Free Assessments
We take the time to proactively fix problems you didn't even know you had, before they cost you more time, money, or your safety.
Regular checkups - even when your bike been working fine and there aren't any specific issues - is key to saving money in the long haul and having a safe bike that lasts.
Just ask any one of the thousands of customers we've helped - you can trust us for a fair, honest, free assessment.
No appointments needed for service, so you are free to bring your bike in any time we're open.
Once you arrive we'll go through your bike together to see what it needs, and from there we'll be able to give you a detailed quote and timeline to complete work (in the summer this may be as much as 5-7 days, in the winter it may only be a few hours).
Regular Checkups Are Essential
If it has been longer than a year since you've had a good look at your bike, bring it in for a free assessment. We'll tell you what we think it needs and why, so that you can make an informed decision about how to spend your money and time.
Our Annual Tuneups cover the entire bike - more than some other shops. If you're going to get a tuneup, our opinion is that the entire bike should be checked, adjusted, and safe.
e-Bikes
Electric bicycles are great if you want to get there faster, ride further, or just need an extra boost. We have an entire page dedicated to ebikes, including the top five things we think you should know when considering a purchase.
Gravel Bikes: Surly, Giant, Niner, Bombtrack, and more
Escape the chaos or create a bit of your own.

Our Philosophy
We believe that bikes are for everyone. Cycling should be everything: fun, challenging, utilitarian, extravagant, simple or as complex as the rider wants it to be. At Handy Bikes, our goal is to provide a safe, approachable place for riders of all ages and abilities to bring their bikes for advice, repairs, and support.
Featured Brands
Widefoot
Makers of cool cages, rack mounts, and other cargo carrying solutions. Their Liter Cage is our favorite to carry large Nalgene bottles, and their CargoMount is the original one-piece aluminum low profile cargo bracket solution.
Old Man Mountain
Launching from Oregon, OMM is putting out some really cool and extra heavy duty racks that can mount to anything - even the back of full suspension bikes.
kLite
The benchmark for expedition grade lighting solutions. Around the block or across a continent, kLite is going to show the way to get you there.
Hunt Wheels
We first learned about Hunt Wheels through Bombtrack Bicycles, as several of their models come with Hunt's wheels. We were immediately impressed by the quality and performance of these wheels. We're now direct dealers and have started using them on custom build projects and upgrades for our own bikes as well as customers.
Rene Herse
Rene Herse Cycles is one of the most well known names in adventure cycling, for very good reason. We're huge fans of their tires in particular, but they offer tons more including racks and accessories.
Velo Orange
Since Velo Orange is just down the road in Annapolis, we had to get an account. It also just so happens that they make some of the best parts, accessories and equipment anywhere for discerning cyclists everywhere.
Sinewave Cycles
We're gear nerds, so when we learned about this Cambridge, MA company specializing solely in dynamo USB charging products, we had to get on board. Their Beacon light with integrated USB charger is incredible, and their Revolution and Reactor standalone charger options complement any existing system.
Swift Industries
Handmade awesomeness. The last bag you'll ever buy. Waterproof, bombproof, and really pretty cool looking as well. We can order anything from their catalog, although if their site says something is sold out we probably are sold out too.
Infinity Bike Seat
The last seat (saddle) you'll ever want to ride. Infinity bike seats look weird, but they work. Technically I can explain why, but it still doesn't seem like it makes any sense. Come try one out and see for yourself!
