Our Mission
When we started
Lakeshore Bike
in 2003 Demian and I were
determined to provide quick, outstanding bicycle service at fair prices. We felt
that this was something that was missing from the Chicago cycling community.
Because we are both dedicated cyclists with over 45 years combined experience
working on and riding bicycles, we understood how difficult it is to get great
service at a fair price here in Chicago. We believe bicycling should be a fun
and affordable hobby for all cyclists.
-Marc Taylor Managing Partner

Company Profile
Our shop is owned and operated by Marc Taylor and Demian
March.
Lakeshore Bike is the one of the
last shops left in the country where you will still find the owners working on
the bicycles themselves. We have always insisted on doing the work ourselves in
order to achieve the high standards our customers expect. This also keeps
overhead costs low which is reflected in our crazy low prices. We continually
strive to charge half of what the other shops in the city are charging.

Memorable Quotes
"Thanks for the great job you guys did tuning up my bike it's really never
run better! I will never go anywhere else."
- Karen
Hwang, Downers Grove, IL
"I really appreciate your honesty and quick service.
Every shop in the city quoted me a two week turn around time on a a tune-up.
Lakeshore had me in and out in an hour. Lakeshore saved me a lot of money and
time!"
"Thanks
Lakeshore Bike 'n Tune!"
- Nick Mizzell,
Chicago, IL
"One of the bigger shops in town wanted $75 for a
tune-up. Your shop tuned my bike for $40! Why would I go anywhere else?"

Marc Taylor-Managing
Partner: When I am not fixing bikes, I love to race, tour, and ride with
my family. I have raced over 7 years with Wheelfast Racing and more recently
Athletes By Design. With two children, racing and touring
have a taken a temporary back seat to the family. In the off season, I teach
high school History and Psychology in the Western Chicago suburbs. I also
love photography, music, and the fine arts. The photo on the left is a
self-portrait of me and Floyd Landis of U.S. Postal hanging out at the
Downers Grove Criterium race back in the Summer of 2005. I did not provide
technical support for Floyd, but I was there for moral support if he needed
me.

Demian March-Partner: I have had a
long history of bike racing with the Arlington Flyers and Redline Racing
Ltd. I have also had the pleasure of competing in a long list of triathlons,
as well as some of the world's most challenging marathons. My lifelong
interests in athletics and competition attracted me to local shops as a
teenager. After a several years of unfulfilling work as an attorney, I
decided to follow my passions to the bicycle industry. I have found the
greatest fulfillment making cycling and Lakeshore Bike a part of my daily
life. The best part about Lakeshore Bike is that I have been
able to bring joy to others learning about cycling.
