He showed us the perfect bike, then adjusted the handlebars and put on training wheels. He also gave me tips on how to teach my son to ride without training wheels. My son played with some of his tools while he did this. When I asked about their snow bikes, he told me about how they were riding them all winter. So nice to see a shop run by true enthusiasts.

I dropped my bike for a summer tune up and there was a bit of a wait so it took a week but it's riding better than ever and it was a really fair price for the work!

I have personally been buying from IMS for the past 3 years. I would love to share what I come to…read morelearn about them. 1) Quality of the product Well, they sell Chinese made product, however, far above the bottom the barrel stuff you would get from amazon or other online lowcosters. They have been doing this a while, they know their manufacturers, and often order machines per their own design/specs. Apples to apples, oranges to oranges, their product is a solid mid-grade, at affordable prices - which makes it super attractive for me. 2) Service and repairs I am not to fond entirely of how some of my repairs were handled. I pick my battles and do not antagonize people over small things, when a big issue happens, and I need something warrantied, or replaced, they always come through. 3) Staff and friendliness IMS has been in business a long time! Some people do not realize that, but businesses like this one evolve and improve. What might have been an issue 10 years ago, has been rectified, businesses that keep making the same mistakes, simply vanish - this one has been around 14 years, and will keep being around, because people need what they do.

With this said, IMS is a great place to buy these from. IMS repaired it for me recently, and even though it was past its warranty they still didn't charge me as they said it shouldn't have broke the way it did. That's integrity. Highly recommended.

I had a leak between the rim and front tire on my 05 Harley Sportster XL883R and so I called around…read moreto find someone who would fix it. I got a bunch of different estimates, some over $300. The Harley dealer in Everett recommended I buy a brand new tire to fix the problem even though my tire had about 200mi on it. I heard about Rahns through word of mouth from a couple of Harley owners so I decided to take a ride down to see him. After pulling the tire off my bike and identifying the problem he had the most logical idea to fix it, just throw a tube in it. He charged me $82, 3 times less then anyone else. I was in and out in no time, the whole fix took maybe 30minutes and he had a chance to look the bike over for any other problems. I know there are a lot of places in the area to take you bike to have fixed but I'm sure Rahns is the best. Not only is he friendly he is extremely thorough, honest and passionate about what he does. Most dealers simply look at your odometer and throw a service package at you. Rahn is much different when he takes a holistic look at you bike then recommends only what you really need. There is no doubt in my mind that I will only get work done at Rahn's and I recommend him to everyone in the Boston area. Oh yea, and if your looking to add some extra power to your bike hes got the parts, know how and a dyno right next door.

Love the vibes in this shop. These guys are equipped to do anything with motorcycles. Forget the TV…read morelegends, Rahn's is the real deal.

My 27-year-old Harley was in desperate need of a new seat, and I was unable to find the right one…read moreonline. Every shop I called was negative about it, saying that they didn't carry anything "that old". Even the HD website was no help. So I rode into Shadley's on my way to work (I was in a hurry) and Bobby took me to the counter where he had a huge catalogue. Then, just like in the old-days, Bobby found the EXACT right seat for a reasonable price and the next week, after several more futile searches, I called and ordered the seat. It arrived in 3 days and I installed it myself with my own tools (I am a 67-year-old woman rider!) and it is AWESOME. I was treated with dignity, respect, and excellent service, and this is now my go-to place for my antique Harley! Thank You, Guys!

I took a basic welding class to make a barn star at the Garrison Speed Shop in Mendon,…read moreMassachusetts. I have never welded before or used some of the tools and equipment required. The template pieces were all laid out, but that was it. Co-founder Luke had me read and sign all the releases first, and asked about my experience with welding etc. Being a Veteran myself, Luke as well, and the non-profit supporting Veterans and First Responders, he also made sure to ask me if loud noises or anything would bother me. Every step was explained and demonstrated before I was able to do it, and as nervous as I was at first, it quickly went away knowing he took my safety, the safety of others as well as their shop very seriously. Co-founder Ben also provided some muscle when I was unable to bend the metal myself. In just over 2 hours I had sanded, measured, re-measured, bent , hammered and welded together a really cool one of a kind 5-sided barn star. It was definitely something different to do and it was a really cool and fun experience. 5 stars !

If you plan on buying anything, you will want to bring your own bag as the chain is 'bag free'. Prices are very good. Competitive with Amazon.com and better than Cabela's. I used to go to the store in Framingham when I was in metro west, also the store in Reading... I'm not sure if both are still there. Shopping since '96, Co-Op member since '12. No negatives,

They have basically anything you need for outdoors activities. I've usually shopped for hiking gear and camel backs or osprey / rei branded stuff. Also got a pair of hiking boots.

They have plenty of sales going on, bicycles standard and electronic assisted, survival gear, clothing from all sorts of brands, boots and hiking gear, camping gear, lanterns, knives, paddles, water shoes, and also have deals on traded in gear.

I bought my bike here and brought it back to get a new seat a few weeks ago. I dropped it off expecting to pick it up in a day or two and he called me back in an hour and a half!! He put a new seat on, tuned up my breaks and fixed a problem I had with my gears all for 40 bucks! Unbelievable! He even went outside with me to see me test ride my bike so the seat was the perfect height. Parking lot is kind of small but I've never had a problem. I'm getting a new bike soon cause I've had mine around 10 years and I ride a lot. This is the only place I'll go! Like I said, he's a small business owner and wants to make you happy. If he doesn't have what your looking for he'll try to order it for you. It's so great to go in and talk to someone who has so much knowledge and love for bikes cause he's been doing it his whole life. 5 Stars!!
