Great local bike shop. Installed a new Sram drivetrain and cockpit on my Venge and it looks/rides like new! Thanks!

Excellent local bike shop 👍 Staff are friendly, skilled, and helpful. They can special order nearly any bike part currently available on the market. If you buy yourself a project, the mechanics can build it. The Saturday shop rides are a great community experience.

I’ve had nothing but great experiences here. The staff are super friendly and their mechanics are incredible. Doug and Nick always do a great job when working on my bike. I had a seat post issue that was reoccurring (2020 canyon aeroad seatpost creak, a well documented design flaw) I watched every YouTube video to try to remedy it myself, but it never lasted longer than a couple days. I finally brought it in because I was super frustrated that I couldn’t fix it. When I got the bike back, it was finally fixed permanently, I haven’t had a single issue yet and it’s been like 4000 miles. The staff is so friendly and they remember me, which makes me feel like a friend. I’ve been here a half dozen times and I’ll continue doing so. Also, they are a small family owned business, not some chain. I always try to support small local businesses. 5 stars all around

I didn't buy a bike there but liked their sales person Kyle. He was friendly and helpful though he might have been slightly high? Not sure obviously. Explained a lot about the bikes. They don't have the usual Cannondale, Cervelo etc but Specialized and Bianchi road bikes. Not as many options as say Mikes bike or a few others. Mom and pop store.
