Company Description
CrimsonBikes has it's roots in the crazy dream of two Harvard students. In 2008, Charles James with the help of his friend Dan Lorenzana began fixing and selling bikes out of their dorm room. One day, Charles got the idea to build a fleet of bikes and rent them out to students who needed them. They created the CrimsonBikes "Bike Share" and within 18 months, CrimsonBikes had become one of the largest campus bike shares in the US!
Review & Rating
Brought my bike in for a spring tuneup. Super nice, knowledgeable staff. Had it back on time and reasonably priced. I’d definitely go back and highly recommend.
Great service and advice in a friendly space.
Crimson is on the more expensive side for a bike shop. They're quote was twice that of another bike shop I later went to in Cambridge. They also said they would have to keep my bike for two weeks before they could fix it and they no longer do the "loaner bike" rental that they mention on their website. The shop seems understaffed although the people who work there seem nice.
The staff is very nice and fast
Very nice and friendly. Charles took me for a tour and explained the details of all the bikes although he knew I wasn't going to buy a bike and was just trying to get an idea. Super helpful. thank you for your time. I will be coming soon to buy 2 sets of tires from them. They have great product range which includes luxurious and high end carbon fiber bikes. Highly recommended.
My cassette happended to jump off my wheel (!) 600ft from this store. To my luck, the store was open and the customer service was EXCELLENT! Wheel fixed for a good price in a matter of minutes. Recommend!
I got to test ride an electric bike when I came here. Staff was very helpful finding information on the bike, while not being to pushy trying to make a sale. Would recommend this place to any bike lover in the area.
great shop.. great people... bought four bikes... will keep on going.. :) thanks Charles...
Very very friendly. Worth a stop if you're new to the Boston area, or if you live in Boston. Positive attitudes and nice decor inside! They have some last minute sales going on, might want to slide by there soon if your a Giant kinda person!
Great selection of bikes and accessories and really warm and friendly staff. They build bikes for you and if you buy from them, you get free basic tuneups.
Great customer service. I was able to exchange a bike for another one I liked better. Great people as well
