    Good/best mechanic in metro detroit?

    Hi, my brother in law just moved to SE michigan and is looking for a good wrench. He's been to a couple places so far to work on his bike but according to him, their work hasn't been up to snuff. Can anyone suggest a good mechanic in the area?

    He "just" moved here and already has had to go to a "couple" of shops for work? What type of bike, what type of work, and what part of SE Michigan is he in (it's a big area unless he wants to drive 50 miles to get a bike worked on!)? Some shops are road specialists, others MTB, triathlon, etc.

    I know a lot of shops, but generally can't vouch by personal experience since I almost never need work done that I can't do myself. Wheel truing is the only thing I've had done at a shop in recent memory.

    Years of bad experience here with around 20 shops... The ONLY shop that I can recommend (Everything is absolutely perfect with fantastic VIP like treatment)
    is Kinetic Bicycles Systems Bicycles shop in Clarkston, MI
    #1, "old school" bicycle sales and repair shop! THEY ARE PERFECT IN EVERY WAY!
