Tim and the Family at the affordablebikerepair shop

Tim & his dad Jim. Jim is my right-hand man and the greatest dad ever! And Jacob his son is going to be a NASA Scientist when he grows up, but just in case, he's learning to get his hands dirty :).



 

Hi, Tim Lutz here.

I started working on bikes as a kid, earned years of hands-on experience, and finally got a gig working as a mechanic at a local bike shop in junior high. Yes, I've been in this business that long. 40 years! WOW.

After years of managing Valley Bike and Sport a local bike shop near Appleton, I decided to start my own shop in Little Chute. After 3 years, and a business partnership that went south (I sold my business due to circumstances beyond my control), I decided to jump ship from my beloved shop and, again, start working on bikes solo... in addition to securing a position as a full time career firefighter with the Appleton Fire Department (over 20 years now).

We provide personalized, one-on-one bicycle repairs 24/7 (please keep it between 8 AM - 8 PM for safety reasons) 24 hour turnaround time for customers near the Appleton and surrounding suburban areas. on the south side of Appleton. This newly built shop was constructed from the ground up thanks to all the help of my family and friends. Construction started October 2015, and after decades of trial and error of what makes the ultimate bike service area awesome, it's finally a reality, and a dream come true! Well almost, still wish it could have been 5 times bigger, but cozy is good, right?


We fix everything

  • From Cheaper Department store bikes
  • To $10,000 electronic shifting carbon fiber dream machines
  • Wheelchairs
  • Scooters
  • Treadmills
  • Spin bikes - Home and Institutional
  • Custom builds
  • and just about anything else!
  • Estimates are free, and if we can't fix what you bring in there won't be a charge.

We also customize special needs bikes for people who need a little assistance. My Dad was an occupational therapist and we can design a bike especially for you at a very affordable price.

As time permits (working around family needs) I can come to you, repair and replace what is necessary, and be gone in a flash. No waiting a month for your local high school kid (with an unknown level of experience) at the bike shop to experiment with your bike. No need to dirty up your car to haul it to the repair shop. We have mobile repair if needed - or better yet drop off the bike at my shop 24/7 (Law permits that I only except business between 8am-8pm for safety reasons). Save even more money when you drop it off. Repairs are usually done within 24 hours.
