Shawn (?sp) was amazing and went the extra mile for us. We stopped by this afternoon in search of goggles that would fit my face (small bridge) and work in low light. He gave us some suggestions but told us we really should come back with my helmet for fit. We came back later to learn that he'd actually tried on a bunch while we were gone (not knowing if we'd come back) and found two pairs he thought would fit the best. And guess what? He was right. Perfect fit, great features and super helpful tips on care. Highly recommend checking them out. Great selection of helmets, goggles, hats, and all things winter too! read more

Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Breckenridge! My husband and I both rented an e-bike for 4 hours along with a trailer for our 18 month old. The e-bikes were great because they featured "pedal assist" so the rider can adjust how much (or any) power to add as you pedal from a scale of 0-5. We took the bikes to Frisco along the bike path which was well marked and then around the lake there and back. The views were GORGEOUS and the whole experience was so much fun. I would recommend to anyone traveling in Breckenridge! The shop was clean and smelled really nice. The girl who helped us Morgan gave us a quick but thorough tutorial of the bikes before we went and made the whole experience very easy for us. read more

Great experience renting from them! Guys were extremely helpful to group of 70 something's and made sure we were comfortable and well equipped to use bE bikes! Bikes were in excellent condition! read more

Last several helmets were here. I am so happy there is a place in Summit County to try on, and buy helmets. The last several times I've went, the staff has been great at helping me out. Online shopping for something as personal as a helmet is usually too many returns, time taken to do the returns, and the shipping prices associated with it. read more

Great service, quality bikes, and friendly staff. They were able to accommodate my family less than a day before when our whitewater rafting trip was cancelled last minute and we were scurrying to find an activity to replace it. I had never ridden an e-bike before, but the rep provided a helpful briefing beforehand and we were on our way soon after. For anyone who is more knowledgeable about bikes: They rented out Blix e-bikes for us, which were sturdy and comfortable. Be advised that these are pedal-assist (Class 1) bikes, which are allowed on the bike paths in and around Breckenridge as opposed to the throttle-assist counterparts. We took them downhill to Frisco, around the Dillon Reservoir, and back with over half the battery remaining, so they'll last you as long as you're willing to get your legs moving. Highly recommend to anyone who is in Breck and looking to explore the surrounding areas! read more

If you are looking for a one stop shop for just about every single GoPro accessory sold, this is your place! A lot of places I stopped at had maybe 5-15 GoPro items on the shelves, Craniologie had almost every accessory GoPro sells. After hunting at 5+ other stores, they had exactly what I was looking for. The customer service was on point, & I'd happily buy from them again. They focus on snow sport related helmets, goggles, gloves, beanies, & GoPro gear. See my photos for everything they offer. read more

I bought a Smith helmet from here a month ago. I went skiing today for the first time with it and turned out to be too tight after a few runs and the clutch fell apart. I'm an intermediate skier and I did not fall. I went to the store and the lady there was extremely rude. Told me because I "rode it on the mountain" there was nothing they could do even though I had my receipt. A few weeks later the owner reached out and was able to provide me a refund. She was very friendly and heard my situation out. Will definitely be coming back read more

Great service tonight ,Jack Thompson was exceptional really knowledgeable about all product, wasn't rushed.He was willing to show all the products and took his time explaining the pro and cons of each one. Left the shop with some awesome goggles and a very happy wife read more

Four of us rented e bikes to try for the first time from Chris. He was very friendly, helpful and patient with all of our questions and concerns. Helmets and bike locks are provided, as well as a small bag for water bottles, etc. on the front of the bike. The shop is easily located on Main Street with an area to "practice" behind the shop before taking off the bike path. Great place to try out an e bike! read more

MacKenzie is the goggle-whisperer! My current goggles were malfunctioning, making my snowboarding experience miserable. I live in Vail and this is not an option. MacKenzie listened to me, assessed my issues and was able to pin-pint the perfect solution for me. This is a total game changer. Their customer service is on the mark and without hesitation, this is where I will be going from now on for all of my goggles. Sincerest thanks! read more

They were good at selling you helmets , the helmets didn't fit my kids so I looked on the website and it said they closed at 8 so I called to verify and they said 6 so I walked 20mins and got there 10 till 6 and they said they were closing early. They had a room full of customers but yet he couldn't help. Now I'm stuck with $150 of helmets I can't use. David read more

Fantastic Customer service by the employees here. Chris was especially the man on multiple occasions and helped me with no issues and as soon as I walked in the store. read more

We rented 2 ebikes from Craniologie so we could see the fall colors. The bikes were like beach cruisers with comfie seats and handlebars that don't hurt your back or neck. We're in our late 50s and couldn't have been more pleased. It was our first ebike experience and we rode 50+ miles without even using up 1/2 of the battery's charge. The bikes comes with a helmet and bike lock. I called EVERY ebike rental place in Breck, and this one was the best. We only wanted to rent for 4 hours and they let us set what that 4 hour window was. Lovely day, lovely company. read more

I had such a great experience with Craniologie. Tall Joe was great to work with and I had so much fun on the electric bikes cruising around town. I highly recommend whether you are visiting town for a short while or you're a local. read more

Meh. Limited color selection. Sales person seemed to be making up the "sales" price.

Sadly this was the biggest bait and switch. I walked in and told the clerk that I had a son who will ski once a year so we do not need the most expensive helmet. He said he had helmets that ranged from $100-300. I said point me to the $100 helmets. He pointed to it. I asked if there were other colors. He said yes, I asked for black. When he rang me up (and the box was opened and the tags off) the price was $217. You can guess my shock. The store may be great but make sure you ask the price before you do anything. Beware of the bait and switch. read more

This place is service focused! Carlos met us immediately after we walked in. He quickly pointed out the helmets we were looking for and was very patient as we tried them on multiple times. His knowledge of the products is also strong - we ended up going with the model that has the better lens! Craniologie is a must stop if you're shopping for winter helmets/goggles/hats! read more

My husband brought a pair of Ray bans here last week. Chris was the best salesman...great sense of humor...he was the deciding factor for my husband to make the purchase. read more

We were looking at helmets and no one offered any assistance. Taking our business elsewhere.

My husband and I and another couple rented ebikes from Chris (an attentive and helpful guy) We loved it! Bikes were charged and ready to go. Chris gave us some OTJ training prior to letting us go. The place is right on bike path and we biked to Frisco. It was a blast. Head winds and grades just didn't bother us. We loved the experience. Chris welcomed us back and didn't charge for the extra 40 minutes. (We ate lunch in Frisco so took longer than 2 hours). Definitely will do again. I love bike riding but don't do it enough so 20 miles would have been a big trek without the bikes. read more

The team at Craniologie in Breck was great. Paul Chris and Joe were welcoming, friendly and very helpful getting our large group outfitted and ready to go. The bikes were a blast. Never would have made it back to Breck from Frisco without the electric boost! Highly recommend the Pedego bikes- they make biking the mountains accessible for everyone. read more

Great store with a huge selection of snow helmets to suit all budgets. There are some cool ones where the goggles are in built but it has a steep price ($550). Also an amazing selection of googles, beanies & helmets. And of course recording devices. read more

Great selection of helmets and humongous selection of goggles. The manager, Evan was very friendly, knowledgable and accommodating to make sure I was completely happy with my purchase. If you're in Breck and need a helmet or goggle gear or go pro whatever, I'd definitely recommend! read more

My wife and I tried the Pedego electric bikes from Craniology today. We were greeted by sales people who were both knowledgeable and really excited about their product. They carry a full line of accessories for the bikes, as well as helmets and a full line of Go Pro products. If you're looking for a great way to spend a couple of hours while in Breck you have to stop at Craniology and try an electric assist bike. They are amazing, and the folks at Craniology are there to make sure you have fun. read more

Went in Craniologie on opening day for breck 2014.... Needed a new lens for my oakley airbrake because the persimmon one that came with them might be the worst piece of ski equipment I have ever owned. This younger dude in there, I think his name was Evan, knew more about ski goggles and lenses than I could have ever imagined. Being a die hard ski gear junkie, even I was impressed. I bought the lens but not before he said "oh yea you get 10% off too". Pretty cool. I guess that's what happens when you get a good store not owned by the Vail machine! Definitely go to this place.

Awesome customer service. My head is right on the border of small and medium and I basically tried on the entire inventory of both sizes. When I found THE ONE we discovered it didn't fit with my goggles- bring your goggles! Zane replaced the lining with a beanie so my goggles could go in between and it was perfect! Suggested, but no pressure to buy new goggles too. but he did show me some great options that weren't around when I was in the market for a pair. Definitely know what I want the next time around and where I'm getting them! read more

Got a bike helmet here this summer. Awesome store, real helpful. Thanks Evan.

They definitively carry a large selection of helmets but I noticed that they frequently are low in regards to their inventory (size, color).

We rented Pedego electric bikes for the day, and it made our time in Breckenridge incredible and memorable. We were able to explore the entire area and great weather with ease and speed! They were easy to use and so much fun! The Craniologie staff was extremely helpful and made great suggestions for our trip. It was the best service experience we had in Breckenridge! read more

Finally a helmet-specific store where you can get great help, selection and knowledgeable sales staff! Great selection of glasses and goggles to combine with your head protection. Definitely worth stopping by when you are in breckenridge! read more

I went there to look at MIPS bike helmets, which is the latest in helmet technology. I was told that they only had a few--mainly the most expensive (over $200)--and that they only plan to carry the highest end MIPS helmets. Seemed a bit elitist to me since one can buy a decent, safe MIPS helmet for around $100. read more

We had a great experience at Craniologie. We were on a mission to purchase a helmet for our daughter who had cracked hers over the weekend skiing the chutes at Abasin. After stopping at two other shops in the county with no inventory and absolutely no customer service, we decided to check out Craniologie. We walked in and the sales associate immediately measured my daughter's head for the best fit. Then she asked us what we were looking for and narrowed down the choices for us. We found a comfortable helmet that worked great with my daughters goggles. They were having a deal on goggles/helmet package so purchased some goggles too. The sales associate was great explaining the benefits of the goggles. Overall happy with the customer service and choices, especially considering it is the end of the ski season. read more

Prices were as expected. Ended up spending more than I thought I would to get a better product. First employee was helpful but seemed more focused on another customer. Second employee was super helpful and she gave me a discount. read more
