Brought my 2014 Trek Domane 4.3 to Mark for an overhaul a few weeks ago - I needed a new rear wheel and a derailleur hanger replaced, among some other things. More than just a quick tune-up, let's put it that way! Mark was super about communicating, letting me know what he'd found, and making recommendations for parts that were in line with what my expectations were - both in terms of performance and cost.I had my bike back about a week after I dropped it off. I've put about 100 miles on it since getting it back four days ago and I can honestly say that in the four years I've owned it, this bike has never felt better or rode more nicely than it does now.And (at least for me!), he's just across the street to boot. If you're downtown (or even if you're not) and you value great work at a fair price in your bike shop, give Smallest Cog a look. I think you'll be super happy with the results. I know I am!

I was randomly biking through downtown St. Paul when I noticed the shop. My kickstand had come loose and I was without a portable tool. I stopped by and Mark was immediately friendly and welcoming. He tightened my kickstand and we started chatting. He really knows his stuff and is extremely friendly. I always go out of my way to support local business and will definitely be back for all bike repairs and parts orders. He also stocks some good bikes. Check out the shop and keep your money local! It's good for STP and good for your karma

Super nice bike guy in newly established shop. I just happened by it and knowing I needed a tune up and actually because I wanted it fairly quickly (look at this weather!) I brought my bike in. Turns out my hunch was right. Got the bike back quickly with great explanations as to what was done, and what was needed. Priced fairly. Friendly. Knows what he is doing. (Sweet, shy, shop-dog a plus!) Check it out.
