Saved us in a pinch! Quick and knowledgeable bike mechanics. I had a bent derailleur hanger and my shifting didn't work because of that. In about an hour my bike was back to good as new

Great bike shop run by a father and his son. Very friendly and helpful. The son fixed our brakes and gears on the spot. He clearly knows what he is doing. The son also speaks decent English. The shop is well stocked and they also have some rental bikes. I can highly recommend.

I discovered this company a few years ago, when I bought a gift for my dad.
Since then, it has become a point of reference.
A shop where professionalism and experience reign supreme.
Father and son dedicate themselves to their profession with passion, tenacity, and dynamism.
They are always available and strive to satisfy everyone's requests and needs, even the least patient, least respectful, and least polite customers (and unfortunately, there are many of them).
They offer quality, expertise, courtesy, deals for all tastes, sound advice, and fair prices.
In the shop, you can find high-quality products, both for adults and children.
The selection is wide and isn't limited to just bikes: for example, you can find technical clothing, accessories, and spare parts for all types of bikes (road, mountain bike, trekking).
As for maintenance, in addition to their evident experience and passion for this work, the mechanical expertise of the two managers is certified by numerous certificates from major brands.
In short, if you're looking for professionalism, expertise, and honesty, Cicli Ballardin is the right place for you and your bike.

I'm getting back on my bike after a winter break and a dire diagnosis for lumbar stenosis and hernia😭. After a fall last year, the gear change was no longer working properly and a friend of mine got his hands on it, making the situation even worse. So much so that on Sunday morning, thanks also to a wonderful sunny day, I called Luciano and explained to him what I needed... with his usual aplomb he simply said "no problem, come by whenever you want, even now". I threw the electric KTM on the bike rack and rushed to Ponte Tresa!
Junior welcomes me, who with polite and well-mannered manners takes charge of the bike and takes it to the workshop, after less than 15 minutes he had found the damage (bent derailleur hanger) he had repaired it, adjusted the gear and even moved the saddle because it was judged too sloping... quick road test and return of the vehicle with a splendid smile and a "here! Everything is fine"
But how beautiful to see the boy work, under the watchful eye of his father, a young man who knows his stuff and who will surely know how to enhance his father's legacy and the good name of their company. Thanks guys for your work and goodbye.
