David's Bicycle Shop

I've been using this bicycle shop for years. David (owner and technician) has never pressured me into more than I need and will tell me if he believes I dont need an item. He is very good at his repairs and never needed to have a second repair. The biggest downside is, if you consider it as such, would be the wait for larger repairs not because he is slow but instead he has so many wanting his services.

This is my new pride and joy Salvador! I'm incredibly happy with my purchase, and riding her has been fun!

When I first thought of getting a new bike I was worried, with good reason. I weigh around 430 lbs. I'd read so many blog posts about what a bike that supports my weight type should have, and the general costs, all of it was a more than a little overwhelming.

It was while I was researching that a good majority of heavy riders recommended going local. I figured I'd hedge my bets and shop online first and save local shopping for last. If only I'd of known to go local sooner.

I'd of saved a great deal of time and wouldn't of called around in a tizzy like a chicken with its head chopped off. I made this shop my first stop and I can't believe how incredibly lucky I was!

This owner has over 15 years of experience, was incredibly passionate yet humble about his store. That passion translates well into his work. He was very informative about all of his products and knew right away which would work best and why when I described what I wanted.

His info accurately matched up with some of the advice I'd read from big bike guru's online, so I knew I wasn't dealing with someone who was yanking me around.

Originally I'd wanted something like a cruiser simply because I liked the look and it was easy to get on because of the low middle.

The bike he Pointed me too (My Salvador) lined up well with my wishes as well as some unknown needs I'd had yet to realize.

Those needs being the 7 speed and proper tires to support my weight as well as front and rear brakes, which definitely come in handy now that I'm riding up and down hill, which I didn't know my neighborhood had.

Did I mention the price? I thought I'd have to fork over a fortune to get my bike. I'd read so much about how much custom bikes cost for my weight class, I'm incredibly grateful and fortunate to have found a bike shop that wasn't trying to milk me for all I was worth and took my wants and needs above simply selling me the highest rated top dollar cop out two wheeler.

All in all, this is my new bike shop! I've no doubt that my friends and family will frequent his store quite a bit in the future.

Excellent service, excellent quality, excellent price, and a very Hometown personal experience you can't get at chain shops. 10/10

Foot Note: I took a bit of a tumble re-learning, and my water bottle holder broke. I also noticed one of my brake wires is out of slot, if anyone was wondering. So, I may need to be by sooner or later to get that taken care of. Ride On, guys!
Cheers!

The owner did a great job replacing the inner tube of my back tire. Reasonable pricing, plus he took my bike out of my trunk when I dropped it off and offered to put it back in my car when I picked it up. He went the extra step that he didn’t have to and I really appreciated that. I will continue to go here for all of my bicycle needs from now on. Definitely recommend anyone to go here.

I've been doing business with David for close to 10 years. Every request and project that I've ventured into and need something unusual or out of box approach, he has been able to assist and then some. Look forward to supporting him for another 10 or more years. When it comes to willingness to help the customer, David never steps back, if anything he steps forward and enjoys the challenge. Appreciate all the assistance with each project.

David was fantastically knowledgeable about bikes and a joy to work with. He's got a fantastic selection of bikes (new and refurbished), including a variety of price points and sizes. He's also a fantastic repairman, and does a great job at reasonable rates. Most importantly, and I can't underscore this enough, he has a great love of cycling, and that comes out in his business. 5 stars isn't enough!

I took David my grandson’s tricycle with very fat wheels i didn’t know what to do. it I had a flat tire he figured out how to light a fire to it and seal the hole or leak, I’m sure I’m not saying it right 😳😜 but no one can figure it out but he did! My baby was able to have his tricycle in time for Christmas! David is such a great guy,
very polite and smart!

David is hands down the best bike mechanic in St Louis. He has remade my 12 year old bike so many times to keep it running in tip top shape for thousands of miles every year. He has suggested modifications and equipment that has improved my safety, speed, and comfort. I have used four other shops before I learned - the hard way - that only David is right for my bike. Thank you. Plus he's really knowledgeable and fun.

I needed a seat post clamp for my daughter's bike. Not only did he make sure I got the right sized part, but he got it on the bike for me and sent me on my way. Thorough, helpful, and very friendly. I know where I'll be heading for any future bike parts or tune-up's.

Really great and friendly service. David is a nice and experienced guy that will help you get what you need and get you back on the road. My bike tune up was quick and a great price. Will definitely be coming back here for any issues I may have or any cycling shopping I need to do.

Last month I borrowed a bike from a friend of mine to ride the Katy Trail and wrecked it. I brought it in to David for repairs and a tune-up. I picked it up a few days later....repaired and tuned. He re-adjusted a few things and straightened the derailer (?) I had bent, and not selling me a new one. Very honest! He didn't try to sell me things I didn't need......Thank you!

I recently stopped in to buy some hub bearings for a bmx bike I needed to fix. I was instantly impressed when I walked in to find, literally, close to 100 bikes in the shop. All customer bikes that were waiting for pick up, I must add. A well stocked store is a good indication of a place that I want to spend my money. I presented my broken pieces and the staff instantly recognized my problem and quickly gave me a resolution. Now a days Knowledge and a professional opinion is something you dont find often and when you do it is met with a bothersome tone, but not at David's.
I received great service, great pricing and I was supporting a local business that deserves the credit. Thank you David for all the help and great service, you have a great business and it is appreciated.

I arrived at David's bike shop looking for a multi use bicycle to ride on and off road. He greeted me upon entry and listened to my questions and provided the necessary feedback in order to select the perfect bicycle. If you require repairs or want a great bicycle for any age range..stop by David's Bicycle shop. It is one of the best customer service experience you will encounter and the prices are reasonable.

David knows bikes! Superior quality service! I thought I would never find forks for my wife’s trike. He found them in a matter of minutes and had them ordered and in the shop within a couple of day’s. I went home to install the forks and screwed up the stem bolt. He had exactly what I needed and out the door I went. I guess I should leave the repairs on her trike up to the pros. Lol!! Thanks David

David is a hard working and very knowledgeable young man ... Great service...and very cool collection of vintage BMX and freestyle bikes ..GT ..Haro.. Redline ...just to name a few of the brands he has at the shop ...He is a award winning vintage bike restoration expert... If you haven't been to his shop ...you should definitely stop by and check it out and say Hi to David

I have known David since I was about 14. Always been a good friend of mine. He is a well focued man who follows his passion with his head on straight. Good to people and dedicated. Hard work pays off. Many endless options here at his shop!

Whether you're looking for a new or used bike, or you need a bike repaired or serviced, go talk to David. He's knowledgeable and honest. Big box stores are good for some things, but buying a bicycle is not one of them. Support this local business!

We were in a pinch here at work with a customer's camper that was getting picked up today. We checked all of our local hardware stores for a specific valve stem, and nobody had what we were looking for. Even though David's Bicycle Shop is technically closed so he can get caught up (due to COVID-19), he was more than happy to help us out! Putting the customer first is something we value here at Apache Village, we are very satisfied with how David practiced the same beliefs when helping us out! Whether you are looking for small parts, like we were, or if you are looking for a new bike.. David's Bicycle Shop is your place!

Impeccable customer service with unmatched mechanical knowledge. This is your one stop neighborhood bike shop. David and his team go above and beyond, I couldn't be happier with my bike.

Good bike shop to check out my sons bike repaired and new parts added great quality work. The bike was ready in No time . customer service great, shop is also clean and organized.

Didn't realize they were closed until after the owner invited me in and I noticed the lights were off. He insisted I stay and found the exact item I was looking for. This was going above and beyond and is much appreciated. Will definitely go back and highly recommend.
