ABOUT KENT BOORMAN & CRANK DRIVE
Direct, rider-to-mechanic experience with no middlemen, games of telephone, or hidden costs.
A PERSONAL TOUCH TO THE MAINTENANCE SIDE OF YOUR RIDE
With over 23 years of riding experience, an 88-hour certification from the esteemed Winterborn Bicycle Institute, a Park Tool weekend intensive, 24 years of personal maintenance, and 12 years of public bike mechanic experience in Ottawa, I offer a personal and professional touch to your bike service.
Covering all bike needs from my full-service home-based West End Ottawa shop as well as my East End Orleans shop, Crank Drive is fully insured and licensed as a business.
I am the only one you speak to and the only one working on your bike or your family member's bike. No game of telephone between the service counter and the workshop.
