What this place is
A bike and skate shop on Avenue Road in Bedford Park that sharpens skates year-round, walk-in, with automatic and by-hand machines.
Spokes and Sports
Spokes and Sports is a neighbourhood bike shop on Avenue Road in Bedford Park that turns into a skate counter when the weather does, and it keeps sharpening skates through the year. The shop says its technicians have decades of experience and that it uses both automatic machines and by-hand tools, so it can adjust the cut rather than putting every pair through the same setting.
You do not need an appointment; walk in while the store is open. If your blades are rusty, nicked or brand new from another store, expect the custom rate rather than the standard one, and a prepaid card brings the cost down for a family that sharpens every week.
York Mills Arena and Baycrest Arena are the nearest indoor rinks, each within a few kilometres, and the shop is an easy stop on the way north from midtown.
Not stated: hockey, goalie, figure, speed / long-track, recreational & rental.
