Good people. Won't sell you something you don't need. And my daughter liked trying all the different bikes and they didn't complain

I have bought 3 bikes and 2 sets of skiis from Walter. His…read moreafter sales service is wonderful. My wifes ski boots were not fitting properly after a year. Walter replaced them - no charge after a year! I recently (May 2019) bought a bike from Walter and had a tire problem after 700k.m. Again - replaced no charge and no questions asked. I highly recommend Olympia!

We had the pleasure recently of dealing with an incredibly knowledgeable store owner and his…read moreamazing staff at Life Sport on Pembina. I was referred to this location by a business colleague who stated to me that he had done business with the owner in the past and would go back again and again. I am pleased to say that he was right and on the mark.... I was not only content with my purchasing experience; but after realizing the knowledge I left with, great staff that took the time to really explain things, as well as the pricing and true value of the long term relationship I now look forward to for any warranty issues. I would recommend them to anyone looking for information and/or considering purchasing a bike that hadn't thought or known about them in the first place. As a business owner myself I can tell you that I don't have a lot of time for high pressure sales and appreciate attention to detail which to me shows pride of ownership. Both Walter and Paul were very passionate about the business and lifestyle that evolves around the biking community. Thanks again guys for your assistance; we look forward to enjoying the new bikes! Much appreciated, Josh & Sam

I came by here today with my lovely old Raleigh DL Tourist bike and had it checked over while I…read morewalked around and shopped. Alot of people don't know how to fix these old three speeds and so I usually end up just doing the work myself but it's fun to let people look them over and check them out. I would definitely bring it back when one of their specialist bike guys was in for sure, tho, for a quick tune up. Bought some neat things, including a great MEC knapsack/open sack sort of bag that goes over your shoulders but is also open at the top. Anyway, it is a great idea and I stuffed all my purchases into it and heading back out on my bike. Way better than having odds and ends of bags hanging all over me. Because I read ahead, I knew that parking would be a bear and so I parked way across town and rode along the river into town. This is a neat store with really amazing bike and camping things, I was really impressed. And the prices are very reasonable. I like their ethos and their mission and being able to order online and have it shipped is also very cool. Canada is a great place and people are very friendly and polite, this neat store sort of reflects that for me - good quality things at good prices. The idea of a co-op is also awesome. You pay the membership ($5) and then you are a 'member,' since it is employee and customer owned. I don't know all the details of course - you will have to ask them for yourself !! : )

I'm an experienced cyclist who gets asked all the time by friends to help them buy a new bike…read more There's always so much to choose from, so many options, such a wide range of prices and quality... It's no wonder folks don't want to go it alone. But a few years ago I finally realized all I had to do was tell them to go to Olympia cycle on portage Avenue and they'll get taken care of. These guys just know what they're doing and they're definitely not out to screw anybody over. They'll do a great job of finding the right bike at a good price. A no-brainer. I've known these guys for years and they never let me down. Morgan and Scott are particularly excellent. I've purchased at least five bikes from them and had countless repairs done over the years and have no complaints.

Last year I had Olympia put Salomon Prolink Classic Access bindings on my skis. A few days ago,…read moreone of the bindings broke (I'd stay away from these bindings), causing a ski to fall off and a walk back to the car. I took it into Olympia. They said it was defective and couldn't be repaired. They also said that since I didn't have the receipt, and they had lost records of past sales, they could offer me only new bindings at full price (with free labour). I'd been going to Olympia since the late 90's, but never again. (I gather they have new owners. It doesn't seem the Olympia of Lindsay and Scot.)
