GW Cycle World

As I am a new rider, I was in need of new gear, and felt disappointed by most of the «larger» name stores in the city. I was a little discouraged before entering, getting a dated vibe from the signage, but their customer service and selection made up for that. My first visit was on a Saturday, and it was busy. It would help if the staff wore name tags or staff identification, but that is really my only complaint. My husband went back during the week to buy the jacket I wanted, which turned out to be a size too big. The staff were incredibly helpful when we went in to exchange this evening, and made my experience buying a riding jacket a painless and pleasant one. Definitely recommend GW for their customer service and great selection of apparel for women.

Popped over here as my Motorcycle had developed a speed dependant squeaky noise. Thought it might have been the spokes so went in to see if they had a spoke wrench that would work for my klr650. Turns out I was talking to the service manager who came right out to my bike and tested all my spokes and then rode my bike around the parking lot to help me figure out the issue. (Turns out was chain) But it’s the kind of thing I appreciate so much as a consumer. If I can go to one place and they give me a bit of their time to help me find a solution to a problem in my life, they can count me as a customer!

I have been going to all the motorcycle places in Calgary as I’m looking to buy some gear as a new rider. At first I thought this place would be small and not have much but wen I walked in I was very surprised. They have a few bikes on the main floor on the right side and then a bunch of clothing on the left side. Most of the gear however is at the back up a few stairs. They have an endless supply of different helmets, tons of jackets, gloves and boots. There doesn’t seem to be muchh method to their madness in regards to organization but it makes it fun just looking around. Alot of jackets don’t have sizes on the hangers so you have to look at the tags which takes more time but they do have hundreds of types of jackets (leather and textile). I was actually a little overhelmed and it was a Satuday and super busy so I didn’t spend much time here. I will definitely head back soon on a weeknight to have a better look around. This is probably one of the top places I would recommend for any motorcycle gear (even over the better known places).
