Best bike shop in NOLA. Every time I have a bike issue they solve it immediately and for a price that is beyond fair. Super friendly, never condescending, if you need bike work done this is the place.

Fixed my flat and another issue that I couldn't get Bicycle Michaels to fix properly months before. Definitely great service! My bike rides like a dream now.

Let me put it this way. I've used yelp for years and have only ever been inspired to leave a review on this place.
Rock on Gerken's! -

The folks in the shop have always been terrific. I don't wait longer than five minutes for someone to greet me professionally, they know what they're doing, and it's a fairly priced, quick turnaround.

I went to this shop based on yelp reviews and man oh man. . . I think I've found THE bike shop.
Original recommendation
As a girl who has ridden the roads of New Orleans and has beat up a good many bikes, I have gone to a fair amount of bike shops. I went in today dubious, but they were super helpful and kind. I took it in for just a tune-up and ended up getting a new chain, kevlar tires, and a back rack. I went to a coffee shop about half a block away while I waited for just a few hours. I thought it was going to be super pricey since I had decided to treat myself/my bike, but it ended up being super affordable.
Basically: wonderful service and reasonable prices. They are my new go-to.
You know a place is good when it inspires you to write a yelp review.
