Honest, expert bike repairs and tune-ups in Ottawa.
I'm a one-person bike shop focused on getting you back on the road fast. Drop your bike off, pick a time that works for you, and I'll handle the rest, from quick flat fixes to full tune-ups.
One expert, start to finish
Your bike is worked on by me, not handed around a shop floor.
Quick turnaround
Most tune-ups and repairs done same-day or next-day.
Honest advice
I'll tell you what your bike actually needs, and what it doesn't.
Services & Pricing
Straightforward pricing. Parts are extra only when they're needed, and I'll always check with you first.
Basic Tune-Up
$60A solid once-over to keep your bike safe and smooth. I adjust the brakes and gears, set tire pressure, tighten key bolts, lube the chain, and run a full safety check.
Full Tune-Up
$100My most thorough service. Everything in the basic tune-up, plus a deep drivetrain clean, wheel truing, and a full cable and housing check. Ideal for a seasonal refresh or a bike that's been sitting.
Flat Tire / Tube Replacement
$20Quick fix to get you rolling again. I replace the tube or patch the puncture, check the tire for whatever caused it, and set the right pressure. Tube or tire parts are extra only if needed.
Brake Service
$30For safe, confident stopping. I adjust or replace your brake pads and cables, fine-tune the lever feel, and make sure both brakes grip evenly and release cleanly.
Gear / Derailleur Service
$45Smooth, accurate shifting across every gear. I tune the derailleurs, set cable tension, and clean up skipping or sloppy shifts so the bike responds the moment you click.
Something Else / Not Sure
QuoteNot sure what you need, or have something specific in mind? Book this, describe the issue, and I'll take a look and give you an honest assessment and quote before any work.

About
Hi, I'm Ari, the owner and the only mechanic at The Bike Repair Shop. I started this shop because I believe bike repair should be simple, honest, and personal. When you book, you're dealing directly with the person fixing your bike.
