At last I found the shop, but I can take my bikes to that I trust. This will be my new local shop. I train for triathlons and needed a trustworthy place to go. One of my teammates recommended this shop. Great work, fast, and very fair prices. read more

5 stars! The personal service that I had always hoped for! Bought an e-bike. Feel great about it. read more

Incredible service from Kiyoshi. He replaced my rotors, rims and a bottom bracket for me and the bike is running better than ever before. He's definitely knows what he's doing when it comes down to serious work on a bike. Thank you read more

Kiyoshi the MAN!! Super helpful and very nice. He was super helpful in fixing up my bike. Would definitely go back

I had a really great experience here. I stopped by a little over a week ago with a flat tire. Not only did they replace the inner tube, but they made a correction on a poorly installed rim tape to prevent future damage to the tube. Very fast, professional, and knowledgeable. I'm really glad there's an excellent bike shop within walking distance of my home. Highly recommend. read more

Top notch shop! Been here multiple times to shop and have my Santa Cruz serviced. The shop is always clean, the service is great, and the selection of bikes is always rotating. Kayoshi is super knowledgeable and very friendly and kind. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a good Local Bike Shop. Give them a shot! read more

See all

I was traveling across country with my bike and came to Kyoshi with an odd request. I needed a box for my bike so that I could check it in and get it to my destination safely. Kyoshi went out of his way to hook me up with a box that I could use to travel my bike. He opened up a new bike that we was going to sell, let me have all of the packaging from inside of the box and went out of his way to give me tips on how to pack the bike most effectively. There wasn't really much incentive for him to help me out but he took time out of his day to do so with patience, knowledge and kindness. I haven't gotten to go back to Backroad to repay my gratitude but Kyoshi exhibited the kind of professionalism that makes loyal customers. I will be back soon. read more

Had my e-bike assembled by Kiyoshi and Charlie - they did a great job, good price, very friendly and knowledgeable. Two thumbs up and thanks! read more

Such an amazing store! Ive started going here a couple times now for various parts after buying a bike and its been amazing! The worker is so friendly and gives great advice, and all the items are super affordable compared to other stores! Plus free installations! Totally recommend coming here for anything! read more

Went to get my bike worked on. The owner, Kiyoshi, is excellent. He is knowledged and straight forward, no unnecessary sales pitch. He said what is needed and what needs to be done and when it will be ready. Nice to have a neighborhood bike shop. Will definitely visit again and again. read more

Awesome local bike shop with a nice selection of bikes, parts, and accessories. Kiyoshi the owner is very knowledgeable and friendly.

Backroad will help you think outside of the box and help you and your bike become one. read more

I never post reviews (typically) unless either the service was so bad that I feel compelled to warn others or the opposite. In this case, I am happy to report that if you reside around the Glendale area and you need to have your (road, in my case) bike fixed... You HAVE TO (seriously) give this shop a shot! Kiyoshi (the shop owner) is a GREAT mechanic and just... an excellent guy! He took his time (without rushing through) to explain to me (after inspecting my bike) what should be done and why. Super polite, super friendly, super chill. The prices are great too! I feel lucky to have this shop just a block away from my house! Look me up on LinkedIn if you have any additional questions. I'll be happy to help. Thank you, Kiyoshi read more

Backroad is by far the most responsive and expedient service amongst all the local bike repair shops here! Yesterday I got an old mountain bike from a friend and it needed a tune-up, so I called around a few local repair shops. While some places had disconnected numbers, others quoted me that it would take three days to replace a set of innertubes, and even some places didn't have chains/innertubes in stock. Then I found Backroad Bikes--Kiyoshi was very quick to respond and quoted me a very honest and reasonable price for the innertubes and chain (and he has all parts readily available!). When I brought my bike in, he was friendly, professional, and clearly very knowledgeable about bikes! He gave me helpful information about which tires would be best for the terrain I'd be riding on most and informed me on which gear shift combinations might cause issues on my 21-speed. I took it in around 3pm on Saturday and Kiyoshi had it ready by Sunday before 1p! Super fast!! He fixed my innertubes and tires, replaced the headlight and oiled the chain. He even test rode it himself to make sure it was riding smoothly! This is now my trusted, go-to bike shop! Wonderful experience. Thanks, Kiyoshi! read more

Any time I need an issue with my bike looked at, Kiyoshi has been helpful and let me know what the problem was and how he fixed it. I love having a neighborhood bike shop like Backroad Bicycles. Any time I stop by they have a big stock of accessories, used bikes at reasonable prices, and usually a few ebikes too. read more

I took my son's bike in to do some repairs that I wasn't able to do myself. Very nice shop and friendly owner. He managed to fix the problem with a very fair price. I highly recommend this shop. I love small independent businesses like this and plan to return. read more

I had a great experience getting my bike fixed at backroad bicycles, the gentlemen who owns the stop explained exactly what I would need for a much smoother ride and I couldn't have thanked him enough for all of his help, if you are need to purchase a bike or trade in one backroad bicycles offer those services as well as purchases read more

This is a good business and I am happy to share my positive experiences of their stellar service and incredibly reasonable prices. Kiyoshi, the owner, is very attentive, polite, and helpful. My kid was ready to learn to ride and I needed the back brakes adjusted. Many bike shop owners see an opportunity to charge $50 for such a simple service, and usually you have to wait a day or more. Kiyoshi dropped what he was doing and did a quick fix, and charged $15 for the labor. Later, I had a flat tire -- twice. Both times I was charged a super reasonable amount for a quick fix while I waited, the second with a new tire and I wasn't charged for the inner tube. Now that we are back on our bikes, it's nice to have a local bike shop in Glendale that you can count on -- honest work at reasonable prices. read more

I went in for a bike tune up, the staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. The parts and labor prices are reasonable and would highly recommend this shop. read more

I went there to turn in my damaged/used bicycle inner tube for recycling since I found out that it's toxic and should not be put in trash or plastic bottles recyclable bins. The young attendant on duty told me that they don't accept inner tubes and I should either put it in regular trash or contact another city (I.e Burbank Green Project) if I want to do the right thing for the environment And ask them for help. I asked what they do with their used inner tubes since they are a repair shop and if they recycle them? The attendant didn't give me a straight answer which was very alarming. Anyway, this shop seems to only cater to people who walk in to buy stuff. They don't care about the environment and/or customer service who happens to be a local resident. I will never go back there again for any of my bicycle service needs. read more

Excellent neighborhood spot with an owner who goes above and beyond. Super helpful, quick and honest. Really can't ask for anything more! Have done a few repairs/adjustments on city and gravel bikes. Will definitely be back again and would definitely buy a new bike from them when the time comes. read more

I needed some work on my 40-year-old ten-speed road bicycle. I called several places, but when I spoke with Kiyoshi I knew it was the shop I was looking for. Kiyoshi runs a one-man shop and does a great job of it. He is professional and very patient....and I always ask tons of questions. With a half hour I had a derrailleur, cable and chain installed. Back on the road again! read more

I bought a bicycle from a private party that was still in the shipping crate. For a very reasonable fee, Kiyoshi put it together and made the adjustments to the brakes and gears that were needed. I picked it up and it was ready to ride. Kiyoshi does everything with confidence and a smile. Also, he has used bikes for sale in his shop that I wish I would have known about... check out this shop when you need a bicycle or a repair! read more
