All of the Chrises are fantastic. Chris who fixed my flat tire was not only skilled but also took the time to listen to my concerns. He went the extra mile by adjusting my bike so we could remove the pedal extenders, restoring my confidence on the streets. I truly value their commitment and the personalized care they put into every detail.
Mr. Vice was so kind and took the time to understand my issue and respond by recommending multiple great options for me to choose from while discussing the pros and cons of each option. He helped me get excited about improving my bike and the kindness of the bike community as a whole. Thanks, Mr. Vice and Cahaba Cycles!
I had been installing new tubeless tires on to my road bike and had already overcome getting very tight tires on to the wheels with a help from a riding partner. Unfortunately, the tire was so tight that I could not create enough air pressure (our compressor is missing in action) to get the side walls to push out to meet the wheel and seat itself. Finally gave up trying and took the wheels into the Homewood shop. I don't do failure well, so it was difficult to admit defeat. All was GREAT at the shop though. The tires both got seated on the wheels and I learned a new trick for tight tires. Glad to have friendly bike mechanics that don't make you feel like a failure.
