The Bike Works

Our Story

IN 1987 The Bike Works began as a side project of Doug Mosher, he loved fixing bicycles of his friends and fellow Adirondack Velo Club. In time the side project started to take precedent over his full-time job, thus The Bike Works was started. Since the Bike works has begun we have been in 3 location all in the great city of Johnstown, finally settling in our current location at 50 Chestnut street. In 2005 the shop changed ownership to Neil Auly, who had been the shop mechanic for the previous 7 years. Neil keep the same spirit of The Bike Works and commitment to the community.

We continue to provide a service to out community with the sale and service of bicycles as well as offering general cycling and bicycle racing advice. We would like to say thank you to the community for all the support and as always Happy Trails!

Custom Wheel Builds

Weight:
Yes every shop can order $2000+carbon wheels ect, however we have found with the correct components we’re able to custom build wheelsets within a few hundred grams of the pro wheelsets at a fraction of the cost
Stronger Wheels:
A hand built set of wheels are built stronger than stock wheels that came on your bike (Road, Mountain, 27+, Fat Bike wheels).
Hub set/Bearings:
When building a custom set of wheels hubs and bearings allow wheels to reduce significant weight as well as reducing rolling resistance -Ceramic Bearings- super low friction resistance decreasing power loss, increasing rolling distance Topics to discuss with us when considering a new set of wheels:
1. Intended Uses
2. Hubs
3. Spokes
4. Rims
5. Bearings

Hydraulic Brake Bleeding

On many of today’s bicycles have hydraulic brake systems. We have all styles/adapters to bleed your brake system. Brake hose, rotors and most brake pads are kept in stock to improve the feel of your hydraulic braking system.

Tubless Tire Service

Mountain or Road your tires can be made tubeless or they are already tubeless. Making your bike tubeless increases traction, feel, and puncture resistance of your tires. Thus preventing you from having as many flats. We able to convert or reseal your tires to tubeless.

Recumbent Bike Service

Recumbents can require unique parts or custom made parts. We’re able to fabricate and repair your recumbent and get you back down the road.

Often we hang on to our old bikes. Consider over the course of 5 years how much technology changes with our phones. Bikes have made those same technological improvements from electric wireless shifting to development of new manufacturing techniques a new bike is an improvement from your older bike. We have over 40 years combined experience helping people choose a bike that works for their needs from Triathlon, Road/Mountain Racing, Weekend bike path riding with friends and family we have bikes for all needs and all types of riders.

Riding Issues (Health/Body)

Often we ride or dont ride as a result:
1. Hand numbness
2. Saddle Discomfort
3. Neck Pain
4. Recovery/Training
Talk with us about your concerns, and bring your bike we can make adjustments to help mitigate those issues and make your riding more enjoyable

Bike Tune Ups Yearly or for a race:

Depending on mileage your bike needs at least one yearly tune up. Over time, drivetrain wears out, cable housings lose rigidity increasing friction thus affecting shifting, Wheels hit cracks, potholes, curbs and need to be trued, Bearings need adjusting, Brakes need cleaning ect. A tune up will bring your bike back to new condition and keep you pedaling without worrying about a mechanical failure. Often the Tune-Up is preventative maintenance increasing the lifespan of your investment in your bike
