This is a great Ottawa bike shop and the service department helped me out a couple of weeks ago. I generally deal with the Hintonburg location, but the St. Laurent shop is near where I work. About 2 weeks ago at lunch time, I noticed that my winter bike had a flat tire... and then noted that my spokes (front wheel) were unbelievably loose and I could pinch them and they would bend... not good. I cycle 22 km to work, my partner was out of town and I had a meeting after my work day at a location about 15 km away... and in essence I had no transportation if my bike was out of commission. I called Full Cycle St. Laurent and they told me what wheels they had in stock. I headed to the shop after work and even though they were busy servicing bikes, the person who sold me the wheel installed the rim tape, but in a new tube and changed the tire in about 10 minutes and had me on my way to my meeting. This was totally amazing and saved me on what could have been a disastrous day. This just reflects how Full Cycle Ottawa is customer oriented and take service seriously. Thanks to the folks who helped me on the phone and in the shop on this day. And from what I understand, Full Cycle is also a good employer as it treats employees with respect and provides a living wage to its workforce. Keep up the great work at Full Cycle!
