This is one of the best bike shops in Southern California! No joke. I was awarded a rebate as part of the 2025 California E-Bike Incentive that I could use towards a new qualifying ebike. I used to work near this shop and always heard great things from customers (it's also been a local favorite in Burbank for over 20 years), so when I qualified for the Incentive Program I immediately went here to check out the available models. I have 3 broken disks in my neck and I'm in constant pain. Mobility is an issue as well. Regular bike seats put too much pressure on my spine so I was looking for something a bit different. The employees here are friendly, patient, and were incredibly knowledgeable. Not just about all the bikes but also the Incentive Program itself, which really blew me away. They had done extensive research into the qualifying models and eligibility requirements. Well I fell in love with 101 Bike's "Seaside". It had powerful throttle assist, which I definitely needed living in the hilled community of Sunland, and it had an amazing esthetic design that was more akin to a Harley motorcycle than a bicycle. Sturdy frame, wide seating, and it even had huge Kenda fat tires! This thing was a beast and I decided immediately it was my new e-bike. Only one problem. Despite meeting all criteria and requirements for inclusion in the program, it was not on the list of eligible bikes. I reached out to the Regional Manager of 101 Bikes, Pete (through Instagram) and he was puzzled as well since they had submitted all the proper documentation months prior. He was kind enough to reach out to Stott's Bikes and spoke with the manager David, who literally went above and beyond to gather the documents and submitted them to the California E-Bike Incentive Team. I didn't have high hopes of any traction on this and was a bit dismayed. David kept in constant contact with me, even calling when there was no updates just to let me know he was still on top of it. Amazingly enough, within 48 hours of David submitting the necessary documents, the Seaside had been added to the roster list of eligible e-bikes! I simply couldn't believe it until I was finally home with my new ride. I really have to say that the incredible level of customer service exhibited by Rob, the owner of Stott's Bikes, and especially his manager David, went far beyond anything I've ever experienced before. These guys really care about their customers. It was more than just making a sale because they easily could've tried upselling me on another model or just settling for something on the list, but they demonstrated why Stott's has such an amazing reputation in the bike community of Southern California. I can't praise David and his team enough. Even if you're not in the market for a new bike, you owe it to yourself to stop in and see what they have. It's a fantastic shop and one that I hope remains a pilar of the Burbank/Valley community for many generations to come. Thank you so much! read more
