Bike Service, Sales and Suspension
in Ada, Michigan
A bike shop for Ada riders
Biked is 15 to 20 minutes from Ada Village, at 2312 28th St SE in Grand Rapids. Bring us your bike for a tune-up, a repair or a suspension rebuild, let us pick it up from your home, or come in and find your next bike.
Ada has some of the best riding around Grand Rapids: Egypt Valley and Cannonsburg singletrack just to the north, paved paths along the Grand and Thornapple Rivers, and the roads the Grand Rapids Triathlon uses every June.
Two easy ways to get your bike serviced
Visit the shop
We’re at 2312 28th St SE, Grand Rapids, a short drive from downtown Ada. Drop off your bike, talk through a new bike or custom build with us one-on-one, or pick up parts and gear. We’re an authorized dealer and service center for Specialized, Cervélo, Transition, BMC and ENVE.
Pick up and drop off
Our van is in Ada all the time.
- We pick up at your home. You don’t need to be there: leave your bikes in the garage while you’re at work and tell us where to find them.
- Up to three standard bikes ride for one fee, so the whole household can get serviced at once.
- One way works too. Have us pick up your bike and stop by the shop to get it and talk it over in person, or drop it off with us and we’ll bring it home. You only pay for the trip you use.
- Pickup is $20 each way. Depending on where you are in Ada, an extended-area fee from $15 may apply. Call 616-234-0134 to check your address.
- A $95 minimum service applies, and oversized bikes have a $15 transport fee.
Find the right bike, not just a bike
Buying a bike at Biked is one-on-one. We ask how and where you ride, help you choose the right model and size, and set it up before it leaves the shop. We keep our floor small on purpose and order most bikes to your size and spec, so you get the bike that fits you instead of the one we need to move.
We’re an authorized dealer and service center for Specialized, Cervélo, BMC and Transition, and we do custom builds with ENVE, Chris King and Industry Nine parts.
Road and gravel
Road bikes for Ada’s township paths and the flat country roads of the Grand Rapids Triathlon course, and gravel bikes for the PEDALS gravel route and Barry-Roubaix, from Specialized, Cervélo and BMC.
Mountain
Trail and cross-country bikes for Egypt Valley and Cannonsburg, from Specialized, BMC and Transition, plus custom builds and suspension tuning from our Suspension Lab.
Triathlon and e-bikes
Cervélo triathlon bikes for race season, and Specialized Turbo e-bikes for longer rides and keeping up with the family.
Egypt Valley and Cannonsburg Ski Area
Egypt Valley, in the Cannonsburg State Game Area just north of Ada, is a classic intermediate singletrack loop of about 7 miles in four sections, with parking off 4 Mile Rd near Dursum Ave. Most riders go clockwise. The game area closes September 15 to February 1 for small game hunting, which makes fall a smart time to get your fork and shock rebuilt.
A short road connection away, Cannonsburg Ski Area has about 11 miles of twisty singletrack, climbs and descents plus a skills area, free to ride in summer. Thanks to the West Michigan Mountain Biking Alliance for keeping these trails rolling. Riding from Forest Hills? See our Forest Hills page. Coming from Rockford or Belmont? See our Rockford page.
Paths, Roselle Park and the river
Ada Township has been building paved paths for years, paid for by a voter-approved trail millage. The Thornapple River Drive path runs south from Buttrick Avenue and links into Cascade Township’s 17 miles of paths. North of the village, the Grand River Drive path passes Roselle Park, where a paved trail leads to a river overlook and canoe landing, with about 2 miles of natural trails to walk.
The Grand Rapids Triathlon
Every June the Grand Rapids Triathlon, Michigan’s largest independent triathlon, starts at the boat launch on Thornapple River Drive. Athletes swim the lake-like Thornapple above the Ada Dam, transition in Ada Park on Buttrick Avenue, and ride a flat country-road course.
We get a lot of bikes ready for it every year, including for riders on the race teams we support, so book as early as you can.
PEDALS at Townsend Park
Every September, Townsend Park in Cannonsburg hosts PEDALS, the Susan Mast ALS Foundation’s ride fundraiser: a 100k Iron Horse road ride, a 20-mile road ride, a 32-mile gravel ride and a 16-mile mountain bike ride, plus a 5k and a 1-mile walk. Biked takes part and promotes it every year.
Coffee and food in Ada Village
Plenty of Grand Rapids riders head out to Ada Village, refuel and ride back. The Ada Covered Bridge, first built in 1867 and rebuilt after a 1979 fire, carries foot traffic across the Thornapple to Leonard Field Park, a short walk from Legacy Park on the river.
Start at Foxtail Coffee on River Street or Jam’n Bean on Ada Drive, and finish at Gravel Bottom Craft Brewery.

Mountain bike suspension service
Roots, climbs and fast descents at Egypt Valley and Cannonsburg wear on your fork, shock and dropper post long before you feel it. Our Suspension Lab services Fox, RockShox, Marzocchi and Manitou, and we recommend a full fork service after 200 hours of riding.
- Full Fork Service, from $190
- Fork Lowers Rebuild Service, from $110
- Full Shock Service, from $190
- Shock Air Can Service, from $85
- Dropper Post Rebuild, from $80
- Frame Pivot Bearing Replacement, from $105
Good timing tip: Egypt Valley is closed September 15 to February 1, which makes fall and winter a smart time to get your suspension rebuilt before spring.
Getting your bike ready for race day
This is a big part of what we do. We get bikes ready for races and big rides all season, including:
- Barry-Roubaix (Hastings, April)
- Dirty 30 Gravel (Saranac, April)
- Lowell Classic (Lowell, spring and fall)
- Michigan Gravel Race Series events
- Grand Rapids Triathlon (Ada, June)
- KeyBank Gran Fondo (downtown Grand Rapids, June)
- PEDALS (Cannonsburg, September)
- The Dirty Mitten (Middleville, September)
- Iceman Cometh Challenge (Traverse City, November)
We also support several West Michigan race teams across mountain, gravel, road and triathlon.
Book as far ahead as you can. Demand gets high in the weeks before a big event, and booking early gives us time to order any parts and sort out any issues with room to spare before race day. Either way, we’ll work with you to get it done.
