Just moved to the area recently and needed a place to get my kids' bikes tuned up. I chose Hero Boy because of the Yelp reviews, and they were on point! I was blown away by this place. Nice, neighborhood feel and amazing service. The owner is the nicest guy. I think he does everything there-repairs, sales, etc. I'm definitely coming back and so happy to be able to support this local business. read more

Went to five different bike shops around LA looking for a fixie bike before I found exactly what I wanted at Hero Boy! The owner is so friendly and builds all his bikes himself. He modified the seat to be the right height for me on the same day and helped me load it into my car. Thank you!! read more

I have been going to Ali and Simon for a few years now, have had service and purchased a bike there and as always they are very efficient and helpful. I have moved from the area but I trust them with my bikes and drive out just to have them work on the bikes. read more

Above and beyond service! I came in with a broken seat looking for the best seat for my body type. The first seat I got was not to comfortable. However, the owner was so kind for me to uninstall the seat & install a new one for me to try. Note that it takes about 15 minutes to install bike seats. On top, he also allowed me to test drive for the seats as long as I wanted to. Honestly, the service should have been about 20 minutes but ended up taking a hour long due to how patient, kind & understanding the owner was! He cares more about you being satisfied, even it means he has to do more work. Thank you so much for the amazing service, best bike shop I have been to by far! You wont regret it! read more

I came here yesterday for a rear tire issue and the guys here were extremely helpful and did it for free. I don't usually leave reviews but feel like I need to due to their kindness. I will definitely be coming back here in the future for services and products for my bike. Thanks again guys! read more

I brought my beach cruiser in to get a tune up and to replace some worn parts. The owner was nice and informative. Tune up was only $20 and the parts I needed were only $25. He had it done in a timely manner and even fixed and supplied a part I didn't realize I needed for no cost. I will definitely do business with him again. I would highly recommend him for any bicycle needs. read more

Great customer and knowledgeable service! Strongly recommend for bike/ skateboard business

Nothing but the best service here. I recommend everyone to come here. If you need your bike fixed and skateboard done I recommend this place. read more

Aly always gives fair prices and he's always really polite. Service is also always good. Hero Boy is by far the most affordable and helpful bike shop around Hawthorne! If you need a bike part and they don't have it, they usually make an effort to get it for you also, a great place to buy skate parts! read more

I recently got my tires replace at hero boy. I asked them if I needed a service. They took a look and did not try to upcharge me for something I did not need they gave me a very good deal and did a light tune up. Bikes working good as new. This is an honest and kind shop and I am happy to refer my friends and family. Will definitely go back!!! read more

A epic old school phylosophy exemplified bike and skate shop. Allways a customer first ethic. You want a bike at FAIR price. Heroboy. You want a scateboard at just rates. Heroboy. You dont know exactly the type of bike u have a budget and need some truth in opinions. Heroboy. Heroboy is the feeling when u arrive and when you leave. They dont do e bikes gotta see josh at lunacycles gardena for that. Good to be aroung real people again. Shoot go in and just hang . U will. Be glad u did. There located on the east side of hawthorne blvd just south of el segundo blvd. read more

Worst service ever , I came in the shop with the intention to buy a bike, the guy working would not bring a bike out I wanted because he said its to much work, I told him "how can I buy a bike if I can't sit on it to know what I'm buying" and he just said "okay" and did not get the bike out, so I just left , bad experience . read more

I took my mountain bike here when it needed to be fixed and felt immediately welcomed when I entered the store. Aly and his mechanic are bicycle experts. They fixed my chain and bottom bracket in a short time for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended for your cycling needs. read more

I LOVE this store, perfect for all your skate board needs. Great prices and awesome service, its worth the drive! They offer a wide variety of choices and very honest. read more

I am so glad I made the trip to Hero boy today! I picked up not 1 but 2 awesome fixed gear bikes. The customer service was impeccable. The parts and gear are all quality. They have my business going forward!!! Such a great experience!!! read more

My boyfriend is putting together a bike and had been having difficulty finding a bike head set that fit. After a google search he found this place and decided to give it a try. When he went in he took his bike with him so he could make sure he had the right fit before making the purchase. The gentleman he spoke with (not sure if he was the owner or an employee but he's on one of the yelp photos ) wasn't helpful in the least. My boyfriend asked him REPEATEDLY if he could try the head set on his bike, to which the gentleman refused, saying "they don't allow this". He also told him that all purchases are final sale. This head set takes 2 min or less to try so I'm not really sure why trying it would be such an issue. He did end up purchasing the headset, simply due to wanting to complete the project. The customer service was awful and the next time parts are needed, we will just go elsewhere. In fact, I was pissed that he gave someone business who clearly didn't care about his business anyway. read more

Such a great little local shop with fair prices. I recently purchased a new bike online & was looking for a place to get it professionally assembled. Called in around 6pm yesterday, (just an hour before closing) to get a quote. The gentleman who I talked to asked me what type of bike it was, explained the quote & offered to have it ready for me just before they closed at 7pm. I dropped off the bike (still in box) with the two gentlemen running the shop that day. I showed them a pic of the bike, they got right on to work & sure enough by 7 my newly assembled bike was ready! The two gentlemen working there encouraged me to return if I had any questions or needed anything in the future! Super knowledgeable, kind & professional men running this shop. In fact, all while picking up my bike... they had a young lady in there giving them a really really hard time. Nonetheless, the two men remained understanding, patient & respectful throughout the entire time. This will officially be my go to spot for bike maintenance moving forward! highly recommend! ‍ read more

The gentleman who helped me was amazing. I came in a couple weeks ago and he quoted me a price to fix some stuff on my bike... Came back today since I finally had free time from work/busy schedule and the quoted price was the same. It means a lot to me that a business is consistent. His recommendations were based off of what I liked/needed as opposed to just wanting to make money. Love that type of business ethic and it's exactly what a local business needs as a foundation. I asked my friends who are more aware of pricing for bike parts and they agreed that the pricing is very fair. read more

I walked in the skate shop and everything seemed okay,but the guy behind the counter did not smile and was not helpful and he was very serious. I was excited to choose my first first skateboard,so I asked if he could help me,but he did not know a thing about skateboards he replied "I just work here every skateboard is the same".I noticed he was rude and pushy. I asked if I could see a board behind the counter,so he asked if I am gonna buy it,so I replied yes but I have to check out the board before I buy it.I asked for a second board to see since that board was too big for me.He seemed to get irritated and said "my friend if i take it down the shelf you gonna buy it or else I am not taking it down". I was shocked because he was no help at all and very pushy,and I started thinking? is this how this guy makes his board sales. How am I gonna know if that's the the right size and if that the one I want.I decided to leave because I wasn't gonna buy something without holding it and observing it plus the guy was rushing me and did not let me hold any skateboards.He was expecting me to buy the skateboard just by looking at it from far away which was difficult because he didn't know anything about skateboards.Everything I asked he replied I don't know everything is the same "you touch you buy"This was the worst experience I had,and I was so excited to buy my first skateboard,but not this way.I rather buy my skateboard with someone that has some knowledge about skateboards,be helpful and have patient to sell a skateboard.I am definitely not recommending this place for your first skateboard. No love ;( read more
