Early Season Tune-Up Deal!

If you drop your bike off for a tune-up this weekend — March 9 or 10 — you’ll receive 10 bucks off!

We have several different tune-up levels, and we promise to be super-honest about which one would be of the most value for you.

Most people will just need our Standard Tune-Up, which is typically $75. We adjust brakes, gears, and derailleur; perform a minor (on-bike) wheel true; lube and assess chain; check and tighten crank and headset; and wipe down the frame and wheels.

If your bike is single-speed, the cost is $50; for trikes and tandems, $100.

We also offer a Tune-Up Plus (typically $145) which adds in a full (off-bike) wheel true; cleaning of the bottom bracket and both derailleurs; new cables, housing, and brake pads.

Finally, a Total Overhaul is a Tune-Up Plus as well as a bearing overhaul — usually it’s $175.

We’re open Saturday and Sunday 11AM-4PM — so bring your bike in to get it all ready for Spring and save a Hamilton while you’re at it!

2024 Season Is Here! News & Specials

Hi, everyone! Hope your “Winter” went well…

We’ll be opening our doors for Season #17 (we can’t believe it either) on Saturday, March 2. For the first couple of weeks, our schedule will be: Saturdays and Sundays March 2, 3, 9, & 10 11AM to 4PM.

At that point, we’ll look at weather and staffing to set up a schedule for the remainder of March. As always, stay tuned to our website and social media for all the latest.

Now’s a really good time to drop off your bike for its Spring Tune-Up. 75 bucks gets your baby’s brakes, gears, and derailleur adjusted; a minor (on-bike) wheel true; lube; the headset and crank checked and tightened; and a wipe down.

Early season turn-around is quick. Plus, if you drop your bike off for a tune-up during our first two weeks of operation, you’ll get $10 off!

If you’d rather us pick up and deliver your bike to save you a trip, we can do that! The price for this service starts at $20 round-trip (for Greater Downtown) and will begin for the season on March 11. If you email us to schedule on or before March 10, we’ll knock 10 bucks off the delivery fee.

March is the month we will begin to craft our Tours schedule and we’ll publish them as dates get locked in. We expect to return all of our favorites and maybe even debut one or two new offerings. In the meantime, you can book a private tour or group rental while our calendar is still wide open! Early Birds! Weekday (M-Th) private tours booked for April or May will receive $50 off the base price for one to six riders.

Booking inquiries should be made to Linda at bookings@wheelhousedetroit.com.

Can’t wait to see you at the shop! Lots more news to come as we get the season rolling. - Kelli
