Bicycle Assembly
Yes, we assemble bicycles, even if you didn't purchase it from us. We love getting people on new bikes!
If you've purchased a bicycle online, we can help get it fully and properly assembled.
This service is designed to be comprehensive - the entire bike will be properly reassembled and readjusted from its condition when it left the factory. We find that although boxed bikes are advertised as being "90% assembled", it often turns out that although it's 90% assembled, it's only 50% correct. If you purchased a bike online and have encountered difficulties getting it finalized, we'd be happy to help.
Pros: • The bike will function properly - we guarantee it! • You won't have to spend time assembling the bike yourself. • You won't have to worry about making a mistake while assembling the bike. • You'll have peace of mind knowing the bike was assembled by a professional with decades of experience. • Also, and most importantly, many bike manufacturers won't honor their warranty on the bike unless it has been professionally assembled by a shop like Handy Bikes. | Cons: • The cost of professional assembly can be high relative to the cost of the bike itself. This is due to our level of attention to detail, and the level of complexity inherent in bicycles - even the simple ones. • You will have to wait for the bike to be assembled if you don't do it yourself. It takes us about 1-2 hours to do the work once we get to your bike, and there is usually a 2-3 day wait before it is your bike's turn to be worked on. |

Note: These prices are for bikes which come partially assembled from the factory. If your bike needs hydraulic brake flushing, needs to be set up with tubeless tires, needs the steerer tube cut, etc., additional charges will apply at 50% off their respective a-la-carte rates. Rates for bikes that come as a bare frame with all parts needing to be installed are higher; please contact us for details.
