Default Unique Cycle

I'm looking for a good "indy" in the northern NJ area to work on our bikes. I'm a little fanatical about doing things right and neat. Can anyone enlighten me on Unique Cycle up in West Milford? Or any other suggestions up in the northern part of the state. Thanks!

When I lived down that way I used Pee-Wee Cycles in Riverdale.

Kurt @ Pee Wee is a good guy. A bit on the pricey side but does a good job. His number is 973-839-3384.

Now i'm personally good friends with Eddie who owns Unique who is also my home Indy.

It all depends on what you need done and the time frame.

Eddie is just that, Unique. His shop is small but if he doesn't have it in stock he can certainly get it overnight.

His number is 973-728-0006.

Give me a PM to exchange numbers, i'd like to see what you need done.

Ed does great work and I haven't heard anyone say anything bad about him around town. Sussex Hills up in Wantage does good work also.

I would advise against blacksmith. My bf's family took their bikes there to get their big sucker kits installed. Later on to only find out he put back stock plastic parts on instead of the chrome (backing plates). I've heard other stories from others about his not so honest practice.
