Winooski Wheels

This review is coming in 8 months late … but that the thing - Winooski Wheels and Dan (and his partner Lauren) are so absolutely 5 star fabulous that I haven’t stopped thinking about them. Picture this, three friends on a bike trip and one of them gets TWO FLATS on the first day due to a complicated wheel situation. We were feeling low and then a precious miracle happened when we went to Winooski - DAN! Winooski Wheels is so charming, the merch is scorching so we all bought hats and t-shirts. Dan stayed late to work on the bike, he figured out what was wrong (it was messy) and he fixed it (that bike had zero wheel probs on the rest of the trip). Dan saved our bike trip! Winooski isn’t a bike/ski/sports store, it’s a real deal bike shop with an expert mechanic. Go there immediately if you have any bike needs.

If it’s got wheels, Dan (aka Mr. Fix-It) can fix it! (Legend has it that the name “Winooski Wheels” may have narrowly edged out “Mr. Fix-It”…) My family has taken care of all of our bicycle needs at Winooski Wheels for years. As a regular bicycle commuter, I have appreciated Dan’s high quality & timely service, and his insightful & friendly approach to maintaining a reliable ride. But nothing beat the time when Dan helped me get a rental power tool (with wheels!) back up & running during a home improvement project—this guy does it all! 5/5
