WHY BIKE PEOPLE?

Indianapolis is best experienced on a bike. It’s how we fell in love with the city and why we want to help get more butts on bikes. We aim to be the place you trust for bike needs and your go-to resource hub and connection point for all things cycling. We’re proud to be downtown Indy’s community bike shop.

We’re all bike people here.

SERVICE PACKAGES

Bike repair service is the heart of our little family business. We’re proud of our work, we deeply value our customers, and we believe our Google Reviews reflect that. To make things smoother for everyone, we now offer scheduled drop-off appointments. Choose a time online to bring your bike in, and we’ll briefly review it together before outlining next steps. Some repairs can be completed quickly, while others require a little more time — we’ll always communicate a clear timeline after assessment. We offer a range of friendly bicycle repair services. Choose one of our service packages (named for our favorite local Indy trails) or build your own from our wallet-friendly a la carte menu.

  • Matt was amazing and so helpful! I have been working on a bike for about a year now and was looking for expert service to fix a few final issues. Every other bike shop quoted me $200+ and up to a month wait. He was able to fix it while I waited, for only $80, and explained everything he was doing as he went. 10/10 Excellent service!
