They were a solid pair from a road bicycle that appear to have a sealed bearing, which is quality for certain. He also gave me some tips for a long bike tour that I was about to undertake. He was very honest and candid with me and didn't try to sell me anything that I didn't need, even though I asked him specifically what he would recommend to me. He mentioned the shop is largely for the community and is a charity of sorts. When I was there they had an open bike repair center - where you are free to use the tools they have to fix your bicycle. There were a number of children there taking advantage of this free service offered. A great place to stop by if you are on a tour and could use some parts/components cheap, need to use the tools or gain some insight from the workers there.

These guys were incredible! Knowledgeable and kind and set my whole family up with great bikes!!read more

I recently picked up a new Aventon Level 3 ebike from Black Rock Bicycles, and the whole experience…read moreleft me genuinely impressed. Curtis treated me like someone whose time and questions truly mattered. He listened to what I needed, asked thoughtful follow‑ups, and never once tried to upsell me into something that didn't fit my needs or style. Curtis knew the details of this bike without ever sounding rehearsed. He kept me apprised of the bike's progress, build, and readiness. At pickup, he walked me through an orientation and maintenance tips that were actually useful and never made me feel rushed. Pricing felt fair, and the post‑sale service was just as good. Curtis tuned the bike before I left, double‑checked the fit, and encouraged me to come back for complimentary adjustments after a few rides. If you're looking for a place that combines expertise, friendliness, and genuine enthusiasm for cycling, Black Rock Bicycles deserves your business. I left with a bike I love and the confidence that I can rely on them for anything I need down the road.

I'm a frequent shopper.. Purchased some Hoka's back in November- but one side started ripping - so I returned and purchased another On shoes.. Surprisingly they did not fit.. (yet I have four pairs that are the same size and fit).. go figure- Returned them and started browsing in store.. Just my luck- found a nice On pair- I like these because it's really not messy on the upper.. Noticed an email on the Rei app about the new On Cloudsurfer 2 trail running-.. Wow- those are ones I just got..! Comfy and decided to wear them today..

This is up where Bonanza is and I live down in South Reno. Silly me, I know. Results, they didn't call me when they have finished. I had to call them and it was nearly late afternoon when I had dropped it off early because they said they can finish it early. My stepson was eager to get his bike back. All I wanted was to be informed that it was done, that's all. Pricing itself was pretty fair. They changed his tires into a dirt tire which was awesome so now he has hybrid tires! Even tough it's a kid bike, labor counts so Thankyou for the awesome job! The owner is really friendly and his staffs too. (During this time, all wore their masks. That's always a plus.)

They also give bikes to children through local agencies and businesses. I've purchased a few bikes from them in the past and been quite happy. The staff are friendly. Their is a noticeable difference in knowledge between the trainers and the trainees. What I noticed this trip was that a lot of the bikes seemed overpriced. For instance, there was a used bike for $120 that I could buy new at Walmart for $140 (plus tax). I don't know what changed but it didn't feel like a good deal to buy a bike there any longer. Perhaps the Bike Swap is a good option.
