Bicycle Shops in Portland, OR

“Awesome shop! Spent a few days emailing back and forth asking about some bikes. Got a ton of information on em and went in on a Saturday. All the staff were super friendly and helpful and no pressure buying experience. Jay pulled multiple bikes off the shelf for me, set em up to my weight and let me test ride them. Everyone was friendly and super knowledgeable on products. Left the shop with an Ibis Ripley and can't wait to start logging some miles on it! I'll be back here for sure! Thanks again!”

“If I could give this place 10 stars I would. This one of my favorite Portland businesses and is hands down my favorite local bike shop.I have steel and aluminum gravel bikes that need servicing throughout the year. When I first moved to Portland, I relied a lot on larger shops like River City Bicycles. After finding the Golden Pliers I am not going anywhere else. The experience could not be more different than the larger shops in all of the best ways.1. This is the best service you'll find in town. The folks here do an amazing job speaking with you about your bike, explaining the mechanics, and answering any and all questions with kindness and patience. No gatekeeping here. Every time I've brought a bike in with an issue, they've taken the time to walk me through the entire process of fixing it. As a hands-on learner with limited bike knowledge, this has been a huge learning experience.2. Every time I bring a bike in, someone stops what they are doing and starts chatting with me about what I need. Every single time, they have put my bike on the stand and sent me on my way with all the work I needed done in a short time frame.3. Huge wealth of knowledge among all of the folks here. I've seen them servicing everything from brand new full-suspension mountain bikes to old steel racing bikes. I'm confident I can bring anything here and it will be taken care of.4. Price structure is very affordable and transparent.5. The vibes can't be beat. Beer, coffee, records, product collaborations, and art. Such a beautiful and well-made space.This place inspires you to spend more time on your bike. Well done to everyone there.”

“Deciding to switch to e-bikes and having multiple brands, models and stores to choose from, my wife and I were lucky to eventually find and work with both Chase and Alex at this location.Extremely knowledgeable and patient with us, both of these guys took the time to answer all our questions and help us find the perfect bike for our needs.Before you make any final decisions, stop by and speak with either of these two professionals. They know their business and really care about you making the right decision.”

“Gladys Bikes is my favorite bike shop in town! I am new to bike commuting and often feel intimidated in bike shops, but the staff at Gladys made me feel very welcome and explained everything I needed to know. After ordering a part that arrived in about a week, I dropped my bike off and they fixed it up in just a few hours! Now it rides like a dream”

“I love this shop! Quality workmanship, knowledgeable, and they work and sell e-bikes! Some other benefits; they are close to the spring water corridor trail, and near awesome food carts, and brewery spots! I was drooling over the new bike selection as well... Thank you Matthew and team!”

“Mark & Lewis have been a gem to work with. Sold me a delightful Pivot Firebird and some road wheels. Fair pricing, great passionate folks, and integrity (apparent in how they speak of others deemed competition).”

“Yesterday I a specialized rock hoppper from river city. I’ve bought several bikes over the years from them. I couldn’t be more happy. The staff is the best. Customer service from extremely knowledgeable staff is priceless. Thank you River City!”

“I recently visited Evo as well as used the online customer care! I can't tell you how impressed I am with both the online service and in store help that I received! I had inquired about some different gear to ensure that it is correct for my set up. The online service had given me guidance and answered all my questions, I proceeded to visit the store to complete my purchase and get help with installing. I was prepared to pay for the item, however, I wish that there was a sale or coupon I could have used. Either way, the service alone was above and beyond and I was able to get everything that I needed. I appreciate the team at Evo!”

“Kevin provided the best service and advice I could have asked for. He took the time to help me decide which e-bike to choose, which is not an easy task. I was able to leave with the perfect bike for my family needs at the price point I was looking for. Clever Cycles can be trusted to provide the best products and no pressure sales and service. This is our third bike purchased from them over the years.”

“Charged me $300 and now my bike is out of service… at least they said they care about their customers!!!!!Update (2/21/24):Although they did not work on my bike's electrical system specifically, the employee who worked on my bike did mention that he made some connection adjustments in the process of his tune up. Just seemed like a crazy coincidence that my battery failed less than 48 hours after having it worked on. But he has a point, my bike is indeed old. Nonetheless they reached out to me to bring my bike back in for further diagnosis, and just when I had lost hope they ended up fixing her! Even though I had already bought a new bike, they proved to me they do in fact care about their customers - even the angry ones.”

“Called this morning to check if they had a profile stem and new set of headset bearings to get my bike rolling again. Everything I needed was in stock. If you need bmx stuff this is the place in Portland to go.”

“I found this place a few blocks from my house in SE PDX, and it's been great to live so close to the premier shop that sells, fixes, and upgrades specifically fixed gear / track bikes. I brought an old frame in that I have had since 2008, after my daily ride was stolen out of my building; and the guy there was super cool and helpful about selecting the right parts. Just a few days later, I picked up what seemed like a brand new ride, and it's been cherry to ride every day. Both the people working there were friendly and helpful, and they always have sludgy doom metal playing, which is nice. I'll definitely be back to Retrogression with my next bike build.”

“I've been a loyal customer of Western Bikeworks for several years, and I can't praise them enough. Their impeccable customer service, fantastic loyalty program, competitively priced products, and reliable shipping have made each purchase a delightful experience.What truly sets them apart is their dedicated staff. Every time I've interacted with their team, it's been a pleasure. They tackle any issues with efficient and practical solutions, making the occasional hiccup feel like a minor inconvenience.Most recently, I had to utilize their warranty service for my Kask Protone helmet, and I was blown away by their professionalism and outstanding communication. They made the process smooth and stress-free.Western Bikeworks, you've consistently exceeded my expectations. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of top-notch cycling gear and service.”
