One of the owners, Em, happened to be driving by and saw my kids. She pulled over, asked them what they needed, opened her shop and completed the repairs. On her day off. The repairs were much appreciated because my kids a "bike rodeo" at school on the following day. Also, for those of us with growing kids who don't have money to toss around, they sell bikes that they have rebuilt and refurbished at affordable prices. They also have really nice new bikes. We have been going to another nearby shop for years but The Ride has earned our loyalty now. Very impressive customer service.

Thank you so much!! My son really love his new skateboard and can't wait to try it out once we get home.

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.

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.

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.
