Chico Bike & Board

Got everything i needed, replaced the tube fast and inexpensive! Jon was cool, was out of there in no time!

Had an excellent experience here recently. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Prices are affordable too. I had new tires installed on my mountain bike. They put them on right then in less than 10 mins! Great place.

I’ve just went to Chico bike and board as I wanted to buy my son a long board from a local company. I first tried boards on nord but that person was so rude I left and took my money down to bike and board, I was so happy! They treated me like they didn’t mind answering a few questions and I of course found a great board. Thanks Chico bike and board for caring about your customers. I was treated like a customer and friend and will be going back there for all my bike and board needs.

good prices and knowledgeable employees. mike and brian know their stuff and will share tips and tricks with the shade tree mechanic. they have a good selection of tools for purchase and most importantly they are HONEST!

I’ve lived in Chico a while and have owned (and «lost» my share of bikes). We’ve taken our bikes to pretty much all the known places and even a few of the not-​so-​known places to take one’s bike to get repaired. This is the place I go to get my entire families bike’s repaired and I would recommend to anyone. They are honest and tell you the simple answers. Sometimes, simple is the answer. Occam’s Razor. Bike stores, any store, can sell a customer things, they can sell a customer what they think they may want or need. Chico Bike and Board doesn’t do that. The guy that owns that place, seems to really like bikes and he knows who to hire too, and that’s the key to good business. I have to say, I haven’t bought a bike there, but I do know people who have, and I know a lot of college students like that place too. They’re obviously doing something right.

Wanted to buy a mountain bike. Went all over Chico looking for an entry level womens mountain bike and looking to spend somewhere in the $ 500-​$ 700 dollar price range. The sales person told me that I would not be able to find a bike in that price range unless I went to Walmart and then proceeded to tell me that they are not allowed to carry bikes of such «low quality» in their store. I said to him that I actually had been to many of the bikes shops in Chico and had found bikes that met my criteria and price range. He then said, «Well you can find them but they will be last year’s models.» I told him I wasn’t opposed to last year’s models at all but that I had actually found a Specialized 2015 bike from Sports Ltd and a Giant 2015 from Cycle Sport. He then walked away from me and said, «I’m walking away now.» So I quickly left the store.
I couldn’t help but take offense to being told that what I was searching for was by lack of a better word ‚” cheap.” As I was also offended by his apparent assumption that I would have absolutely no knowledge of bikes and his tacky sales pitch would work on me. I’m also disappointed that I spent a lot of money in that store last year buying my son a bmx bike and gear.
Today I purchased a 2015 Specialized Jett womens mountain bike. I paid $ 700. I doubt that Sports Ltd would be pleased to hear that they are selling «low quality» Walmart bikes.

Skate shop: Great customer service and helped me choose the right item for my needs. I appreciate it that they recommended upgrades and set the stage for future visits. Well done. That’s how you earn customer loyalty.

These guys fixed up my bike no problem. Great customer service. Will do minor fixes for free no questions asked. Gona b my main bike shop here in Chico.

I bought a KHS 2.0 hybrid about 3 months ago, for my daily commute to work. This bike shop has great service, high standards, and an excellent staff!

I needed a few repairs done on my mountain bike so I came by here. The staff here is extremely knowledgeable and friendly! Quick service and very reasonable prices.

Awesome staff! My son bought a skateboarding helmet here and other things. One time my son was on a bike we could not fit our air pump on. We rode up to Chico Bike & Board and one of the staff walked over with us to the gas station to pump air and help us with my son’s bike! Wow! So nice! We always come back here because these are great guys and staff who care about their customers!

This is a great place to go. Brian, the owner hooked me up with my old 3 speed. He knows his bikes cold and was able to get my 1969 Schwinn Varsity tuned to the point where it slide down the streets with ease. If you are lookingfor an old school bike shop this is the place to go.

Service was speedy, friendly, knowledgable, and fair. Straightforward bike shop that isn’t trying to nickel and dime you, unlike some others. Will be returning for further maintenance needs.

they where very helpful and very knowledgeable and not to pushy. they had a lot of bikes on sale. I am brand new to biking and he helped me pick out one and gave me a few pointers on keeping balance. he helped us take the wheel off and helped us fit it into the back seat of the car. you also get a lifetime repair and maintenance with your bike. when i crashed and it made my handlebars misaligned he straitened it back out for free!

Awesome Service! Very knowledgeable and helpful! I love that I can drop by anytime to get my tires aired up for free.

Not sure why we chose this bike place but convenience certainly plays a factor as its impossible to get downtown parking. But like the service, speed and small coziness of the place.

Very helpful and knowledgeable. As someone who didn’t know the first thing about shopping for a bike this was the perfect place to get trustworthy help and direction. Thanks for the perfect bike!

Bought my bike here and wasn’t disappointed.
The lack of attitude was a nice change and the guys are all very knowledgeable. They steered me in the right direction when it was time to change my riding styles and I could be more stoked on the new wheels.
I’ve been back to get a flat fixed and was in and out in under 15 minutes. They also have a ton of accessories and offer a lifetime of free tuneups with your purchase.
That’s gold, Jerry… Gold…

We bought our daughters bike here at Christmas time. They are super helpful and I love their policy of free tune ups on their bikes. We recently took her bike in to fix a flat they were quick and it was affordable.

The 5 stars are for repair service, I never bought a bike here. These guys simply do the best job for way cheaper than anyone else in town. Once I had a creaky bottom bracket and I took my bike somewhere else first (think I’ll review THEM next) and they said I’d need new chain, gears, etc., and more than $ 200 later my bike still made the same noise. I then brought it to Chico Bike & Board, and they fixed it for $ 5.
Another time I needed some threads cut on a set of forks, and nobody else would do it on a Sunday except Chico Bike & Board.
These guys know their stuff and are down to earth, no road-​racing snobbishness, and have the most reasonable rates in town. As a bike fan I try to patronize every shop in town, but I have gripes about repair work from just about all of them except Chico Bike & Board.
