    We purchased our recumbent trikes there in 2013 and are still having the time of our lives riding 4-5k per year.

    I took my Poseidon Redwood here to be built from the box. I also wanted them to install my…read moretubeless tires, compression-less brake housings, and new bar tape. I brought all the parts necessary. I received several calls telling me that the rim tape I got was not the correct width (which they were proven wrong) and that my brake housings would be inferior to the ones that were on the bike, again proven wrong after installation. But the real rub is the poor quality of the bar tape wrap (see photos). I spoke to John, who told me to bring the bike back in; however, based on my experiences, I am not confident they know what they are doing. I'm trying to get a refund on my credit card for the poor taping while working with the credit card company. I will never return to Natomas Bike Shop and would never recommend them.

I asked about a tune up and she immediately said "We can't do it until mid August" which isn't a problem for me, I'm not in any rush. I said I was hoping someone could just take a look at tell me what it needs, since there's different levels of tuneups, she said "so you just want to leave it here and we can call you?" I said when would that be, she said "I don't know" I told her they seemed like they were really busy, she said "Yes, we are" I told her I would take it somewhere else that could accommodate. The reason for the one star is the complete lack of customer service.

    Very clean and organized store. The layout is easy to follow. The athletic clothing is located in…read morethe front, and the adult bikes and accessories are located in the middle and the back. The kids' bikes are in the back right corner. Everything looks really nice and seems to be good quality. The service was excellent. All my questions were answered and they had my cruiser ready within 30 minutes. The parking lot is free to park in. The shop is wheelchair accessible. They have stairs and a ramp at the entrance, along with automatic doors. You can walk around the city while you're waiting for your bike. There's several cafes and restaurants within 5-10 minute walking distance. You could visit the State Capitol. Forewarning: You're going to pay, at minimum, $600 for an adult bike. Even a kid's bike starts at $350... If you need extra parts and accessories, I would recommend you buy them off of Amazon or somewhere cheaper. To give you an example: a tire pump here is over $100.

    I'd say this is a bike store for the experienced pro bike rider. The store has plenty of options to…read morechoose from and such an amazing showroom. My hubby and I are not experienced or race at all but we still got a great deal on a base line bicycle which is perfect for our daily exercise ride. The employees were knowledgable and very helpful. I love the fact that they do repairs in house and it's in the midtown area so you can always drop off and walk around until your bike is ready for pick up.

    I'm new to cycling and have a budget bike (bought from Walmart) and so naturally, if something…read morefeels off, I'm no expert on the subject. During my lunch, I've been taking my bike to various bike shops around the midtown Sacramento area to browse around and ask general cycling questions or assistance with my bike if I feel like something doesn't feel right. Overall, my experience with various shops have been just okay. I would get the feeling that because I do not have an expensive bike, that I'm looked at differently. However, with Pacos, the staff here are EXTREMELY friendly and helpful. I brought my bike in with some concerns regarding my gears shifting, and Pancho took my bike onto the rack to inspect it. I was prepared to be given a diagnosis and perhaps a quote to see how much they would charge if I had them fix/adjust it for me. Instead, Pancho just took it upon himself to make these micro adjustments himself and even identified that my front derailleur was crooked and my front wheel was loose. Again, Pancho just made those adjustments himself to make sure everything was properly before I left the store. On top of that, I was not charged a dime. Totally unexpected, but highly appreciated! Fast forward to my second time coming to this shop, I was greeted by different staff. Yet, it was still the same high, friendly energy as the last time. Ayrton was there to assist and help me identify and issue I was having with my brakes. The way he spoke to me and went above and beyond to find answers he himself didn't know was much appreciated. Ayrton is a very friendly and outgoing guy and made sure I was taken care of before I left. The culture and energy of the staff here have been a fantastic experience and I highly recommend any cyclist to visit this store! Their inventory was impressive, the store is spacious and clean, and if I ever need cycling services, I am definitely coming back.

    Incredible service! Came in an hour until closing, Irie (sp?) helped me out right away and they…read morereplaced my bike tire in less than thirty minutes for less than thirty bucks. Such smooth service and well priced, too!

    I've recently been riding a bike that was passed down to me. It's an 80's road bike. Its my first…read moretime riding a bike since my old BMX bike from my middle school days. I'm in my 20s now and know absolutely zilch about bikes. My chain snapped and I brought it into the bike kitchen. I paid $10 cash for the shop fee and immediately a volunteer helped me mount up my bike and get to work. He was so welcoming and fun to work with. We evaluated whether or not my chain was salvageable, and decided we should take a few links from a chain in the back, and add it to mine. It was only $3, and from there he taught me everything about repairing a chain. He was so nice and helpful, I used the tools and he kept watch to make sure I was doing it right. Sometimes that can be stressful, but he made sure it was a fun environment and we laughed almost the whole time. I could not recommend this place more. For them, its really just about the bikes. It felt amazing to fix it myself, and learn something about my bicycle. The volunteer also helped inspect my bike to make sure nothing else needed fixing. He explained it like, "you already paid the shop fee, lets see what else we can do". I hope I learn enough to volunteer here one day. Truly a 10/10 experience.

    Really cool nonprofit organization supporting the Sacramento community through cycling!…read more They'll help fix your bike and teach you how to do it yourself for only $10. For kids up to 17 years old, bikes are free. A lot of low income or immigrants families benefit from this offering. Every second Saturday of the month, they host open bar nights with live music: check out their website for the artist lineup! One of their workshops was even a Bike Jewelry Workshop where people made jewelry from bike parts. SBK is focused on making cycling affordable and accessible while teaching bike maintenance and safety classes to help people become more independent riders. Besides the bike shop, they also do community outreach projects and are always looking for volunteers if you're interested in helping out!
