Daymond and Alex were incredibly helpful in this process. I received outstanding service from them and they answered all of my questions thoughtfully. They are quite knowledgeable about biking and feel I can trust their recommendations for my biking needs. I highly recommend checking out this place for any service needs, equipment, or new bike purchases. The staff is thorough in their work and dedicated to helping each person find what's best for them. I look forward to returning here for all my bike needs. Jeff fixed up my old bike (hopefully I'm remembering the name right) and Derrick also provided some insight for the Trek to be fixed up. Overall, the people that work are are genuinely excited to talk about biking in general and passionately share their ideas. This shop has a great selection of bikes as well

The hike from the bridge to 25th Ave is about 3 miles round trip. To make it longer you can go .5 miles through some side streets then hit the Lands End trail beside the Legion of Honor. The Batteries to Bluffs trail and California Coastal trail intertwine and are often mixed up with each other. Technically the Coastal trail goes along Lincoln while Batteries to Bluffs goes down closer to the beach and alongside the batteries but usually most people will go down one and come back the other way. There are so many beautiful photo opportunities but keep in mind that it's usually slightly to extremely foggy in these parts though there are some rare completely sunny days.

The Immigrant Trail is a short connector trail that goes from the Immigrant Point Lookout to…read moreLincoln Blvd where you catch the California Coastal trail. The trail has some stairs before it forks. You can take a left which goes through a path with many trees and views of the Seacliff neighborhood. There is also a large tree stump looking out toward the view that I've seen people meditate on before. This trail ends at Pershing Drive where the Baker Beach apartments are located. From there you can walk to and loop around with the Lobos Creek Trail. If you go right the trail goes to Lincoln Blvd where you can join the California Coastal trail to the bridge and loop back around coming the way you came or going through Fort Scott. Both loops are about 2 miles.

Looking for something a bit off the beaten path yet close to the city?…read more Here's another gem of a trail by the Presidio Trust, volunteers and funded by a grant from the Evelyn and Walter Haas Jr. This trail connects the still new Immigrant Point lookout with the Great Highway and leads right down to continuation options on the Coastal Trail. From the bottom, head north to connect to the Batteries to Bluffs trail, then back to the coastal trail, head south to either hit the sand ladder or stay on the coastal. Great views and a way to both preserve the land yet allow access. Good for kids, dogs and even active grandparents. Be careful crossing Great Highway, people aren't expecting pedestrians at the crosswalk there so eyes wide open. I run the area a few times a week and have been waiting for this to open to keep me off the roads and on the dirt. My dogs love it too! KUDOS to those who made it happen. Now get out and enjoy it! Can't wait for Rob Hill Campground up the road to be completed next...

The only problem I've…read moreever had is their placing my ebike in their property area outside in the sun not caring if it's 92 degrees on a lithium battery for hours. (Thus one star removed). The attitude wasn't good when I brought it up to Steven who expressed he couldn't care less about the issue. It's actually potentially dangerous of a fire according to AI! I'm going to stop using my newest heated battery now because AI says it may be damaged.

I live in the neighborhood. I have gotten public bikes repaired at this store. Many of its…read moreemployees are nice. However, today the owner was rude and i will not be returning. My 8yr old daughter and I stopped by bc the chain on her bike was loose and i have no bike repair skills. Once the owner saw my daughter bike brand (Guardian), he refused to help. Then (with my daughter standing besides me), he proceeded to give me a several-minute diatribe about his hate towards the Guardian company and how they are a shitty company with bad biz practices. i respect any business owner to do business with companies of their choosing HOWEVER, to shit on the company of my daughter's bike right in front of her was rude and immature. Just say "we dont work on Guardian bikes"- end of story. So if you want to go to a bike shop with an owner that acts this immature in front of a child and clearly has a chip on his shoulder, this is the shop for you. i choose to do business with people who act with kindness and discernment.

Swell is my favorite bicycle shop in SF. Christian helped me yesterday. My chain broke and they…read morewere able to replace it on the same day if I lined up when the store opened. The line was about six deep at opening. Great communications. While they were working on my bicycle, I received a call letting me know my brakes and rotors needed replacing also. That saved me another trip and a potential safety hazard riding downhill. All in all, bleeding of the brakes, brake pads, chain replacement, rotors, fixing the bent rear derailer was $400. My bicycle feels new'ish now. The next recommended service was to change out the old cables. I'll be sure to do that soon. Love Swell Bicycles! Thank you again Christian for working on my bike.

Jeremy studied the installation manual from cover to cover. He has a strong background in bicycle bionics which lent itself to his comprehension of the Swytch system; yet without a diagnostic system to pinpoint the problem issue (as with bionics), Jeremy relied on his acute tenacity, patience and excellent logic to solve the problem. He is the genius who succeeded in converting my manual bike into a zippy, extra thrilling ebike! I strongly recommend Jeremy and Big Swingin' Cycles for both service and sales. If you want an a Swytch ebike kit installation, look no further. I'll return to Big Swingin' Cycles and will continue to deservedly share this massive success story. Thanks Jeremy and Big Swingin' Cycles for my ebike which has justifiably grown into my healthy obsession!

The entire play area is so well thought out, clean, well maintained. Restrooms are clean. Parking is plenty. It's just such a beautiful place to spend time with family and friends. There's usually a rotating coffee pop up that'll sell donuts and coffee or matcha. All delish and a cool way to learn of new cafes in the area. I've had the Salvadoran coffee pop up (can't remember the name) and what coffee Vietnamese iced coffee (yum!). Restrooms at the park are very clean, however my son has a sensitivity to noise so the bathrooms in the Sports Basement are where we go as they are quieter. Sports basement is a great place to checkout too. They have bikes you can rent for the family (the ones that ride like 6 people) and so on. Definitely check this place out when you're in the city!

The Presidio is such a cool part of SF, and this is a great spot to slow down, enjoy the scenery, and catch up with friends or family. The East Meadow is also near the recently opened Mess Hall, which makes it a convenient location if you're planning to spend a little more time in the area. You can keep things simple and just hang out, or plan ahead for a gathering. There are picnic tables available to rent, and you can even reserve part or all of the East Meadow! Definitely something to keep in mind if you're looking for an outdoor spot to bring a group together. What I like about this area is that the setting itself is such a big part of the experience. You have space to gather and those classic San Francisco views right around you. Whether you're planning a picnic or just looking for somewhere to enjoy an afternoon, the East Meadow is worth checking out!
