Blue Mounds Bicycle Works — Local services in Village of Blue Mounds

I got a really good deal on a new ZIPP 404 Firestrike, which is a limited version of the more readily available Firecrest, and slightly more advanced. It was listed on ebay as "come as is" which was without any tube, tire, and even skewer. When I inquired about the skewer, the price went up $50. I contacted the seller (owner of Blue Mounds Bicycle Works) about this and he agreed to sell the wheel for the original listed amount. I actually did a PAYPAL transaction with him which worked very well and the wheel arrived in a robust box. When I opened the box, the wheel was in a new ZIPP canvas bag, which also contained a new inner tube with an extended valve stem and new skewer. I couldn't have expected anything better than that. The wheel did not come "as shown", rather was shipped in the canvas bag, with skewer and tube. I bought a ZIPP 404 Firecrest rear wheel from a very close friend several weeks ago and now have a great matching front wheel with a cool...

If you're in the market for a mountain bike, I highly recommend this shop. The owner is a mountain biker himself and is very knowledgeable about the product lines he carries, listens to your needs, and he can help guide you to the right bike for your how you ride without pressure. He carries high-quality brands with build levels from base to top-end. His build quality is excellent with some details I haven't seen elsewhere, such as heat shrink wrap on adjacent cables for a clean look and quiet ride. He's also willing to customize or swap components to best fit rider needs or preferences. Prices are competitive and the same as you would find online or in other shops, but unlike buying online, these bikes are fully built for you and he can service and support what he sells.

This shop also gives back to the local mountain bike community through supporting the local trails and IMBA chapter. I'm happy to support this locally-owned shop and am thrilled with...

Zach is great, no nonsense, no pressure to buy, and really knows his stuff. Refreshing to work with someone who knows bikes as well as he does. As a small business owner, I appreciate other owners who pour their heart and soul into their business. He is the owner, mechanic and salesman, so he has the answers to all your questions. For such a small shop, there is a great variety of cool brands not easily found even in bigger stores. Love little shops like this. My return trip back for my free tune-up was an equally enjoyable experience as when when I first bought the bike. If you're looking for the cheapest place in town, go to the internet. If you value great service and are looking for fair and competitive pricing, cool bikes, and a local small shop - this is the place. Can't say enough good things...
