It was so nice not having to be without my bike for long since I'm training for a race. The amount of selection for accessories is also great, and all the employees have been super friendly. It feels like the prices are very reasonable too so I'll definitely be back for future repair/tuneup work and shopping.

I own two motorcycles, a Harley and a Janus. A lot of Harley's products are made by other…read moremanufacturers and then just marked up. For example, I have a 3/4 open face Harley helmet. It was $255. Later when I needed parts for it I found out that it was made by LS2 and I got the parts to fix it from here. And their price for the same helmet...$140. Fool me once.... So now I sometimes find a product I like down at Tobacco Road or another Harley dealership and then I check to see who makes it and the price difference. And if it's a big difference I go to Cycle Gear and get it here. The staff here is super knowledgeable. They know exactly how to fit you for various gear including helmets. They will install your headsets and communication devices in your helmet free of charge. The one thing I don't like...a lot of times in the helmet area what is on the shelf is what they have. I bought a Shoei helmet from them and it wasn't until later that I learned it was missing a chin guard and a breath guard that came with the helmet. They throw away the boxes that the helmets come in. Sometimes they have a little plastic bag with the paperwork, manuals, and additional pieces...often times they don't. And it doesn't make a difference if you order it online, they often will just ship inventory from another store so it's hard to get an unopened helmet. They have a great selection of all types of gear from gloves to chaps, adventure style pants and jackets that zip together and have tons of tech. Various clothes and items to make you comfortable. Even cupholders and oil! On top of it all they are huge supporters of the local motorcycle community. They host bike nights and are often the starting point for group rides to big events and they even host some of their own events. And when a rider passes, they sometimes setup a memorial table for that rider to honor them.

REI in Durham is my go to place for trail running shoes…read more They have great brands like Altra and Saucony to name a few. I've always gotten excellent service while shopping here for running shoes. Maddy has helped me on two different occasions with picking out shoes, she does a phenomenal job at suggesting shoes and giving you time to make decisions and not making you feel rushed. Great value on trail items like backpacks, shoes, socks, bikes/biking gear and other items. Definitely check out REI in Durham *I live in Raleigh but, travel to Durham to go to this REI.

Maybe because its tucked all the way in the corner pocket of Apex? Apex is up and coming right now so it only makes sense to put a Rue in the area. This location is always clean and just like the other locations the service is great. I love the sales that they have and this location features a pretty big selection of clearance items. Every time I stop thru this location I am always assisted by smiling faces. Parking is great... the location kinda stinks because its far from me... other than that awesome work Rue Apex!

Last summer I brought my boat into Water World for an alarm sounding (motor overheating). As they…read morewent through the motor there were other items they found wrong. I approved all of the repairs and knew ahead of time the cost ($4,400). That was a "tough pill to swallow". We got the boat back in September but due to an injury and surgery the boat was covered and parked in a barn until this year. A second surgery prolonged our launch for this season. When we launched the boat, within a few minutes the over heating alarm sounded. When I contacted Water World I spoke with Connor (new service department manager). He asked me to bring the boat in and he listened to my story/concern/complaint about the alarm still sounding even after the large repair bill. He was calm, understanding and asked me to give him/crew a chance to look at the boat. He was up front and said it would be 1-2 weeks. About 12 days later he contacted me and said that they had found the problem, fixed the problem and did not charge me for the repair. When I picked up the boat he explained that he was not with the company last year when I brought the boat in and based on my recollection of the issue he felt that the necessary repair last summer was an oversight and that it was the right choice not to charge me for this repair. Kudos to Connor for remaining calm and professional and making good on a mistake that we both agree should not have happened. Thank you again Connor for your professional conduct. By the way, a week later we launched the boat and everything was working great!
