I've been biking in the U District area for almost 6 years and Recycled cycles has been there for me throughout the whole Journey. I've bought countless biking accessories, parts, and gotten almost my entire bike fleet serviced there at some point or another. They are an extremely solid bike shop who really cares about cycling and stands behind that. Every person I've interacted with there has been friendly, informative and overall a breeze to work with. Regarding bike service, I have always been extremely happy with the quality of work they have done for me and I've found the pricing to be very reasonable. I've had multiple experiences of popping in for a quick issue or question I've had about my bikes, and have always been well-attended. A few times I've even left without being asked to pay for minor adjustments or mechanical help, thanks to super friendly employees. Today I took in a Surly Bridge Club, hoping to get it tuned up for shifting issues. Upon speaking to Espen, I was given a good explanation of what was causing my issues and a price estimate. What I expected to be a multi-day service was completed in 15 minutes! Service was great and my Surly is now shifting without a problem! I would recommend Recycled Cycles to anyone, and I will continue being a loyal costumer.

I have been to recycled cycles many times but made my first purchase this week and followed up with service for a couple of other bikes. They are all awesome! Service! Sales! Everyone is super cool, helpful and nice. Jake who helped my 8 yo find a new to him bike. A Trek at almost 1/2 the cost of new. And they made sure everything was working before we left. So it was better than new! They even fixed the breaks because they found something that concerned them. 30 day warranty too. Henrietta, helped me today with my 10 yo's broken bike. She fixed all the brakes super fast! I told her if I could have the bike by school pick up he would be ecstatic! He rides his bike to school every single day. So taking it toget fixed worried me and him a little bit. She had it ready in less than an hour! And the cost was reasonable. My bike on the hand is a big job. It's sat around for almost 8 years. They told me exactly what was wrong and even said, your chain is rusty but fine. We can replace it but it's not needed. Then the told me the right lubricant to buy (it's not basic wd-40). They also did this without making me feel stupid, which is nice. They are full of knowledge and they want to help and share. It is costly but not unreasonable - it is a big job. And will take about 3 weeks but it works for me! Henrietta even chatted with me about ways to teach my husband to ride a bike. I don't think I'll visit another bike shop unless I move from Seattle. Also they have not only used bikes but all the accessories too! I got Trek water bottle holders for $3 each. They have everything you can be think of. Oh! Also they run a website you can register your bike in case it gets stolen!

I purchased a new Marin bike years ago at Recycled Cycles and came back today to buy a used kids bike for my daughter. Great shop with great prices on new and used bikes. Support your local bike shop instead of a big box store!
