I'm looking to get my full-suspension trail bike serviced (needs new tires, shocks serviced), any recommendations on local repair shops? Thanks in advance

I've always had good experiences at Pedal Power. I have another friend who swears by Coqui Cycles. Both are still locally owned.

My top 3 are Pedal Power, Outpost Richmond, and Coqui Cyclery.

Coqui gets my vote.

I haven't heard bad about any of the ones mentioned. Those that support community events, sponsor teams, group rides, and/or demos on dirt tend to take the job seriously.

Those shops that tend to focus on sales to families... I wouldn't throw shade, but they aren't usually named as the go-to bike repair shop for serious enthusiasts and pros.

Replying to Swrdmn (#1,896,616)

Had a wipeout this week (black ice last Monday). Coqui was able to tune up my bike in 4 days, and didn’t charge extra to straighten my tire. If they’re not slammed with people because of the the good weather, they’re my top choice.
