Good bike shop!

by andyshef at Citysearch

I go in there at least once a month to see Eric, the owner and talk with him about the newest bikes and racing.

They help you out even if you bought your bike elsewhere.

If seen them doing minor repairs for free. I bought my Intense Tracer there and I love it.

• Pros: The owner races, so he knows his stuff
• Cons: What are the drawbacks?

Good service department, sweet bikes!

by Jerryb29 at Citysearch

Full of good bikes, great deals and suuuuper friendly people. The only down side is that it can be very crowdy on summer weekends. The best is that they can order almost anything for you within a couple of days and their prices are very reasonable. Say hi to Frank, the best mechanic in town!

• Pros: good service, sweet bikes
• Cons: crowdy on summer week ends

Rip Off Beware!

by zumabrrls24 at Citysearch

I recently went in to the Santa Monica location for a routine brake job on my front brake. Half an hour later i am told and shown that neither brakes work or are fixable. Immediately after one of the "owners" tries to sell me brakes for "the best price." The prices he gave me were almost $200 more than most online bike mail orders, so I tell them I will hold off. Just then, the mechanic says "...uh let me try something I saw on the internet." All of the sudden the brakes work again WOW! I am out $40 for the mechanic time and my bike is exactly how it was when I brought it in. I ended up fixing the problem myself. I was referred to this shop by a few friends whom I have all told never to come here again. These guys are ridiculous, will act like your friend and will rip you off. My guess is that they are used to wealthy people coming in and spending anything no questions asked. I would not recommend this shop to anyone!

• Pros: Nice Shop
• Cons: Will Rip you off! Way overpriced
