Wonderful service and expertise! Mike is great!
I go to so many different bike stores, this one has by far the best welcome, service and crew..by far!!
professional, organized, did the job efficiently and did it right the first time. For a good price.
Provided complimentary tune-ups for one year after purchase of a new bicycle.
The speed and quality of the repairs!
The staff is great but my bike shifting still skips and I need to bring it back in.
Amazing and speedy process
Helen's is the best - the customer service is friendly and quick. I wish all services were as enjoyable to do business with.
I'm really conflicted. I have been a big supporter of Helen's through the years and have primarily dealt with the crew in Santa Monica although I have bought a bike in the Marina and have had the guys in the ex-Westwood store do some maintenance. All great experiences. And my initial experiences with the Manhattan Beach store were good. But this particular experience was about as bad as it gets. I brought in a broken wheel in for evaluation and repair. I was working w/ Greg. The plan was to see if Cannondale would warranty the item or just get the necessary parts to repair the rear hub. If that was not possible then we would look at a replacement hub and re-lacing the wheels on my dime. Although I was not in a hurry there seemed to be ZERO sense of urgency on Greg's part. Although he told me that he'd keep my updated he NEVER called me. I always had to initiate any call or conversation. Greg was pleasant on the phone but I felt as if he had no interest in getting things resolved. After multiple calls with no action I had to email Jay and ask for his help. Two days later Greg called me (no apologetic in any way) to say the they would have the necessary parts in a few days to repair the wheel. I would have welcomed that information 2 months prior but it took an email to the owner to get results. Anyway I decided to do nothing but it was something that could have been resolved much earlier.
I know that things are different now due to COVID. But this is a great opportunity to strengthen customer relationships with basic skills like proactive and open lines of communication rather than being non-communicative and leaving customers in the dark. I apologize for rambling but I truly felt the need to respond.

Well I was given the incorrect inner tubes when I actually brought in the rims. I really hope they give me another for the one that popped since it was bunched up. Also time to have normal hours again .. I went to take back inner tubes & they were closed!!
Gregg appeared helpful with suggestions regarding your services and informative about your products
Everyone was nice, friendly, and attentive, and the representative I worked with made an adjustment on the day I picked up the bike!
They high end products, but not the extreme high end.
Bike service is now available only Wed-Friday, for 5.50 hours/day. It's very limited. Resume with Saturday availability..
Very competent and professional service and sales staff/team.
The level of service was great and the employees were very cordial but the prices they charged for a minor repair and adjustment was very high!!
Friendly and knowledgeable
