“The small shop on East William Street, with bikes locked out front and tires hanging from the ceiling, is a real neighborhood gem. Trends have come and gone over the years, but Bicycle Express owners Karen and Chuck Clifford have managed to ride them all”

-Sal Pizarro, Mercury News
  •   The ONLY bicycle shop I go to. The one time I go elsewhere for a simple tire change and the alignment is messed with. The other shop forgot to add a part on my bike tire, which became very wobbly. Took it to Bicycle Express, thanked them for the help and apologized for going somewhere else. Haha! Great service every time, wether there's a line out of the door or if I catch them getting ready to open up in the morning. Do yourself a favor and just come here first. I will never make that mistake again. Haha!

      I am so very pleased with this bike shop - I originally was planning to go to Summit Bicycles to see what was going on with my bike but I found that this shop was closer to where I live. I was able to come in, ask questions about my bike, have it looked at and fixed within the same hour and dealt with the kindest people I've ever interacted with at any bike shop.

    I saw upon entering the store that it's a small business. Their prices are super affordable and they are so attentive. I really appreciate the time they took to answer all of my questions whether it was about my bicycle or a lock that I was looking for; even answering questions about future purchases and etc. Seriously, everyone that works here was so nice and amazing to talk to. Highly recommend coming to this shop for all of your bike needs.

      I needed a few miscellaneous parts to install on my bike, and they had everything I needed in stock. The shop is small, but mighty as they're very well equipped and take the time to efficiently help every customer. They also offer repair services, but be sure to book them in advance as they schedule pretty far out. Karen is very knowledgeable, friendly, and provided excellent service; don't let her name fool you! (Sorry Karen). Check them out!

  •   I went here 3pm on March 2 2021
    I only needed a few items done to the bike.
    Seat post, a new seat and a clamp for the post
    Also 2 new tire tubes. Upon checking it in I was told an hour and a half so I decided to walk around downtown.
    When returning to the shop to pick my bike and this is at 4:30 pm I see clear as day they haven't even started.
    I went to the front door to ask and was told it was next.
    So I decided to give them one last shot. I decided to wait at the store this time but while I was waiting another customer came in with a flat tire and that customers bike went on the rack before mine. Mind you my bike is right next the the rack for the bike. I am pretty sure that there work is good but very unorganized shop. Only do business here if you can leave your bike til the next day.
    Wasted 2 hours of my day and nothing was done to the bike.

      I just got a Marin bike from Bicycle Express. I was looking for a particular bike which was not available anywhere nearby. They were the only place who offered to call me back once it's in stock. Guess what! I did get a callback from them once the bike was in stock.

    Once I reached there I noticed they were following all the COVID related protocols and limited entry to only two people at a time. The bike was ready for me, though I was in a rush they still insisted I take a test ride so they can make any adjustments I wanted. I felt there was some unusual noise. When I mentioned it to them they spent enough time between fixing and testing until first they and then I was satisfied even though it was a really busy hour for them with many people waiting to be serviced. The staff is super friendly, patient and had a smile on their face all along.

    Event though I am about 15 miles away, they will be my preferred go to bike shop in the valley for any of my bike related needs.

      Got new tires and tubes installed on my road bike. I left the bike sitting for weeks and when I finally went to ride it one of the tubes was flat. I brought my bike back in to Bicycle Express and they replaced the tube for me free of charge. Was happy they did not try and blame me for the tube being flat. I am happy to support businesses that are stand by their products and have trust in their customers.
