Inspection and Diagnosis
The shop checks the brakes, drivetrain, tires and fasteners with your bike's use in mind. Before starting, the team explains what needs attention first and whether any parts need replacing.
At Riverlalpha, a family-run bike shop in Florianópolis, every inspection or repair starts with a conversation about your bike and how you use it.
Meet the shop
Someone who cycles to work has different needs from someone who rides on weekends. That is why the family behind Riverlalpha asks how you use your bike before suggesting adjustments, parts or an inspection. At the shop in central Florianópolis, the team can show you at the bench what they found. You can understand the proposed work, decide what to do now and know what to watch for on future rides. No replacing parts when an adjustment will do.
I brought my bike in because the brake was making noise on my ride through the city center. The team showed me the worn brake pad before starting, explained the cost of the adjustment and let me test the brakes when I picked it up. I left knowing exactly what had been done.

Gears slipping? Brake rubbing? The team examines your bike before deciding on an adjustment. When you pick it up, they explain what they corrected and what signs to watch for on future rides.
The team can help you choose lights, inner tubes and other everyday items that fit your bike. Availability varies, so they confirm the options before recommending a purchase or installation.
Booking a visit sets aside time to examine your bike and discuss the work. An estimated pickup time comes after the assessment and may depend on the repair needed and the arrival of parts.
