“Big Dave's is always fantastic, I've been coming here for years and my last visit for a hub maintenance was a great experience. They walked me through my hub with great detail and recommended I just buy a new wheel, didn't even charge me for the install. Can't recommend them enough.”

“My husband and I were visiting from out of town and decided to go look at e-bikes! This shop owner and employees were amazing!! They were friendly, knowledgable, and experienced! We were able to test ride different bikes to make sure we were not only comfortable with the ride but the staff also modified the bike so my husband would have a more comfortable ride with his shoulder issues! We purchased two bikes from them and would highly recommend anyone in the tri-valley area to stop in if you are considering purchasing a bike or need repairs done on your current bike! There is a reason why they are so busy because they are really that good!”

1446 Leimert Boulevard, Oakland CA 94602
“This place has to be your #1 for selection, service and education. Kansas (Oakland store) took us out for test runs and answered all questions about Aventon Cargo LR. This is a great family/kid option kids and short grocery trips. While waiting for the bike to arrive and be assembled, I called w/ more questions and Tim (Larkspur store) stepped right up! The staff is passionate about ebike transportation and I highly recommend this company!”

“Went there with Alex to purchase two Penny Farthings for his San Jose bike shop. He bought a silver and black one. We loaded it in his beat up green rusty old van. It was a spilritual experience. Greg was humble, fair. Gave us a discount on the black because it was very slightly used and the silver one (I think was made of stainless steel). Alex enlisted me to help him because I had a little experience riding scrappy original Penny Farthings in the Antelope Valley in Lancaster Fair parades and in Rosamond at the Tropico Gold Mine Chili contests.”

180 Alamo Plaza, Alamo CA 94507
“Monty Brown Dropped in to discuss a tire problem, Marcus jumped on my wheel like a tour mechanic, promptly trying to see what was going on. Was able to spoon on one tire with difficulty, but there was something not quite right with them? Using the Trek TLR system for tubeless tires the brand I'd bought wasn't easy, if even possible to use with TLR. Opted to buy two new Maxxis hoops which Marcas had mounted with sealant and aired up before I could say thank you!”

2320 Santa Clara Avenue, Alameda CA 94501
“I came into the shop tonight after getting glass in my tire earlier tonight. I fully expected to be told that there is a two week waitlist for repairs, but John said go ahead and bring your bike in and I’ll take a look. John spent the next 45 minutes, not just fixing my immediate problem but giving me lots of education about welcome advice on how to avoid the issue in the future and diagnosing several other issues I didn’t even know were going on with my bike. While he was repairing my bike, John also informed me about several trails in the area and the cycling club which I plan on joining soon. I am so grateful for his unpretentious and super helpful attitude. I can see why the cycle club calls him MacGyver! I am definitely a customer for the rest of my days in Alameda. Thank you, John.”

“I'd been looking for my next road bike for a little while and settled on a Factor Ostro VAM. I'm somewhat familiar with the brand and just needed to find a bike shop to work with for my order. I of course went to the Factor website but wanted to see if I might be able to get a better deal on the bike. Checking the list of shops on Factor's website didn't give me a bike in my size in inventory so I continued looking online. I came across Beyond Aero and started checking out reviews and things. Psychotically, I even used google maps to view the street the store is on - just to make sure things were ok! Fortunately, Andres has a number of great reviews so that put me at ease. I knew I wanted the Ostro VAM and I was keen for Beyond Aero's build using Zipp wheels so I emailed the shop. Andres was quick to respond. He's also very patient as I submitted a tonne of questions about the build, sizing, possible swaps, and all sorts of things. Each time Andres responded promptly and never made me feel like I was wasting his time. Unfortunately, Andres didn't have the integrated handlebar/stem combo I was looking for so we agreed a price reflecting that and we made the deal. Andres has built up the bike as far as he can and it's now winging its way to me. I'm beyond excited (get it?) for the bike to arrive and thank Andres so much for putting up with all of my questions and indecision. I do wish I'd been able to visit the shop to more fully experience the buying process but maybe I'll get out there one day. As it stands, a 56cm white/chrome Ostro Vam with Sram Force AXS, power meter, and Zipp 404s is heading my way right now! Thank you again Andres!5/8 Update. The bike arrived very well packed. I had a bit of building to do since I wanted a different handlebar setup so just got all of that done. My build is:56cm Factor Ostro VAM in pearl white and chromeSram force axs with quark power meterZipp 404 wheelsBlack inc aero integrated stem and handlebarPirelli P zero 28mil tubeless tire setupSella Italia SLRMy bike has the cycliq fly 6 camera on the back - don’t waste your time with that until the battery can last more than 2 hours!I’ve only ridden the bike up and down the street but it feels solid and everything is rolling smoothly. Thank you again, Andres!8/17: Another update! I took advantage of a sale BA was having and got some new bling for my road bike. I originally had the Sram Force AXS groupset but upgraded. You can see from the pics I didn't stretch for the crankset though - I'm not Bill Gates! Anyway, the groupset arrived and was straight forward to install using a few online videos. I needed to buy a cable routing tool - about $15 on Amazon, and you need a brake bleed kit but I dad one so all good there. The kit is chromed on the brake calipers and levers, then mostly blacked out for the rest of the components which suits my white Factor Ostro VAM with Chrome logos quite nicely. Shifting is smooth and quiet except for the chain's noise which you would get with all groupsets. Shifting is intuitive with my setup being the right lever shifts to a higher gear and the left lever shifting to a lower gear - different from the mechanical setup but perhaps more logical. I can't speak to feeling a weight difference - I'm not that much of a weight weenie - but there is a psychological affect to having Sram's top groupset on your bike. Does the upgrade make me faster? Probably not. But does the upgrade make me feel faster? Absolutely! Call it superficial if you want but I like it! All-in-all, I'm very pleased with the purchase and Andres made it super simple to order, as always. Thanks Andres!”

“Great service, friendly staff, limited items in stock for clothing but that’s any bike shop. I’ve gone in with simple questions regarding bike parts, tire repair questions, installation requests and they’ve always been very knowledgeable and helpful. They’ve taken care of small things free of charge and are always happy to do so. Love alameda bicycle! Keep doing what your doing guys.”

“We went in to get our sit bones measured and had planned to buy new/appropriate sized seats for our bikes. Josh did the measuring and helped explain what would be a good seat and what he'd recommend for our style of riding and needs. Unfortunately, they didn't have it in stock. He spent a long time with us, answering questions we had about a bunch of the bike world we were trying to dip our toes into. Pedals/Cleats and clip options. As well as fitness levels, what to expect from different types of riding and just bike life in general. Great guy, knows his stuff and is super down to earth and approachable.”

“I’ve just retired and wanted to begin riding a bike , after many decades of being a flat footed pedestrian. I stopped into Encina Bicycle Center in Walnut Creek and very glad I did. Jared was kind, knowledgeable and patient with finding and fitting the perfect bike for me. I’m thoroughly satisfied and would recommend them to anyone who’s shy about returning to riding and buying a bike. And anyone who appreciates great customer service, should visit their store and ask for Jared.”

“The guys in this bike store are absolutely amazing people. I want to specifically call out Zac (manager) and Gavin. These guys are stars. I needed to get a new bike and this time I wanted something nice. I’ve been a cyclist for over 25 years and I want to buy something I absolutely love. Gavin helped me and picked out a gravel bike and so I ordered it online. When it came in, the seat post was too tall and Gavin helped me find a seat post in the company that will allow me to test ride the bike. Few days later the seat post came in and I finally rode the bike. It was too small. So now Gavin had to order me one size up. He did it with a smile on his face. A week went by. The bigger bike came in. I once again went into the store to test ride it. This time, the seat post fits. The frame fits and it’s looking good. I took the bike out for a real ride to see how it feels. Good news is the bigger frame works but I just didn’t love the way the bike felt. It felt sluggish for me. I came back to the store. Zac and Gavin were both there greeted me with a smile and asked “how was it?!”. I told them I don’t think this is the bike for me. I don’t love the ride. Without questioning, they helped me off the bike and immediately did a refund on the spot. Wow. The service is unbelievable. They never made me feel bad once about all the trouble I put them through. They said “hey I get it. It has to be right”. That’s amazing. If you don’t want to feel pressured buying a bike or anything bike related. Go to these guys. You won’t regret it. I am def buying a new bike and it will just take me time to find it. I’m def going back to see Zac and Gavin when I am ready.”
