REPAIRS & Services
Our service department is the heart of SBC. The service team can handle anything from basic flat repairs to full overhauls. We also service not only the bikes we sell but most any brand bicycle regardless of where it was purchased. Everyone wants to know the cost of a repair before the work is done, so we provide free estimates that can usually be done while you wait, no appointment necessary.
We know that everyone has different needs and therefore we have two approaches to bicycle service: Service Packages and A la Carte, where we work with you to decide what this best way forward to get your bike riding to meet your needs. Our service department is equipped with the knowledge and tooling to provide in depth suspension work, any hydraulic brake repair and electric bike repairs. Our service department has over 100 years of combined experience and is here to serve you and your bike!
MAKE AN APPOINTMENT:
BASIC SERVICE PACKAGES
We offer packages that will cover the bases for most recreational and utility bike needs. Service package A is the most basic option and covers adjustments and lubrication of all bike systems. Service Package B goes a few layers deeper to ensure like-new performance of those systems.

BIKE FIT SERVICES
Why get a bike fit?
Among other reasons, a bike properly fit to the rider can increase comfort, help avoid injuries, assist in injury recovery and improve performance. Every bike purchase at Shenandoah Bicycle Company includes a basic bicycle fitting free-of-charge. We will select the right size bike for you, watch you ride the bike, and make any needed adjustments within the workable range of the frame size. These adjustment can include seat height and fore/aft adjustment, handlebar height, and fine-tuning all controls on the handlebar. No matter what bike you take home, we’ll make sure you are comfortable and ready to tackle the rides ahead.
Professional bike fitting
No two bodies are alike, making a proper bicycle fitting a highly-detailed process. SBC has a Level 3 Trek-Certified Fit Specialist in-house who can handle everything from minor tweaks for comfort and performance, to competition-focused strength and flexibility testing to get the best fit possible. We have successfully helped over a thousand people with fit issues, from daily commuters to world-class athletes and are happy to help you. Our professional fit rate is $70/hour

CUSTOM BIKE BUILDS
We would love to build a custom bike for you!
We certainly build stock bikes but are excited to offer customized bike builds. “Custom” doesn’t necessarily mean expensive. Bring us a frame, some parts, or just an idea, and we will build exactly what you want. From inexpensive commuters to high-end race machines, we’ll sit down with you and work out every detail. You will ride out of here with a bicycle that fits your body, your riding style, your personality, and your budget.
What is a custom bike build?
A customized bicycle is built from the frame up. It doesn’t come from a box pre-packaged with stock components and it’s not built around the ‘average’ person’s body or preferences.
We work closely with you to choose the frame, the components, and the accessories to produce a bicycle that meets your specific needs. With all custom builds there is a labor charge, all frames and forks are sold at MSRP, and components are discounted if all parts are purchased through our shop.
Interested in building a custom bike? Call or email us today.
PROJECT ONE - BUILD YOUR CUSTOM TREK
Design your dream ride, then bring it to life in the Project One workshop.
We gather on the roads and trails. We ride, we race, we train. And we do these things not as nameless cyclists, but as individuals. We are one in our shared passion, but we are also each unique. Project One honors this fact.
Design every detail of your dream ride, then let Trek bring your vision to life. Trek will create your bike the way we create every Project One: with the skill that only the most-experienced builders and artists can offer.
When you ride your Project One, you’ll be riding something created by hand by a person who wanted to astonish you, who cared deeply about your vision, and who was the only one on Earth who loved your bike before you did.
