Blue Line Bike Labs

My favorite shop in Houston, hands down. Honest service without the usual attitude, and they're on the bike path. What more could you want? more

i stopped in at blueline after visiting another little heights gem (carve skateshop) and made my second awesome discovery of the day. what a great shop! tons of cool stuff to look at, some great bikes, and everybody was really nice and helpful despite the fact that they were obviously slammed. all in all i really liked blueline and will stop in any time i'm in the area. Pros: cool stuff, nice employees, fun vibe Cons: a little understaffed more

I love this place. its a really good bike shop. I go there just to say while I'm riding on the trail! Pros: real bike shop more

When I think of what a bike shop is supposed to be like, this is the place that pops into my head. Pros: excellent service, neat products, great location Cons: not a Specialized dealer more

This place is perfect for the Houston Heights. The guys who work there are really nice every time I go in. Even when I just had a silly question about my new bike, they were willing to stop and tell me what I needed to know. They seem highly skilled and are always very informative. I go in sometimes just because I'm riding by and they always let me bring in my dogs in the shop!! They sometimes even give them water and treats. I love this neighborhood shop. Thumbs up! (hey guys, start up the week night rides again!) Pros: good service- nice people- pet friendly more

These guys are great!!! Pros: Great service. Great help. Knowledgable staff. Cool looking shop. NO polo shirts!!! Cons: None that I noticed!! more

I am broke and looking to buy a new bike. I have shopped about eight other,bike shops, repeatedly. One guy ,on two separate ocassions pointed me custom made $3500 bike after I told about my <$1500 budget!When I got to BLBL I noticed the place is different. You have to notice the place is different. The guy I spoke with seemed to care about not just selling me a bike, but about bikes in general. He asked questions and LISTENED to my responses. He took my feedback and made some valuable suggestions. I got a free education about steel frames and the differences between road vs. touring frames. It just feels like these guys like what they do. I haven't bought yet, but once I save up the cash, I'll be back. Blue Line Bike Labs, good guys, Good bikes. more

I am a first time MS-150 rider and I needed a road bike. I went a couple of other stores the same week to look and ask around about what I needed. Not knowing much about road bikes (I only have a mountain bike that my brother gave me), I needed some information on how to pick the right one for me. At one of the other stores I went to I felt particularly embarrassed and put off by one of the employees. He kept asking me technical questions about bikes, even after I had told them that I knew nothing about road bikes. I left the store feeling confused. After visiting a few other stores I went to Blue Line Bicycle Laboratory only because I saw their add in the Houston Press. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and asked what I was looking for. The guy there helped me understand the difference between road bikes and other kinds of bikes. After I picked out my bike I left feeling like I had made the right decision about my bike. And I did because I love it! I also feel a lot more knowledgeable about bikes in general. Oh and they also gave me a free tune up with my new bike! Thanks! Pros: laied back place, nice employees more
