I just find your mechanics always helpful. I've been to the shop several times and I haven't had a bad experience. Also, took my bike out for a ride today and it was much smoother than when I brought it in
Friendly and knowledgable staff who were very helpful. Good deals. Happy to support a bike shop that's been around NYC since 78. Salute to the team!
I PAID 119.00$ FOR A SADDLE THAT I COULD'VE PURCHASED ELSEWHERE FOR 60.00$. SAME BRAND SADDLE.
You all really paid attention to my needs and made sure my bike fit well. Big fan of your work!
I've visited a couple of times. Great customer service. Got my bike fixed faster than expected. They definitely know their stuff. Will definitely be a regular customer.
The staff was amazing from initial view of bikes to pickup and setup of the seats and settings. Thank you!
I never fail to make “high maintenance” requests at Bike Habitat and they never fail to fulfill my wants and needs as if they are entirely reasonable. Can’t say enough..
I didn't even have to say a word - the kindest staff member came right over to help us choose the right size helmet for my growing children. Took time and careful consideration, and found the best choice - my son has been wearing his new helmet around like an accessory, he loves it!
We organised a 24hr bike hire with Bicycle Habitat who were very attentive and ensured we had the correct fit and safety equipment (helmet & lights) along with a lock and map.
Great to find a proper bike shop in NYC!
Adam was fantastic in explaining the process and payment of repairs. I’m more than satisfied with the work done by the mechanic and will be returning.
Reliable, honest, friendly
Your team does great work and takes time to explain everything, answer questions, and make for a great service experience.
Great service, the work was done very well, fair price. Thanks again.
I recently ran into a major issue with my Sondors LX e-bike, and since the company is no longer around for servicing, I had to figure things out on my own. After searching through countless forums, I kept seeing the same frustrating answer: I’d either need to rebuild the wheel with a new hub and freehub body or replace the entire wheel—both extremely expensive options, especially for a fat-tire bike with 4.9" tires.
I checked all over Westchester, NY, with no luck. Just when I was running out of options, I found Bicycle Habitat in Soho. It was a bit of a drive from Westchester, but at 35 minutes on the a weekend evening but it was worth a shot.
From my first phone call with Matt, I could tell he knew his stuff. He understood the parts involved and went over all possible fixes before jumping to a full wheel replacement. That was great to hear, especially after seeing how difficult others found this repair.
I took the trip down, hoping this would finally be the solution. On the second day, I got a call from Matt. He and their skilled mechanic Anthony had found a freehub body that worked with my existing rim, saving me a ton of money and, more importantly, keeping my bike running for years to come. That was my biggest concern since I use this bike daily to get to the train station and around town.
Not only did they fix my freehub issue, but they also caught a manufacturer defect that caused the cassette to rub against the rim. Their passion and dedication to their craft made all the difference.
This is now my go-to bike shop, and I can't thank Matt and Anthony enough for their expertise and commitment to getting me back on the road. If you need real bike mechanics who actually care, I highly recommend Bicycle Habitat in Soho.
Your products are high quality I live in the neighborhood and you're very convenient your service is pretty good. The staff is very polite overall you guys are a pretty good bike shop. I have been going to Bicycle Habitat since there was in SoHo
As a whole, that place is excellent, especially Matt, he is the best.

Bicycle Habitat is my go to bike store for any and all repairs, accessories or basic questions regarding bikes. A very knowledgeable team of technical professionals always ready and eager to assist in all matters, as it pertains to bikes and accessories as well as general information on sustainable and other advanced technologies in the cycling/biking industry. They are very attuned to the needs and concerns of cyclists
Less expensive than other places, good service atmosphere, does a great job with my bike, sells high-quality products.
great and predictable service and knowledgeable technicians! Trust that my Dutch Gazelle is well taken care of!
My tune up was on the expensive side, but service was great
always has what i'm looking for; helpful and welcoming staff--bike shops always run the risk of having a bad vibe especially if you aren't a bike expert, but i've always been so impressed with how willing staff is to answer questions and offer lots of options to meet my needs
