Manny did a fast turnaround first tuneup on my 8 year old bike! I'm ready for Ciclavia this month !! Thanks Manny !! read more

I'm glad I discovered Manny's Cyclery. Honest, knowledgeable and trust worthy, everything you need when having someone work on your expensive bicycle! I went to Manny to get a tube replaced and a tune up and he found that the brakes were broken weren't bled properly and addressed it for me. This will now be m my go to local bike shop! read more

Family owned and very friendly and knowledgeable! They got my bike fixed (my nephew destroyed it doing wheelies down cement steps and crashed) and looking great in record time at a very reasonable price. The other bike shop said that they couldn't fix it and suggested that I needed to buy a new bike..They were wrong! read more

Good dude. Helped me when I was in a pinch trying to take off the pedals on my kid's Strider so he could learn to balance first. Most bike shops in the area still sell kids bikes with training wheels, which research shows is not the best way for kids to learn to ride. Manny understood this right away. I went to another highly reviewed shop by the beach and while he did help with lowering the handlebar, he said the pedals would be removed easily and didn't assist with the pedals. Manny took us in without hesitation and already knew they'd be on tight, too tight for the avg person to loosen with homeowner tools. He used his heavy duty tools and even pumped up the tires without my asking. Refused payment for his services when asked. We are just blocks away from him and will be returning for all our future bike needs. read more

Manny's Cyclery - Kid's Strider getting turned into a balance bike - Bike Repair/Maintenance Near Me - Torrance, California

Manny has been my "go to" mechanic for over 25 years! He has "gone the extra mile" to get my bike back on numerous occasions.

I brought my KHS 750 Flite to Manny's Cyclery for some maintenance and tune up. Manny was very patient and explained the service in detail. It's great supporting local businesses and so many bike shops closed down during the pandemic. I'm glad Manny has a convenient shop nearby for my road bike needs. I had my handlebars re-wrapped, new speedometer installed, chain and derailleur adjusted, new tires and new tubes installed. Took a few days but I'm happy with the service and the price was reasonable. For your bicycle needs, you need not look far. Manny provides impeccable service in this full service shop. read more

Tune up on 2015 Rockhopper ($600 new, 9 years ago) new brake pads, new chain, new cables, $280. Owner is nice but....cost is Too Much. Go somewhere else. read more

Amazing service and fairly priced. . He put a new tube and a chain on in about 10 minutes and also aligned the bike. I highly recommend Manny. Thanks! read more

I called looking for a place to inspect and repair my newly purchased bike. I needed the brakes adjusted and the wrapping fixed on the handle bars. He was speedy and also added the finishing details on my handle bars to look like a new bike. Thank you Manny. read more

Dropped off my '01 GT iDrive 3.0 for a LONG overdue tuneup. Got both tubes changed, tire liners (didn't even have to ask Manny cos he took initiative), and rim tape, too. Also, my gear shifters were malfunctioning. Manny said he'd open them up and hopefully the springs just need cleaning and not replacement. Just cleaning - whew! He also changed out cables. When we walked in, he said he was pretty stacked up, but could get to my bike first thing in the AMs (we left the bike) and will have it done that day. He kept his promise. Bike looks and feels 20 years younger! As always, I have a price in my mind and he came in under! He knows his stuff and he knows about the industry. We chatted about GT, the company, for a bit. Make sure you support local small biz - BONUS that Manny is so versed in his trade and SO honest! read more

I broke my bike chain and needed it fixed. Manny fixed it and gave me the best price for it. He also noticed my brakes needed to be fixed and fixed that too. Overall great experience and will definitely be back for any future repairs. read more

Good shop and will be very helpful in any situation with your rig. Can't go wrong with Manny

Super great experience - surprisingly nice selection of bicycles for such a small store! Was able to get the perfect cruiser and the man who helped (Manny I assume?) was very knowledgeable and proactive. He aired up tires to make sure my test drives were the best possible experience, taught me how to use my new lock, and gave tutorials on several things on the bike (like how to remove and put on the front wheel correctly). He also has a nice long sidewalk outside perfect for testing cycles! read more

Manny did such an awesome job with tuning up my bike. I found him on yelp, and decided to take a chance. He was knowledgeable and his prices are competive and fair. My bike rides better than new. You'd be in good care using this vendor. read more

I've never met any bike mechanic/owner who is as honest as Manny. He was recommended by a friend when I had issues with my left crank arm and front derailluer. Cherry on top, I forgot to mention to him the loose headset when I left my bike, Manny took the initiative to fix upon my return to pick up! This shows how much he cares, other big shops would just do what you ask them to do disregarding anything that may need to be done for your safety. I will be going here moving forward, I've already recommended a couple of my buddies to come here and will continue to spread the word! Manny, I hope you keep up the great job, may you continue to stay honest and healthy! Great job! read more

I took my s works Roubaix road bike for a repair. I prematurely shifted my gears too quickly, which caused my bike chain to come off and cut off the derailleur, and also bent the rear wheel. He did an excellent job straightening and rebalancing the wheel and replacing the broken derailleur with a new one. Manny is an awesome dude! He is a very knowledgeable and experienced bike expert. He is the only best one in Torrance (Southbay) area that I take my road bikes to. His rate is also the most reasonable around the area. Thanks again, Manny the magician. read more

Fair prices for reliable work! We will definitely be returning for our bicycle needs and repairs. read more

During Covid it's been tough trying to find a bike for my son. Manny took the time to respond to my e-mail and allowed my son to test ride the bike. He was very polite and set up his bike even before we bought it. His pricing was fair and he included an item that most local shops wanted to charge for. It's not a surprise why he's been in business for so long. Keep up the great work! read more

Great locally owned bike store. Manny is very knowledgeable and took the time to listen and answer questions. Got a great bike here for my daughter, before taking it home Manny checked every inch, cleaned it up, and added air to the tires. 5 star service! read more

Brought my bike here since it has a flat tire. Came at 5:30 pm, near closing time and Manny offered to have it done before 6 pm which is really cool. And since i brought the bike late, i told him that i can come in Saturday morning to pick it up instead, and he was fine with it. Came back Saturday 10 am and my bike is already fixed. Thanks Manny! This is now my go to place for bike repair and shop! read more

When you want professional service, you want great skills and great personality (kindness, honesty, likableness, personable). You can't trust pro if they lack either of them This guy has both. He has skills and is very kind, honest, likable and personable. I have been coming here for a few years and will continue to come here. read more

I was in search of a certain Bianchi bike. I called Manny and he had it in stock. Manny was so kind and professional. He held the bike for me and the next day when I went to pick up the bike, he explained how to adjust the height of the seat and he even helped me place the bike in my small car! Manny is a gem and I trust him! read more

Manny is a local hero. He's great with bike repairs, honest, and just an all around great guy.

Thank you Manny, once again another great build. Litespeed C1R, Campagolo Record 11 EPS. This is my third bicycle he has built. Manny is more than a mechanic that knows how to install parts, he knows how these parts are suppose to work and knows how to fix them when they are rebuildable. So, if you want to get your bicycle repaired right, go see Manny at Manny's Cyclery. read more

Manny's Cyclery - Bike Repair/Maintenance Near Me - Torrance, California

The description on this site is not accurate, Manny is not a bicycle technician, he is a wizard! Back in 2013 I started commuting 3.5 miles to work in San Gabriel on a mountain bike that I scored on Craigslist. Uphill in the morning and downhill in the evening. I got a nice workout before work and a breezy cruise on my way home. We moved to the South Bay after I changed jobs and again I started riding the same bike. I kept it outside and it withstood the elements for the 5 years that I had it. It is 2018 and six months ago when I noticed that I couldn't shift gears. My shifter cable was shredded... literally... like a really dry croissant, or baklava, the insulation was just flaking off so there was no tension on the cable at all. Did I give up on my daily exercise? Of course not! I grabbed my wife's mountain bike and started using that. This past Saturday, I brought my bike to Manny's in bad shape. After five years of minimal maintenance done at home and six months of sitting in the back "yard" of our apartment, it had gathered a lot of dust, rust and cobwebs and weather worn tears on the seat (which I'm sure my appetite for good Del Combo Burrito didn't help). Manny told me that I would need a new seat, cables, and a good tune up, and potentially a new shifter since the clear plastic screen on mine had shattered like Amy Adams' hopes of winning an Oscar. Don't listen to a word I say Amy, I believe in you. You can do it! I asked for an estimate and he replied, "It will cost you less than a new bike," as he started writing and punching buttons on his calculator. [FADE TO FLASHBACK with subtitle "San Gabriel, 2013"] I walked into her garage where she showed me the $500+ mountain bike advertised on Craigslist for $50. I grew up in Los Angeles through the 90's so I just assume every bike is stolen ESPECIALLY $500 bikes in excellent condition going for $50. So I asked, "Why are you getting rid of such a great bike?" She said, "My husband and I are getting divorced so I'm selling all his crap." Me: "How much do you want for the Bimmer?" [FLASHBACK to present with subtitle "Manny's Cylclery, 2018"] "It'll be about $182.50 for parts and labor if I don't have to change the shifter." I hear Manny's voice say, as I shook myself awake from my daydream. My first reaction was, "That's more than $50!" but I bit my tongue and said nothing because it is still less than $500, plus I still had some leftover DJ money from a gig I had the previous month. Let's see what this guy can do, I thought to myself as I walked out the door. I am as tight with my wallet as a camel's butt in a sandstorm so to make myself feel better, I called my environmentalist granola buddy who has been resurrecting bikes to save them from landfills. He told me what would probably go into fixing my bike and he said that the cost was VERY reasonable. --- Three Days Later --- I went back to Manny's after work on Tuesday (the day he said he'd be done) and I literally walked past my own bike as I made my way to the counter where Manny was. "I'm here for the red Giant bike," I said. He pointed behind me, "I finished it earlier, but forgot to call you." Seriously! I. Did. Not. Recognize. My. Bike. The bike I had been riding as a daily commuter for years! The rust was gone! I could have sworn the chain was made of rust when I dropped it off, and now it glittered like new. The frame looked red and silver again! The chrome was shining and the new seat was a sleek jet black throne untainted by sun, rain, sweat and frijole fumes. I rode it to work early this morning and it felt like a new bike. I can access all the gears and it feels like it takes less effort to pedal. I initially thought that the tires were flat, but after inspection I noticed that Manny got the rust off the dampers and greased my shock absorbers. Another thing I noticed was that the seat was at the perfect height for me. Manny is the man! Now I need to save up some more cash so I can get the wife's bike tuned up. Then we can take a romantic cruise up the coast from Redondo Beach to Santa Monica. read more

Manny was awesome! I brought my bike in because I stupidly took it apart to try and clean it and couldn't figure out the exact pieces that went together. He put everything back as well as did maintenance on the bike and it only took him a few days. He was very courteous and upfront about what I would be charged which I was very grateful for! Would definitely recommend his shop for all your bicycle needs! read more

Always full of knowledge. Never tried to up sell you on anything. Really looks out for the best interest of the customer. He even repaired my bob stroller the other day! He's the best read more

My new fav bike shop! Manny is great and so professional. Went in to have my beach cruisers tire repaired and it's running great!

Walked in to leave a bike for lubrication and derailleur indexing. Manny was "too busy" and too expensive = "Go away". Waste of your time. Go to REI bicycle department instead. So, what does Manny sell at "Manny 's Cyclery" anyway? Just wondering. read more

Manny is my go to bicycle guy.. always honest and looking out for his customers.. prices are fair and always support your local small business.. avoid amazon if u can read more

Manny was communicative and attentive to my bike's needs. He offered much insight on maintenance and how I can save money.

I brought my 30 year old Mountain bike in for a tune up. I'm trying to get back in riding with some friends. One of my shifters was not working right. Manny said he will try and fix, but might require replacement. He was able to fix at minimal cost. That tells me he is honest and knows what he is doing. He could have just sold me a new shifter and made more money off me, but he did the right thing! Plus, he got the work done quickly compared to another shop I checked with (days vs weeks). His pricing is also very fair. The bike works great! I will be using him for any and all services I can't do myself! I absolutely recommend him. read more

Manny is amazing! I lost the bolts and washers for my front tire and he helped me find the right size and took the time to make sure it was correct so I wouldn't have to come back! He was very sweet and patient as I knew nothing about bikes. Will be visiting soon. read more

This bike shop is what I used to grow up with. Small but very good an honest. I recently took 6 bikes for things like tires chains tune-up brakes and more. I am happy knowing I can ride and not worry that my kids and I will not breakdown due to repairs. I remembered Manny when he was at the Ted's Cycle in Manhattan Beach so long ago I hate to give my age. Thanks for making family time fun again. read more

Finding Manny's Cyclery was a miracle. I purchased a beautiful purple bike a few years before the COVID shut down from a different bike store. I was looking forward to riding on the many bike paths that exist for our riding pleasure. Because my bike is big, it was difficult to put it in my SUV without removing the front tire, I didn't have a rack yet. Once the tire was removed, I could never get the front brake connected correctly and the back tire had the brake rubbing against it. I took it back to the shop I purchased it from many times & was humiliated by the guys that serviced bikes & the problem wasn't fixed. Went to a different bike shop & they refused to assist in taking the bike out of the car. Finally found Manny's, 10 minutes from my house. He offered to get the bike out of my SUV, looked it over & showed me that the brake cables were broken, causing the tire to rub on the back brake. Next day, I picked up the bike & Manny showed me the proper way to carry the bike on the rack safely, sold me a strong bike lock & I've been riding regularly every since. I'm so grateful to have found Manny's Cyclery and I love riding at night & day. Everybody should have Manny's Cyclery for their bike service, he's a bike whisperer! read more

I just got back from picking my bike up at Manny's. He gave me a very competitive bid, for the job .He went way above and beyond, in fixing the the problem that I went in for, and I could not be happier with the repair job and the service that I received. Thanks so much Manny. I will they letting other family members and Friends know about your business when it comes to bike repairs.... read more

I have been going to Manny for years now. It began back at his days with Manhattan Beach Cyclery, and still continues now at his own store. I always take my bike to him for routine maintenance check ups, and for any tune ups and such. Now that the store is in North Torrance it is much easier for me to get to him. read more
