Tanner Kietzman / The LABikeWrench
After years in the bike industry—turning wrenches, riding hard, and seeing what works (and what doesn’t)—I decided to build the kind of shop I always wanted to work in:
One built on precision. Clean tools. No fluff. Just real service for riders who care.
I don’t just work on bikes—I ride. And I ride well. I’ve spent years pushing bikes to the edge, chasing lines most people walk, and feeling every single detail that matters when things get fast, steep, or sketchy. That experience shapes how I wrench. When your brake bite point’s off or your suspension isn’t tracking, I know it—not because a checklist told me, but because I’ve lived it on trail.
The LABikeWrench is my response to what most bike shops have become—assembly lines pushing flat-rate tune-ups with no real passion for the craft. Too many shops treat service like an afterthought, rushing bikes through the stand without caring how they actually perform. That’s not how I work.
Every bike I touch gets that same rider-level attention. Every setup is precise. Every bolt, alignment, and adjustment is made with intention—because I know how it feels when a bike’s dialed… and when it’s not.
I stay plugged into the latest geometry shifts, suspension trends, and gear drops—not because it’s part of the job, but because I genuinely give a damn. I test, I tinker, I ride—so when your bike rolls out of here, it’s ready to perform where it counts: out on the trail.
The LABikeWrench SC isn’t a side hustle. It’s a purpose-built service course for serious riders, run out of a private workspace in Northern LA and serving Ventura County and beyond. Most work starts with a conversation—so if you’ve got a question, a problem, or a build in mind, hit me up.
Dialed in by someone who rides like it matters—because it does.
