What an amazing shop! I’m so glad I found my way into Bicycle Habitat. I was touring from Rochester, NY to New York City and needed some gear and service before continuing on down to DC. Josh was so helpful finding the items I needed. Anthony went above and beyond servicing my Disc Trucker and I left the shop with confidence my bike was set for another 1000 miles. Thank you all for the amazing customer service and skilled labor. I can’t wait to be back in the City to swing back through.

Satisfied customer.
Very friendly, knowledgeable staff and competent mechanics. Had rethreading of a stripped crank arm done within the time stated with work perfectly done. If anyone asks me about a good bike shop I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bicycle Habitat -Chelsea.
Very friendly and knowledgeable sales staff. Competitive prices. Well stocked with road helmets - I purchased a Giro.
Quick service! Being able to walk in and get work done the same day is what brings me back
This is my first time visiting Bicycle Habitat and the experience was well worth it. The staff was professional, friendly and efficient. I was approached right away by an associate named Chadd. He sat with me to ask me a series of questions on what I was looking for in a bike. I have had my bike for 22 years now and it was difficult to let go. However, he was able to talk to me about the issues with my current bike and what an upgrade can look like for me. He presented three different bikes and I was sold on one of the models. I was able to test it and as I said to Chadd, it has been a long time since riding a bike has been this easy. I ended up buying the bike and he set me up with a profile for any care that may be needed afterwards. It was hard to let go of my old bike but this experience alone is making me look forward to starting a new chapter with my new bike. Thank you so much!
I highly recommend Bicycle Habitat for anything cycling. In course of building a custom touring bike at the Chelsea branch (this is the only bike shop that has the chops to do this) I have observed that they solve any and all issues cyclists have with expertise, and total understanding. Whether you are bike packing, mountain biking or road cycling this is the place to go to. Special shout-out to Matt for helping me build my custom tour bike.
Everyone was friendly, helpful and felt trust worthy
Extraordinary crew! Superb sales, answered all of my questions, and got my bike ready in less than a day. Thanks a ton!!
Patience, good knowledge
Very thorough and clear.
Listen to customer and give accurate time information
I had a positive experience at your shop and would definitely recommend it because the staff was friendly and helpful. They did a great job with my bike accessories like the wrap, lube, and pedals.
I did have a small issue when the tech forgot to put my light back on after installing my handle wrap. It was a bit inconvenient as I was far from home without a light on my bike at night and will also require me to make an extra trip back to the store, which is a hassle for me.
I mentioned this when I called, just to make sure your team is aware. While I appreciate the effort to find my light and label it, it was a bit frustrating for me.
Overall, I still plan to leave a positive review and 5 stars on Google. Just thought it would be helpful to review your procedures to avoid these situations in the future. Every detail matters! Thank you!
You guys are awesome, and have been very good to me, and have helped me with anything that I have needed.
The guy who helped me buy the right spare tube also gave me lots of advice about my upcoming ride (my first century). Very helpful and generous.
I like people at Bicycle Habitat. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Moreover, they are very welcoming and create an atmosphere that makes you want to shop there.
Bicycle Habitat to me is one of the premier Bicycle Sales/Repair shops in NYC. You are always treated with professionals that have vast knowledge on everything with 2 wheels.They never try to up sale you on products. They find ways to service your bicycle 100% and mitigate costs of parts and repairs. BH is the best!
Geoff was extremely helpful!
I had a small but pressing problem. The shop was clearly busy with a lot to do. The mechanic got my simple/stupid issue resolved in less than 15 minutes.
I tried adjusting my cantilever brakes for hours because they were squealing when I needed to stop. The mechanic made them perfect in less than ten minutes for only $15! Amazing.
I asked to have toe cages installed when I dropped the bike off, and when I replied to an email. They were never installed. I dropped the bike off to be tuned, and it still is not smoothly shifting in certain gears.
Excellent, friendly, quick service, reasonably priced.
Bicycle Habitat NEVER disappoints in the area of customer service. Working with any employee is always a satisfying experience. From the moment I arrived with my flat tire Adam was attentive. He not only explained the process and pricing, but saw that I was hindering the use of my brakes with a large bag restricting the brake wire. I liked the concern for my welfare outside of my immediate problem. In addition there were NO surprises when it was time to pay. I recommend Bicycle Habitat to anyone I know with a bike (whether they live in Brooklyn or not).
Very friendly, very fast service.
Taylor was super helpful, patient and answered all my many questions:)
Exceeded expectations.
Easy to view stock and shop, team at the store was super friendly

Excellent work as usual.
