Everyday Cycles & Motion

Really nice people. The shop itself is really well organised and looks nice. Stuff in Evanston is pretty expensive but out of the expensive bike shops, Everyday is definitely the least expensive. I’m getting a standard tune up done for 75 $ and replacement parts run my total to around 120 $ (hopefully less). So it is expensive but honestly it’s the only option in Evanston.
I recommend this place big time! :)

Wow, this bike shop is great! I recently bought a bike there and they have such great service and a great customer experience. I’m a bit of a picky shopper, and I compared to other bike shops in Evanston, and Everyday Cycles has completely won me over.
Some of the great things:
* Knowledgeable staff helps you choose the right things for your needs, whether fitting you to a bike or looking for an accessory.
* Not pushy or overly sales-​y.
* The shop is small, so there is not a lot of product on hand, but you can tell that the products they carry have been vetted… It seems like someone working there has done research on the products and hand-​picked the best products out there, so there may be only a few items to choose from, but they are the ones you would want anyway. They can also order items, of course.
* Customer service went above and beyond expectations to address a minor manufacturer issue.
* Convenient location
Story time: The bicycle I chose to purchase (after a great experience trying out different bikes with different frame sizes) had a manufacturing defect on the rim. They swapped the rim with the same kind from another bike, which to me would have resolved the issue, because this other rim was satisfactory and would have completely evened out after breaking it in. (The original, defective rim was sent back to the manufacturer.)
However, they went above and beyond and decided that they wanted to put a different, better model of rims on this type of bike, so they essentially upgraded my rims, which exceeded my expectations!
I love the bike, love the shopping experience, advice, and expertise. I look forward to giving them more of my business.
