Good Bike Wrench in NYC

[Alan]

Can anyone recommend a good bike wrench in NYC. Just moved out here in Brooklyn.

Is Toga or Larry&Jeffs good. I've heard good/bad things about Bicycle Habitat. I guess it depends
which guy is working on your bike also.....

True enough in any bike shop.

I haven't used them for repairs but I have rented a road bike from them a few times and generally
found them in terrible repair requiring trips back to the store to make ridable. The last time I
gave up and returned the bike unused, I called Bicycle Habitat who took a new bike out of a box,
built it and rented it to me the next day for less money than I was paying before. I thought they
were OK on the customer service side anyway, haven't had them repair any of my own either. Both
Bicycle Habitat and Larry and Jeff's have done reasonable work I have inspected on my
father-in-law's bikes.

Michael Rodriguez in the Bicycle Station-in the Park Slope area-highly recommended from a woman who
used to own a shop in Brooklyn, this guy worked for her.

There's more to it than just a bike shop.
