They didn't charge me for anything they did and this is what happens every time I go there, very unlike the Independence store, they want to charge for everything, even just to check my tire. I love how you guys do business and will come visit you guys every time I need something! Anyone who is thinking about starting to get serious about biking, just go there and see for yourself, they don't make you feel stupid but instead make you feel very comfortable and are so helpful!! They will make you want to go for a ride. Thank you guys!! Ronie

It's a big store with loads of bikes for trail, gravel or road biking in every price range and the tune-up and repair work they do is top notch. There are bike shops closer to home, but Trek Bicycle Shawnee is worth a little longer drive. Special kudos to Grayson who recently fixed me up with some new carbon wheels and handled the warranty work on some others.

They said it's usually same day service, but they were very busy so it might not be ready until Monday. I told them no rush. It must have been just an hour or 2 and they called saying it was ready. We went back to pick up the bike and the owner helped us put it back in the car. Very reasonably priced! Amazing service! I would highly recommend this bike shop to everyone.

The…read morefirst time there were four people behind the counter eating and although no one else was in the shop, nobody even acknowledged that I was there. Someone finally came who was pretty uninterested in helping me as well. I don't remember what I needed that day, only that their rudeness or aloofness left a strong impression. Today I called because I had a set of tubeless tires that I had set up but I was unable to get the bead on the tire set without a compressor. I called and asked if they could help and they said yes, leave them overnight and for $25 per tire we will do it. I said no thanks because that seemed ridiculous to charge $25 to air up a tire. I even called back five minutes later to clarify that the tubeless tires were already set up, they just needed aired by a compressor. Yes, that's $25 per tire. I managed to get one tire seated with an adapter and the air compressor at Quick Trip but the other one wouldn't seat. I ended up in Olathe and stopped at Eriks bikes, took the wheel in and the mechanic said sure, but if it doesn't seat I'll have to check it in. It took him literally 15 seconds to pop air in the tire. He handed it back, no charge. I made sure to stop at the front counter and thank them and I also bought $45 worth of handlebar tape. I spend hundreds of dollars a year at my local bike shop. I lived in Arizona until last year. what I asked for was not some extravagant, free service. This is something that any local bike shop, and I've lived in several areas of the country, just does. It's literally putting air in a tire. Southward thinks if they have something you need, whatever it is, that you should be able to take you for whatever they would like. Never again.

What struck me first was the color coded sections, which I actually like because I'm picky. So I went to my preferred color choice and started combing the racks to see what they had to offer. Lots of jersey cotton designed into pretty, fitted tees and dresses. More modern selection of jackets and tights. They cross the line on some items, but they do call themselves "eccentric" so cowboy boots with plaid and fringe are A-Ok with them. They also experiment with animal prints (something that I've never gotten), and really colorful accessories (I mean, REALLY colorful stuff that might even make a gay man cringe). But overall, they displayed a nice selection of women's clothing that was eclectic and accessible to most. I also dug their jewelry section because it was a little different than most, focusing on chunky chains and big pendants. They didn't look cheap (well, they weren't cheap) but affordable and vintage looking.

Can't speak for the fly fishing part, and quite frankly, you'd need to get on an airplane and make probably more than one flight to get to a suitable location to engage in that as far as I'm aware. But this I can confirm: they make an exceptional cup of coffee here, particularly their house brew which uses Messenger Coffee out of Kansas City. Perfectly stout, no bitterness, exceptional finish, one of the best I've had in the city in awhile. But what really sets them apart is the friendly service from the owners, the kind that can't be faked. A few nice tables in the middle of the shop for hanging out and free wireless internet service is available. With Alchemy shuttering their doors across the street, Great Blue Heron fits the bill very nicely in this area of Mass Street. Very highly recommended.
