Danny’s Cycles

I am serious cyclist and recently moved to the area. Brought my bike into Danny’s for a rear dérailleur adjustment… they worked on my bike for free since I was a first time customer and the fix wasn’t too tough.
Will be back — I found my shop.

Called in to give a heads up that I needed a flat fixed on the spot for a bike trip. Got there just before closing and the guys took care of me in ten minutes. I think the tech’s name was Al. Thanks a million! Thanks for fixing my problem on such short notice!

Just wanted to update my previous review. I dropped off my Trek bike for a free tuneup, which comes with the purchase of a bike at Danny’s. They called the next day to save the service had been completed. The service could not have been friendlier or the people more helpful. This bike shop is the best in Fairfield County in my experience. I highly recommend it.

My friend was in Tobay triathlon Aug 23, 2014, rented a road bike from Sunrise Cyclery, which was awesome and were very happy with it. Two days later when returning his rented bike, I needed my bike break pad adjust and was told it wasn’t a simple work, need to leave the bike over night that the work was involved. I couldn’t leave the bike cuz I had no way of picking it up. We are going on a camping trip this Labor Day weekend, tomorrow, taking our bikes, my bike need to be fixed, so he took my bike with him so he can try to get it fix near by him which was Danny’s Cycles. Yesterday he took my bike to Danny’s Cycles, SURPRISINGLY THEY FIXED IT IN SECONDS NO CHARGE. what can I say?! Let’s see how well it works over the weekend, very happy for now!

I would never recommend this shop to anyone. For a routine tune-​up involving truing of wheels and adjusting of the dérailleur, Frank (the person in charge of repairs) cut my chain, brake and shifter cables, destroyed the cable housing, and took off the brakes. He claimed that all these parts needed to be replaced and proceeded to show me an almost $ 400 bill. This bill quoted charges for parts at almost twice their actual MSRP (while claiming to be the MSRP). I had to pay up $ 50 just to get my bike back in worse condition than I left it in and with one less brake. To undo this damage and to get the tune-​up I originally requested cost me a very reasonable $ 110 in a reputable New York-​based bike shop.
Be warned, this is not a place I would entrust my bike to for repairs or put any faith in their honesty.

I’ve got to say I rarely write these things. It’s only when something is really good or really bad. In this case, I am happy to report it has all been great. Danny’s has gone out of their way to make a tough situation great. I unfortunately had a frame crack on a new bike that I purchased here. (BTW, Trek was great through this as well.) Since it was a complete writeoff for the bike, it took Trek a while to process the claim. Instead of making it my issue, Danny’s let me use at no cost a rental bike for the entire time I was out of commission.

Wow! What should I say about John. He is a terrific guy. we just bought a bike for my wife. John started from the basics, telling her what sorts of bikes to look at, whats the difference between different bikes, how gears work, whats the right frame size, etc. My wife is kind of a newbie, and in other shops she was hesitant to even ask. But John made sure that she tested all sorts of bikes. They let us, infact encouraged us, to test ride. They have a big parking area, where you can easily ride around.
The Trek Bodega which we wanted wasn’t available for her size. John called up some other shop and got it from there!
Basically rather than pushing us to buy the wrong size, he made it happen the right way. Really appreciate it.
Infact my wife was wearing sandals, so he even fitted her with brand new shoes and fresh pair of socks!
Little things like getting a matching color helmet, right fit, matching bottle cage, spare tires. We ended up buying the twin bike mount for our Audi, even though it was cheaper on Amazon, because John helped us mount it. We didn’t expect that!
This is the place to go if you want a bike. I am from India and just came here. This was by far the best shopping experience.
Just to point out, the prices of the accessories are higher than what you will get on Amazon. So may be you can skip that part. But for the bike, you have to get it from there :)
Way to go Dannys! Keep it up!
