β β β β β Ondanks de corona lockdown, de gesloten grenzen, de afstand (Brussel, 100km) heb ik fijne ervaringen met Rob van Bikeboutique gehad. Eerst heeft hij me geleid in de aankoop van een Blackburn kettingblad en de nodige tools om de crancks van de trapas te verwijderen. Nadien, toen bleek dat de trapas lagers uitgesleten waren heeft hij mijn excentrische trapas (Rohloff versnellingsnaaf) vernieuwd. Rob is een vakman. Hij kent fietsen. Hij is bezorgd en zoekt naar de beste oplossing voor je probleem. Het is iemand die je kan vertrouwen, ook al loopt de communicatie enkel via mail en courrierdiensten. Mijn fiets is nu beter dan toen ik hem tweedehands kocht (Singular Swift Rohloff). Wat een geruststelling wanneer iemand voor jou naar de beste oplossing zoekt, alsof het zijn eigen fiets is. Is dat niet waar we, verwoede fietsers van dromen?
Despite the corona lockdown, the closed borders, the distance (Brussels, 100km), I had pleasant experiences with Rob from Bikeboutique. First he guided me in the purchase of a Blackburn chainring and the necessary tools to remove the crancks from the bottom bracket. Afterwards, when it turned out that the bottom bracket bearings were worn out, he renewed my eccentric bottom bracket (Rohloff gear hub). Rob is a professional. He knows bicycles. He is concerned and looks for the best solution to your problem. It is someone you can trust, even if the communication only runs via mail and courrierdervices. My bike is now better than when I bought it second hand (Singular Swift Rohloff). What reassurance when someone searches for the best solution for you, as if it were their own bicycle. Isn't that what we, avid cyclists dream of?

Daarbij heeft hij ook nog veel verstand van zijn vak en werkt hij voor een schappelijke prijs

He also has a lot of knowledge of his profession and he works for a reasonable price

β β β β β Topzaak! Na een tijdje op zoek te zijn naar een nieuwe wielrenfiets van het merk Orbea, kwam ik bij Rob terecht. Even gemaild of hij de fiets had staan om te komen kijken. Rob neemt echt de tijd om je het beste advies te geven. Daarnaast wil hij je ook echt leren kennen als "rijder" om zo een nog beter maatwerk/informatie te krijgen voor je gewenste fiets.
Ik ben zeer tevreden met de geleverde service, en uiteraard ook met mijn nieuwe Orbea racefiets! Aangeraden werd om na zo'n 10 uurtjes totaal op de fiets even langs te komen, om zo details mbt positie op de fiets, en het algehele gevoel nog eens samen te bespreken. Ga ik dus ook zeker doen.
Al met al topservice, topzaak!
Tot snel!
Top business! After looking for a new road bike of the Orbea brand for a while, I came across Rob. Just emailed if he had parked the bike to come and see. Rob really takes the time to give you the best advice. In addition, he really wants to get to know you as a "rider" in order to get even better customization / information for your desired bicycle.
I am very satisfied with the service provided, and of course also with my new Orbea road bike! It was recommended to come by after a total of 10 hours on the bike, to discuss details about the position on the bike and the overall feeling together. So I will definitely do that.
All in all top service, top business!
See you soon!

β β β β β One of the best and possibly thΓ© best bike mechanic in the entire region for your high-end mountainbike. Knowledgeable, professional and personal. You do pay a little extra for that though. They sell mainly super high-end bikes and parts but stock good cheaper value for money ones too. Shop is even worth a visit for all the special bikes and parts on display. Always enjoy visiting. Highly recommended.

β β β β β Fantastic shop with great service. Any shop that stocks a lot of Hope components is a shop worth visiting! I tested a Ritchey Ultra which is a steel hardtail with 73mm wide 650b tires. With all that traction and a responsive steel frame it was a great climber. It also felt light and responsive - much more than I expected. We covered about 35km on the ride. My normal ride is a Cannondale Scalpel Carbon 29er so that was my comparator. Rob we great with bike setup and very helpful. This is a highly recommended shop.

β β β β β Rob was so kind to give me a Ritchey Ultra to test around my home trails. It was a pleasant surprise, although some people warned me for this.
Just from the looks you can easily tell this is a high quality frame. The welds are beautiful, as well as the paint-job and graphics. It has a very classic look to it, although this hardtail has some modern frame characteristics. I like the simplicity, but I can also imagine that some people might find it too understated. The key highlight of the bike is the overall weight. It feels extremely light which is interesting considering this is a steel frame. While riding some gnarly trails, the steel frame remains very quiet and it has a sturdy feel to it. Difficult to describe but great to experience.
The trails which I rode can be described as a combination of X-country and the more technical singletracks with some significant steep elevation. I rode it with the 27.5 X 2.8 tires and with a 120mm Reba. From the first moment that you sit on the bike and start pedalling you feel at home. I am sure that the 2.8 tires give you some comfort a well, but the steel frame does not feel that hard and has a forgiving factor to it. One day I rode the bike for 4 hours and my body did not feel sour at all. It is hard to stop pedalling, there are not a lot of other hardtails who give you that same experience and comfort.
The key highlight for me is the bikeβs climbing capability. The geometry can be considered to be aggressive, but not to the extreme. I like how the bike reacts when the front wheel tries to come loose during steep technical root sections, it is very easy to move your body to the front and keep the wheel down. The bike is very reactive. For the descends, the bike gives you a lof of confidence. Of course it will be hard to compete with the fullies of the modern age, but I am sure that you will be able to keep up. And when it gets too rough, you brake and pick your lines. The bike gives you a well balanced feel.
It is hard to say something which is less good about the bike. I was not a huge fan of the dropper post that came with it, but I guess this is just personal taste. It has a hefty price tag for a steel frame but from my point of view the build and ride quality can justify this. Also, it is refreshing to see a different bike on the parking lot when you ride with your buddies.
Thanks Rob for the opportunity and great service! Keep up the good work.
