"I had a desperate failure of a major piece of equipment on my specialized bike just 7 days prior to attending a 100km ride in Melbourne"
"Darren is amazing"
"Big thanks to Sam in the workshop at Bike Society in the CBD"
"Also poor service"
"Sam in the city store is amazing! Super helpful, welcoming, knowledgeable, approachable, and an all-around good fella"
I had a desperate failure of a major piece of equipment on my specialized bike just 7 days prior to attending a 100km ride in Melbourne. Allowing for AFL Grand final public holidays and Labour Day public holidays I really only had 4 days for the part to be sourced from Melbourne and fitted in Adelaide before leaving for Victoria. The staff at Bike Society were amazing- very knowledgeable, very forthcoming with a fix. Really nice people. Highly recommend any purchase from Bike Society and ongoing maintenance. Would certainly buy from Bike Society again.
Darren is amazing. He spent (what feels like) over an hour with me helping me decide on my next bike. Extremely insightful and passionate about his expertise. I would have made the wrong choice if it wasn't for him, appreciate his assistance a lot. Like. A LOT. Along with Dirk who was extremely patient on delivery day when it came to explaining how my new bikes features worked. Thanks again guys, this is my second bike from you, I'll be back for another I'm sure
Big thanks to Sam in the workshop at Bike Society in the CBD. A piece from a metal jigsaw went straight through my Roval CL50 rim while riding on ANZAC hwy. Even though I bought the wheels at a Specialized dealer in Sydney, Sam lodged the crash repair with Specialized straight away, and six days later, I am riding with a new rim, all covered by the crash repair. The process was seamless and a lot faster than I had expected. Thanks for the great work and service!
Also poor service. Walked into the Hove branch today. No eye contact, no smile, no welcome. Stood around the counter for 10 minutes. The 2 staff members had customers but were not doing a transaction, just talking. I walked out. The customers were middle aged men. I was a woman who doesn't appear to be a cyclist. But my husband loves it, it's his birthday tomorrow, so I was set to spend some money. I walked out. It was like I wasn't even there in the store.
Sam in the city store is amazing! Super helpful, welcoming, knowledgeable, approachable, and an all-around good fella. Provided me great service and help, answered all my crazy questions , and is honestly the reason I bought my bike from these guys - and what a bike it is! (Stumpjumper evo elite alloy) Hopefully management acknowledge these great attributes in Sam, and make them a focus for the rest of the staff, especially at the Hove store.
Quality friendly service from the team at Bike Society. Had my new canyon frame rebuilt and perfect and nothing too much trouble. Also asked if they could change my drive chain on indoor trainer and it was done in an instant. No questions. As a female with limited experience and knowledge of how bikes work this is the perfect place. They will go out of their way to help you without condescending. My new go to place for all my bike needs.
Bought a Specialized helmet here today - one of the top rated on both the Virginia Tech helmet rating tests & Folksam/Road Safety extended safety tests (tests above the Australian/US/EU standards). Plenty of colours and sizes in stock to see and try it out, some helpful service and advice, and helmet was recently manufactured (not from 3 years ago like another shop I went to!). Will use these guys again for sure. Big thanks!
Had my MalvernStar OPPY serviced by bike society last week. Can’t speak highly enough about their service and attention to detail. Clearly an experienced crew who know their business. Loved their communication from beginning to end including hearing the hard truth about the future of my old rim brakes - but for now they’re in great shape after the service. Happy to recommend Bike Society to anyone. Thanks very much.
Went to four different bike stores in the city: Reid, Giant, Bicycle Express and Bike Society. Bike Society was a cut above the rest, clear pricing and online stock indicators, they built a bike for me in under an hour and didn’t pressure me to buy that model, just let me try it. Supportive, friendly staff and a large range of adult bikes to choose from (and plenty of L/XL stock). Thanks for the Sirrus!
The Bike Society were great to deal with helping me to size and source a new Aethos road bike recently. They just ordered the bike size in we thought would suit me without any financial upfront commitment from me. This is really great service. Mark spent a lot of time with me sizing it up to make sure it was suitable too. I’m really happy with the purchase, the bike is just amazing to ride.
Excellent service. The colour scheme on the Specialized I was interested in wasn't in store but they were happy to order it in so I could see it. A few days later they had one ready to look at. Great communication, super friendly service, excellent pricing. Was really happy to purchase from them. They helped set me up with a bike fit before I left. Fantastic experience, highly recommend.
It was quick & easy to sort out. I ordered by phone & had it sent out. Which was prompt & well packaged up. Had confirmation that the parcel had left Bike Society in the City & was given a tracking number. So communication was first class. I would have no hesitation in using this service again. The only problem I had was ordering online but that could well have been just me
Amazing service! I was in urgent need of a hangar and was desperately trying to source one. Not only did bike society have one, they expressed shipped it to me in record time so I could participate in an event, massive shout out to Chelsea who gave me regular updates on the delivery, absolutely no need to do so, but something that was massively appreciated!
I took my bike in for their 'complete service', with issues around brakes rubbing, and asking for my hydro disc brake cables to be shortened and re-routed. They ended up charging me for a 'basic service', since they said everything else was in good working order and didn't justify the higher charge, and I raced the bike today, and it's never felt so smooth!
Thanks Dirk at Bike Society for some great personalised service. Dirk was very helpful with a warranty issue on my Specialised Helmet. Dirk was quick to contact Specialised overnight and contact me the following morning with the outcome being a full helmet replacement. Great help and a quick turnaround. Thanks Dirk and Specialised, regards Phil...
Awesome service from start to end , qudos to Sam waymouth street store, great pre- delivery demonstration/explaination along with showing how to load it in a small hatch back, also plenty of parking space at rear, so it takes out the anxiety of finding a park in CBD. Highly recommend store specially for someone novice like me getting into cycling.
I can't thank the team at Bike Society Adelaide enough for their help with sorting an issue I had with my Specialized e-bike, not only did they fix the issue with great timing and communication but I am even happier with the bike now than I was before! Highly recommend them for your next purchase, 5 stars easily, thanks again :)
Subpar customer service. Walked in an empty store with two blokes that had zero interest in serving. Poker face throughout conversation with one. Was all ready to splurge as a random purchase for weekend biking but left due to poor attitude. Overall disappointing experience, would definitely recommend other bike stores in town.
Was down for Tour Down Under and these guys were more than happy to assist with a front derailleur adjustment on the spot. Staff are all very welcoming and knowledgeable. Wouldn’t shop anywhere else in Adelaide for bike related needs. Was so good bought a bike through them too. Thanks guys appreciated everything
Somebody stole the front quick release off my partners bike while parked in the city. Went to this shop and got a new one in no time. Guy looked busy but took his time to find a replacement for her bike which might have been some kind of a mission as she brought the bike from germany. Recommende this shop!
Went in for a saddle this morning. Really can’t express how great the service was. Friendly guys, great advice using the retul machine to get size right. I’ve been to the Brighton store before which was also excellent - good to see the city store just as good!
A great business that I will continue to support on account of knowledgeable service staff that are a joy to deal with. I’m not bike savvy and they’ve always done their best to help me understand and I’ve never felt like I need to know the products to fit in.
Happy with my purchase from Sydney Communication was efficient, shipping was fast, bike needed a bit of adjustment to the brakes and derailleurs but its understandable for interstate purchase. Would make a great Local Bike Shop. Would buy from again for sure
I purchased a Specialized road bike for my husband from Bike Society. I had no idea what size to purchase but they assisted me quickly and sent the bike to Brisbane in a timely fashion. Excellent service & super knowledgeable. My husband is wrapped :-)
Gobsmacked. Came in for a tyre inflation on a skate: not really their gig, but happy to oblige and took it really seriously. And they have coffee! Clearly bike people, but impressively friendly. Will definitely be coming back!
They were very helpful and knowledgeable, what they didn't know they found out and didn't charge too much for assistance with setting up my bike on an indoor trainer, though I do still need a part and another adjustment.
Everyone in the shop have been amazing such a friendly bunch of guy’s they spend the time with you to answer all your questions and know what there talking about and they have gone above and beyond to help me out. …
I purchased a bike here for my son after shopping around earlier in the year. I don’t usually write reviews, but the service during and after has been exceptional. I would definitely buy a bike from these guys again.
Kraig at Bike Society exemplifies outstanding customer service, deep knowledge of his products and a willingness to spend the time with customers to fully understand and meet their needs. A pleasure to deal with!
Craig serviced my bike and I couldn’t be happier. Riding like new again. He was great to deal with. Very prompt and professional. Would highly recommend Craig at Bike Society for any of your cycling needs.
Bike Society offers a very personal and professional service. And their products are wonderful! (The cycling top will be exhibited in the Florence Broadhurst exhibition at Bundaberg Regional Gallery.)
The absolute best LBS and I’m in Sydney!! Thanks to Dirk and the legends, super helpful and always a breeze to deal with and the crew always goes the extra step to sort out my bike needs 5 Stars
These guys are absolutely brilliant. If they don’t have what I’m looking for, they order it and it’s there within day. Postage times are also quick. Won’t get my bike gear from anywhere else!
Purchased a bike online but was out of the metro free delivery, they phoned offered to delivery it at no extra cost on Good Friday as one of their staff was heading down my way. A+++ service.
Friendly, informative, non pushy service. Supported me with my decisions and understood my needs. I'm in love with my bike and in love with this service. Can't recommend highly enough!
I had the best experience purchasing a new bike Prompt and professional service Would highly recommend if your looking for some new wheels Call the team at Bike Society Thank you
Bike Society were awesome. Kraig helped me find the right bike searching the entire country, worked a trade and got it built. Amazing customer service and he’s just a good bloke!
Highly recommend, I ordered a bike in the middle of the covid bike shortage and the shop followed through, keeping me informed of supply issues - Dirk was really helpful. Thanks
I purchased two Specialized Mountain Bikes from Josh and he’s customer service was amazing . Highly professional and would recommend purchasing a bike from Bike Society .
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Serviced my bike and sorted a couple of issues unknown to me to get me rolling smoothly again all in time and for a reasonable cost.
Always do a great job with my 4 star service. Go above and beyond to cater for little personal preferences, upfront with cost and communicate any changes clearly.
Popped in for a coffee and advice. Not buying anything. Tristan was more than happy to make me feel welcome and gave lots of good info. Coffee was good too!
Popped in on my way home because my back wheel felt a bit shakey, the guys working there were really nice and eager to help out. Will definitely be back!
Very prompt and great value service. Also kept me in the loop throughout the process. Most importantly, my bike is riding perfectly. Very happy!
Expert advice, real enthusiasm to make sure we are getting the most out of our bike and their real world experience with the products showed.
Great people, really helpful with choosing the bike, gave honest comparisons to bikes sold at other stores and bikes are super good!
An awesome bunch of guys. Nothing to small, nothing they can't or won't help you with A++ or 5 ***** rating any day of the week.
Really good service here, the fellas helped me out installing a pizza rack that they'd ordered in for me. Above and beyond.
Ordered some new tyres and tubes for a kid's BMX. Goods arrived reasonably promptly, well packaged, and as described.
Happy with selection of variety of bikes. Very accommodating and professional staff. Will definitely buy here again.
Great customer service I have met in Adelaide, they really help and give you professional advise before any charges!
I needed a front wheel to be set up tubeless. Bike Society went out of their way to get the job done in quick time.
Excellent customer service with all questions answered and I was able to pick up my bike 2 days after ordering it.
They’ve got the bikes like Scott, Specialized etc that am similar with and very knowledgeable staffs to deal with.
Fast and professional service. If you have a Specialized bike that’s the best place to service it in Adelaide.
Brakes weren't any good. Bike brakes fixed. Bike in good working order. Everything good. Recommended.
Went in for a saddle. Sat down three times. Got a saddle. More comfortable than my old one. Good job.
Took my bike in for a service. Very friendly and helpful staff and it’s now riding better than ever.
Great place, great service. Dirk and the guys in the Adelaide city Store are always great. Cheers!
Excellent service. I had a puncture repaired and also the tyres upgraded on my Rockhopper. Thanks!
Replaced the busted bearings on my well used carbon wheelset. Now just like new. Thanks Jason.
I took my Felt TT in for a full service and it rides better than new! Would highly recommend .
