Velofix -- anyone use the service?

In the current lockdown climate, I’m considering hiring a mobile Velofix van to do the usual Spring tune-up etc. Torn, because in normal times I would just take it the shop where I bought the bike; they are open w/ distancing protocols, but it’s a travel.

Has anyone used Velofix? Reviews?

Thanks.

Like many things like this, I suspect that it is highly dependent on the franchisee personally. I haven’t had first hand experience but the local guy here gets consistently great reviews

In Ottawa,ON the 2 (3?) Velofix guys are great.
Well regarded with solid service and predictable scheduling.

We had them as a sponsor for a season, the one guy was incredible. He was a magician at sorting out wheels and getting a drivetrain running buttery smooth. Used one in LA…not so much.

As others have said, with their model, it probably depends on the franchisee.

I haven’t used their service directly, but an event I was at used them as a mechanic and they were great.

Im in Vancouver, used it once last year and will be using it again this year. My mechanic was Alex and he did a great job. Probably pretty dependent on where you are though.
