gr8 store. Very knowledgeable. John is the best! You won't be disappointed with his service.

Jon cares about the safety of his patrons, so much so that when in need of a new chain, he mentioned that it might not be such a good idea because my cassette had worn to the point of not being able to utilize one. Even though my bike was in only for a quick front derailleur adjustment, he checked the brakes, the entire drivetrain and called to tell me what he had encountered. Believe me, this kind gentleman doesn't need my business; his shop is filled with customers, bikes, gear and a healthy dose of goodwill. So, Jon's concern for my safety wasn't a marketing tool. He genuinely treats his customers as he would wish to be treated. Recommended without hesitation, reservation or qualification. You will not be disappointed! read more

Jon really cares about making customers have the best experience when they come into his shop, and he makes sure you leave with a smile on your face. If you need anything bike related this is the place to go! read more

Me and the SO were on a ride through MB when she became concerned over a possible issue caused by a squeeky chain. While John promptly attended to her chains proper lubrication I petted the sweetest little shop dog an Australian Shepherd. Anyway, John was friendly, kind and professional. I highly recommend him and this business. read more

l dropped my Orbea e mountain bike off with John on a busy afternoon at the shop. Something unexpected was going with the derailleur and it wouldn't shift:( A couple of hours later he had it going again!! I really appreciated his speedy fix since we were visiting from Seattle area. We had a great chat about where to ride on the way home! Thx John for the fix and your friendly welcome!

Excellent service, friendly staff, and of course I can't fail to mention the cutest furry companion. So excited to bike Morro Bay for the first time! read more

I needed to replace my valve on my racing bike tire the day before the Morro Bay Triathlon. He (I am pretty sure the owner) replaced both mine and my wife's tire valves in about 5 minutes. I was able to buy an awesome helmet and padded gloves and a water bottle holder, which he also installed for me on the spot. It was very reasonably priced and I set a personal best on my leg of the relay. Very happy for all the help I received. The water bottle and holder was a life saver at mile 10!! Thanks for all the help! I will be back for sure. I am a customer for life. read more

John was very helpful & knowledgeable getting me set up on an e-bike & recommending a good sightseeing route that fit my time constraint. I had such a fun ride! Would definitely recommend Ted Tail Bikes. read more

We are visiting the area and needed a minor bike repair. While there, we got to know the owner, Jon, a bit. He treated us like we were locals! His service and prices are excellent. Anyone looking for a great bike shop in Morro Bay, come here! read more

Did a loop ride from Avila Beach to Morro Bay. Got a flat 4 miles into the ride so I replaced the tube and continued on. When I arrived in Morro Bay I checked the tire and found that the only tube I had dropped 40 psi and the tires was well beyond any future use so I needed to find a bike shop. Checked yelp and found Red Tail Bikes so I rode over went in and I was impressed. I was first met by Remi, the local shop dog, who eyed me up one side and down the other...once I removed the helmet and glasses, he realized that I was just another cyclist and not a sheep to be herded. so he let me be. This small shop was clean and neat with a huge variety of bikes and parts. John asked if I needed help, and I explained my issue, told him I needed a 700x25c tire and a new tube. After checking out 3 different brands, I selected the Conti 5000 along with a buna-n tube although vinyls and plastic were also available. John loaned me a stand and pump so I set to work replacing the rear tire and tube. John is very approachable, knows his business and is ready to help without overcharging. In fact the prices are very reasonable. Sometimes it's not about the destination but rather the journey...John gets it! Congratulations on the successful shop and good luck in the future. read more

The owner, Jon is an expert in all things bikes, is very professional and personable and one of the best in the business anywhere.

I've gone to Jon at Red Tail Bikes a couple of times now. Most recently he correctly identified a cause of cracking/squeaking noises that seemed to be coming from the frame sometimes, and fixed it. Although Red Tail Bikes is fairly new, I've known Jon for a few years when he was manager of another shop in the county. He worked on my bikes several times during that period and always did good work at reasonable prices. So glad he's in Morro Bay now, just 5 minutes away! read more

Love this spot. A much needed addition to Morro Bay. Greta customer service and an extensive selection of great gear.

Red Tail Bikes is a new (ad)venture for Jon, who has years of experience as a bike mechanic and shop owner. In fact, he's known throughout the area as one of the top mechanics in SLO County, and customers drive for miles to have him service their bikes, because he makes sure it's done right. Check out Red Tail Bikes next time you're in Morro Bay. It's a beautiful, newly completed shop with quality merchandise, and you'll be treated fairly and honestly. read more

Best bike shop on the central coast! Clean, organized, great selections, and the owner, Jon, was very informative with helping us choose the right bikes. We received a great deal on our bikes and they offer a nice discount on other items with a bike purchase. I love that they are in Morro Bay right on Main Street and it's so cool how they converted the old Kitty's Kitchen into an awesome bike shop. Happy loyal customers! read more

Jon, owner of Red Tail Bikes is Great! Knowledgeable, skilled, and professional, not to mention incredibly friendly and easy to talk to and deal with. This is a GREAT bike shop! My girlfriend had purchased a couple of older bikes from an estate sale, but they were in need of servicing to get them in riding shape. She left me a box of inner tubes and several tires, but I was completely lost about what parts when with which bike and how to get it all put together. "No problem", said Jon. I was afraid it would take weeks, but he had the tires and inner tubes on, and the bikes adjusted and lubed to great working order in two days! Prices were a bargain, in my opinion for the work and time and parts he put in. I'm thrilled with the service, and this will be my bike shop from now on. Thanks Jon! read more

Such great service! We were camping in Morro Bay and heading up to Big Sur when I discovered my bike had a flat tire...even though the workers were busy, they made time to fix my bike tire, and super quick too! Really cool bike shop, highly recommended. read more

Great local shop ran by the owner, an experienced bike mechanic. Will definitely be my go-to from here on out.

Jon worked on my bikes for several seasons. He is great as a mechanic and also really great to work with too. He spent some time and was able to get the manufacturer to replace my squeaking bottom bracket under warranty. read more
