Always great to work with the Revolution folks. They do great work and I love being able to set appointments and plan on getting my bike back the next day. They work hard to make that happen! Thanks!

I would consider seven sea and cycles before revolution bicycles. Thats all I have to say I have my reasons. Such as one is able to fix my bike while the other company charged me and couldnt fix it. I dunno Ive seen a difference in quality and feel there are better options out there that wont over charge you.I appreciate that. The issue is I took the bike two different places one had the correct solution simple 5 min fix the other diagnosed the bike and told me I needed a whole new component. I dont mind paying for the labor to diagnose the issue I just wished that paying for diagnosing the problem could also fix the problem and I have felt I have better options out there thats all it is.

The owners are always cool. Small town, so limited selection. I buy 90% of my stuff there for the past 22 years. They have a dedicated base. Make sure to ask the mechanics to clean your bike if getting a tune-up. They forget, sometimes.

I stopped by when they were closed and was still able to get a much needed tool from the young man who was working inside the closed store. Im on bicycle tour up the coast and he really saved me. Great customer service!

The bike shop is neat and customer service is ok, prices are ok.Giving a 2 star cause I took my bike to convert the tires to tubeless.So they didn’t even hesitate to tell me my tires and wheels are not tubeless ready which they are!I have Maxxis Ardent and they are tubeless ready and my wheel are too! All I needed is a valve, tape and the liquid!Whats going on here ? Trying to up sell me brand new tires and wheels? LOLSince u didn’t even could tell my tires where tubeless ready i dont trust ur mechs. So im taking my business somewhere else.

I have stopped in a few times now and have always been impressed with the service. They helped me with a faulty tire valve free of charge.I took my mountain bike in to be inspected for safety, they looked at it promptly and gave me a reasonable quote. Probably the best part was they told me the truth, the bike didnt need any major work, they didnt ask for any money.Revolution will take care of you and your bike

Review №22

I took in my bike when I was new to town and the mechanic failed to fix the shifter, my chief complaint. The mechanic then called insisting it needed new brakes, so I asked how much he said 20$. when I picked pu the bike the bill was for 80$(it included an hour of labor). I payed to get my bike back, but soon after crashed it do to really sticky brakes ruining my back tire. I recommend going to another bike shop.

Review №25

Over 3 years of heavy use in the rain and mud, doing what I thought was a good job regularly maintaining my bike myself, I finally took it to these pros for a real tune up. I cant believe how much its improved. It really does feel like new again. Thank you so much, Revolution!

Justin and his staff are amazing! Justin was quick to reply my e-mails to arrange for the rental of 2 rad fat bikes for a day of riding on the coast. His staff helped us load the bikes safely on our bike rack and were friendly and knowledgeable. The bikes were beyond our expectations -and what an amazing place to cycle! Thank you for making our visit so much more special!

Stopped by here when we arrived in town to ride for the day. Very friendly staff who were really helpful with trail advise and told us all about the scene here. Coming from Squamish it’s amazing to see growth in the riding scene like this. Trails are top notch! Can’t wait to come back and see this place in a few years!

Review №42

Staff was nice. Service on bike was poor at best. Im still dealing with the aftermath years later. They did a very sloppy job on my old (i.e. simple) Trek bike, they lazily placed ill fitting modern parts on a vintage bike. Glad I dont live in the area any more.

Fenders are something that’s needed even in Northern California so sent our student granddaughter to Revolution to get needed equipment and they installed them and took credit card by telephone. That was was exceptionally good service for a student far from home. Thanks Garret we appreciate your customer service!

Review №45

I went in asking if they could FIX my vintage road bike. They looked at it for a minute and said YES. When I came back for the bike the receipt said general tune up which means that they not only lied to me, but also didnt call me when they realized that they couldnt FIX it. They charged me $140 and the bike ran just as it did before. What a waste.

Review №51

I just moved to Arcata and needed to have my bike tuned up. I have been riding it with clunky gear transition and the bike shop where I moved from could never get it fixed. I’m happy to say that not only was my bike done same day, but the problem I thought I had to just make peace with is now fixed!! Super friendly people, too! I found my bike store!

Shout out to Garret who helped me find the fenders I needed and put them on for me when he realized it was going to be a more involved process than we both originally thought. Very reasonable service prices.Amazing service, advice, help, etc etc!!!! First time in. Certainly not my last. Thanks Revolution Bicycle Repair :)

Probably the best bike shop in Humboldt county. Extremely helpful staff. I walked in with a flat yesterday and they fixed it on the spot. Not the first time they have done on the spot bike maintenance. I have been a very happy customer of theirs for about 12 years. I love revolution!!!!!!

He answerd all of my questions and was very knowledgeable about every bike that we were interested in. Would definitely recommend anyone looking for a bicycle to go see Avery. Thanks again.

Best bike shop I have ever been to. Seriously theyre that good. Was new in town and they were able to squeeze a last minute bike build in for me despite being slammed. Staff is super friendly, very knowledgeable, and about as accomodating as you can be. Nothing but praise for Revolution, these guys rock!

I owe a lot to this bike shop!! After busting my front rim in the middle of nowhere and limping along to Revolution, Andrew built me a new wheel reusing my dynamo hub within 90 minutes and had us back on the road so we could continue our tour. Thanks to them we made it to our destination three days later!!! The guys were all really friendly and they have a great selection of gear. I cannot recommend them enough, especially if you are touring the Pacific Coast. They were by far the best bike shop we found between Astoria and San Francisco. Thank you again, Revolution!

Great shop! Great staff! Brought my bike in for a flat fix, which they did right then. The next day I ran over something on the Hammond Trail and got ANOTHER flat. They fixed free of charge just on the slim chance something was missed the first time around. Super nice folks, wont go anywhere else.

I visited the Eureka store with an interest in Electric Bikes, Dave showed me some of the bikes they stocked and a bike with the Clean Republic Hill Topper kit installed on it.Dave suggested I ride their bike and see how well it performed as I already owned a bike I just loved.I took the bike on a long road test that included the Sequoia Park duckpond hill, I was totally convinced this was the option for me and purchased the kit and had Daves crew install it.Dave was very helpful and knowledgeable throughout the whole process, I highly recommend this shop.

The employees/owners are very friendly, but I was recently disappointed in their service. After having my bike all afternoon, they ordered the wrong part, and when the part came in they never called to let me know. Finally, when they installed the part, it was done poorly with a variety of the components not being properly tightened. It wouldnt have been too big of an issue, bur it involved the handlebars and was potentially very dangerous.
