I have a hard time to decide what was best on this trip. Was it the route? The ride without pressure but constant encouragement? The diverse and therefore fun group of riders? The sunshine? The well chosen location? The exceptional organization? The fresh cooked food and beer when we arrived?

It was one year ago today that two touring cyclists found themselves thousands of miles from home, on the side of a Seattle bike way, with a bike trailer that had snapped it's frame after striking a curb. In our most dire moment up rides Stew from Alki Bike & Board to offer us assistance. After getting to his shop we are given a corner of the mechanics work area to swap some frame rails around and get us on our way. No pressure. No expensive repair options. We were so grateful for a place to quietly fix our trailer with tools and support. We ended up buying a replacement trailer from the shop, just in case our repair failed (it didn't), & had it shipped to our home. Thanks guys for helping us out! Friendship like yours is a gift.

This place is great. I pretty much destroyed my old bike and rolled in there to assess the damage. All three people working there were all excellent, but especially Chris. I’m generally very socially anxious but I felt very comfortable asking all my questions, discussing my options, and felt very taken care of by knowledgeable, friendly, competent, trustworthy Chris. They definitely were not trying to up sell me on anything, and even in times of covid had a pretty good inventory of choices.

A great, versatile bike shop. I've spent thousands of dollars here in the last year and I really feel like I've gotten more than my money's worth back in products and quality of service. Pros: - Great service! Always friendly, listening, knowledgeable and helpful. - Good selection of bicycles for sale. - Performs quality work. - Reasonable prices. - Forthcoming about costs, won't try to nickle and dime you or get you to pay for something that should be covered by warranty. I never felt like I was paying for something that I shouldn't. - Local, small business. Support your community! Neutral: - Can be a bit stressful when really busy. But in my experience you'll always be seen and taken care of either way. Cons: - Not the most organized store in the world. If you bring your bike in for service or repairs I suggest putting a note on it listing everything you want done or looked at. There have been times when I got a bike back after taking it in and they hadn't done everything I asked them to when I brought it in. Please note that this is an exception though, they usually perform very well. Conclusion: Highly recommended both for purchasing a bike and for servicing and repairs.

The front, right pedal on my Raleigh mountain bike had fused to the crank arm (it has been on since 1992). After nearly destroying the bike trying to remove the pedal, I took it to Alki Bike and Board to get some help. Alas, the pedal was permanently stuck. However, they replaced the entire front crank assembly for just 40! To be clear, we're talking about spending 24-hours with my bike trying to get my pedal off a SRAM front crank assembly installation for just 40. I think they also fixed the bent front derailleur just because that was a cool thing to do. I'm a huge DIY guy and generally expect to get ripped off by Seattle stores. Alki Bike and Board reminded me of the value of a local bike shop that cares about their craft and does the right thing for their customers. Thanks!
