Being a multiple bike owner, I've been into the store many times over the past few months. Kory is particularly conscientious about his awareness of my need to be consistently rolling on my bikes. Whenever I need something done, he consistently gets me back on the road with same-day service. He is also very consistently providing me with advice and direction. I have questions about bikes. For only having two people on duty right now at this shop they're doing an outstanding job.

First thing to know about Papa Wheelies is that they straddle the line between "Cycling Shop" and…read more"Bike Store", meaning that these are people who take the sport seriously as enthusiasts, but not exclusively for the "serious cyclist type". This store appeals to both demographics, although the "everyday commuter" type might find the bicycles in stock to be on the pricey side. I do not fault the store, but instead greater consumer trends within the industry. The service is generally good and reliable, however certain times of the year service will be backed up (summer holidays).

This may be lengthy but it's well deserved. I've purchased e-bikes online (direct purchase from…read moremanufacturer) but was never satisfied and when issues arose, ex.: the bike stopped working with 164 miles on it, that company didn't want to cover it. I decided to shop local instead and after a lot of research, I thought that it would be worth my while paying a visit to Seacoast e-Bikes. Wow!! Am I glad I did. The lady that assisted me was not only very knowledgeable but extremely patient and made sure that my questions were answered. She pulled no less than a half dozen bikes for me to try and seemed vested in making sure that I had the right bike with the right fit. She wasn't pushy or even tried to oversell. You could see that she had my interest, just like if she was the customer. The service didn't stop there. After picking my bike, they made sure that it was well adjusted and road worthy. The owner even checked up on me to see if everything was in order. While waiting for my bike to be ready, I also witnessed how returning customers were treated ... It reassured me that I made the right choice. We have another bike to buy for this upcoming season, and we are heading to Seacoast e-Bikes without even looking at other dealerships because they do customer service the old fashion way. BTW, I am not affiliated with the shop, the owner(s) or the staff. I was not paid nor even asked to write this review. I am just a VERY Satisfied customer.

I have put over 400 miles on it and it's going strong. I bought the bike from a dealer, Seacoast e-Bikes, because it is a fairly complex piece of machinery which requires some amount of care and feeding. Just about the time the bike was ready for its' tuneup (free at Seacoast), I got a flat tire. The flat was in the rear wheel with all sorts of connections to the chain, motor, gears etc. I dropped the bike off at Seacoast and the fixe the flat, and did the tuneup for a total of $50. If I had bought the bike via mail order I would have paid a lot more. They even dropped the bike off at my house free of cost. Shane, Frank and Steve and the rest of the staff really care about their customers, and know bike maintenance and repair cold. There is no reason to buy an e-bike mail order, because sooner or later it will need service and maintenance. If I could give 10 stars on this review I would. s

When I contacted Ethan at Wildfire HPV, I was looking for my first bike. I had never been able to…read moresuccessfully ride a bike even as a kid. Growing up in the country, I had always wanted to ride a bike to be able to get around with my friends. However, whenever I tried, I ended up falling over and injuring myself. My parents had taught my three older siblings to ride without a problem, so once I got to be about 12 and still couldn't ride, they figured I was just clumsy and unathletic and I gave up trying. Fast forward to 20 years later, and a set of circumstances led to a diagnosis of an inner ear problem that impacts my fine balance. Once I knew that not being able to ride a bike was not due to a lack of innate ability, just an inability to balance, I started looking into recumbent trikes, which would eliminate the need for me to try to balance. I ultimately found my way to Wildfire HPV's website. This was a big purchase, and a big leap, for someone who couldn't even be sure if I would really like cycling. Ethan was very patient and accommodating as I tried a number of models he had available and tried to figure out what would best suit my needs. I wanted to be sure to get something that was good for a beginner, but also had the possibility for me to grow into it ability-wise, and also could fold to fit in the trunk of my sedan. He was helpful when I was trying to think of which additional accessories would make sense for me to get right at the outset. He has even helped me multiple times since, installing and even custom making some parts that I ended up needing as I began to ride more and more. Now, I am an honest-to-goodness cyclist. My current record is 77.07 miles in a single day (that's a lot of pedalling on such small wheels), and I've gotten into bikepacking/bike touring. I'm now doing things I'd always dreamed of, but didn't think were possible for me until I bought my Greenspeed GT-1 through Wildfire HPV and started riding. Ethan is knowledgeable about recumbents and trikes, and is well-connected to people and resources. He hosts an annual rally for cyclists, both for previous customers and for the general public, which is a great opportunity to see and test ride a wide variety of unusual bikes, meet the folks riding them, and take in a gorgeous ride. It has been great to get to know others riding similar bikes and get together for other rides occasionally so that I don't feel like I'm the only one riding an unusual bike. I can't thank Ethan and WIldfire HPV enough for helping me with my purchase and beyond!

Oh right, price: didn't shop here if you just need a quick pair of Skechers... Their inventory is higher quality.

It is the best service you will ever find. They will keep bringing shoes in your size that you might like and you may be surprised with which ones you fall in love with. I love that they are curated from around the world, including Spain, Portugal, Germany, Italy, and Australia. Very unique. All very high-quality and well-made, and most extremely comfortable, which is one of the main things I look for in a shoe these days. They also have some beautiful leather purses. My husband has several pairs of shoes from here too. Absolutely recommend, and intend to stop in on every visit to Kennebunkport! As an added bonus, they also do free shipping and/or tax, which is super convenient. This time we came with four of us, including our friends, Doug and Aviva, who are locals, and bought 10 pairs. They were even all on special, which is a rare occurrence. Again, had them shipped, which was great. Do yourself a favor and check it out!
