Because I live in Michigan, retired law enforcement, and keenly aware of all the scams on various other sites (Market place, etc.) I was skeptical. However, after days of combing the internet, I could not find one negative thing about Mike or BCBC- So I took a chance- What a great experience!! I spoke to Mike a few times- he was very attentive and great to work with. Once I agreed to purchasing the 2022 Roubaix on a Sunday, it was on my front porch on Thursday- in 4 days! NO issues at all- a quality Bike at a fair price! (actually, a really good price). Highly recommend.
If you are searching for someone who embodies passion, expertise, and integrity in the world of bicycles, look no further than Mike. My experience with him was nothing short of exceptional, and I feel compelled to share just how impactful his knowledge and approach are to anyone considering a bicycle purchase.
Mike's expertise is unparalleled. Whether you're discussing Trek, Specialized, Giant, or any other renowned manufacturer, Mike has an in-depth understanding of what sets each brand apart. He doesn't just sell bicyclesâhe educates. He takes the time to explain the nuances of different frame types, sizes, and materials, ensuring that you fully understand the options available. From aluminum to carbon fiber, and from road bikes to mountain bikes, Mike provides insights that help you make an informed decision tailored to your needs.
One of the highlights of my interaction with Mike was his explanation of Shimano Group Sets. His knowledge of these components was astounding. He broke down the differences between various models with ease and clarity, offering valuable insights into their functionality and performance. It was clear that he wasnât merely reciting information; he genuinely cared that I understood the technical aspects of the bicycle I was considering.
What truly sets Mike apart, however, is his moral compass. In a world where many sellers focus solely on making a sale, Mike stands out as someone who prioritizes your best interests. Heâs not just trying to sell you a bicycle; heâs committed to helping you find the right bicycle. His honesty and sincerity are rare qualities that make him a pillar of the biking community.
You can browse Facebook Marketplace and eBay for hours and perhaps find a great deal on a bicycle, but you wonât find someone like Mike. His passion for teaching, combined with his extensive knowledge and integrity, make him an invaluable resource. He is a scholar and a gentleman, someone who approaches every interaction with kindness, patience, and a genuine desire to help.
Mike is more than a seller; heâs a mentor, an advocate, and a friend to anyone seeking sincere advice about bicycles. If youâre looking for guidance on your cycling journey, I can confidently say you wonât find anyone better than Mike. He truly is a treasure in the biking world, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have learned from him.
Spent 3 hours with Mike looking for 2 bikes for my sons, who are just getting into the sport. They werenât expecting to leave with 2 bikes, but how could they not. First, Mike had a HUGE selection of bikes (various brands, all with upgraded components) ⌠they were able to âtest driveâ about 5, 6 bikes each. He was SO patient and even gave them a tutorial on the different bikes. Mike gave off a trustworthy vibe and you can tell he knows his stuff and stands by his products. You feel his enthusiasm for the sport. We bought a Trek Emonda and a Specialized Roubaix. Would recommend that anyone who is looking for a pre-loved bike reach out to him.
I purchased a set of carbon wheels from Mike through his website. They were well packed, in great shape, and Mike shipped them on the requested date to make sure I was home. Very pleased. Thank you!
Bought a 2015 Cervelo R3 from Mike not long ago. between the ride home from BK to Queens and few laps in Central Park to a Bear Mountain Century, I have been nothing but happy with the purchase. A really great bike, excited for the next ride. Mike was really helpful getting the bike setup and was generally a pleasure to work with. Will buy from again.
