I needed a tube changed, and they got this done in 5 minutes and at a very competitive price. I'll be coming back here for my next flat tire and other repairs and maintenance. read more

Was referred to this shop for a good place to go for a bike fitting. Stopped by on a busy Saturday, Jordan was very helpful reviewing saddle options and sharing his expertise on the latest in helmet options. Called back on Monday to schedule time with Leon for the fitting, said come on by same day! Leon spent a good hour not only helping with saddle, shoe and bike adjustments but even providing me a spare tool for my bike rack. Customer service at its finest! I would have spent more on a saddle, but Leon recommended my trying a lower priced version first, ride it and come back in a couple of weeks if it doesn't work. I have a Specialized bike and this shop specializes in the brand. Great experience! I am a big fan! read more

I've only used this place for servicing my bicycle, but they are absolutely phenomenal! They are quick, affordable, friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. They keep my bike and me very happy, I couldn't ask for more! read more

Went in today for an introductory meet, not looking to buy but more over, go over the basics and requirements. I'm a first time road biker and wanted to get educated thoroughly before I throw down a large sum. Had a female rep start off to help me. I advised of my budget, level of ride, goals, etc. Leon stated to show me a 56 Specialized. Showed me a $5800 bike, could not put on the pedals. Took the bike to the front, Leon, more knowledgeable, stated it was another bike, used and minor scratches, put the pedals on, took some measurements, pumped air into the tires and told me to take a test. The bike was great, but I would rather have a new bike and something at my level of ride. Returned the bike and was told by Leon that he would sell it to me for $2K. Left the place. Had my eye on a 56 Specialized Matte Black for $800. Not going back. Felt as if I was being taken. Second chances? Lets see if anyone from Sierra Cyclesmith takes a look at my review and calls me back. read more

Great shop, very accomodating. I test rode a bike the other day. They took the time to set up the full suspension bike to my weight, and check the tire pressure. All of this for a 1 minute parking lot ride. Great staff. I just purchased a $2,500 bike from Reno based Peloton Bicycles. Nice shop, but the customer service was no where near the quality of Sierra Cyclesmith. read more

By far the best (electric) ebike shop I have found - I have been researching and visiting shops all over Reno Tahoe and the Bay Area - most shops don't have ebikes in stock but these guys have them in stock ready to test - the staff let me test the Specialized Levo - after trying all the brands and talking to riders who ride ebikes I found most agree the Specialized are the best - I'm enjoying my Levo FSR they sold me and the staff is very generous with their time in always helping me fine tune my setup - this shop is different than the others in the area as they have a lot of accessories and new stuff always in stock. read more

Went in with a friend for him to get a new saddle and the bike mechanic (J. Smooth) looked at my pedals because the bearings were squeaking a little bit. Great customer service and very helpful! I will for sure be going back! read more

Needed to prep my bike for a move to TN so took it to Sierra to have the derailleurs cleaned, expecting to leave the bike for a few days. Was very pleasantly surprised when they looked at the bike, saw it was pretty clean and promptly did what was required. The shop is well stocked with inventory, organized, clean and has a great business vibe. It is apparent they know what they are doing. Highly recommend. read more

year ago, my wife and I were looking for a new hobby. Being that we passed Sierra Cyclesmith many times a week, we thought about bicycling. We stopped in and were helped by a young man named Tim. He was extremely helpful answering all our questions. We bought two bikes and enjoyed them immensely . However, we then heard about e-bikes and realized we wanted them Back to Sierra Cyclesmith we went. There we were once again greeted by Tim. This time the service was even better as our questions were numerous. Not only did we get the perfect bikes, but Tim even delivered them and went for a test ride with us. Thus, I highland recommend Sierra Cyclesmith for whatever bike you need. read more

Sierra cyclesmith is located at 7007 outh virginia street right next to used computer warehouse. First of, the people that work in here are awesome. Very helpful and knowledgeable on bikes. The store is crammed full of bikes and parts,they surely will have what you need. The only reason i gave them 4 stars was they did not cheeck to see if my clip ins fit the pedals, they didn't. So i had to buy another set of pedals and make another trip down there. Other than that great customer service read more

Sierra Cyclesmith - Bikes Near Me - Reno, Nevada

These guys are great! Brought in an old Mountain bike that I was given and had begun to fix up which unfortunately despite what I'd already repaired, needed brake repairs that I knew little about (old school disc brakes/missing disk). Coulda replaced the disk myself, but was unsure about the rest after many years of "clamp" style brakes (how to adjust or replace pads, etc). Needless to say, they squeezed me into a busy schedule, repaired the inherited damage and I was on my way. Courtesy is always free, but unfortunately becoming increasingly rare. Nice to have seen it on display!! Kudos and gracias from the "Burner and 1/2"................... Pete read more

I cane in recently looking for a pair of basic pelotón compatible shoes and not only did they have pairs in my size unlike many other stores in the area but they were super nice in explaining the fit concerns for cycling shoes. Shoutout to Tim for his patience and great customer service. read more

I will not return to this shop. When it was all said and done I paid $250 for a back wheel.. I mean $250?? Seriously? When I purchased the part I was told to pay half then when I pick up my bike I can pay the remainder (which was suppose to be $180 total). When I returned today they told me I owed another $160 more than the $90 I already put down. I asked for no other services yet they charged me for a brake part and a fee for bleeding my back disc. (An additional $65 dollars). What kind of operation is this guys? I like to shop local, but I'll take my business elsewhere. Unless contacted back with answers. read more

Ben and the staff are great. Gave me a great deal on a bike and provided me a lot information. Thanks read more

I took my bike's front wheel in to see about replacing the ball bearings because the hub had gotten loose, and it looked to me like the bearings were all loose in there and that the whole thing might be shot. The mechanic took a quick look at it, said he thought the bearings were probably fine and just needed some slight adjustment and re-tightening, and then took care of it right away. Within 10 minutes, he gave the wheel back to me with a smile, and when I asked how much I owed just waved me off. read more

This place is the best! I haven't been into the shop for quite a while. I needed to get a a part to adjust the fit of my bike. With the Covid-19 restrictions, I was asked to make an appointment and was in and out very quickly. Leon made sure that everything was perfect before I rolled out the door. You can't do better that that! read more

I had a bike fitting and had an excellent experience. Leon was super knowledgeable. Great service. Thanks!

Thank you so much, Jordan, for your exceptional service! I had a bulge in my tire, drove up and Jordan came right over to help me get my bike out of the car and he said give me five minutes. He took care of it quickly and efficiently. I am ready for the trail again! Great service! read more

This bike shop is the perfect example of how a bike shop should be...the staff is friendly, knowledgable and helpful without being pushy or condescending. We recently ordered 2 bikes and we could have easily been labeled demanding customers! Not only were the bikes ordered and built, but the shop had all the gear and accessories we wanted. Furthermore, we brought in an older bike they just never fit well and after a visit, was dialed in perfectly comfortable. I highly recommend this shop!!! read more

Bought a great mountain bike and Ben has taken the time to teach how it works and how to keep up with the Maintance on it. 5 star customer service and will recommend you to support a local shop you won't regret it! read more

Jordan B. Is the best! We have had him help us twice. We even came back to him after stopping at two other places which were just rude to us. He is fast, fixed my son's bike on the spot! He is very knowledgeable and super nice! Thanks Jordan! We know where we will take our bikes from now on! read more

Hands down the best bike shop in town. These people are so courteous. As I was waiting for them to fix my tire every single employee that walked in or out made sure I had been helped. This is the 3rd time I have been there. Every single time they have gone above and beyond to get me on the road. I don't remember the names of the last two guys that helped me but they were awesome! Ashley is who helped me today and of course very helpful and got my bike taken care of. I will exclusively shop here for all of my bike needs going forward. Bravo Sierra Cyclesmith Bravo! Thanks again!! read more

I went to the shop the other day and I could not be more impressed with the level of customer service I received. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this shop!!!! read more

Jordan specifically recognized myself as an industry professional and treated me with close regard. His knowledge, and ergo his staff's knowledge, were indispensable in selecting tires and having my chain repaired when I was too busy myself. Thank you to Sierra Cyclesmith, I will be back again. read more

Had picked up a mountain bike off of Craiglist and wanted to have it tuned up before braving the trails. I came in at 11 a.m. on a Tuesday and the line was already out the door. I was helped straight away and they said they would give the bike a once over and call me with what it needed. Less than three hours later they called and the bike needed a full tune up and new brakes front and rear. Total damage? $97 (Totally fair in my mind) The bike was ready in less than 48 hours and it rides like a dream. When I do decide to purchase a brand new bike i'll be coming here. Thanks for making the whole process effortless. read more

Just found the time to write this review. I was in town for some heavy cycling training for 5 days in the Reno/Tahoe Area. After a big ride, I noticed a problem with my Venge crank/bottom bracket and needed to get this looked at quickly. I googled a specialized dealer and found Sierra Cyclesmith. Was helped by Ken. I explained my situation and as busy as they were, they told me they could get to it and have it back to me the next day. I was impressed with their expertise and overall customer service. Got the bike back as promised and have not has a problem since. Would recommend them to anyone who is in the area. read more

A bike was dropped off for shipping to Sierra Cycle Smith. They took several weeks to arrange for the transport from Reno to So.Cal. Finally received the wrong bike to my home in San Diego. Called many times, put on hold, dropped call or never returned call. Leon, the manager, will not call back or acknowledge the problem. One of his staff tells me my bike was shipped to someone else. I am hoping this is anomaly and the issue will be resolved soon. Happy to change my review if it resolved. read more

I sold my car to buy a road bike and save on insurance money, and when I went in I was underwhelmed with the service and the pricing. The manager seemed nice enough, but the kid he pawned me off on seemed to be in the middle of something and REALLY didn't like being bothered - he was incredibly inattentive (I later found out when I went to a good bike shop that the size he'd tried to put me on was completely wrong anyway) and disinterested when I had made it pretty clear that I was a walking dollar sign for a $2000-$2500 sale. Service aside, their prices are about par for the course for the industry, but they were unwilling to make any kinds of deals like their competitors were. I ended up going to Reno Cycling and it was night and day compared to my experience here, and I can't recommend that place enough. read more

According to Ray at Sierra Cyclesmith I am, and I directly quote him, a "fucking douchebag" because I called about a problem with a bike I bought from them in March. In March, I purchased a Trek Marlin 7 from this store. I went with this store in Reno, two and a half hours away from where I live, because I was also coming to Reno to buy a car so I could pick up the bike and the car at the same time. Though I *paid* for this bike in early March, because it had to be ordered and assembled I didn't take possession of the bike until later in March. At which time I was able to take a short ride around their parking lot and things seemed to be fine. I went home and because of work and other factors I was not able to get on *this MOUNTAIN BIKE* until some time later when I took it on a trip to a mountain bike park. It was then that I discovered that I had no front brake whatsoever and fluid was leaking from what appeared to be the bleed port of the front brake. After doing some research regarding this I discovered it was possible that there was some air in the line and it needed to be bled. I took it to a bike shop in Mammoth (where they have one of the world's premiere mountain bike parks) and where I've received service on the tire on my commuter bike (a tire that kept breaking spokes and was also taken to Sierra Cyclesmith for repair - different story, but they seemed to have discovered the actual problem and fixed that). The California bike shop called to tell me they traced the problem to the brake assembly and some bad seals - where the fluid kept leaking out of the brake assembly. They also recognized that the bike was new and how it HAS NOT BEEN RIDDEN. Because the seals were bad and the hydraulic fluid was leaking, they had to replace the brake assembly and rotor. They told me they could order the parts and fix it but that since the bike was NEW and HAS NOT BEEN RIDDEN I should contact the shop from where I bought the bike to see if it would be under warranty. They mechanic at the California shop also stated they'd be happy to speak with the shop where I bought it to tell them what they were finding and how it appeared to be a defective brake assembly. So I called the place I bought it: Sierra Cyclesmith and spoke with "John", who is apparently a mechanic. I tried to explain what was going on and inquire if there was a warranty that would cover this. John didn't know anything and said he was unfamiliar with how to do things. John kept stating "I guess we'll see what we can do" and "We'll try to call you in a few days". I told John that I was going to Mammoth the next day and I needed to know if I was going to pick up the bike and bring back to them for repairs and so equivications such as "I guess" and "we'll try" weren't doing me any good, that I needed something concrete. John continued to equivocate over something as simple as when they'd call me back. I asked to speak to a supervisor and was told there were none available. When I expressed surprise at this and that there was nobody in charge at the shop, I was told the supervisor was supposed to be there but hadn't yet arrived (this was at 12:32 in the afternoon). By this time John failed to understand the simple concept of a customer saying "I want a definitive, not a guess or a 'try'." and was getting indignant with me. Since John couldn't give me any definites such as if there would even be a chance they'd honor the warranty after this time, and getting an attitude about me stating that I needed to know if I had to get my bike fixed where it was, or if I had to drive there, get my bike and then find time to drive it a five hour round trip to drop it off at Sierra Cyclesmith and THEN find the time to go BACK to Reno, another five hour trip, I told him that I needed to have the supervisor contact me. I also gave a time line to have the supervisor contact me so that I could make a decision as to how to proceed with repairing an $800 bike that I HAVE NOT YET RIDDEN other than around the parking lot a few times. Ray, who thinks calling customers "fucking douchebags" after calling them ignorant and trying to give them bullshit, does call. Right at the deadline. Ray starts off with stating that he had a note to call me and that I was "screaming" at his mechanic. So already, Ray "I like to insult my customers" at Sierra Cyclesmith was ready to be confrontational rather than try to figure out what was going on. Because I was demanding they fix my bike over the phone, apparently. Which is...yeah. Goes downhill from there and, oddly enough, even after calling me a 'fucking douchebag' and hanging up, decides to call and leave a voicemail asking me to bring the bike back to them so they can see what they can do to fix it. Sorry, the only way I'm going back to you is if I have to file a lawsuit to recoup the cost of repairs on a bike that has NEVER BEEN RIDDEN any further than around your parking lot. You had your chance to do the right. read more

Got my Specialized Camber 29er here. Good experience overall and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

This is the best bike shop in Reno. They staff are friendly and know what they are talking about. I have taken my Specialized Epic in for two repairs and their work is top notch. I have also found that their pricing on service is cheaper than most of the other shops. I highly recommend these guys! read more

I am so fortunate I found this bike shop. First of all they gave me a great deal on my Specilized Stumpjumper. Secondly the service has been outstanding for the past two years. I live in N. Lake Tahoe and have tried local shops for convenience. That was a mistake. Sierra Cyclesmith have always gone out of their way to accommodate me during my 1-2 hours trips to Reno. They will start on my bike immediately and be finished by the time I come back. More importantly the work is done right and affordability. Thanks Sierra Cyclesmith for keeping me up and running. You guys rock! read more

Just bought my first full suspension bike from Sierra Cyclesmith!!! I am STOKED about my bike and extremely happy with the price I got and the service provided. I now get gear for 20% off and free service for a year, and Leon, the owner, even knocked off $100 after a miscommunication about the price. Highly recommend this great local business! read more

Very knowledgeable group of bicycle enthusiasts who know bikes, how to repair them properly and how to choose the right one. Found out the hard way how good they are after dealing with other shops that didn't do a very good job on repairs. Very friendly and good people to deal with. read more

My hubby and I have been wanting to purchase some Multi-Use (hybrid) bikes every since we moved here. We are located here in South Reno and they reviews here on Yelp pointed to some places we needed to check out. A beautiful Saturday we went strolling into this store to "look" since it was our first walk into bike shop, we weren't expecting much. I believe the salesman who approached us after a few minutes was named Steven. Who I think is one of the most laid-back people I have ever met. And that to me is the best kind of personality for a salesperson to have. Not a pushy bone in this kids body. We told him what we thought we were looking for and after he pulled a few bikes down and we both tried them out in the parking lot, we were sold. For such a small shop, they have a lot of merchandise. We also purchased our helmets, seats, etc there. Could we have gotten a better deal from perhaps a larger sporting good store? Perhaps but I like working with the smaller shops. Now, hopefully this great weather sticks for a while so we can use these amazing bikes... read more

Bought a MTB a couple of weeks ago. So far (been back four times) it's been great and I believe it'll stay that way. The owner fixed my Hybrid bike (bought at another shop) for two bucks, wow, he could'a charged me $50 and I wouldn't have known the difference!! read more

The very best customer service. I went in with a broken rear hub a year and 1 month after buying my bike from them. Specialized only does a one year so I was worried. Took it in and they said no problem, they would handle it get a new one in two weeks. I was super greatfull, but still slightly bummed that I couldn't ride for two weeks. They tried to find a wheel in the shop, but couldn't find one that would work. Again I was grateful but bummed. Then they asked me how large my frame was and I said it was a large. I Inquisitively asked why. They gave me a carbon fiber demo bike until my wheel came in. Unreal! Super pumped. Just know that these guys will have your back. That was only one of the several encounters that created a lifetime customer. Can't say enough good things. read more

Great customer service. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. The pricing was very competitive as well. I didn't end up purchasing from the shop because a friend sold me a used bike at a good price. I'll be back for accessories or a new ride down the road. read more

Brought my custom tandem here for a tune up. Got the full-monty (including frame waxing and cleaning). They have GREAT mechanics, and I will only let Sierra's mechanics touch my tandem or my Seven. I have only 1 gripe, and that is that the frame waxing job that I paid for didn't happen. shame on me for not saying anything, but I was back home(40 miles away) before I really noticed. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Their mechanics have always been great though, great customer service. read more

These guys provide friendly, fast, and knowledgeable service. They have a wide variety of Trek and Specialized bikes, and will let you test any of them out, no questions asked. Their spot-adjustments and free tuneups for the first year of purchasing have so far been perfect, and have dealt with the few issues I've gotten from either hitching a bike to a roof or taking my no-suspension hybrid out on mountain bike trails. The employees are not pushy whatsoever. read more
