Taylor built my custom S-Works SL8. He hooked me up with Scope Artech wheels and SRAM Red 1x. The best part about working with him was how knowledgeable and helpful he was in speccing the bike. I couldn't be happier with the final result and working with him was a huge plus. read more

I had such a wonderful experience with the crew at Okoboji cyclist. Taylor the owner was able to locate my dream bike and was quick to respond to any questions I had during the whole process of the order. A big shout to drew their manic who help set up my bike for me. You can tell this is a shop that takes pride in what they do and made sure I was satisfied. Job well done! Although I live 2hours away I will comeback for the great service. Thanks for all you guys do! I'm back living the dream. read more

I've been searching for a couple months for this specific frame here in SD, no shop could find it. When The Okoboji Cyclist got involved, I received my tracking number 2 days later. They are know their stuff about cycling. I definitely recommend this place and they are very friendly. read more

We had a great experience with Okoboji Expedition. We rented bikes for my wife and daughter so we could ride the trails around West Okoboji Lake. The two guys working were very helpful and professional. The rental rate was very reasonable and they didn't hold us to a timeline. I called halfway through our ride to let them know we were going to be longer than 3 hours (which is what we had initially told them). His response was something along the lines of, "Don't worry about it man. Enjoy your bike ride and return them when you're done. We close at 6 pm tonight. If you can't have them back by then, just bring them in tomorrow morning. No worries." Whoever is running this business is doing it right. We will definitely come here in the future and will will recommend to other people. Wish more businesses were managed this way. read more

This shop is outstanding! The staff is Truly passionate and informed. Amazing cycling gear, it is a destination not to be missed! Professional in every way! read more

My husband and I went into this place to look for bicycle seats. The store is nicely laid out and has a good inventory of biking clothes and accessories. The staff is another story. At no point were we asked by anyone working there if we needed help. In fact, our presence was not acknowledged in any way, shape, or form. There was one employee speaking to another customer while we were there, and a couple other guys doing.....? The one talking to the other customer couldn't be bothered to even say, "I'll be with you shortly ". Yikes! If you go to this place, they'll likely have what you need but don't expect timely (or any) assistance. Inexcusably poor customer service. read more

Quick, polite, no-nonsense service. I have total confidence in their knowledge and expertise! read more

The Okoboji Cyclist - Bikes Near Me - Milford, Iowa

Not only did they do a great job they have been there for every question or problem I've had with my new bike. The knowledge they have is great and I live in cedar falls. If I need anything done on my bike I drive 3 hours just to have these guys look at it. Best bike shop in northern Iowa by far. They are like a professional bike shop in Colorado. read more

I had a terrible experience last summer with the Okoboji Expedition Company. I brought my bike in to have a shifter installed (I purchased the shifter separately) and to get the shifting system tuned up. I stopped in three or four times over the course of two weeks before it was complete, and when I tested it out in the parking lot the chain fell off after the first shift. This shows they didn't even attempt to tune up the shifting like I asked, or they would have figured this out before I picked it up. I brought the bike back in and they took 30 seconds to tune it up - all seemed fine. I took the bike out the next day for a ride and the chain continued to fall off. I brought it back in and they said my rear derailleur was old and needed to be replaced - it worked just fine before I brought it in. I feel like I paid them $60 to install a single break cable and ruin my derailleur. Needless to say this was not money well spent. I encourage anyone reading this to either learn to fix their own bike or take it elsewhere. read more

What a dynamic bunch of guys! Especially, during the pandemic! They ensured that bo more than 4 customers were in the shop at one time, all wore masks, had clear guidelines about what not to do in the store, etc. On top of all thaat they were friendly, helpful, professional, and speedy service!! One of the finest bike shops I've ever been in!! read more

Okoboji Expedition Co helped get me rolling on my new gravel bike. Not an experienced rider and frankly pretty slow, however they treated me like I was a pro! Couldn't ask for better service and knowledge. read more

My friends and I visited Okoboji for the first time this past weekend. We wanted to see as much of the lakeshore as possible so we decided to rent bikes for a trip around the lake. The owner of the store was extremely helpful as we are not very knowledgeable about bicycles, and we had never seen the trail before. He recommended hybrid bikes for the 20 mile ride around the lake. The bikes were absolutely perfect for the ride. They were in fantastic condition and seemed brand new. Great service and great bikes for a phenomenal ride. read more

This year, I had our bike broken down for shipping. Okoboji Expedition did a great job, on time and with a smile.

My colleague and I needed some specialty cinch straps to hold down a windsurfer for transporting. Upon arrival we found a worker to ask shortly even though it was busy in the store. He brought us to the back and showed us two separate kinds to choose from. They had a ton of biking gear and some kayaks and outdoor items. Cool friendly atmosphere. Neat! read more

Complete jerks. Needed air in bike tires and when walked in store first thing they said was "you buying anything here". Rude rude.

As an Okoboji local with four bikes - from a Huffy cruiser to an S-Works Tarmac - but not much knowledge about the mechanics of my bikes, I continue to trust these guys with any issues I bring in. They're patient and willing to explain the maintenance needed to get me out riding the trails again. The recent change in ownership has really helped - upbeat guys, clean shop, and quality service with a 1-2 day turnaround time. read more

Friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful job on much needed repairs and fast service!
