I knew nothing about bikes before going here but I've had several great experiences at The Hub! It's been a challenging time for the industry between inflated demand due to the pandemic, newly imposed tarriffs, and especially for this shop located in an area impacted by fallout from social injustice this past summer. Despite all this, I've been met with positive attitudes, staff passionate about biking and teaching others, and patience as I test rode several bikes here before buying. The team here listened to what I was looking for, giving recommendations that got me closer each time to the right bike, based on stock at the time and what was projected to come in. Had the challenges I mentioned above not not been factors, I have no doubt I would've been paired with what I was looking for right away. The wait was well worth it though and I'm thankful for all the staff I've met through this journey. I maybe shouldnt be surprised by the caliber of the staff because it's a co-op, but I still am every time I visit! Shout out to AK and Jodi (sp?) who helped me with a final decision and to Henry who taught me so much about maintenance and adjustments. I apologize because I know I am missing names but am thankful for all of you. You and this business have a positive impact on our community. Keep up the great work!

I went to the Hub a few weeks ago to get my bike adjusted and get new pedals installed. Madilynn helped adjust my bike so that it fit better, ensuring that any adjustments worked for me. She also installed my new pedals, which have been working great! Madilynn was also incredibly knowledgable and patient in answering all my questions and made the process less intimidating. The Hub and its staff were also all taking social distancing and mask wearing rules seriously. I saw areas of the store wiped down frequently and the number of customers in the store at a given time was reduced to ensure social distancing could be practiced. I'll definitely return to the Hub in the future for my biking needs :)

This place is great! Wow! I definitely recommend. The salesperson I worked with (Heri) was helpful and informative, and showed me a few options at a reasonable price that suited my needs really well. Enjoyed the one I took for a test ride, went back today to purchase it. One standout thing that impressed me was the no-pressure environment when I chose to sleep on it/look at a couple other places first. I really believe the people here just want to be helpful in getting people on a bike that works for them, wherever they choose to buy in the end! Just, wow

There's a beautiful mural on the front of the building which tells stories of human progress through labor, industry and the arts. Im glad it is still intact and on display since the building suffered damage during the darkness that passed over our city in May/June. I wish this small business, like all small businesses, was not targeted. The Hub Bike Co-op serves the community, like all small businesses do here, and, everywhere. May their business be stronger than ever for long to come.

Awesome bike co-op — they’ll help you figure out any bike needs you have, and at a great price. I wanted to get a Marin Fairfax 1, a bargain of a hybrid bike, for commuting to work. But I waited (almost) too late into the season, and most of the stock was sold out, nationwide. Plus there were two other Hub clients seeking the exact same bike. D’oh! Nonetheless, their buyer kept after it all through July-4th week, and finally determined that Marin had just *two* of those bikes left. She worked with me and the other two customers, and got us all bikes we were excited about. I ended up with one of the Fairfax 1s, and it has been an ideal commuter bike. (See the Wirecutter review for hybrid bikes — it’s been their top pick for the past few years, and I can absolutely see why.) I’m new to bike commuting, so I’ve been back to the Hub several times since to get gear, and their staff has helped me figure out the right picks for every need. Knowledgeable, friendly, committed to helping you get a bike you love at a great bargain. The Hub and their staff are everything an awesome bike co-op should be.
