Super nice people to deal with with awesome service, VERY reasonably priced.
A lot of bike shops I’ve realized are full of snarky people who try to make you feel dumb for not knowing about bike mechanics and will charge you a ridiculous amount for a minimal amount of work.. Bob is the best!!
10/10 recommend this place!

Robert is the most honest person!!! He found my purse in the middle of the strip district and spent hours finding me. He returned it completely intact and I cannot thank him enough! You’re awesome Robert!!!

Great bike shop. I used to live nearby and stopped in briefly many times to get a bottle cage, helmet, small piece of hardware, etc. The people working here are kind and helpful, I’d definitely go back.

Came limping into the shop with a broken spoke and thankfully they weren't swamped, as I came to town for Labor Day to ride. Got to spend some time talking to the owner and techs about bikes, Pittsburgh, and more bikes and had a blast. They got me rolling better than I entered and suggested I get some more work when i get home.

My senses were overloaded with the bridges, hills, colors and unique architecture. Pittsburgh is an amazing place to ride, and if you have an ebike, this city would be a perfect place to put it to use. The hills are mostly doable, but some are just impossible

I was helped IMMEDIATELY with an old bottom bracket that needed new grease. They also scrounged around a bunch of boxes to find a matching dust cap for my crank. Super accommodating and friendly. 5 stars.

Very happy to have found this bike shop! The staff has a lot of knowledge, expertise and genuine passion about bikes. I went in with some issues I was having with my gears and they made several other adjustments that made my ride so much better after. Very helpful and friendly and answered all my questions. Will be going back here regularly.

These guys are great! I stopped by yesterday for a tune up. I knew they had about a week’s wait, but my bike needed such little work they just handled it on the spot! I am so pleased! And the price was reasonable, especially compared to another shop a mile down the road. I’ll definitely be returning when I need help again.

Friendly and knowledgeable folks at this place. Very helpful guidance towards continuing the cycling journey. Made some great adjustments to my bike, along with installing a few upgrades in a short time at a very reasonable price. I was highly appreciative of the explanations and answering my questions as I come to understand and learn more. Visiting this place left me feeling very inspired about our city's cycling ecosystem.

Absolutely AMAZING service!!! We called iron city bikes to see if they had an air pump after we noticed my bike tires were flat. They told us to come right in and we brought the bikes around the bike when we got there. They took my bike to fill up the tire and in the process did a completely inspection and tune up of my bike (fixed hardware on the front, fixed back brakes, greased the chain). Next, they grabbed my friends bike without us even asking and brought it back with air filled tires, fixed front brakes, and greased the gears. After all of these things being done, I asked how much it

I was just gifted a Peloton bike and needed different pedals / toe clips because I didn't have the Peloton bike shoes, and I wanted to start using it right away. The person I worked with at Iron City Bikes was so incredibly helpful. I called ahead and he let me know to take a few photos before coming by, and after he looked at the bike pedals he knew exactly what I needed. I actually needed a few different parts to build the toe clips, and the employee unpackaged everything and built them for me right in the store! I was so pleasantly surprised that he offered to do this and it was SO helpful

Great bike shop. This is our go to bike shop when our kids need a new bike as they grow. They sell quality bikes and won't try to sell you more than need/want. Service and bike tune up also excellent. Glad they are in the neighborhood!

I put a bike together myself so obviously i had huge problems with everything. I pulled my bike around back and sat there for a second before someone came to help me out. They were super busy but the guy behind the counter said "don't worry about it" and fixed my chain/brake issue in like 10 minutes. I'm sure I'll have more issues with my bike, and I'll be going back 100%. Great customer service.

Best bike shop ever! The bike technicians know what they're doing. I was in a bind with my bike and they fixed it at a reasonable cost. Stay safe!

A long-time cycling establishment located behind Pitt Univ's Hillman Library. They've relocated next door to The Franktuary restaurant. Hoping to share my love of cycling, by patronizing this jewel. However, my heart belongs to Biketek in Squirrel Hill, Frank B.

I've always had a good experience with Iron City Bikes. They were the first shop I bought a bike from in Pittsburgh and I've had many repairs, adjustments, and parts ordered through the shop since then.

They have always been helpful when diagnosing problems with my bikes and explaining what needed to be done and were happy to sell me the parts to do my own repairs as well when I preferred to do that.

Prices are reasonable for service and parts and the turnaround has always been quick on repairs where I had to leave the bike for service.

No pushiness or elitism, just good service

You want friendly staff? They got it.
What about reasonable prices? You better believe it. Product and service expertise? They're busting at the seams with it.
Nachos? Hopefully soon.

Inexpensive bike repair in the heart of Oakland. I am definitely grateful for the guys over at Iron City. Since Kraynick's and Free Ride are sort of on opposite ends of town, this is convenient for students and others in this part of town.

I felt overwhelmed trying to shop for a bike. Bob and his staff went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and even helped me enjoy the process. He even threw in an awesome beer cozy with a picture of his dog on it. Great experience, great staff, awesome dog.

Their customer service was above and beyond! Top notch. I fell off my bike and busted my seat. They gave me a great deal ($10) on a brand-new seat (ones that others left behind when buying bikes), ordered me some fenders online (because the in-store ones were out of my price range), called me when the fenders came in, put the fenders on and tuned up my bike free of charge (probably 1 hr's worth of service -- free of charge), and helped me figure out my bike light battery issue. This is so much than I could have ever expected. Brought them a little thank you/goodie bag because these two guys

I live just outside DC, but traveled to Pittsburgh in mid-September so that I could ride the full length of the GAP and C&O Canal, Pittsburgh to DC. I had already shipped my bike to the FedEx on Forbes (much cheaper than checking it on my flight). The FedEx guys were very nice, and let me reassemble my bike inside their store.

So I got my bike almost fully assembled - but then discovered that I did not know how to reattach the brake cables. You can't do a 360-mile ride without brakes! Fortunately, before my trip I had googled to see if there was a bike shop nearby, just in case I
