Hey, I'm Joe.
I'm not just a mechanic, I'm a bike enthusiast. I've got over 30 years of experience working on bikes of all types and vintages. I enjoy restoring old clunkers as much as tuning the latest and lightest racing bike. I treat every bike with care and attention, whether it's one of our rentals or your trusty winter commuter.
I also know a lot about cycling and I'm happy to share my tips and tricks with you. I've done it all: road and cross-country mountain bike racing, cycle touring, bike couriering, and urban commuting. I know what it takes to make your ride safe and enjoyable.

Riders Love Joe's
"Joe was wonderful and so kind! It was a beautiful day and I rented a bike from Joe. Believe it or not the bike path was melted and was fantastic to ride on!"— S S
"We rented from Joe's back in August. He was very helpful and friendly and gave us some good tips. The bikes were in excellent shape! Joe has a great business here, and he runs it well. I would whole heartedly recommend this business!!"— Paul M
"Joe and Max took great care of me on a recent trip to Calgary. They were super personable and knew exactly how to make my experience great. I love that they stick to traditional, non-electric bikes. It's more affordable and better exercise."— Dann Sytsma
"I don't typically review businesses but Joe went above and beyond. The wife's rear tire popped on a ride last night. He was able to get a new tube and tire replaced within a couple hours. He went above and beyond the call of duty, thank you Joe."— Aqil Charania
