Area Bike Shop Recs?

Late last year we acquired some pretty sweet vintage Schwinn bikes, they weren't too expensive, but need some repair work.  I was wondering if anyone knew of a bike repair shop that does work on vintage models (these bikes are both from the 70s) or a place that you've had good experience with that didn't grossly overcharge you for repairs.

Its probably a shot in the dark, and I'll check on Yelp, but TIA!

Re: Area Bike Shop Recs?

  • There is one on Mass Ave in Central Square- across from Le Meridien by MIT that does vintage bikes. I don't know about cost though.
  • H and I just got bikes the other day from International Bicycle in Newton on Needham St. The whole staff was extremely helpful.
  • MH just bought a bike this weekend from Salem Cycle and my Schwinn is currently there getting a tune up, costing roughly $50-$60. My Schwinn isn't vintage but I'm sure they could work on yours.
  • Wheel Works in Belmont is awesome!  It tends to get really busy this time of year, but the tune ups are great.  You certainly pay for it, but with a vintage I think it would be worth it.  GL and enjoy the bikes!
