Yelp.com Review - by Jared L.

5.0 of 5 stars. The tire guy rules. I'm in and out in 15 minutes, tire mounted. Paying for it may have taken a little too long, but it was after 5 and the desk guy was having a smoke. I understand. I'm happy…

2.0 of 5 stars. I thought this place was Sub-par. I have come here twice for simple fixes: a bent fork and a new front tire. Each time I have waited over two weeks while they tell me they are waiting for the part.…

Yelp.com Review - by Joanne D.

5.0 of 5 stars. I'm going to give Sub 5 stars, because we've been there 4 times to have a total of 8 tires replaced by them over the least 5 years. We've never had a problem, and they've always been so nice, speedy…

5.0 of 5 stars. I won't take my bike to any other moto shop in the city. I've had both good and bad experiences other places, and no one beats Subterranean. In fact, I have been so impressed with their high level…
