Here are the prices on a few of the many services I perform. E-bike service is usually about 20% extra on most repairs. Tandems and recumbent fees may also be higher. Based on this logic, we will have to charge less to work on your unicycle.
| Tune-up |
$95, but less if the bike and drivetrain are perfectly clean. This is an Everything Tune-Up. |
| Dirty Bike Surcharge |
$20-30, this takes care of caked on grease or Post Canyon mud so I can actually adjust your bike. |
| Bleed Disc Brakes |
$35 for most brakes, $40 for old Avid brakes (they require a little more work for a perfect bleed). |
| Shifting Adjust |
$15, more if I have to tweak a hanger or something. |
| True Wheels |
$10-25, depending on what shape they are in. |
| Cables and Housing |
$28 for cables and housing. It does, however, cost a little extra for full length housing, internally routed cables, and for cables and housing under bar tape. |
| Creak or Click Diagnostics |
$65 an hour. One time it took me three months to solve a particularly sneaky creak so it is best if you find the noise then tell me what to fix. Another time the creak was in the rider’s knee. I still had to charge her but luckily I’m a doctor so I could fix the knee also. |
| Re-pack Bearings |
$25-$50, I clean them up and re-grease them. Fancy three-speed hubs and coaster brake hubs cost more, of course. |
| Build Your Special Bike |
$70-$150 if new in a box, $85-$125 if shipped used. It will cost more if it is just a frame and parts. |
| Complete Rebuild |
Ask me after I look at the bike. Some bikes I take pity on if they are old AND cool. Some bikes just need to be put out of their misery. |
This is a general summary of my pricing. Of course, if you bring in food to share along with your bike I become much more willing to negotiate. Also, I charge double for jerks, whiners, and freeloaders. If you come in prepared with something intelligent to discuss you can stand around and watch me work, but if all you do is complain or talk about the government I will kick you out on your backside. I don’t even mind conspiracies, UFO talk, or veganism as long as you don’t bring a soap-box.
