My wife and I took our 2 kids in to pick out their first bikes. We are not cyclists, so we needed lots of help. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable, but they made us feel very comfortable. They put 2 bikes together so my daughter could pick the color she wanted. We did not compare prices, but whatever premium we paid for the service was well worth it. We will definitely be back when the kids outgrow these bikes.
2 months ago I had a lot of work done here and in my opinion it was poorly done given the high price. I didn't feel well treated, more told what they would do (some of which they charged me fore but did not do) and handed my bike back. I should have shopped around, I think I was upsold. They forgot to give me a new chain, so I paid $30 for nothing there, and I never heard back after writing and calling about the bike still not being able to shift gears properly.
I hope I can save you a similar experience, I recommend you not have work done here.
little to no mountain bikes in stock. somewhat overpriced although they might say they'll look into a discount, it still wont be a good enough price.
Helpful people, good sales and super selection. What else is there? ;)
As you can tell by the number, I purchased this bike some time ago (15 to 20 years ago) and I am still riding it. The folks at Flythe are knowledgeable and friendly. Repairs and products are a bit pricey, sometimes prohibitive, but overall I have been pleased with the quality of the products they sell and the service that they provide.
The guys at Flythe don't seem like they know too much about bikes or various brands. They were unfamiliar with Salsa, which is a pretty big name. (Salsa's a subsidiary of QBP so I'm not sure how a bike shop would not know about them.) I asked them if my stem was part of a recall, and they had no idea or interest in finding out. I brought it in to Allstar Bikes, and they immediately called the manufacturer to find out if my stem was part of the recall.
They sold my sister brakes that wore out in less than a month (and, no, she doesn't ride the brakes or do an extreme amount of riding). Also note Flythe's brakes were more expensive than a longer-lasting alternative from Allstar Bikes.
They replace the headset on my sister's bike. A few days later the whole front fork and handle bars started wobbling significantly. She brought it back to Flythe and they told her nothing was wrong with it, there was a 'break-in period for new headsets'. Yeah right. So, she brought it to Allstar and they told her that whoever had replaced the headset had stripped out the star nut.
Moral of the story: Flythe doesn't know what they're doing, Allstar does.
Great place to get your bike repaired. Took my hybrid bike, gave me a great price on the part, and only charged me ten bucks for labor. Everyone was very friendly and the bike was repaired like new ahead of schedule.
Bought a new bike from this place. I'm a newcomer to biking. I got a very good deal on my bike (I shopped around a lot and spoke with other shops in the area). Just as important, I received a lot of helpful advice. The man who sold me the bike also showed me how to attach a used bike rack to my car (even though I had not bought this from him). Highly recommended.
Repaired a bent rear rim in about 15 minutes for $20. The guy I dealt with was really nice too. I would go back again.
Awsome staff , great service at great price.. Must visit .
Thanks Wes....
