    I'm new to cycling and have a budget bike (bought from Walmart) and so naturally, if something…read morefeels off, I'm no expert on the subject. During my lunch, I've been taking my bike to various bike shops around the midtown Sacramento area to browse around and ask general cycling questions or assistance with my bike if I feel like something doesn't feel right. Overall, my experience with various shops have been just okay. I would get the feeling that because I do not have an expensive bike, that I'm looked at differently. However, with Pacos, the staff here are EXTREMELY friendly and helpful. I brought my bike in with some concerns regarding my gears shifting, and Pancho took my bike onto the rack to inspect it. I was prepared to be given a diagnosis and perhaps a quote to see how much they would charge if I had them fix/adjust it for me. Instead, Pancho just took it upon himself to make these micro adjustments himself and even identified that my front derailleur was crooked and my front wheel was loose. Again, Pancho just made those adjustments himself to make sure everything was properly before I left the store. On top of that, I was not charged a dime. Totally unexpected, but highly appreciated! Fast forward to my second time coming to this shop, I was greeted by different staff. Yet, it was still the same high, friendly energy as the last time. Ayrton was there to assist and help me identify and issue I was having with my brakes. The way he spoke to me and went above and beyond to find answers he himself didn't know was much appreciated. Ayrton is a very friendly and outgoing guy and made sure I was taken care of before I left. The culture and energy of the staff here have been a fantastic experience and I highly recommend any cyclist to visit this store! Their inventory was impressive, the store is spacious and clean, and if I ever need cycling services, I am definitely coming back.

    Incredible service! Came in an hour until closing, Irie (sp?) helped me out right away and they…read morereplaced my bike tire in less than thirty minutes for less than thirty bucks. Such smooth service and well priced, too!

    Reward For Promoting "Green" By Cycling - Free Bike Valet Service!…read more SITREP Making Sacramento a cleaner, happier & healthier to live, to work and to have fun in! THE COMMUNITY SETUP The Sacramento Area Bicycle Advocates (SABA) is a wonderful asset to the Sacramento community since they believe it is important to make cycling safe & convenient for our local citizenry who make the effort to commute by bike. THE DEAL FOR YOU Fundamentally, if you are riding your bicycle to attend an event in Old Sacramento (Gold Rush Days, La Familia Day, etc.), a Sacramento Kings NBA game at the Golden 1 Center, etc., then SABA is making your wondering "Where the hell am I going to put my bike?!?" a more headache-free endeavor as they will provide bike valet services, such as this new location at Cesar Chavez Park in our City Center. MORE INFORMATION Check out SABA's website for more information on their mission and special projects (http://sacbike.org/), including a specific calendar of event days with the locations of where they will be: http://sacbike.org/events/ THE LOWDOWN Ride your bike, get rewarded with someone looking out after it while you enjoy your day at an event. That's a deal I think any cyclist would appreciate in a congested downtown area! Addendum: under the Yelp survey question, "Bike Parking?", that's a decided "YES".

    Who doesn't love free bicycle valet?! I've become so spoiled by having it, that if I ever go to an…read moreevent that doesn't have bike valet- I'm almost shocked! This is really such a cool local service. The friendly volunteers park your bike while you go play at whatever Sac Town event you are at! And most of all, your ride is safe. Thanks so much SABA!

    Extremely frustrating experience. Peloton scheduled a service appointment through Velofix and…read moreconfirmed the window as 8-10 AM. Later, I received an email from Velofix saying the time was actually 11 AM-1 PM, but I didn't notice the change right away. On the morning of the appointment, I called Velofix to clarify, and the representative told me it was too late to adjust anything and that I should've contacted them earlier. I let it go and agreed to keep the 11-1 window, rearranging my work schedule to be available. No one showed up. At 1:30 PM, I had to call my wife to let her know, and she followed up with Velofix -- only to be told the case had been closed because the service was "out of scope." No one informed me. I was literally on the phone with them that same morning and they said nothing about not coming. This whole experience showed a complete lack of communication and disregard for people's time. I won't be using Velofix again and wouldn't recommend them.

    We had the best experience with Velofix and never want to take our bikes anywhere else. We have…read moreused several repair shops in the past and it's such a pain to haul the bikes in (our bikes are really long with extra seating for the kiddos) and places have taken several weeks to fix just a simple flat tire. Don't even get me started on the attitude of the shop workers at Mike's Bikes in Folsom. SO RUDE. From booking the appointment to the actual service (by Wayne) the experience with Velofix was very friendly and professional and easy. Not to mention their rates were comparable to the shops where we had to haul the bikes in ourselves. To have the service come to you, have it fixed in under an hour, and everyone to be friendly about it? I didn't think this was possible! Also, after the last flat tire repair, where the shop had the bike for weeks, the bike did not sound the same. According to Wayne, whoever put our bike back together didn't do it properly and there were a ton of loose nuts etc. which I 100% believe because the bike did not sound the same when we were riding it. Wayne tightened all that stuff up for us (thanks Wayne!). Anyway, all around a great experience and we know who will be getting our business from now on. Also, to anyone researching bike repair places, I highly recommend looking on the bike manufacturer's website to see their recommended repair shops. Velofix was recommended by Rad Bikes and you can really tell the difference when someone is comfortable working with a particular bike brand.

    They've got a great selection of basics for whatever outdoorsy sport you're trying to get into. I…read morealso really enjoy the small Arc'teryx selection they have! They have some jackets, beanies, fleeces, etc. but the best selection is definitely all online. All the staff are friendly, welcoming, and helpful. You might be able to find gear for cheaper either buying used or just searching around but I think the convenience of everything in one store might be worth it. I come here primarily to get my snowboard waxed. I paid a $30 lifetime membership fee and was able to get my board waxed for about $15. WORTH!!!! I've heard they have workshops where they actually TEACH you how to wax your own snowboard so I'm definitely going to come back for those. They also have an option (free for members) to get your board a different type of wax that lasts for maybe a day or two. I dropped my board off on Monday afternoon and was lucky enough to pick up my board the next day. I'm not sure if their wax turnover time is always this quick but I am very happy with their service. Thanks REI! I will be back over and over to shop and get a good wax in.

You're paperless or plastic-less, fine. But there isn't a need for that kind of response and in that tone. It's just a bag. You don't know who you're dealing with. I've worked in customer service TRAINING in this industry. If she's not having a good day she should've stayed home or if she isn't happy with her job she should look into a different area of work point blank period. This will be known in all of my social media accounts.
