Recommendations for bike maintenance in Arlington?

[myoglobinologist]

I’ve moved to the area in September and have been commuting into Arlington from FC along Custis. I’m riding a Trek hybrid commuter bike, nothing super fancy.

I was looking for recommendations for a tune-up, cleaning, etc. I feel sort of overwhelmed by the number of bike stores in the area, given the amount of high-end bikes that I see when I walk into them.

Are there recommendations for a straightforward bike maintenance job? Thanks.

I’d recommend finding a shop nearby where you live or work. That would make things easiest for when you have to drop your bike off or pick it up.
