What a Bike Tune-Up Actually Costs (and What You're Paying For)

“How much for a tune-up?” is one of the most common questions we get, and it’s a fair one — the word “tune-up” means different things at different shops. Here’s exactly what you get at each level with us, and how to know which one your bike actually needs.

Basic Tune-Up — $69 + parts

This is the right call if your bike shifts and brakes fine but feels a little neglected — a chain that’s dry, gears that hunt occasionally, a wobble in one wheel. It covers gear and brake adjustments, drivetrain cleaning and lube, a bearing check, wheel truing, and tire inflation.

Annual Tune-Up — $129 + parts

Our most popular service, and the one we’d recommend once a year for a bike that gets ridden regularly. It includes everything in the Basic tier plus a full component inspection, bearing maintenance, a deeper drivetrain service, seatpost lubrication, and a check that everything is torqued to spec — the stuff that prevents small issues from becoming expensive ones.

Comprehensive — $249 + parts

This is a full rebuild: complete disassembly, bare frame cleaning, every bearing serviced, all cables replaced, everything reassembled to spec. Good for a bike that’s been sitting for a while, was bought used with unknown history, or just needs to feel new again.

What “+ Parts” Usually Means

Labor is quoted separately from parts because every bike needs different things — a worn chain, a set of brake pads, new cables and housing. We’ll always tell you what needs replacing and why before we do it, not after.

Most tune-ups turn around in 3–5 business days, with express service available if you ask in store. Not sure which tier your bike needs? See the full service menu or bring it in and we’ll tell you straight.
