Dude I don't even care that this is a corporate chain.. They have good sales and I've never had bad customer service. Their house brand of products, Forte, really isn't that bad either if you need...

God I hate Performance Bicycle. Every time I have to come here that automatically becomes a crappy day. This isn't the only Performance I've been to and my experience is always the same. Firstly,...

Typical corporate bike shop. Large but with minimal selection of what you actually need. Customer service is lacking, no one ever comes up to help when you are looking around and I always have to wait...

What would you think if you bought a set of three shiny new tire irons and all three broke the first time you used them? Not like I don't know what I'm doing - even used to work as a bicycle mechanic...

I walked in to find a huge, clean, very commercial bike shop. Not what I'm used to, but it was all right. The boys working the counter didn't acknowledge me, which made my search for the perfect...

Performance is essentially the Target of bike shops - if you just need the basics, then expect a fair selection at a good price in a clean store. But as far as getting anything specialized or...

Went back today to pick up a seat bag. They had a HUGE selections of seat bags for every possible seat and seat stem combo. The staff was helpful and as always, the prices were cheap.

This bike shop is so low-pressure & spacious, I loved it at first! Till I spent an hour and a half buying a $550 bike that didn't fit me, because their salespeople are not trained in fittings. If...

There are so many better local non-chain shops to choose from. That said I pop in here for great prices on commodity things like powerbars, gels, tires, etc. But in general support your LBS and buy...

Bought my bike! They were super busy the day I came since it was a 15% off everything in the store weekend. Both the sales associate (Ricky) as well as Todd who worked the transaction for us were...

Also had attentive service and suggestions. Repair folks very accommodating and occasionally did little stuff gratis. It's a bit of a warehouse, but has a generous selection.

Update (Feb 2008):Extra star for Chris who replaced the lost screw on my cycle cleat. I was 100% committed to buying a new cleat. But he replaced it for free and fretted over the fact that my other...

these guys are boobs, lack a lot of basic parts, make you stick your bike in a really half-ass rinky dink rack (that you can't effectively lock to), rather than walk in into the store, and they're...

Eh... no big deal. i've only shopped there for parts and small items. Its near my place. Wouldn't buy a bike there but for small items, sometimes prices can't be beat locally.

Clean, organized, labeled/priced clearly, room to square-dance in the aisles. Has none of the character of Berkeley bike shops where it would be no surprise to see pot brownies on the counter and...
