Elevation Cycles

Greg did a quick fit for me on two of my bikes and absolutely NAILED it. Spot on! The results I achieved with a quick fit from Greg equaled or surpassed results I’ve gotten from high-​end fit shops. I couldn’t be more pleased! Great guys, great shop… and VERY knowledgeable.

Back in September of 2014 I called into the shop looking for a Yeti 575 mountain bike. I chatted with Chris, the General Manager, for a bit and collected a bunch of good information as he was very knowledgeable about the bike. Chris called me about a week later to follow up and I informed him that I had decided the bike was out of my budget. He suggested I come in and check out some of the other more affordable bikes that were within my price range. I ultimately purchased a Trek Remedy 8 mountain bike and then two months later I bought a new Trek Madone road bicycle. This past summer I purchased a third bike which was a mountain bike for my girlfriend. Why did I keep going back to Elevation to buy bikes? Plain and simple: the staff.
Chris, Greg, Jon, Phillip, Jeff, Colin, and Roman (I think I remembered everybody) are all knowledgeable, friendly, and fun to talk to. Sometimes Jon has a fantastic beard, too. I’ve referred a number of my friends there who have also purchased bicycles and they were all treated the same way I was. If you need a great shop for purchases or repairs this is the place to go in Denver.
I’m a loyal customer for life and can’t see myself shopping for my cycling needs anywhere else.

Super informative and helpful with zero cyclist-​pretention. I would highly recommend checking them out.

Can’t say enough of Elevation Cycles and their staff! I was about to head home on my cargo bike with my 18 month old and three year old after work and looked down to see two flat tires. Since I was downtown, I immediately called Elevation and asked if they could help. Even though it was 5:30 pm and they close at 6 pm, they said no problem — just bring it in. After walking across downtown, I arrived at 5:45. The team did a fantastic job helping us until 6:30 pm and getting the flat tires repaired so we could all make it home. They were extremely professional, helped with everything and were patient while the kids played in the shop. Nothing but praise for the team — I can’t thank them enough!!!

Walked in here with my bike here after one of the airlines bent the front rotor. Their service department got me back on the road in about 30 minutes, for a fair price. Can’t ask for more than that. Would definitely use again.

In the heart of LoDo, in the halls of Elevation Cycles, works a bike ninja by the name of Jon. If you are lucky enough to encounter him, you will likely witness him expertly practicing his craft, a craft so honed and skill so expert that some have claimed he is not of this world. Go to Elevation Cycles, find Jon, and let him demonstrate his prowess for you.
PS-​he is also very nice

These guys really know their stuff! I was looking for a new mountain bike and this was the last stop, and where I ultimately found my new bike. I’m still getting started on the sport and Reeves was very, very helpful in explaining what to look for in a good bike and had some great suggestions for what bikes would fit my needs. I ultimately scored pretty well on a FS ride and fit me perfectly.
I also get a free tune every year for the next 5 years that I’ll fully be taking advantage of. I know that I’ll be able to come in any time for questions related to maintenance or even getting tips on what trails I should hit that weekend. Super friendly service you won’t find at a big box. If you are looking for a bike and don’t know where to start, start here!

I had been seeking a new commuter bike for a while and found that there was a sale at the place up the street with the really expensive implements, so my brother and I went to check it out, After some disappointment bad advice we knew we weren’t going to find what we wanted there, so we headed back to the light rail. We had some time to kill, so I checked my phone and found that there was a bike shop close to Union Station called Elevation Cycles. We were greeted enthusiastically as we walked in the door and Reeves was there to answer questions and provide information. Most importantly, he listened and proposed solutions and pitched suggestions that were going to work best for me, not just to sell something, which was good, because I wasn’t really ready to pull the trigger at that time.
Fast forward to today, I had the resources in place to make something happen along with the time to go do it. Shortly after opening time at 10AM on a cold and rainy Friday, there were already some people in the store when we got there, but Chris was there to greet us and when we told him of our previous visit and a bike that had been suggested letting him know of my physical concerns, he said yes, this was a good bike and that it would likely suit my needs wonderfully. I wanted to take one for a ride, even though it was cold and rainy. This wasn’t a problem but the problem was that there was not a bike in that model line that was fully assembled. He went and checked with one of his mechanics and came back and said it would likely be ready in 45 minutes to an hour. He took my number and suggested some things to do nearby to pass the time. He called me right at about minute 45 to let me know the bike was assembled and ready to ride.
We got back to the store and the bike was waiting for me to take a look at. Chris took time to make sure that sized correctly, made a few adjustments to saddle height and such and sent me out to the streets.
The bike was great but the stem wasn’t quite right, so Chris had it changed for a different one, which felt better, but he really wanted to try a different one but didn’t have it in stock. He said if I was comfortable with what I have, I could take the bike home and he will contact me when the new stem arrives, we can check things out then. He gave me plenty of good advice about accessories and made sure I was happy before he would relax. I was happy and life was good until…
I got home and noticed that something I had purchased was not with me. I was pretty sure I had left it at the store but wasn’t sure. I got a phone call from Chris stating that I had, in fact, left the item there and I could pick it up whenever. Very good touch! I’m very happy with my purchase and am sure I’m going to be getting great service as long as I ride. Keep it up guys, I hope this is the beginning of a long and healthy relationship!

Needed a bike for commuting and don’t know a whole lot about bike purchasing or maintenance. The sales guys were super informative about purchasing decisions and even followed up after my store visit to answer additional questions and recommend other bikes that could fit my needs, that they could have brought in. Been in a couple times for add-​ons and maintenance, and the tech guys couldn’t have been better. Highly recommended!

These guys have been great. Philip in particular has gone out of his way to research several suspension-​related topics and even counseled me to NOT spend money on certain items.

This is by far my best experience with a bike shop in Denver. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They obviously care about their customers without over doing it. They’re also not bicycle snobs like some of the other Denver shops which I particularly appreciate.
I went there recently to get my wheel straightened and my brakes tightened and bought a helmet as well. On top of fixing up my bike within 3 hours (I went early in the afternoon and needed my bike back by 5pm), they also cleaned the frame (it had rained the day before and my bike was covered in mud) and the gears. They must have also realigned the gears because the chain used to rub on certain speeds and it doesn’t anymore.
They didn’t even say they did it, I only noticed my bike was spanking clean and my gears quiet after I got out of the store. So definitely 5 stars for these guys!
