    Bike pads weren't lined up properly, shouldn't have to fix things after a 'mechanic'…read more ​ local shops are brand bound. i tried to get a very common part\accessory. the bike shop tried to gaslight me that the problem is because it is a proprietary product, something made special for the bikes company, call where i bought it. That's lying.then said we don't sell those Chinese parts ​ , that's racist and incorrect. all this terrible interaction was to hide the brand loyalty they're bound to. i am afraid of sabotage as a tool to drive me away. instead of just outright refusing service because my bike is the wrong brand. I went and got some facts for you. Why That Statement Doesn't Hold Up If that shop truly refuses to stock any components made in China, they're likely contradicting themselves without realizing it. Here's why: · Tier 1 Components: Even flagship groupsets from Shimano (Japan) and SRAM (USA)--the two dominant players--have significant manufacturing, casting, and assembly operations in China, Taiwan, and other parts of Asia. A "Shimano" bike isn't a "Japanese" bike; it's a globally sourced product. · Frames & Finishing: The vast majority of aluminum and carbon fiber frames sold worldwide--regardless of the brand name on the down tube (Trek, Specialized, Cannondale, etc.)--are manufactured in Taiwan or China by OEM giants like Giant or Merida. · Wheels & Finishing Kits: Items like stems, handlebars, seat posts, and even high-end carbon wheelsets often come from specialized Asian manufacturers, even if they're branded with a Western company's logo. However, the blanket statement "we don't carry Chinese parts" is a massive oversimplification. If they are selling any modern bike with Shimano, SRAM, or a branded aluminum/carbon frame, they are selling Asian-made parts. A Quick Reality Check for the Shop Component Likely Origin Shimano Drivetrain Japan (design), China or Malaysia (manufacturing) SRAM Drivetrain USA (design), Taiwan or China (manufacturing) Aluminum Frame Taiwan, China, or Vietnam Carbon Frame Taiwan or China High-End Wheels USA/Europe (assembly), but rims/hubs often from Taiwan Overwhelming Share: An estimated 87% to 94% of bicycles and their components in the United States rely on supply from China alone . · Industry Reality: This high level of dependence means that almost all bikes sold in the U.S. are either manufactured in China or assembled there from Chinese-made parts . · The Cost Factor: For some U.S. manufacturers, components sourced from China represent as much as 90% of their total parts cost .

    I've bought six bikes and multiple bike adjacent items for my family from Geoff's over the last 10…read moreyears. Their staff is great! I've really appreciated their advice and bike tune-up expertise in everything from new tires, better chain lubricant, to why one bike is different than another when buying. they've always let me take them on a test spin before buying for me or my kids. I've got a high level of trust for their work and opinion. A few years ago they assembled a child bike trailer (Wee-hoo) for me when I bought it, which saved me hours!

    This Scheels is located at the Coral Ridge Mall, specifically next door to Target. I love Scheels…read moreand so my husband, our little girl dog (yes Scheels are dog friendly) and I came by to this location this afternoon for a visit. When we came in, we had a few employees greet us and smile as they saw our little girl (honestly it's hard to be in a bad mood when you sees you because she is so cute and will turn your bad day into a much better one). Not expecting to really purchase anything in particular, we just walked around the store and browsed. This location sells Iowa University clothing, that can be found on the first floor. There is also a mascot statue of Herky The Hawk by the clothing section (an older version of this mascot). Upstairs, you can find rifles, binoculars, etc. But most importantly the dog section, in which our little girl was very excited to lead us to (although this is our first time visiting this location, she just knew where her section is). We let her choose what item she would like for us to buy her, which ended up being a resealable bag of dried salmon dog treats. At the register downstairs, this friendly employee had asked if our dog had picked out this item herself, lol. We laughed about it, as we told him yes she did. Overall, had a great shopping experience and would shop here regularly if I lived around this area.

    How have I never reviewed Scheels?…read more I am grateful to have this location. With two kiddos that are active in a lot of sports, Scheels has come to the rescue a time or two. (Specifically, when I realized my son didn't have an adequate batting helmet for baseball mere hours before his first game of the season. I was able to order online and pickup no problem. He is insanely proud of his golden helmet, might I add.) This location expanded during the pandemic and has a ton! Hunting, biking, fishing, skiing,... a robust Iowa Hawkeye apparel section... shoes, apparel-- you name it! Honestly, my favorite spot to shop Scheels is online. I got some amazing Fornia clothes on clearance. My blazer I got is legit one of my favorite things and I spent less than $10-- what a steal! I also got some great Mud Pie Christmas decor super cheap online. It's open daily, parking is a non-issue. Staff is always so friendly and knowledgable. As I mentioned above, don't forget to order online easily for pickup.
