New England's Rivendell and Co-Motion dealer
a relaxed, attitude-free bike shop serving all of new england.
maine bike works is a small by choice, owner run shop whose aim is to become new england's nerdiest touring, bikepacking and adventuring destination while continuing to offer the custom builds and fair repair services our reputation was built on.
to help you find your next n+1, we draw on bikes from our buddies at Rivendell Bicycle Works, Co-Motion Cycles, Salsa Cycles, Kona Bikes, Surly, Crust, Velo Orange, Lauf, Soma, Rodeo Adventure Labs and 47 other brands.
we also offer collaborative builds from the frame up, teach repair classes and offer bench/tool hire to those wanting to become one with their own bikes.
conveniently located in saco, maine on u.s. route 1 (885 portland road) across from Frank Galos Chevrolet on the auto mile. minutes from i-95, downtown saco, old orchard beach, scarborough and portland. only 45 mins north of portsmouth, nh and 90 mins north of boston, ma.
if you need a repair done fast & for a fair price, there's no better place to bring your bike. :)
got a bike you want gone?
your choice: we'll fix your bike or you can work on it yourself.
say what? why in the name of alpe d'huez would a bike shop encourage its customers to use its tools?
simple, really. we know how much fun it can be to build and fix our own bikes and soon you will too!
one of the main reasons we started maine bike works was because we personally wanted a well stocked, professionally equipped place to work on our own bikes and after years of wrenching in shops which had "no-customers-in-the-workshop" policies, we decided it was time someone gave our fellow riders a break and let them in on the fun. offering this type of access is expensive, so expect to pay something to play in the shop.
when you work on your own bike at maine bike works you'll enjoy having the right tools, equipment, and replacement parts on hand. sure sounds better than working on your bike again on your kitchen floor doesn't it?
in those instances where you lack the time or inclination to work on your own bike, we'll happily do it for you.

it's a big world - ride it.
we sell bikes for cyclist looking to answer the call of the eastern trail or adventures further afield.
when it comes to selling bikes, MBW does things a smidge differently than the regional chains.
instead of stocking dozens or hundreds of models, we do the exact opposite and only carry a few carefully curated favorites for your sizing and test riding purposes. once we help you decide on the perfect model, size and color, we'll order it up. when it arrives we'll build it or you can get hands-on and build it with us (if your bike qualifies) - no extra charge for getting your hands greasy. pretty cool, huh?

we're in a sweet spot and we're not talking about location. we're talking about the type of sweet spot where we have a blast at what we do for a living while also having enough time and energy for our own bike adventures when the shop is closed. our admittedly funky shop hours allow us to provide unusual one-on-one personalized attention compared to the more traditional approaches you'll experience from the regional chains. if you're able to wait until we're next open, be assured that the time we spend with you in the shop will be fun, fair and productive. till then!

click the map above or type 885 portland road, saco (better known as u.s. route 1) into your GPS.
10 mins south of the fair city of portland. 45 mins north of portsmouth, nh (yes, darn it, maine has a 5.5% sales tax on products, but we hope our winning personalities and maine's 0% tax on labor/services make up for the fact that physicall stuff is cheaper in the granite state). 90 mins north of the big smoke known as boston, ma.
located immediately across the street from Frank Galos Chevrolet and its giant American flag, the shop is 1/4 mile south of the cascade road and 1 1/4 miles south of the scarborough line.
look for the big pink and black bicycle road sign in the sky and the matching 'bicycle repair' sign on our building.
there is plenty of free and easy parking just steps from our door. if you need assistance loading or unload your bike from your car, just say the word and we'll be happy to lend a hand!
