Located on Orange Ave in Roanoke, Virginia, with its main shop in Grandin Village, this bike shop…read moreoffers a wide selection of new and used bikes, as well as the very popular electric bikes, bike parts, biking accessories, such as helmets, wardrobe, backpacks, waterbottles, bike computers, sunglasses, among other bike related items. Besides their bike sales with competitive prices, and complimentary tune-ups after purchase, they also provide quick and efficient bike repairs for various issues, including flat tires and broken hubs. But besides the vast selection of bikes to choose from and efficient service, I was highly impressed by their knowledgeable and friendly staff who offer excellent guidance and attentive service to all who enter their shop. I was able to meet with the person in charge of sales, a young and friendly gentleman with an amiable personality, who has been with Cardinal Bicycle for over five years. He was very helpful in showing me around and explaining their available products and services they currently have available. And I was able to observe him deal with other customers who came in while I was their. One in particular was a gentleman who came in with a beautiful blue bicycle he had bought from there years ago, had sold it, and then after a few years, bought it back from the person he had sold it to. From looking at the bike, I could see why he had missed it. It was amazingly beautiful. He had brought it in for a tune-up, right after having bought it back from the person he had sold it to. I invite you to view my photographs and videos accompanying this review to get a better sense of the place, its merchandise, and even the people which I have mentioned in this review. Roanoke, Virginia, being the Mountain Bike Capital of the East Coast, not only has many local bike lovers, but also many tourists from all over the world who come to visit for the great biking opportunities that this region provides. The region hosts prestigious competitions such as the USA Cycling Endurance Mountain Bike National Championships. It also prides itself of having vast trail networks. Riders have access to hundreds of miles of trails, from the beginner-friendly loops at Explore Park to the technical backcountry singletracks at Cavins Cove. No wonder the International Mountain Bicycling Association gave Virginia's Blue Ridge the rare and prestigious Silver-Level Ride Center status. The bike shop also has a Community Bulletin Board where it has information from places that teach you how to ride a bike for the beginners to future competitions for the advanced. In conclusion I highly recommend this bike shop for all your biking needs and thank all its employees for the exceptional customer service that they provided me with during my visit.

Glad to have this shop near my town :) (I find it quite lame that there is a 1 star review for this shop that was posted from someone out of state who admittedly has never been to the shop - ummm...what?)

I want to say Trek Bicycle Shop in Blacksburg is the BEST bicycle shop in the history of bicycle…read moreshops! I bought my Trek Verve ebike there and it's an extraordinary bike. They have provided the most amazing service on that bike and also my Canondale road bike. A special shout out to Grayson who has taken care of me repeatedly and has even performed some repairs without even charging me.

My set up is with two different brands and could only service one, which fortunately was the primary. The staff were really nice and friendly. Helped me find a few items in addition.

For customers, I HIGHLY caution anyone who is interested in buying a board/gear from this shop as…read moreit seems that not every employee/manager/owner has the customers best interest in mind. Do your OWN research first, look online, watch youtube videos and decide how YOU want to ride before deciding to buy a board from here. I have been here many times before and have never felt fully confident in the recommendations that have been given by the shop. Good location. Decent selection. As far as clothing goes, the selections to choose from are pretty good and they have a variety retail items that cover most needs out on the water. +1 The gear selection is decent as there is a wide variety of products including hyperlite and phase five to choose from. +1

For Hokie fans and followers, Rally House appears to be the most complete fan store in the area…read more Rally House took over what used to be the Tech Bookstore - it's located on Main St in the downtown portion of Blacksburg. Rally House will definitely be busy during football gamedays, so it was a relief to visit them on a chill Saturday evening (and Sunday morning). They have a big (but not too big) showroom, and they offer anything and everything you could imagine. If you can think of it (and you if you want it to display Virginia Tech), they have it. Being a huge basketball and football fan, I came in looking for clothes. When I came across their website a few weeks ago, I noticed they offered Nike gear that the other local Hokie-centric stores simply don't have. I kept a mental note of the items I was interested in and picked them up during my recent Blacksburg visit. Rally House's main entrance is actually on the second floor. This building was built on an incline (i.e., hill), so their showroom is technically downstairs. Once you've gone down the stairs, you will find a clean and organized showroom full of Virginia Tech clothing and various other items. They also offer gear for the Washington professional sports teams - Commanders, Capitals, Nationals (hmm, now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think I saw any Wizards gear). There is one wall that offers Blacksburg tourist-type clothing, which I thought was pretty cool. The staff is made up of mostly college students. They were all friendly and helpful. My purchase transaction was quick and easy. I obviously spent way more time looking, but I was comfortable throughout my visit and wasn't pressured to buy anything. Finally, their price points matched (relatively) with other local Hokie shops. Some items were a bit more expensive, but from what I could tell, the more expensive items were the items that weren't available anywhere else. Thank you, Rally House! JV

I felt like things were going awesome. I was contacted fairly quickly about my finance application and was impressed with what I was offered. I decided that I would make the 8 Hour drive and purchase my motorcycle from Frontline Eurosport when I arrived at the dealer, I was greeted by name without Pat, even knowing who I was felt like I was in the right place I was able to test drive when other dealers simply wouldn't allow. The test drive along with Pat's knowledge really is what set things apart for me and made my overall decision when I met with Parts for the additional accessories I wanted I was given a nice discount complementary after purchasing a new unit. Nice perk! Chris, the finance manager he really made it all happen and come together at the end getting Parts to be as flexible as possible. Chris was awesome. Had a redhead daughter like my own that I brought with me. I think it's really nice when employers are able to accommodate children being in the workplace when needed! Overall, I had a great experience. I honestly wish the dealership was closer as I really would like to purchase another bike before too long! If ever in the area, please don't hesitate to stop. It was a great experience.
