I love this bike store. They are not local to me but I go there whenever I am in the area. They…read moreare extremely knowledgeable and they have "fun things" in the store that I usually do not see in my local bike store (e.g. an air horn for my bike or a crash kit in case of an accident this will automatically call for assistance). I really like going in there an just chatting with them and other customers. Several months ago I was speaking with a gentleman that builds those "frankenbikes" (as I like to call them) that had to be over 10 feet high. He even asked me if I wanted to try it. That would have been fun but explaining to the emergency room doctor what happened would have been a story in and of itself. Whenever I am in Salem (a few times a year) I make sure to visit them. If you are into cycling Jerseys you have to get one from them. I have a few different ones from them and whenever I ride wearing one people are always asking me about the Witch on a Bicycle on the back of my Salem Cycle Jersey. Salem Cycle Jerseys are some of my favorite Jerseys.

While I was there people stopped by with their bikes for repairs from fixing flats to tuneups. Please note that with the resurgence of interest in biking during the pandemic plus the wave of e-bike popularity, you must book a maintenance appointment online ahead of time. They are currently booked for 3 weeks! Clearly Marblehead/Salem Cycle are experts and well-loved by their clientele. They put me on a great new e-bike with little fuss and very reasonable timeframe. I knew what I wanted and they got it assembled it, and went over all the operational details with me. Couldn't ask for more! Thanks!

I don't know if the type of vacation (hiking and camping) helped to self select the people but by the end of the week we had gotten really close as a group. SUP YO also picked amazing guides. They were fun, funny, knowledgeable, and basically one of the gang with guide authority. The owner of the company came with us on this trip. She was fun, did everything we did, never put on any airs, and I felt like she was "one of us.". All of the food, hotel, etc was taken care of. We even celebrated a birthday for one one of the hikers in the group!

My 86 year old feet have been unhappy. Marathon Sports was recommended to me. I went to the…read moreSwampscott store soon after. I was impressed with the knowledge base regarding feet, stride, cushioning, gait, all of it. I was asked several questions pertinent to my walking and was asked to walk up and down the room under observation. Based on this data, I was presented with several pairs of shoes. The first pair I tried on were so comfortable that I decided to look no further. My shoes and I went for a trial walk on the Marblehead bike trail and returned to the car very happy with how my feet and legs felt. If I have any issues with the shoes, I can come back within a month and I will be offered another shoe. Customer satisfaction means everything to Marathon Sports. Sandra W.

I couldn't recommend this place more highly. This is everything you look for in a local bike shop - staff who are helpful, approachable, look to work with bike owners and enable them to do basic maintenance at home, while remaining available for the maintenance and repairs at the shop!!!! This is an absolutely stellar shop. Very few of these are still left, unfortunately.

I had my eye on a bike for a week or so, before deciding to go ahead and order it online on Monday…read more. Said "in stock" and available for pick up in Danvers Tuesday morning or seabrook Wednesday morning. (Danvers was closed Monday). I chose to pick up in seabrook Wednesday since we are in NH and couldn't get down to Danvers Tuesday anyway. My confirmation email said "ships from western cycle" to seabrook location. My receipt was from the Danvers location. I got a call Tuesday at 5:30pm from seabrook saying that they didn't have the bike I ordered in stock at either location. I explained what my confirmation email said and the very sympathetic employee from seabrook said he would call Danvers so see if they had put the bike aside without his knowledge. Danvers was already closed for the day so he offered to call and get back to me in the morning. 10:15 Wednesday I get a call from the owner, with a big attitude, telling me that they don't have the bike. Zero sympathy or compassion for me, the customer. He claims it was in seabrook and must have sold right before I ordered but doesn't know when. I was obviously upset, having ordered Monday and only finding out two days later that they sold me a bike they didn't have. The owner acted annoyed that he even had to call me and said "I don't know what to tell ya". He offered to cancel the order or order the bike (which would come in 7-10 business days), but we are leaving on vacation and needed a bike sooner. He said "sorry" like he was forced to, and was just overall not nice to me. I would recommend Buchika or Philbrick's for your bike needs. Philbricks went above and beyond and legit built a bike for us same day (normally a 2-4 day turn around) so we'd have it for vacation.

Most importantly, they know how to fix a mountain bike so it shifts and handles properly and try to do so in a short time frame.

For reference, I ride a good deal and have three bikes for different purposes, but I see myself squarely in the intermediate rider range. Great place!

Upon entering I was greeted by the two staff members with a pleasant hello and the question of how can we help you today? Meanwhile both of these guys were clearly in the middle of assembling/ servicing bikes but didn't seem to mind taking a minute to help me find what I was looking for. This was huge for me as i've been to other shops in the past and have had the opposite experience. One time the staff of another local shop couldn't be bothered to look up from whatever they were doing to assist me when I was literally there to buy a bike... a nice top of the line gravel bike I wanted for a long time..that experience left me so jaded I took my business elsewhere. Long story long that was not the case with these dudes, and after helping me find the helmet and peddles I needed I learned a bunch about the owner Jake and head mechanic Ed. Both of them local to the area - their stoke and knowledge of the neighboring trail systems was wonderful and they even hooked me up w/ a shop water bottle - I've got a zillion bottles but who doesn't love free swag?? Safe to say I left shop more stoked on riding than when I walked in and fully intend to shop here again in the future. Lastly, the aesthetics were modern and major bonus points for the sick grunge station they had on!
