GBTried hard, but missed the point I was connected to Ben's through an ebay link and Ben's procured from Surly a cyclocross fork. Through an email exchange, I was told that Ben's would get the fork on a Monday and it would be shipped same day and would arrive via two-day delivery on a Wed. Ben's didn't get the fork on time and it didn't get me the fork within 2 days after it was received. Ben's credited me the shipping. The far bigger problem was that the fork shown on ebay indicated it had a 1" steerer tube and the fork I received has 1-1/8" tube. Customer service after I raised that point was poor and I have never been able to figure out what went wrong.

GBGreat inventory, great service Sourcing parts for classic bikes (in my case, a 1972 Peugeot PX-10) is difficult unless you find the right sources, and Ben's is now one of them. I needed an inexpensive but good-qualityFrench headset and two handlebar clamping bolt sets for Nitto (1-inch quill) stems. Ben's had both a Velo Orange French headset and the Nitto bolt-washer-nut sets at the best prices--PLUS free shipping. Everything was shipped and arrived quickly. Now all I need to do is build the bike up for Eroica California inApril 2016... ;-)

GBExcellent products and service! I found their website and looked exactly like what I was looking for. Someone to build me some custom wheels for my bike with my being able to choose the components. Their service was excellent, fast and well executed. I plan on ordering from them again, and high recommend them to anyone looking for quality bike parts!

GBA great online bike resource! I love Ben's Cycle! I live in Chicago so shipping is crazy fast. When I need something quick I like to use them. Returns have always been quick and easy as well, which can be a major pain from other suppliers. I like that they provide thorough order tracking and documentation too, which has been helpful as a reference for insurance, future parts ordering, etc. Their selection of parts runs a good range from top end to more budget friendly to please most customers. I know other sites that stock only cutting edge, high priced gear so it's nice to have affordable options without feeling like I'm buying junk. Even their lower end parts still feel like good quality. I've built a couple of bikes up from parts from Ben's so far and plan on using them on future projects.

GBGreat service from Ben's Cycle Searched high and low for black dia compe guidonnet brake levers. Ben's was put of stock when I first looked so I opted in to notify me when stock was available. To my pleasant surprise, Ben's actually notified me when they re-stocked. I immediately purchased them, Ben's notified me every step of the way. Great service, I'm a fan.
