Great bike shop! I agree with the other review - the owner, Kevin, is a wealth of information and…read morevery helpful. This is a great place to check out and test drive Bike Friday Folding Bikes. Kevin has a lot of experience with them as well as the better Dahons - so it will be an education. I highly recommend.

Complete indifference to a problem he helped create…read more My experience similar to many below. Called twice before I went to see if he could help me with a bad tube in my fat tire bike. No one answered. When we bought a few hundred dollars of accessories from him for our e bikes he expressed his disdain for fat tire bikes. Since I could get to Kevin's shop with my slow leak I went there. He was just sitting staring at a computer screen. He looked at my bike, made it clear he didn't like it, and said he would check the valve stem. In the process he greatly worsened the crack and the tire lost all air. He attempted to fill it but it wouldn't accept any air. Left with the prospect of pushing my bike home I asked him if he would order the tube (said he doesn't carry fat tire tubes). He said he didn't want to and if he did, it would be at least a week and a half to get to fixing a flat tire. Should he have said if he touched the tube it could lose all the air and be unrideable, I think so. Since he was trying to help me am I ok with what happened. Yes. Not at all ok with him watching me push my bike up the steep hill behind his shop after he let the air out of the tire. This to a local who has spent a few hundred dollars there.

First timer in Newport Beach, so no better way to enjoy the scenery when you're on a time crunch…read more We rode the transport ferry (5 minute ride) to this side of the island, and for some reason we chose this bike shop over all the others. Great choice! We walked in and was greeted by a cute couple. They had a loving vibe, but I'm not sure if they were actually a "couple". The male was really friendly, and gave us great recommendations on the local eateries and scenic routes to travel on the electric bikes we were renting from him. They had a good variety of other bikes as well, just in case you're not into the electric craze. This place will definitely be our go to spot when we re-visit next month for our vacay.

We had such an incredible experience renting bikes here, and it was all thanks to Gus. From the…read moremoment we arrived, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us. His attention to detail, genuine kindness, and willingness to take extra time with us made us feel truly valued and cared for. Gus made the entire process smooth, enjoyable, and memorable. It's rare to come across someone who takes so much pride in their work and goes the extra mile. Because of him, this will absolutely be our go-to place moving forward. We sincerely hope management recognizes Gus for the outstanding service he provides. He made a great experience unforgettable and so much fun! We highly recommend Balboa for all beach equipment rentals.

The guy I talked to, I believe his name was Chris, suggested that I check out the Ruby's 15 minutes away at another pier. I took him up on his suggestion and enjoyed their food.

I was 15 minutes late on returning the bike but they were kind enough not to charge me extra. Great service! I wouldn't mind going to them again if I was in the area.

It takes about 10 minutes to get out of the harbor and and into the ocean for the fun. So if you book an hour, it's about 40 minutes of speed in a 2.5 mile area. 40 minutes on a ski was plenty for us

The staff were way too rude and bougie. When we book there's no mention about a weight limit, but suddenly when we're there and ready, there is?? Makes no sense. The fees are ABSOLUTELY ridiculous; who in their right mind is paying extra for seaweed removal?! All in all, this place is crazy and I would NOT recommend for a family activity.
