The guys here were great. I’ve ridden past many times but have never had a need to stop. Today needed some air in my tires and they were quick to stop what they were working on and help me out. Super nice and friendly. Highly recommend!

Avoid the hassle and worry of putting together a bicycle yourself and let us come to wherever you are in the Chicagoland area and expertly put your bike together for you on the spot fresh from the box. You want more than a bike assembly. You want to know your bike arrived undamaged, is assembled correctly, and is tuned to perfection, and stays in tune all season. We will ensure all of these needs!
The 10-Step Process
We’ll inspect your new bike for any damage that may have occurred during shipping, as well as for manufacturer defects. This includes checking for any scratches, cracks, or dents and checking the alignment of the frame.
During this step, we get your frame ready to have parts attached. This includes applying grease and other compounds to various parts of the frame to ensure everything is running as intended.
This is the step where we install the pedals, the seat, and the front wheel, as well as any additional accessories your bike came with. Incorrectly installed pedals can lead to major damage to your bike down the line, and a front wheel installed incorrectly could fall off during a ride.
Every tire has a pressure range that it should stay within to be safe. We inflate your tires to the correct pressure for the size of the tires and the rider. We’ll also make sure your tubes didn’t go flat during shipping.
Ball bearings take more force than any other part of the bike. If they’re not properly compressed they will be subject to increased wear and a much shorter lifespan. We make sure your bearings are properly compressed for a smooth ride.
Wheels are not always true (straight/flat) when they leave the factory. Out of true wheels will rub the brake pads making it very hard to pedal, unless the brakes are loosened which decreases braking power. We use a truing stand to adjust your wheel and make sure it is completely straight, allowing full braking power without causing excessive resistance.
Derailleurs are responsible for shifting your chain from one gear to the next. We dial in the limits of the derailleur to prevent your chain from falling off and adjust the cable tension so that each step of your derailleur is properly aligned with the corresponding gear.
Brakes are one of the most important parts of the bike to get right. We make sure your brakes are adjusted to the correct tension and center themselves properly. We also adjust the brake pads to ensure maximum stopping power.
Various bolts on every bike are responsible for holding parts in place firmly. If these bolts are loose, parts can shift on you while riding, causing a crash or preventing your bike from functioning properly. If the bolts are too tight, they can cause irreparable damage to your bike. We have the equipment to make sure each bolt is tightened to the exact specification.
Riding a bike that doesn’t fit you well can cause knee, back, and shoulder pain. When you pick up your bike, we’ll check your riding position to ensure your seat and handlebars are positioned well for you.
What Our Previous Happy Customers Say
Big shout out to Dylan and Wes at this spot. Def saved my life after a long lakeshore drive ride and my seat needed to be swapped out. They hooked it up and I’m glad that are in business on the lakefront. Very clutch!!
Thank you to the people here at third coast cycles. My bike was loose at the handles and they were right here on the bike path to make it convenient for me to get it fixed. I appreciate that they exist!
Marc and his team are so professional and great to work with! They were so patient explaining to us which bike will fit the best and went above and beyond with their service. We were very pleased with everything and will definitely be returning to them again!
Drove to Chicago to buy a bicycle from them. Drove 5 hours on a Saturday morning. About an hour away from there, the owner called and said the bike wouldn’t be there for a couple of hours, so he bought me lunch and gave recommendations. Took it off the price of the bike and gave me an additional discount for the inconvenience. Super nice people.
My husband and I needed our bikes tuned up and tires replaced. We’ve used Marc before and didn’t hesitate to reach out again. He’s super friendly and has a lovable furry sidekick, Ronald, to help. 🙂 He’s very responsive and great with communication! You won’t be disappointed.
I appreciate the time and effort they put into fixing my tire and brakes on my e-bike. Gave me a fair price for it too.
Great service. Great collection of bikes. All around great folks. I’m happy they are on the trail.
Came from Texas to visit and had exceptional service!
The reservationists communicated with me the day before to ensure I had all the specifications needed.
