Not exactly my forte. Skate shops can have an intimidating environment and as a newbie going into a bike shop i felt that vibe in alot of places... valley bikes was the way bills wheels felt when i first walked in years ago. Not trying to make a sale but just trying to make sure that we get to enjoy the passion as they do. I regret not actually getting the names of these fellas, but i went to a couple bike shops, looking to get info and direction in what i need to do as a person who has to ride a bike out of necessity for leg rehabilitation. Perhaps i will become a bike person. Learning proper care and just being educated on the product i am purchasing has always been important to me. Not very many shops could even give me the time of day with how booming the bicycle business is during covid. I walked in and out of a couple bike stores but valley bikes did it right and really gave me a great greeting as a new customer. i felt welcome and helped me get set up and going on the path to healing my leg through riding a bicycle. I cant thank them enough and valley bikes will be my only shop worth visiting. Thanx boiz!

To my surprise they did not try to up sale us on anything and they had everything in stock. The next time we needed some new tires we went to Marina Cycle but they were not open so we drove to Valley Bikes in Salinas. I was in a bit of a hurry to leave town so I had Valley Bike install the new tires. The next day when riding my wheel fell off my bike!!! Needless to say I will take my business back to Marina Cycle where problems like that never happen. ** Definitely recommend calling before going there as they are not always open.

I can honestly say the service at REI Bike Shop has been outstanding. Their workmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stand out. A special thank you to Trent, who provided exceptional service. Trent is knowledgeable, thorough, and clearly takes pride in doing things the right way. It's rare to find someone who combines technical skill with genuine customer care, but Trent does exactly that. I also received help from mechanic David, who was professional, helpful, and clearly skilled at what he does. It's great to see a team where multiple people are committed to high standards and quality service. Based on my many years in the sport and experience with countless bikes, I can confidently say their work is top-notch. I highly recommend REI Bike Shop, and if you have the chance to work with Trent or David, you'll be in great hands.

She was also very helpful and patient in setting us up with the proper equipment and going over the functionality of the electric bike before the tour. Having been to Carmel and 17 Miles before I had not expected much, but experiencing it on the bike with a guide was much much better and rewarding and enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour! My wife and I had a blast! And don't worry about not being able to handle the heavier electric bikes over the hilly terrains, you'll get use to it and the boost from the electric motor makes the climbs simple!.

Perhaps the bigger places prey on tourists but Rooster Wheels Bike Shop is a true hole-in-a-wall in the best sense possible. On a random weekday afternoon, we got there as a dad and his two daughters were happily loading bikes into their car. One guy was finishing up his transaction and three more potentials customers came by...all while we had only been there the short time we were there. All this to say that William was juggling many things at once from repairs to sales to rentals and yet he never rushed anyone (including us). He seemed so kind and honest and very down to earth. He checked every single bike, filled tires with air as needed, and even let me have a wrench to adjust one of the bikes. Who does that?!??? So awesome. On the COVID front, he had the front roped off so customers aren't touching all the bikes, he wore a mask, & used sanitizer on every bike to disinfect and constantly sanitized his hands. Last random bit to share....William was great with my kids. Very gentle and encouraging to my younger kid by telling her she could learn to ride a bike and gave examples of his own kids learning at the ages they did! And his dog Pedal was such a well-behaved and sweet dog. If you're the kind of person that uses kids and dogs to gauge a person, let that be a nugget of info for you! What a lucky gem of a find for me and my family! We will be repeat customers. Thanks William!!!!

You get to enjoy the beautiful outdoors and get in some not too strenuous exercise too. Sadly, this business will be closed permanently at the end of August 2025. This is a must before then and you'll definitely enjoy every minute!
