At Standard Bike Repair, we have been fixing bikes in Boulder since 2010. What started in a small cottage has grown into a one-of-a-kind repair shop built on a simple idea: Watch. Help. Learn.
Whether you want to drop off your bike for a quick fix or roll up your sleeves and learn alongside the mechanic, Standard Bike Repair is here to keep you rolling.
How It Works
Watch/Help/Learn
- Join Ryan at the repair stand.
- Watch, help, or get hands-on with your tune-up.
- Learn enough to feel more confident with your bike.
Appointments are best: call/text/email Ryan at 720-837-8984 or ryan@standardbikerepair.com.
Drop-Off Repairs
Not everyone wants to participate in their bike’s tune-up. For those who are busy, you are more than welcome to drop the bike off at your convenience. Standard Bike Repair being within the walls of Boulder Sports Recycler means that even if Ryan is not in, you can drop it off any time we are open, which is every day from 10am to 7pm. The BSR staff will check you in and Ryan will reach out to you generally within a day. Turnaround time is generally one week from the day that you bring it in. Some jobs can be taken care of sooner..
Our Story
For 15 years, Standard Bike Repair operated out of a cottage home in Boulder. Ryan started with almost zero repair knowledge, but quickly learned the simplicity and joy of single speed bikes. From there, he built a shop where riders could be part of the process instead of waiting in the dark.
That’s why the heart of SBR is Watch/Help/Learn. You don’t need to be “mechanically minded” — you just need curiosity. Most people watch, some help, everyone learns..
Services & Pricing
- Watch/Help/Learn: $90/hour — faster, focused, and hands-on.
- A la Carte Repairs: Pricing is similar to other Boulder shops. Call/text/email for a quote.
- When you participate, repairs often cost less because we only do what’s truly needed.
