We had such a great experience at Bicycle Warehouse in San Diego. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. We wholeheartedly recommend Bicycle Warehouse and the friendly and helpful staff-- and we especially want to thank Robb for all his incredible help. He is extraordinarily knowledgeable about bicycles, but just as importantly, he genuinely seems to care about the people he is helping. He made everything we wanted to accomplish happen, gave us insights we never would have had on our own, and helped us work through all the little idiosyncrasies that come with bikes and bike riding. There was almost a familial quality to the way he looked after us--not just selling us something, but making sure we ended up with what was actually right for us. And as a bonus, the Bicycle Warehouse is just a fun place to ride to! It's easy to get to, but once you head down Santa Fe and take that back-road approach, it starts feeling less like you're riding through San Diego and more like you're out on a little trail--and then there's this bicycle warehouse waiting for you at the end. A lovely place, great people, and an especially big thank you to Robb. Bicycle Warehouse: Our new biking home. read more

When it comes to picking a bicycle and components, the devil is in the details. I've wasted too much money on Amazon crap that let me down when I needed it most. Bicycle Warehouse has high quality gear, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and competitive prices. They talked my wife into getting a lower end seat because they knew the fancier one was more than she needed. This was a really positive experience. Patrick did just an amazing job. Really happy with everything he helped us with. read more

Friendly and helpful service, they went out of their way to help me with the parts I needed for my bike.

Great service and bike fitting. Just bought new bike from Robb. Thought i wanted bmx cruiser and he fit me into the perfect bike for what I needed. read more

I visited Bicycle Warehouse a couple of days ago while I was in town. Jeff was extremely helpful. He let me test ride a Giant bike that I've had a hard time finding anywhere in the Phoenix area where I live. He gave me some really good advice on sizing and spent a lot of time trying to find a source for the higher end models that I was interested in. They have a lot of bikes there so if you're in the market for one, they should be able to get you on something good. read more

Had a great experience w this shop. I was having trouble changing my gravel bike tires and kept accidentally pinching my tube during install (yes I'm embarrassed). I brought it in and they swapped out my tubes and put the new tires on for me and only charged me for the tubes. Super cool of them to do that for me and show me the correct way to install new tires/tubes. Thanks guys! I will definitely be coming back for any future biking needs. read more

Service was above and beyond. First time here, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Fair pricing as well.

Always great service from the bicycle warehouse team! Jeff and Patrick are awesome! Only bike shop I'll go to in pb.

Jeff is a gentleman and a scholar, super rad person with knowledge pertaining all types of bicycles. He is patient, courteous, a professional and knows how to run a business when it comes down to it. My first time here, it's been 14 years since I've owned a bicycle. He helped me get the one that was meant for me. Sunday BMX is my new favorite bike. I am gearing up with a solid helmet that he recommended me to get for my travels. I'm lacing up right now ready to ride! Thank you Jeff I look forward to going back for more gear and future investments on other bicycles. You are a solid brother, my respects to you. read more

I visited all three locations in search of a bicycle that would work for me. I receiver great service for Renee, Luke, Walter and Jeff before and after purchasing my bike. Thank you! read more

Great service !!!! I bought my bike there and take it for maintenance. Highly recommended

We received the BEST Customer Service from Jeff today. Wow, he really knows Bikes! We have bought other bikes here before and always had Great Customer Service and pricing. I highly recommend Bicycle Warehouse. read more

Bicycle Warehouse - Bikes Near Me - San Diego, California

I purchased two Adventon Adventure 2 e bikes ten months ago. The staff I interacted with at that time were amazing. I went in three different times before purchasing the bikes. Each time the staff went out of their way to help me and and answered all of my questions. One evening Ryan probably stayed 1/2 hour past closing time to assist me. Two months ago I brought me bike in for the free tune-up and to replace my front brake pads. Again the service was outstanding. I got my bike and I was impressed. In addition to the tune-up, my bike was thoroughly cleaned including the the chain. Finally two nights ago I brought in my bike to fix a rear flat. Don the mechanic was very personable and took the time to show me how to do it. When riding my bike home in the dark I got another rear flat two miles from the shop. I rode over some class. It was 20 minutes before closing when I called them. They said they would wait for me to bring the bike to fix it. After about 10 minutes of pushing my bike, a truck honks and pulls over in front of me as I am walking back to the store. It was Don the mechanic. He loaded my bike onto his truck, drove me back to the store, fixed the flat, and didn't charge me. It was at least 20 minutes after closing time when I finally got on my bike and road home. I was in for a very long walk home if Don had not gone out of the way to help me. These guys are the best! read more

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM ONLINE. Purchased $600 worth of mountain bike from them that came with a damaged crank. They refused to send out a replacement and when I tried to return it the shipping charge was more than $100. It takes forever for them to respond on their online chats, had to wait 1-2 hours multiple times for the same issue and they keep saying they will get back to you. Their online customer care director Kathleen was not helpful at all and tried to blame us for the faulty parts that was shipped despite showing proof of how we followed the instructions step by step per their direction on their website. They tried to resell the faulty parts to us instead of helping out and retain a satisfied customer. Their return policy is a SCAM, they mention free return shipping but they deny every scenario where they are at fault and have the customers end up paying out of their pockets! Totally disappointed. Not buying from these scammers again. They kept on insisting the product got damaged during installation which is clearly not the case unless the product parts being shipped was faulty. I tried being patient and reasonable for a week waiting for them to properly respond and asked just for the part which was not working from the beginning but they didn't have a helpful attitude. Their customer service was TRASH. They kept responding "take it or leave it attitude ". Basically, the overall experience was similar to that of flying Spirit Airlines. #disrespectful and #unorthodox #badCustomerService read more

See all

The team at the bicycle warehouse did a super job on my Giant Trance Pro comp 3. I took it in to them to access why it was running rough. turned out after three years of hard use. it needed. A new rear wheel, hub, axel, rear cassette and chain. the work was completed on time , the bike performed like new!!! read more

Great place for a bike shopping for my daughter's second bike. Informative and caring staff. Happy with the bike we got. read more

I headed to the PB location so excited about picking up my long awaited full suspension mountain bike but arrived 30 mins before opening (didn't realize they opened at 11am) and when attempting to enter the store, door was obviously locked . A couple minutes later Rene came to the door asking what I came shopping for and to my surprise he let me in. We are already off to great service so now everything else is just icing on the cake! We started off with the bike, he showed me the model I came for along with a few other models fully explaining the differences between them. I did not feel in way he was trying to upsell me just giving me the information needed to make an informed purchase. Giant Trans X 29er it is!!! Next we moved onto the pedals, grips and gear. He took the time to explain some of the differences and shared with me his preferences. Again, never did I feel obligated to go with any of his suggestions, just being as informative as he possibly can. After an hour in the store, I got everything I needed and bike was ready to go. What an absolutely great buying experience! I usually don't take the time to leave reviews because in many cases sales personal are doing what they are suppose to. Its only when I experience someone going above and beyond do I feel compelled to write a review. So thank you Bicycle Warehouse for the quality products but most importantly "THANK YOU" Rene for being simply put "AWESOME"! read more

Love this place! Great bikes, super helpful team of guys. I bought myself a giant fathom bike and loved it and now I am buying one for my boyfriend. Walter was so helpful in finding the right bike for him. This place is our go to for bikes! ​ Just came back for my second giant bike! Walter helped me with the purchase, Michael is the man! My boyfriend was surprised with his gift. And Robb helped us rack it up! Great team of guys! This is my go-to for bikes in San Diego!!!! read more

Awesome sauce , in and out no pun intended , great customer service, and great prices . Michael is and was a great help and extremely knowledgeable . Highly recommend read more

Shout out to Rob! Mechanic extraordinaire who was both diligent and kind! He had my 4 year old ebike "purring like a kitten"

Recently bought an electric bike that was within the inventory of this Location. However I did not purchase it there. I had a flat tire on my way home,, and called and they immediately repaired it at an extremely reasonable price. I cannot recommend this place more. read more

Too darn slow. Slow to ship order, slowest USPS option... taking over a week to receive item IN THE SAME STATE!

Ordered a bicycle to get delivered to this Giant authorized retailer. My bike had been stolen and I needed another bike to get back on the road. The company had emailed me my bike had been delivered. I went to the store to pick up the bike, and before they even asked my name they told me my bike wasn't ready and I had to wait for an email from them. I left with a bad taste in my mouth and was not looking forward to returning. It was clear they weren't concerned with helping people getting on the road and enjoying everything owning a bicycle has to offer, rather with making money from sales. When I finally did go to pick up my bike, it was just handed over in the least friendly way possible. So much for buying a helmet or explaining how everything worked. Worst customer experience ever. Felt like I was doing something wrong by picking up my bike. Would not recommend anyone to use this store. I have been to many other stores in PB where the employees are happy to help no matter what. My friend also bought a bike from this store and had an issue and was questioned when he returned 2 days later if he bought it there. Just not nice people and not enjoyable. Had to go buy a burrito to soothe my sorrows after my experience here. read more

I bought my bike from these guys back in December and been trying to get it serviced since Covid. I understand the huge backlog of bikes they must be handling but... for the sake of good business you guys need to be friendlier. These guys were rude to the point the could careless that I had more questions than just servicing my bike. At one point the guy actually stopped talking mid sentence to help out slither employee. Get with the program and work on your customer service. I'm not upset it will take a month to get my bike serviced, I'm upset on how is a treated. And Covid has been around since March when we closed so I would hope by now management would figure out how to hire or train more employees to get bikes fixed faster than a month. read more

If you purchase a bike Online and want to receive it relatively soon, do NOT buy a bike from Bicycle Warehouse. They claim most orders leave their warehouse within 48 hours, but in my experience it was much longer. It took them eight days just to provide a shipping label. To their credit they answered all my emails in a timely manner, but their replies were nothing but excuses as to why they couldn't ship my order sooner. read more

* Business operating during pandemic "thank you" - Review #2 I only started coming here right after the quarantine happened. First to get a helmet. Ethan helped me pick out a helmet and a comfy bike seat for my old bike. I have A LOT of hair and finding a helmet wasn't easy until I came here. Ethan made it quick and easy for me and picked out a great helmet for me on the first try. I returned shortly after to get my bike seat installed. Ethan helped me get it on as well as installed the water bottle holder. The last time I visited I wanted to get a longer seat post but Richard explained to me that my problem was my bike was too small. I was devastated as I've had my bike since college (no that I think about for 10 years). I never realized it was small and it got the job done. Richard showed me some bikes that he recommended and graciously wrote all the info down so I could do some research of my own as I was unsure. Well sure enough I came back an hour later and bought myself a new bike!!! Ethan helped get by comfy seat, water bottle holder and new kickstand on my bike. I know nothing about bikes and have a tiny car. I always struggled putting my bike in my car. Ethan showed me how to take my front wheel on and off and went through everything I needed to know about properly putting it in my car. I'm absolutely in LOVE with my bike. It really makes a huge difference. I can't believe I was riding such a small bike for so long. Well now I know why I was so uncomfortable and struggled getting up the smallest hills. Everyone here is GREAT!! It really makes the biggest difference having people that help you find exactly what you want. Thank you guys. I highly recommend getting your bike here. Now is the perfect time to get a bike! read more

I went into the store twice. Once to get a feel for the bikes and prices. The second time to pick up the bike that I wanted if it was still there. I read some of the other reviews, people complaining about dismissive and rude staff. While I was there I could see how someone would say that. I try not to take things personally. I try to remember that these employees are working there all day, we're just a few faces that they see. Off my soapbox: When I went my second time there were 5 people inside it would have been nice to be told "we'll be with you guys shortly". There are 5 ppl allowed in at once. It should be 5 sets of people. Like a couple counts as one person. There was a cool young couple in front of me, they sparked up a conversation. When they went in I heard Kyle give his spiel on Hybrid bikes. I tried to pay close attention so he didn't have to say the same thing twice. The couple bought one of the bikes. The male had purchased a bike a week prior, and explained to me what I should be looking for. By the time Kyle came over to help I become a bike expert. Once Kyle started helping me, he is literally the kindest, most helpful person. I realized at that point. They weren't being rude to me when I came in earlier, but they're dealing with people trying to get Bikes all day. Bikes are a hot commodity right now. We talked less than 5 min before I decided I'd make the purchase. I can't even ride a bike yet because I just had a knee procedure. Glad I made the purchase though. I have a much better handle on how to actually care for a bike now. Kyle helped me check the fit on my bike, which is different on one leg, and no kick stand. Then he helped me load the bike. I would recommended this place, but I'm not going to. It's my little hidden gem. It's the place that I'm going to refer my friends to if they're looking for a bike. read more

Best place to buy your Mountain bike. Me and my fiancé were looking to buy our first Mountain bikes, we knew nothing about it, Richard guided us on what we needed for what we wanted to do for our budget, If wasn't for him I think we would probably be still looking. Now We keep going back there to buy new gear and get all our bike stuff done. All the staff there are just fenomenal. During this difficult Covid times finding a place like this is just priceless. HIGHLY recommend read more

Hands down the best customer service I have received in a while!! I decided to try out bicycle warehouse instead of trek since they are locally owned. I placed an order for a bike rack for store pick up thinking it would be ready the next day, but after placing my order I received an email that my order would be ready in 3-5 days. Since we are leaving on a trip in 2 days, I needed the rack sooner. I called immediately and was told to cancel my order and to come in since they had one in stock. I was still given the online discount and the guys in the shop were super nice. I am new to mountain biking so I had lots of questions. Jeff and the other staff members were patient and friendly when answering all of my questions. 100% will be recommending to others and will be back in the future!! read more

I called and said I needed some repairs on my bike and they said bring it in. When I got there they said they only repair bikes that they sold (which they did not say on the phone). My bike is inexpensive because I generally ride along the boardwalk and bike paths and I don't want an expensive bike stolen. My surmise is that they didn't want to be bothered fixing a more expensive bike they didn't sell. read more

My wife and I were looking to purchase new bikes. Rene was extremely helpful. He listened to what we needed and gave us a few options. He was never pushy when we told him we were just beginning to look. We visited a few other bike shops to look at what they had to offer, but none were as helpful or interested in our needs so we were glad to go back and give Rene and Bicycle Warehouse our business. We are loving our new Giant Contend AR3 and Liv Rove 4 bikes! read more

Customer service was some of the best I have encountered in my many years of buying high end items. I have been looking for new mountain bikes for four months and Kyle from bicycle warehouse made the decision easy to buy from bicycle warehouse. He spent the majority of his afternoon answering all our questions. We had a lot of them. I could have purchased these bikes in Oceanside (home and there is a bicycle warehouse 5 miles from our house) but the customer service in San Diego was impressive so we drove the extra hour and a half to purchase from him. More importantly the knowledge Kyle displayed about every product we asked about was exceptional. We looked at every possible option available and with the knowledge we learned from Kyle, made an easy informed decision on the products we were interested in. Kyle went above and beyond by setting up our bike pad on our truck, set the bikes up with new pedals, shock adjustment and the "how to's". If you are looking for a place to learn about different bikes or just purchase, absolutely go here. You won't be disappointed! read more

Bicycle Warehouse - Giant Fathom 1 27.5 Green Giant Fathom 1 29 Black - Bikes Near Me - San Diego, California

I've shopped at the P.B. store for years, spent a lot of money and the service was always good. Last week I went in looking for a derailleur hanger. This dude (Ethan) sounding reluctant asks me if I need help....I tell him "I'm looking for a derail"....And he cuts me off says there's too many of them he has to know exactly which one. I was like ok....I started to explain that I have a 2018 GIANT REIGN ....with a SRAM derailleur just like this one pointing to the floor model....he cut me off again and said I NEED to know exactly which one, looking down shaking his head.....So fast forward to today...I got off work early. I take my bike in. First person I see is him (Ethan) again....he has that same dull lazy-I-really-don't -want to help you attitude. But this time I brought in my bike. Again I start to explain he cuts me off and says - we aren't doing service... only emergency service. I said I just need the PART ordered - I don't need repair" . He said cant do it. I asked him "your a Giant Dealer right?" ......He was like "yea" ....with a yea so what attitude. "So you cant order me a part". He said "NOPE".....I walked out pissed. He was just to LAZY to look up the part. So I drove straight to the Chula Vista Bicycle Warehouse.....And guess what? A kid named Hector and another kid with long hair that was training him. Asked me what I needed, they looked at my bike with the SRAM setup and looked at the floor model with the same SRAM setup. Looked the part up on the computer and ordered my part. Hector Munoz and that other kid were not lazy and took care of business. Unlike that lazy dipshit Ethan at the PB store.... read more

I have purchased two bikes from Bicycle Warehouse. My experience has been phenomenal both times. KATHLEIN! She returns calls quick, she's pleasant, she knows the answers, she solves the problem. All with one quick call. Thank you BW and Kathlein. Happy Holidays! read more

I bought a Maxxis Refuse tire on-line that was advertised as Tuebless Ready. However, what I got was not a Tubeless Ready. I asked the customer service for advise on how to proceed and got no response. Then I initiated the return process and since I happened to travel to San Diego I even returned the tire to the shop in person. After 12 days still they have not returned my money. Don't buy from this shop unless you want to get scammed read more

My family of five was outfitted by Richard and we've been going on so many mountain bike trail rides ever since. He knew exactly what we needed and got us in and out ready to ride quickly. Thanks Richard! read more

Bicycle Warehouse - Some of the family on a ride - Bikes Near Me - San Diego, California

I needed a fast adjustment on my road bike. I stopped in during my ride and Matt was skilled and fast on the repair. Great work. Thanks.

At first glance, I couldn't understand why the ratings of this bike shop were so poor. THEN I read the reviews. Obviously, they are written not from those who actually ride, but likely, from the lot who is looking for a cheap beach cruiser and / or can't comprehend the expense that comes along with a quality ride. C'mon yelpers- Don't knock a store because you don't know any better! This is not the store in which you will find your kid his first bike with training wheels. This is not the store to buy an entry level POS that will sit idle, doubling as a clothes hanger because you don't ride it. This is not the store for whiners. It IS a store for riders. Its customers are likely more informed about bikes and know which model they may be looking for. You will find primo bikes, especially for the agressive all-mountain and downhill types, that you can compare and test ride with ease. (in the parking lot) There prices seem to be about 5 % lower than the cheapest prices I could find on-line. Bonus. This is one of the few bike shops that carries high-end, full suspension mountain bikes in San Diego. Even the staff seems awesome. When I purchased my new bike, I was invited to meet up with some of the guys that weekend for a downhill session. There is a passion for riding with them that doesn't involve pink jerseys and merely 'talking about' riding. Its a store for riders. Don't be too upset when you have trouble finding a dingy bell and streamers here. Target can take care of all those needs. read more

YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY FROM BICYCLE WAREHOUSE ....that even if you are sent an item that doesn't match what you ordered, you are on the hook for it. I ordered a red bicycle and received a deep burgandy/almost brown bicycle (see photos). I tried to call the customer service phone number twice and was to receive a call back but never did. I emailed and got the response that this was the bicycle I ordered. I was informed that I could happily return the bike by paying well over $100 in shipping fees, a 20% restocking fee, and lose the $89 "handling/assembly" fee. I disagreed, sent photos, and said the bicycle had been misrepresented. They ultimately agreed that the color was listed differently in some places than others(?) so they would waive the restocking fee. So now I am out over $200 for shipping and losing the "handling/assembly" fee by returning this bicycle due to no fault of my own. They signed off on the email with "I am there for you" and I never received any more communication. read more

I ordered a pair of handlebars from their online store for a fairly decent price. Thats the only positive here. First they ordered the incorrect handle bars from the warehouse and shipped later than anticipated which again its a pandemic I understand shipping takes time. Then when they finally arrived they weren't the correct dimensions listed or pictured so I requested a return. The return took awhile with USPS to get there but once it did finally arrive they credited my account with about 30% of the actual price. Maybe the in store purchasing is better but the online orders I wouldnt trust. read more
