Specialized - Bikes Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Great people work here. The service is great, the staff is accepting, helpful and knowledgeable. The product selection is also great. They stock all kinds of specialized bikes and gear, as well as non-specialized gear for certain products. read more

I love this place. They've always had a great selection, very easy to navigate in the store and it gets you excited about biking! Oh, and very good deals. ALSO -- THE REPAIR SHOP GUYS ARE AWESOME! Had a serious issue with my bike and Matt in repair was there to help, and he made the repair on the spot. He handled it really professionally, gave the bike back and then said "no charge" ! Wow. Such good folk. Very loyal to their returning customers. They do excellent work. I will be a Cynergy loyalist and will make this my bike home shop from now on. Thank you Cynergy! Keep up the great work. read more

I went here to get my handlebars swapped out. I was helped by Aaron, who was really attentive and did his best to get the job done in a reasonable amount of time. He was able to get the job done on the same day, which was a pleasant surprise. He did a great job and even went the extra mile to give my bike a safety check and a quick inspection to see if there were any parts/components that needed servicing. I appreciated his thoroughness and the fact that he didn't try to sell me any unnecessary parts or services. The shop itself is beautiful. They seem to be a Specialized factory store, since they only carried Specialized products. This wasn't a bad thing, though, because they had pretty much anything you're looking for from Specialized. They also have those Retul fitting machines to get your fit dialed in. The crew there were friendly and not pushy at all. No one tried to upsell me or push me to buy the most expensive items in the shop. I appreciate that. They seem like a bunch of honest folks who just love cycling and are happy to help customers enjoy cycling as much as they do. read more

So impressed with this place. It's so hard to find a bike these days but Cynergy made it happen. Ellis and Isaac took care of me with outstanding customer service. I felt like I was buying a bike from a friend, not a salesperson. Isaac took over an hour explaining and showing how the bike works. Just really awesome experience. read more

Specialized - My 2021 Diverge Pro from Cynergy! Thanks to Ellis and Isaac for the great service! - Bikes Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I finally decided to step up to a specialized e-mountain bike. I've been riding electric mountain bikes for years. I highly recommend this team at specialized Santa Monica. They go the extra mile on every detail and are very service oriented. The first bike I ordered from them wasn't quite right for my riding style and they took it back no questions asked and got me fit on the right bike. This specialized turbo levo is truly a different class of machine. I was actually surprised at how extremely accommodating they were and I am thrilled with my new bike and happy to have such a competent and knowledgeable service team to maintain it. read more

Great store. Great selection. Special thanks for Marcos for the perfect customer service and tune up. Highly recommended!

Went in for a brake caliper part and they did not have it in stock but I asked the gentleman in the service department if he had some leftovers used parts and found what I needed. Told me to keep the part free of charge since it was leftovers. Part worked out for me perfectly. You can't find this type of service anywhere. Thank you for saving the day.. read more

My knee has been hurting so I stopped in to inquire about toe clips to alleviate the pressure - expecting to have to make a future service appt to install them. Marcos dug around and found a spare pair, Ben kindly installed them for me right then and there, and I was soon off and on my sunny afternoon ride . THANK YOU so much for your incredible help. You guys are great! See you again soon ! read more

Sadly my second experience here wasn't so great. On my first visit I dropped off one of my wheels for a warranty replacement through roval. Upon pickup, they wanted to charge me $30 for doing a tubeless setup on it. I explained to them that I didn't ask for nor authorized that additional work to be done. Their logic was "If we don't do it, usually people will ask why we didn't do it." and also "You should just assume we would do it." Maybe it would be easier to simply ask your customer before doing additional service work? I'm also not a bike mechanic, so I don't know why I would assume any work would be done with my authorization. I ended up having to pay for the materials used to get my wheel, but thankfully a simple chargeback through American Express took care of that issue. read more

Worst service ever. I went in spent an hour looking at options. Finally told me a bike was in stock and someone would call me in a day so I can come in and buy it and get fitted. Never got a call. Call them and they say we don't have a fitter. I asked does that mean I can't buy the bike and he says yes. That's it. Total clown show. Do no waste your time. read more

Definitely not the experience I was expecting from this store. They seem to be understaffed in their service department causing them to have most all their eMTBs still in boxes, staff lacked knowledge of their eMTB product line. I will purchase a bike elsewhere. read more

I have been coming to this store for all of my bike needs for years. The staff are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and help anyone from the new cyclist to the pro feel empowered to get out there and ride! Cannot thank this team enough for how supportive they've been! read more

This shop exemplifies everything that is wrong with the bike industry, customers included. 0% financing crew are you not able to make it up the hill? ; this place is for you! I went in 4 months ago to buy a qr skewer, they were completely puzzled and had an attitude... "Bikes don't use skewers anymore, we only have thru axles" ok fair but any decent shop would have a few on hand.. Today I got to the trailhead and realized I lost my thru axle, I figured they would have one. I ask the greeter if they had boost thru axles he was completely puzzle. We are talking about a thru axle here its a part that is on EVERY bike. So I get walked back to the service department where the customer in front is having a conversation about handlebars too low on his ebike, they offer him a 1 degree stem change saying that it would change the handlebar height by 1 inch(completely innacurate, we are talking millimiters if we want to get technical here), its clear that the customers seat and general body positioning is off, of course they make no mention of that I wait another 5 minutes for the customer to ask about touch up paint or a new decal, at this moment I knew I should have just gone online... So finally I ask if they have 110 x 15 Boost thru axle... The conversation went like this: "Is this for a levo?" No, its just a standard front wheel boost thru axle "Epic, road bike, what bike, what shock?" Fox performance elite 36, but its just a standard boost thru axle He looked incredibly puzzled like he had never heard of fox suspension and replied "We don't have that we have to order it" If I had looked at the specialized product offerings I might be able to say "oh its for a stumpjumper" there is a slight chance I would have walked out with the thru axle. This is incompetence at the highest level, not knowing a incredibly standard thru axle size and getting defensive and or not finding someone else when asked. This is a part that EVERY bike needs, there are only a handful of standards now you should have it in stock. read more

They have no idea what is going on. It appears that this shop is in the process of switching over to a Specialized store; hopefully they figure out how to fix this mess. Do not assume that anyone you speak to on the phone from this store has any idea what is going on and do not rely on even basic information. Insist you speak to a Manager; maybe at least then you'll have someone who can be held accountable. I called them this morning to confirm that they had a bike in stock like Specialized's website showed. They explained that it was a different color but the right size. I called them back later today to confirm that it was still in stock and explained that I live in Orange County and decided to buy it / wanted to pick it up today; they said that I was "good to go" and that they close at 4pm. When I got there, an hour later, the person who greeted me explained that the bike I wanted was not built up yet and that it would probably take them a couple days to build it. They had a black one built, which was the color that showed as in stock on their website this morning and was a preferable color, but explained that was for another customer who placed a deposit. The employee who assisted me gave me his card, apologized and explained that they have a number of new people there who don't know what's going on...clearly... They asked for my contact information...I declined... I'm not going to spend thousands of dollars at this shop, I'll give my business to a shop I know and trust and will wait if I have to. Unbelievable. read more

Brandon rocks. Super knowledgeable and great customer service. . Really refreshing to have a down to earth guy in corporate bike shop.

This is still -BY FAR- the best bike shop in LA. Not only is the crew nice they are so knowledgeable. Even when they are super busy, the are patient and really listen to my needs. I never feel rushed or unimportant. Brandon is the best. Always greets me with a smile and makes sure I get what I need. I recently came in for a fitting with Steve (per Brandon's suggestion) and it changed my life. I can't wait to come back. I really trust Brandon and the crew which is hard to find in LA. read more

Worst costumer service. Extremely rude and arrogant! I walked in and was hoping someone could help me since I'm new to biking and the staff were just sitting behind the register and talking, completely ignoring that someone just walked in and is waiting to be helped. read more

I've never written a review for anywhere before, but had a truly horrific experience with the Cynergy service department - it's hands down the worst customer service I've ever experienced at any business, ever. For additional context, I understand the bike industry very well; I worked at a high-end bike shop in Boulder, CO during all of college and I also worked and wrote for VeloNews for a year during college. My terrible Cynergy Cycles experience: I brought my bike in at the beginning of September and ~18 days later I came in to see what the status was since I hadn't heard anything. I was told some parts needed to be replaced, which was fine and was expected. I hadn't really heard anything and no responses to my texts back to the service department. About 3.5 weeks later (today), I stopped by again. I learned that the parts hadn't been sent yet to the shop yet (so I assume not ordered yet), so I requested that I just take my bike and go elsewhere. I was told there would ~$180 charge. I expected to pay something, but asked for a discount since my bike had been sitting there for almost 6 weeks with no progress. I politely said my reason for the request was bad service... and the person in the service department had a mini-tantrum when I asked this. He told me that the problem was that my bike was hard to work on and some other stuff - basically shaming me for my purchase. I politely said his super rude response was an example of the bad service I received. When I said this, he rather aggressively told me to leave the shop and said that he would put a note to not have the shop ever work with me again; which I'm assuming is just made up... but is also wild since I was about to purchase both an S-Works Shiv and S-Works SL7 at Cynergy when my bike was completed. I was just asking for a small discount on my failed attempt to get service, because 6 weeks with no progress, no updates from the shop, and what-not is truly just bad service. I don't think it was unreasonable and I was very polite - the person in the service department just flipped out. Anyways, I'd love to pay your shop for some of the service still because I want to make sure I support local businesses. If someone from the shop reads this, please reach out - I just feel rather uncomfortable going back. I ended up driving to Serious Cycling in Agoura right I got my bike and they called Specialized while I was there, and my replacement part was shipped out today already. They were also stoked to be working on a slightly more complicated bike (S-Works Venge ViAS rim brake). Best, and feel free to reach out to me so I can pay something for the service I received, Alex read more

Solid place. Very clean facility. Nick was super helpful and knowledgeable. Ended up with a solid bike and a happy customer. Thanks again!

The staff at this bike shop is amazing! Ask for Brandon if you need service and help with education on The bikes . He is knowledgeable professional and caring. I bought my Tarmac SL6 and everyone always take care of my bike needs. read more

As a long-time cyclist in LA, I have noticed that everyone has a different 'favorite' bike shop and everyone has an equally scary horror bike experience. Fortunately, for me, my horror story led to my new favorite bike store. I was riding my new e-bike when it broke down. And when a 75 pound bike breaks down, you got big problems! The manufacturer recommended I talk to the service department at Specialized Santa Monica. I called Marcos and explained that I had no way to get my bike to the store; and he offered to come out and pick it up. He spoke with the manufacturer who agreed to cover all of the costs of repair...and the transport costs, as well. Although it took several attempts to fix the bike electrical system, Marcos offered to bring it back to me (to see if the problem was resolved) and if it wasn't, to lend me a bike until I was completely satisfied. Long story short, the manufacturer couldn't isolate the problem and agreed to give me a brand-new bike. Marcos delivered the new bike to my home and personally fitted to to me. I could not have asked for better service! read more

The staff at Specialized Santa Monica are incredible! I stopped by with a flat tire on my mountain bike and Julian repaired it under 10 minutes, hassle free. I highly recommend this bike shop. The staff is very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my questions. I will be back! Thank you! read more

There are a few dozen bike shops in Santa Monica & West LA, but this is my favorite bike shop in the area. The Cynergy cycle sells the "Specialized" brand bikes and gears. "Specialized" is an American brand that supplies the top professional cycling teams like Tinkoff-Saxo, Astana & Etixx-quick step. In my (biased) opinion, It is one of the best bike brands out there, with the cleanest looking designs & the top notch technology. I own 3 Specialized bikes. The shop sells commuter and kids bikes, in $500 range, good road and mountain bikes starting around $1000, all the way up to the pro level S-works bikes in $10000 range. My experiences with the sales and the service people have been excellent. The sales guys (Patrick, Ben, Alan and others) have patiently help me test-drive and select the best bike for my needs & my budget. They are super friendly and knowledgable. After my recent bike purchase, Willie worked with me over an hour to get the bike fit just right, to have the best riding experience possible. The service guys have been very responsive & reliable. When I bent the rear gear bracket from a minor crash, they fixed it overnight & they cleaned the drive train for me for no charge! Cynergy cycle hosts group rides on Wednesday nights & Sunday mornings 8am, starting in their parking lot. They also host occasional demo event where you can try out new bikes and gears. I recommend them highly as one of the best bike shops in the Westside. read more

See all

Great working with this bike shop. Picked up a bike for my kid and they got it out together in. A couple hours. It was perfect, the staff was very responsive (they text) and the bike was priced cheaper than any where else. Solid bike shop. read more

This store is so cool! It is so aspirational! One day I would like to come and purchase a bike from here. But in the meantime, whenever I need my kids' bikes fixed just an inner tube change or anything, I come here because of the service, cleanliness, and the way I enjoy just spending time in the store. Always polite, capable, and kind service people. read more

Staff is pretty chill, they replaced the cam and spring in my quick release for free.

I was referred to this shop by another as the bike I ride has an issue with the seatpost slipping. Riding a Specialized Venge Vias Disc and this being a Specialized specific shop it was good fit. I had the extreme pleasure of being helped by David. He listened, asked appropriate questions, treated me and the issues with respect and the professionalism. The issues has been solved. This is my new go to shop even though I live in deep Hollywood. The most important item I want to stress is David treated me no different had I been a pro rider or my first bike ever. This is rare in any shop. Thank you Cynergy and thank you David. read more

This is one of the best shops in L.A. for the quality of their bikes, but more importantly for the quality of their service. Yesterday, I dropped my bike off for service at 10 AM hoping (unrealistically) that they could get it repaired by that evening. When I returned at 6:45 PM (15 minutes before closing) the bike was not done (which was completely understandable), but Matt quickly jumped in and did the repairs while I waited; finishing up 10 minutes past closing time. This allowed me to go on the ride I had scheduled for this morning with a well-oiled machine. Thanks, Cynergy, you have a customer for life. read more

We had the best possible experience at this bike shop with C. Brandon Scaies and his crew. They took amazing care of us and went out of their way to help us. Everyone was wearing masks and communicated what was being done to the bike throughout the process. Thank you so much guys for having solved our problem immediately and in such a kind way. I strongly recommend checking out this place! Spotless and clean - it feels like the Apple store for bikes. read more

Although I have lived in LA for a long time and am an avid cyclist I am new to Cynergy. However I recently purchased a Specialized e-bike at Cynergy for my wife. Both the bike and the service at Cynergy have been superb. The bike is amazing-- we both use it-- and we can't believe we waited this long to buy one. Specialized is clearly committed to being the leading e-bike company. It shows in their product which is a dream to ride. The staff at Cynergy in both the sales and service departments have consistently been excellent-- professional, friendly, and ardent bike enthusiasts. Shout out to Matt and Brandon for their assistance on our last visit. They exemplify the type of service described above. I plan on being a Cynergy regular in the future. read more

Had an awesome experience at specialized Santa Monica today. Brandon and Jackson answered all my questions. Took my concerns and needs and completely Helped me fine tune my Stumpy EVO, to what now feels like perfection. Haven't found this level of help is a shop before. My new go to!! Everyone in this shop is extremely knowledgeable and helpful!! Thanks again! Huge shout out to Brandon! read more

Maybe try actually greeting your customers for once. The workers here could use a good training on customer service....

Very knowledgeable service team that is always happy and willing to help!! It's hard to find so many passionate people all in one place.

This is the best bike service department in town, hand's down. They are total pros and will make sure you're 100% happy with your bike. Friendly, super knowledgeable and highly efficient. Ask for Aaron or Matt. Those guys are the best. Best, Dr. Pepper read more

Over the past six months I've purchased 4 bikes and accessories from Specialized. I've gotten great service; Michal especially has been super responsive, and while bikes have been hard to get I've been able to order them without any hassle, even if I've had to wait. I've brought in my mountain bike for a number of repairs; in almost all cases the problem has been fixed within an hour or two. Aaron and Angel especially have been super helpful; this morning Angel replaced a derailleur part but also noticed a problem with the chain, and now the bike is riding better than ever. read more

Great looking bike shop! They got everything you need from entry level to the high end stuff. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Got my first road bike here a few days ago. read more

A great experience buying some new shoes. I came back with my new cleats and Brandon set them up for me and installed the new pedals in a very short time while I waited. Super great way to keep me coming back. As a long time customer, I alway feel like they care about my bike and my riding. Bravo! read more

As someone new to cycling, I feel happy and relieved to have found Cynergy Cycling. The entire staff seems to be very knowledgeable, friendly and eager to help. In particular, the mechanic Brandon has been extremely patient, thorough and generous with his time in helping my wife and I better understand how to get the most out of our bikes. I will continue to get maintenance, tune ups and other services from Cynergy! read more

Staff often looked frustrated when selling shoes or clothes.. they only want to sell their expensive bikes and lack interest and look to other customers if they are looking at bikes. Also, I've been in three different times to find shoes.. and each time, they are out of my and my friends size. The shop looked surprisingly empty when I went in yesterday.. I wonder if they are going to stay open. Won't be going back for a while read more
