Stan is a certified by Winterbourne Bicycle Institute as bicycle mechanic. Winterbourne is one of only a few bicycle mechanic schools in Canada. When there, the other students were from around Ontario, Nova Scotia and Michigan.
We have two other Winterbourne graduates wrenching with us and a mechanic that has been fixing bikes on his own for a few years.
Our goal is to have your bike back in 1 – 3 days depending on work required, availability of parts (if required) and if Murphy makes an appearance or not.
If you have a flat, we can usually take care of that quickly if you drop by but anything else will take a little longer and an appointment.
