Sporting Goods in Cold Lake, AB

“Mach 1 Sports is a great little mom and pop (and dogs) store for all of your cycling needs. The staff are super knowledgeable of not only the product lines they carry, but the assembly and/or repair of pretty much anything with two wheels that doesn't require insurance and registration to ride. Prices are completely in line with what other (big-box and boutique) stores are charging and in many cases, I have found them to be the less expensive option compared to large rain-forest named online retailers. Not only are their prices competitive, but you don't have to take the entire day to drive to a larger city and back. Plus when you buy locally, you are helping to keep that option to buy locally available. Win-win.

When it comes to in-store stock, as you can imagine, they really can't have every single brand and model in the showroom as it would be cost-prohibitive. So if you cannot find a bike on-site that suits your needs, Mach 1 Sports can probably order the right bike for you directly from the manufacturer(s). With the owner's expertise, he can help you select the perfect bike, even when you don't really know exactly what you want or need. It is worth noting that many of the bicycle brands they carry have some extremely high-end products that will definitely bust your wallet, but it is nice to have access to them should you be in the market for the best of the best. Personally, I have ordered a few bikes through Mach 1 Sports and it's a straight-forward procedure that doesn't take too long to make 'new-bike-day' happen! Also they have pretty much every imaginable aftermarket part or tool that you might want in order to enjoy your new ride to the fullest.

I have absolutely no reservations in recommending Mach 1 Sports for all of your bicycling needs. You'll experience friendly staff that are very knowledgeable and able to answer most any questions you might have to find the perfect fit for your riding style. You can also rest assured that you are buying a quality product that will stand the test of time. The 2012 Norco Charger 9.2 I bought way back when is still going strong to this day with only minor repairs: one inner tube, handgrips and pedals.

10/5 stars.”

“Megan and the team who answered the phone today were amazing. I had made an error in ordering an item that had to be cancelled and the item sold out in the meantime, which I thought I had lost forever. Megan was able to track down the item so I could rebuy it correctly. Thank you all for your help!”
