“In October 2025, I was heading to our home in Southern Florida for the winter. The boss (my wife) gave me the go ahead to look for an upgrade of my road bike.
I was looking for a specific Specialized model and the only local bike shop who had my size and model was Ten Spokes. I spoke with the owner, Tom Kearns who was professional and accommodating. I called on a Friday at 3:50PM and his store was closing at 5:00. He told me not to worry and that he'd wait for me to drive there. With fall traffic, it took me over an hour and he waited for me. That's service to me.
He had the bike ready for me to test ride and told me to take my time. With the ride and purchase, I didn't get out of there until 6:00PM. Again, that's service. He didn't rush me, he let me ask all the questions I had and offered clear and concise answers.
With all of the options to purchase a bike, go and talk to Tom and his staff at Ten Spokes. They all get an A+.
Update:
Bikes like cars and every other product can have issues. The difference is when the store you buy something from stands behind their product.
I'm having an issue with a rear cassette. My local bike shop in Florida handled it like most shops. I'll sell you a new one and you can go after the manufacturer (SRAM). I called Tom at Ten Spokes and he told me to ship the cassette to him and he'll talk to the SRAM rep and figure out if there's a warranty issue. Going the extra mile is what Tom does.”
“Wow! This store is a must stop for anyone in Newport. My family not only got some great gear to use sailing and day to day, but our experience was memoriable Virginia, was amazing, she was well versed in all of the products, was very helpful with my wife as she was selecting vests and other gear. She also guided us on other local attractions to check out with our kids.
Going Above and beyond.
We had actually left an item at the store and Virginia helped ship it back to us, with a lovely personal note. If anyone from **Gill Management** is reading this, know, you've got an amazing associate with Virginia. I reccomend anyone in Newport stop by the Gill store, they have great products and a team there that exceeds expectations.”
“Run Newport is everything you want in a local running shop and more. The owners are the best! Incredibly welcoming and genuinely invested in building a strong, inclusive running community in Newport. You can feel it the second you walk in. The shop is stocked with all the latest and greatest gear in the running world, and the staff takes the time to make sure you’re fitted right and confident in what you’re buying. Great people, great energy, great community.”
“The manager is a Patagonia “veteran” and can tell you pretty much anything you want to know about the company. If you appreciate the brand and company it’s worth stopping by just for a chat with her.”
“Had a wonderful experience yesterday I wasn’t quite sure on sizes the lady Im sorry I’m terrible with names but she was fantastic even helped find the right color shoe for my daughter great price and fantastic customer service!”
“I went in once two years ago asking about getting a slip when one becomes available. Question to the owner, are you going to expand when the bridge piers come down and also can I come down and make sure my names still on the waiting list? I live in the neighborhood.”
“Absolute must visit for any sailor in the area. They have an excellent student discount for ISCA and ISSA sailors looking to get a discount on their favorite name brands. Their customer service is great with someone always greeting me in the store to assist with my shopping.”
“Place looks incredible now that it’s redone. Friendly staff super helpful, brought my dog in to check out some gear and guy who runs it Cheyne was really helpful and it was nice to walk in with your pet and know he’s welcome too! I would def recommend stopping in for anything skate related and surf.”
