Bike zone on Dundas. These guys are awesome with fair pricing and will do only the work you need/want done. I’ve gone to other places that have wanted to do a full $90 tune up when I only wanted my derailer adjusted, brought it to these guys and I was in and out in 10 minutes and they didn’t even charge me and this was only one of the times I’ve dealt with these guys. I’ve also bought 2 bikes from them over the last 5 years and again always great service ✌️

Cycle Path is great for quick repairs and tune ups but because they're smaller than Bike Zone, the tune up might take a few weeks. I dunno, from personal experience, bike zone has let me down. Sure they're fast, but the work is rushed. Cycle Path knows their shit. I just bought a new bike and the bottom bracket bearing was making awful noises. Took it to bike zone, they made adjustments and the noise was gone. But after one hour of riding it, it came back again. Same exact noise. Brand new bike. I repeat, brand new bike. The guys at cycle Path told me this shouldn't be happening on a brand new bike.

Skiis and biikes have appt. Available. I would wait to fix your shocks. Most shops send out forks for service and it will take a while to get them back as there is a part shortage. If you have any questions I could maybe help.
other than Berts or Gears (I have nothing against them, just figure they will be super busy right now), is there anywhere else (local) where I can get a bike tuned up? ...

Who knows of a good bike shop
I use bicycle depot up on labion road but they don't treat me how they use to
Anybody got any good reliable shops to direct me to?

Bicycle depot is not a shop for mountain bikers. I bought my first mountain bike there, and as I progress, and wanted things upgrades done or advise, they were falling flat on their faces. That was my experience with them anyways. So far I have had better luck with Cycle Solutions.
Aside from Gears, can anyone recommend a decent local bike shop for a tune-up. My bike has been hanging in the garage for...oh, let's just say more than a couple of...
