With little notice, Chris was wonderfully helpful with my bike situation. He fixed my seat, checked the bike over for safety and workability, and helped me solve transportation challenges I faced due to the bike's shape. Everything was done quickly and at an affordable cost. He will be my first call when I need anything associated with my bike!
I have been a mechanic of many stripes for over 15 years. I've stripped motorcycles down to the frame and restored them, F-16s down to the hulk of a fuselage and had them flying again, and rebuilt cars with every imaginable defect. I've done all sorts of work on my own bikes since I was ten years old.
Chris at Black Pug Bike Repair is the only person that I trust to work on my road, cyclocross, and mountain bikes more than myself. Need I say more?
Of course not, but I will anyway. Having been a professional mechanic for such a long time, I know what I'm looking at when I watch someone work. I know from the way Chris's hands and eyes move that he's an instinctual mechanic. Watch him rig a rear derailleur from scratch some time, and you'll know what I mean. He's quick without rushing, painstaking and thorough without dawdling, and inexpensive to boot.
If you have anything-- ANYTHING-- wrong with any of your bikes, don't mess around. Just take them to Black Pug, and get it done right the first time.
I really like this bike shop ! HD does a great job.
