I have always found bike shop employees to be very engaging and enthusiastic towards the customers. In essence, I've always been made to feel like the bike shop wants me to be their customer.
Until now.
Visited the bike shop in Brownwood. They could barely be bothered to show interest and seemed to be put out by the service I needed. No engagement or attempt at connection.
Biking is a community. The shop is a huge part of that. What I experienced was the opposite of community.
Questions. Is that consistent with others experience with this shop or is my experience not the norm? Any recommendations of a shop or person that performs first rate repair and maintenance?
Thanks

Might have been an “off day” for whomever you spoke with. I’ve been there twice and have always had good service.
