On the morning of 7/12/2026 I went on a bike ride from near their store on my (pedal) road bike from SB northwards on Coast Highway up to Encinitas where I noticed my wallet missing from a zippered pouch that opened up during the ride. Panic mode set in right away, so I looked on my return trip back and couldn't find it. Did the usual, by posting on Craigslist and Nextdoor. This morning I parked and walked the same route, and didn't find it. But on the way back I received a text on my LinkedIn account from Elias at San Diego Electric Bike that said he found it! I called them and it was confirmed, they had my wallet! Wow, what a relief..!! This is a prime example of HONESTY, something that needs to be commended. I left a small reward for Elias, and glad there are people like him around. That said, while my girlfriend has a (pedal) bike, she really isn't a cyclist, but I'm going to do my best to convince her to give an e-bike a try, so I'll see them if she agrees. They even have e-bikes we could rent to see if this works for her. Huge THANKS to Elias and the people at San Diego Electric Bike, they're the best!

My partner and I had a fantastic experience here, thanks to Alexis…read more I came in knowing absolutely nothing about e-bikes and was honestly a little overwhelmed by all the options. Alexis took the time to ask thoughtful questions about how I planned to use the bike and what I was looking for. From there, she walked me through the different models and explained, in a way that was easy to understand, why certain bikes would be a better fit for my needs than others. What I appreciated most was that there was absolutely no upselling. At no point did I feel pressured to spend more money or buy features I didn't need. Alexis was genuine, patient, and focused on helping me find the right bike rather than the most expensive one. Customer service like this is rare. I left feeling informed, confident in my decision, and excited about my purchase. Thank you, Alexis, for making what could have been an intimidating process such a great experience.

He said he was going to check his warehouse and would call me back. A few minutes later, he called and told me he found it and said he would put it behind the register for me. When I went there to get it, we had a nice conversation with the guy behind the counter about bikes and riding in general. All in all, a great experience! As we don't live in the area, I'll probably never be back, but if we did, I would make this my bike shop!

Not only did it give me a new hobby and a way to stay active, it also saved my relationship. My partner and I used to argue about who got to drive the car, but now we happily take turns riding our Griff e-bikes everywhere we go. It's like we're newlyweds on steroids! Plus, with the added boost of the electric motor, I can keep up with my partner's speed without breaking a sweat or a bank. I highly recommend these bikes for anyone looking to add some excitement and fun to their lives and possibly save your relationship too. Just make sure you buy two, or you'll be the one left in the dust. Thanks for being such an amazing local Encinitas company!!

Not satisfied with my decision and planning to return the bike I bought less than 12 hours later...I decided to hit Charlie's which was one of the few in the area I hadn't tried yet, specifically because of the poor reviews here. I had a 10/10 experience, especially by comparison here. Charlie (not the owner, I asked) was friendly, approached us within a few minutes of us arriving, was knowledgeable and answered any and all questions and was very patient with us and our ignorance. Picked up a bike that he seemed to know a lot about, and when I did my own research before buying he was spot on with all of the information. I was glad to give him my business, and I hope that if I experience any service needs in the future for my bike that they will exhibit the level of service I was provided today. Oh, also price wise...I got a new troxus for 300 less than it is being advertised for on the manufacturer website for sale. happy about that too!

Happy E-Bikes unparalleled service Shout out to Dan and…read moreSteve. I recently purchased two e-bikes, one mountain bike and one recreational for my son to get to school. First, Dan is super-friendly, safety conscious and very affordable. I had shopped around and a friend recommended i check them out and after checking out the stock in the shop (by Bobby Riggs and SDA) I decided to support a local business. I had read a lot of reviews of people buying big box ebikes or online stuff and having nightmares Trying to fix stuff. Lo and behold, My son had an accident (he is fine, thankfully!) and Steve repaired it gratis today! (I couldnt believe they were open, let alone able to fix it on a Sunday!) It actually took longer to drive there than the fix. They were out of the part (steering wheel stem) and he pulled it off of another bike they had in stock! Never met Dan or Steve before this, but so impressed with speed and attention to detail. Btw, the stem did not break in the accident, but I stripped the part where you screw it in afterwards. Totally my fault. I am guessing if I had bought a big box brand, there would have been a cost and significant wait for this type of part/repair. Others can probably inform better there. My son asked me to make this post, he loves his bike, its got leather seats, super -comfy and he said its seems better made than a lot of the ones he sees at his school CCA. So if you are looking for an ebike, highly recommend these guys! Support local! And please say hi!
