The owner provided excellent service and advice! We bought equipment and a bike from this location. 1 year warranty on the bike. Very impressed with the quality of the items and the customer service. Thank you!

Some of it is overpriced. Had a good experience with their bike mechanic

Amazing place and married couple owners. My 6 year old granddaughter found the perfect 2 wheeler for her size and the owners lowered the seat immediately for her to make it fit properly. Love It!
