynamite service. Dimitri and every other person I met at z cycle were kind and patient. I’m new to biking and they couldn’t have been more understanding and supportive. My new bike shop for life. Swing in, you won’t be disappointed.
I bought a mountain bike from this store & was back several times for service they were great what really impressed me was I was looking for an inner tube for a hoverboard 10 inch wheel, not only did they have the size but they had the exact tube with the exact valve stem that was correct for that hoverboard!Demetri is so knowledgeable about anything with pedals &wheels its unbelievable . I want to come work for him for free just to learn. Great shop, great people, great service period.
You can tell Demetri is an incredibly knowledgeable veteran at his craft. He offered me tools, let me fix my own flat with no pressure what-so-ever, and even gave me some pointers. Hands down the best bicycle shop in Denver.
This is the coolest bike shop Ive been to! The owner, Demetri, is super nice and really helpful. The shop has really fair prices on services and parts. The owner made me feel like he genuinely cared that I got a great bike for myself and that I had a good experience in his shop. Ill definitely be going back!
These guys are the best. Needed a very small piece (a recessed brake nut) and called to see if they carried it. They did, so I biked over there and they just tossed it to me and said just take it. No charge, and awesome service. Its places like this that we need more of in town. Im going to support them for years to come!!!
These guys are cool, stopped in for a flat fix and they took care of me on the cheap
Dimitri is the best, super knowledable about anything with wheels. He charges a cheap tool fee and gives you advice as you DIY fix your bike.
Best bike shop this side of the rockies! Or the other side, for that matter. Its great to work with passionate people who believe in their craft!
Im an everyday rider with a history of improbably busted parts, so I needed to find a good bike shop after moving here and getting some new wheels. Ive been to Z twice now for some moderate repairs and essential accessories. To me, a great community bike shop is a sacred place. My bike means a lot to me so I need a place where I can trust that the mechanics care about their work and clientele. I get that vibe from Z. After handing him no small task, Dmitri went out of his way to break down all the steps of my last repair as he took care of it right then and there. Needless to say Im now riding super smooth. The rest of the team and everyone else coming in and out was really friendly. Ill def be coming back soon. Thanks guys.
No one called to tell me they couldnt find my tube size. The woman told me on the phone to just bring in my bike, then she said they didnt have the size and would order it, then nothing ever again. I followed up eventually. The place is also very dirty; there are lots of people experiencing homelessness outside in immediate areas too.
This shop is great. Been going for the past year when I moved to Denver. Good people that do good work.
I had the best experience here! I have little knowledge about bikes and Melissa took such great care of me. I got an old bike repaired and Melissa was so kind and patient with answering my novice questions. She explained exactly what I needed so I never felt scammed into buying anything. The bike feels brand new :) I’ll be coming here for tune ups and I absolutely recommend Z Cycle to any bike owner, beginner or expert!
Best shop around town. Great service better people.
Dimitri and crew go out of their way to make sure your bike is performing at its utmost for the most reasonable price. They go above and beyond to find practical solutions to your biking needs. Dmitri tried to find me used parts to save me money and even gave me a used saddle bag and parts for a friend whose bike I was setting up for use.
Had no idea this was a thing. Handling bikes in a Covid Era with much pinache. I am super happy to have found this bike shop. Service was great
