Review & Rating
Boulevard is our local shop and we now take all our bikes there to be serviced, even the bikes purchased elsewhere. Kevin and his staff do a meticulous job building and mainting bikes. Their prices are super fair, they are pleasant, and welcoming and friendly to seasoned and new cyclists alike. Can't recommend them enough for all your cycling needs!
Kevin from boulevard bikes was so wonderful! He was extremely helpful, offering personal experience and clear knowledge on the panniers and front racks I was interested in. Ultimately, guiding me towards the best selection for myself. He installed the rack and helped tweak a lot of little details on my bike improving my fit and bike function. I rode away astronomically more comfortable and secure with my bikes ability to withstand the tour I'm about to embark on. They have some excellent brands in stock and lots of cool accessories. Thanks so much for the help!
These guys work well, I've been several times with my bicycle, I do not have much knowledge in English of the words that have to do with bicycles, but they definitely have the patience to understand what I want, the staff is very good vibes, thanks for having a day my bicycle.
Great service, compassionate and knowledgeable, the commitment shows and competive prices. Won't try to sell you a "Cadillac" if all you need is a "Honda"
Slightly more expensive than other shops in the area but fantastic work and they really care about your safety when you get back on the road
Super helpful and knowledgeable people prices are fair.
Great selections in a variety of prices. They were welcoming and wanted to help even though I wasnt ready to buy.
Nice people but the prices were crazy! If you have got money to spend, they'll help you. But don't expect service for cheap. They had steel chili peppers for $30. Like, c'mon. Also, after seeing the answer to my review and the other negative ones, it seems like the owner is trying to win every review over.
I've been wanting to buy a road bike for years but kept putting it off because I found the road biking community to be a little intimidating. Mary was super helpful! Immediately put me at ease, answering all my questions with no hint of snarkyness or even an eye roll. She fitted me with a 48 cm bike - a full four cm smaller than all the online shops/ blogs recommended. Once I started riding that black beauty I knew I had found the bike for me. I'm so glad I ended up buying my first bike from a local bike shop rather than off craigslist or an online store. Other than the amazing customer service, great prices, and knowledgeable employees, Boulevard Bikes offers a ton of free bike maps, Amtrak guides, and even free pamphlets detailing Illinois bicycle laws. Even though I'm still kinda nervous to take the bike out on my own, with everything I learned yesterday I'm sure I'll be fine. Thanks again!
Amazing staff! I have interacted with multiple employees among my visits and have always left smiling! They are all very knowledgeable, honest, and interesting! I sold my old bike to them over a year ago and felt I got a very fair price for it. Since then they have taken care of my new bike for bi-annual tune ups and general care. I never feel like they are trying to up-sell me or rip me off, and the pricing always feels reasonable, especially for such reliable service! They remember my bike and always have a complement or something fun to say about it. I couldn’t ask for anything more in my local bike shop.
