Spoke 'n Things - Arkansas City, Kansas

Spoke 'n Things is a wonderful, funky little bike shop. A real gem for a place like Ark City. Spoke 'n Things easily rivals bike shops I have frequented in Lawrence, Leavenworth, and Fayetteville.

They have a very wide selection of bikes and trikes for both youth and adults. They have accessories and gear including helmets, clothing, bike shoes that clip onto your pedals, and foods and drinks. They carry all sorts of tires and inner tubes. Additionally, they have a workshop in the back where they can perform repairs or customizations.

Spoke 'n Things has an entire skate shop section where you can build a skateboard and they have some skat shoes. Also some curios like recumbent trike and some sort of bmx looking trike for stunts or something.

I talked with Allen about building a custom bike for my wife, and he assured me that they have used frames that I would want, also have many of the other pieces I would need, and can order the rest if necessary.

The workshop guy was friendly, and Allen in the front was also very personable. I got 2 inner tubes for my fixie, they seemed a little pricey at about $10 each, but I will definitely be coming back.

Called the shop today to have a few bike size questions answered and was a great experience. Very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Thank you staff and highly recommend!

The small town bicycle repair shop used to be a fixture, but is increasingly a rarity. This place has been in business over 20 years and offers a wealth of expertise and repair services that is hard to find in such settings anymore. we had an inexpensive bike from a big box store that needed attention. He took care of all our concerns and noticed a few extra things to tweak, for an affordable price and with a quick turnaround time. The shop opens at noon, but the owner is usually available in the mornings. Really pleased with the service and will definitely come here next time we need it.

Great service and very helpful! Helped adjust bikes to fit my wife and daughter even though we didn't purchase the bikes from them. We got one of the bikes repaired there, though. Very knowledgeable, very friendly! Will definitely return!

The man who’s been managing the store for years sold me a bike a few years ago. Excellent bike. I went in today to pick up just a plain-Jane wheel for a project, and he just gave it to me. (Granted, it was an old-unusable). Sorry for not catching your name, fairly young guy. I just wanted to say thanks.

Double Eagle Pawn uses Spoke 'N Things exclusively for all of our bike repairs and service. Always excellent service and very timely. I highly recommend them. Be sure to give them a try.

Spoke and things is a staple of ark city. Great people to do business with. If they don’t have it in stock they can order it in for you. Reasonable pricing, friendly staff, and locally owned and operated, what more is there to want?
