Stopped in recently looking for parts for my Granddaughter's bicycle and I was quite surprised as to how dismissive the employee treated me based on what I feel was simple needs and not to their standard(s) of customer(s) culture of bicycling. I found a quite simple Bike shop down the street and was treated like a Life Long Customer! Won't return or recommend! read more

This shop is professional and honest. They did a basic repair on my bicycle that I've owned for over 20 years and weren't trying to rip me off. That is a rare thing when a company would rather help and save you on unnecessary repairs or tries to upsell you. In fact, I brought my husband's bicycle in and his was recommended to be replaced but only because of issues we knew already were an issue. These gentlemen are here to help. They will show you what's wrong and be kind. read more

I had a mixed experience with Ray's Cycle. The quality of the work itself was fine once everything was completed, so no complaints there. However, the process to get there was extremely frustrating. My bike was in the shop for over two weeks for what should have been a simple tune-up. I kept being told the needed part was ordered or on the way, but it never seemed to arrive. Communication was poor--I had to repeatedly call just to get updates on the status. Ultimately, I ended up finding and purchasing the part myself. Once I brought it in, they had the bike ready within a day. That tells me the delay could have been avoided. It also seemed like the mechanic was frustrated due to not receiving parts, and only after significant delay did management step in to try to expedite things--something that could have been done much earlier. In short: the workmanship was good, but the turnaround time, communication, and parts management need serious improvement. If they can fix that side of their operation, the overall experience would be much better. read more

They have nice bikes but not the most freindly in my experiance and ive bought a couple expensive bikes here just feel unwanted not saying it will be anyone elses experience but its been mine over two decades everytime i go in there there just like im bothering them read more

I grew up in Vacaville in the mid 60 s. I would pass by this shop around the seventies walking to my friends house across town. One day there was a mongoose bike in the window. I told my mom about it and she surprise me with it on her birthday. I think I was 11 years old. I have been purchasing stuff from the shop since it's a great family owned company. read more

Excellent service. Refreshing. On point. Special thanks to the young tech in the back that stopped working to help me find the right cleats for my clip INS. Well done Rays!! read more

Courteous, friendly and knowledgeable staff and service. Highly recommend . Thank you

Ray's Cycle closed down. The store is completely empty. So sad. We used to buy our kids bikes here.

This was probably the best shopping experience I had looking for my bike. The gentleman that helped, I forgot his name (sorry!), was extremely helpful. Middle aged man with glasses and the ponytail. Although, ultimately I didn't end up buying it from here, he was able to lead me in the right direction and find the one bike I was looking for: An all carbon Specialized Sirrus. He was able to tell me to try the first store that had it in stock (boo Ken's Bike in Davis). Sadly, they told me that it wasn't built and would take 5-6 days to build it, despite someone else telling me it was, so I drove there, but I'll leave that experience for another review. I ended up finding what I wanted at Mike's Bikes in Walnut Creek. So again, thank you, Ray's Cycle. I'll be coming to you for all my maintenance needs. read more

Honest and friendly staff. Brad of schedule and patient with my kids as I have them with me to run errands. Denotes going back. Also, they know their stuff. read more

Steve helped me get some new pedals and toe cages for my bike and was very helpful. He assured me that if it didn't work I could bring it back in. Luckily, it did, but I'm so thankful for the nice staff and great selection they had. I will definitely be back! read more

I went to Rays to look at e-Bikes. I found the selection limited and they did not offer to ket me test ride one. I was a little put off. I went down the street and was pleasantly surprised to find a new e-bike shop with tuns of bikes to test drive. I purchased a Bull suburban that day. Sorry Ray ! read more

I went into Ray's Cycle to purchase a bike and had an experience of a lifetime. I was privileged to meet the owner, Ray! He assessed my concerns and needs and directed me to a bike that was most suitable as well as within my price point (must say, I was in the store once before and had been prepped for the purchase by another employee; based on information provided). He/Ray has a significant wealth and breadth of knowledge which extends beyond selling bikes/making monetary transactions. Please go talk with him. Also, all other sales rep, and technicians were knowledgeable and helpful. The lovingkindness that I experienced wasn't limited to my experience with Ray; for which I'm thankful to: Steve x2 , Frank, Phil and the rest of the gang. They were professional and kind. They are well trained with extensive knowledge regarding biking/bikes. I highly recommend this store. P.S. I named my bike Ray, I'll post pictures with the name after I receive the decals/birth certificate. read more

For someone who didn't know anything about bikes nowadays, they were a lifesaver! Very knowledgeable and great customer service. Supporting local and walking out with the bike 100% assembled is worth more than any on-line sale. read more

Never gave me my owners packet or paperwork for a $2,700 Trek bike I purchased from them. Asked them to mail it to me since I live in Sacramneto, they never sent it.... Poor customer service! read more

What a great place to buy a bike! My husband and I had been looking for a bike for a while. We were stuck between a hybrid bike and an Electra Townie. We started off at the bike shops in Davis. We figured with the students and others there would be a huge selection at all price points. Well, we just couldn't nail down what was right. It was like the Goldilocks of bikes for both of us. Too soft, too expensive, didn't like the gears, hurt my shoulder, hurt his back. We live in Winters, so next up was Vacaville. I honestly almost did not try Ray's because of some of the reviews. So glad I decided the disgruntled people were bitter and went to the shop... They were gracious, knowledgeable, kind, patient, enthusiastic... did I mention patient? We tried about six bikes between us, some several times, and we just kept adjusting and riding, and questioning, and figuring it all out with their help. We picked out two Specialized hybrids and got a bunch of accessories. Their customer service and sales style was direct, fair, and appreciated. My husband and I are just two middle aged people off the street. We are not biking fanatics, we don't commute, we don't race, and we will probably only ride from home to the Buckhorn for the majority of our ride time. The prices were great. So, don't listen too much to the negative people. Ray's is great. We are so happy we found them. It was a fantastic experience. read more

Ray's Cycle - My adult bike that makes me feel like I'm 12. So much fun! Thanks for the help everyone!!! - Bikes Near Me - Vacaville, California

I was a third into a 90 mile fundraiser ride when my spoke broke on the top of Cantelow. SAG brought me to Ray's (the nearest shop). When I walked in they told me there was a 4 week wait... I explained to them I was on a ride and the owner Phil took care of me right away. I was back on on my bike meeting up with my friends before the next big hill (Cardiac). I would DEFINITELY recommend Ray's!!! read more

The folks at Ray's Cycles totally came through in a pinch. I had an event down the street and I needed 4 huge beach balls blown up. Colin happily filled all 4, and saved me from passing out. If they were this helpful and friendly with me, imagine how awesome they will be when you come here to buy a bike!!!!! Thanks Ray, you and your employees are the goods....cheers!!! read more

My husband got a bike from them a couple of months ago and we were really happy with the customer service. They were able to help us get a bike that worked best for him, and when we needed maintenance on it they were able to give us a great price. Thank you Ray's Cycle! read more

Knowledgeable staff. Friendly. Flexible. Reasonable prices. Willing to drop everything and attend to you.

Quality service, very knowledgable plus they are locally owned and operated. I've used Ray's cycle a few times in the past for repairs and also purchased a bike from them in the past. They are down to earth and always willing to answer any and all questions. read more

A couple months ago I took 2 old bikes to Rays Cycle (wanting to keep money local) and was turned away. Yes, I know my husbands bikes are at least 15 years old but they were once worth something. The guy who met me at the door pretty much turned his nose up at them and was told I was better off buying new bikes. Well, not everyone can afford to sink a couple thousand into new bikes right now. I turned around and took my business to Dixon where I was pleasantly surprised to be greeted with such friendliness and the owner got the bikes done in less than a week compared to almost a month that was quoted at Ray's. I would not recommend Ray's cycle to anyone. read more

I dropped off my 25(+) GT Talera at Ray's Cycle, and I was told it would cost me $90. On Saturday I received a telephone call telling me it was going to be more, the gentleman told me I needed new levelers and shifters. Then he went on to say $200 and discount on parts, and I would get 10% off. I'm thinking 10% on $200 or it had already been adjusted. Nevertheless, when I arrived, I was told my bill was $268. I was pissed because I never was told full price. Phil heard the conversation, and instructed staff to adjust price more. Phil went on to say bring bike back for additional adjustments within 30 days. He also said, the bike is excellent condition. Well, Phil was right, even though I paid lot more, it was worthy it. read more

Even attached some things I had on the bike properly since I had not free of charge. Take your bike here. I will be back when needed read more

This Company probably was great at one time. Fast forward 2019.,,, poor customer service, coupled with a sales staff lead by a Pompous "Ego" centric sales person leads to a very poor customer experience. Bringing your expensive Road Bike in for regular maintenance, being told you need a $3900 upgrade because Rays doesn't work on your Bike...., WTH. Took my road bike to another local repair shop in Concord/Walnut Creek great customer service and they tuned my bike too perfection! Rays time is up! read more

Just got my new bike from Rays Cycle and I couldn't be more pleased with the customer service and my bike. Justin saw me peaking through the window gave me a brief description on different types of bikes pointed out one that may be good for me and I bought it. He then offered to bring the bike to me since I couldn't fit it in my car. Thanks Justin!!! read more
