Pedal Pushers Cyclery

I don’t trust many shops in the front range with my bike, but these guys go above and beyond for their customers. I have worked in the bike industry for over 8 years, including 4 years of competitive riding; I’ve encountered the good and the bad; pedal pushers are simply, the best. Their mechanics are without a doubt the most experienced and knowledgable and get the job done on time. I recently had my new ibis Mojo HD3 built by them and couldn’t be happier!

These guys are top notch and will go a long way to make sure you are getting professional service and advice. I recently bought a Transition TransAm through them and was undecided on a couple of things about the bike. Eric guided me the whole way and answered any questions I had. Safe to say, I now have a kick-​ass bike that took only 5 business days from order to complete build. You will not be disappointed if you work with the guys at Pedal Pushers!

I can honestly say that I have had a decent number of experiences with most of the bike shops in the Denver Metro Area. Hands down, Pedal Pushers is the best bike shop I have encountered here thus far. My only regret is not coming to them sooner.
They’re honest, attentive, knowledgable and down-​to-​earth people. I don’t know why, but this has become such a hard thing to find in bike shops lately.
For example, I came in today after bashing some chain links and a pedal pretty badly on some rocks at Apex… instead of taking the traditional route of an elitist bike shop snob and 1) first insulting the product I currently own (why would you ever own that in the first place?) and then 2) trying to upsell me or convince me that the answer to my problem is to simply replace everything with something new and better (the easy route). The employee actually took the time to troubleshoot the situation and although I did not expect it, fortunately, found a decent work-​around that ended up being very economical and had my bike running back in original form. They also helped me with a number of other things I had been meaning to get to do on my bike for a long time!
Most of all, it is the relaxed and approachable team that will keep me coming back to PPC.

I went into Pedal Pushers to get some new tires for my road bike and a new wheel for my mountain bike. The gentleman who I dealt with when I went in on a Sunday was fantastic. Very friendly and he helped me select tires I’d be happy with. We very clearly went through each service that I was getting and we decided on the exact price it would be. I left excited for my new tires.
When I came back to get the tires on, I believe, a Friday, a dark haired gentleman helped me out. Well, let’s not use the word gentleman here as it disgraces the word. He pulled up a total that was $ 30 more than we had agreed on. I asked him to break down where that extra $ 30 had come from and he mentioned that the price for the tire installation had been $ 20 more after «labor». I explained that I had very firmly made sure to get the exact price, including labor, when I had first come in (I’m a student, I’m always broke, I use my bike for commuting and have to know exactly what I am paying for things to work it into my budget).
The employee then got incredibly angry and said «What, you’d expect free labor if you went to a mechanic too, huh? We charge for labor here — unless you think that’s unfair?» — he said this with a snarl. Seriously, his lip was curled up into a snarl as he said this. I got incredibly offended because I had been professional and had just been inquiring about the total and had given him no reason to get so upset — plus, I would never try and walk out of a place without paying for labor!
I was so offended that I told him «Hey, there’s no reason to be rude!» and he immediately switched his tone, though only on the surface. He sarcastically, or perhaps vindictively, took $ 50 off my purchase, which wasn’t what I had asked for. He made the situation so uncomfortable that I paid the reduced total and ran out of the store feeling terrible for having simply wanted clarification on a price. I guess that’s what he wanted, for me to feel terrible, so he succeeded.

Great crew, very knowledgeable, fast work. Had some break issues over the 4^th of July and the guys turned my bike around fast when most other bike shops weren’t even open.

This place rocks. Good for the serious mountain biker for sure. They have solved plenty of repair issues over the years. They also know about good component replacement. They are right sized to be able to give customized help

Went in here last week looking for a new bike. Their employees were great asking me what I was looking for, what sort of trails I ride, and what my price range was. They showed me the bikes they had and what would fit my needs the best. It was nice getting that kind of attention, verses some of the bigger stores that hardly pay attention to you. I obviously ordered a bike through them, now I just have to wait!

As a long time mtn biker, my goal walking into the shop was to find my wife a mtn bike she would live to ride and therefore become a mtn biker. She was not a fan of mtn biking based on the undersized bike she bought from a friend. So she runs the trails and refused to mtn bike.
While at the shop, Eric took her for a spin around the parking lot on a full suspension Ibis Ripley. To emphasize he lack of riding, I will share that she fell at the traffic light. Ugh!
But here is the payoff. She bought the Ibis and we went to Moab after practicing on trails near home. She LOVED riding that Ibis all over the gnarly rock and new rollercoaster trails in mtn bike Mecca Moab.
Thank you Eric and the team at Pedal Pushers. You Rock!
We also bought my son a Scott Scale RC Junior. At age 10 he is ripping up every steep climb on this rare find, light, 27 geared, disc brake bike. Its the way to go if youre getting kids 8 – 11 or so into mtn biking.

These guys are great. I have a great experience every time I go in. Erik and his team are courteous and knowledgable and always make an effort to make the customer happy.

First. Class. Folks.
A few of us stopped in for their 1 year anniversary celebration at the new location.
It was demo, party, BBQ, raffle and beer day!
The (entire) staff here are excellent and passionate. The reps that came in to build and assist with the demos had superior knowledge and a genuine friendliness you only find around people petting puppies.
Loved this day.
I rode the new Intense Tracer 275, although my legs and lungs weren’t in shape to climb with a 1X setup, my ridding buddies had no problem passing mountain goats up the trail.
However, I hung in there and this Carbon Tracer’s descent was buttery, light and quick. It was a rock and trail absorbing machine, allowing quick technical turns around the switchbacks and the bike just screamed… only my finger tips kept this two-​wheeled rocket ship from getting away.

Bought a bike from these guys last week and had it shipped to me. Great experience all around and would not hesitate in recommending them. Excellent service and great bike. Glad I found them.

My girl-​friend and I demoed some mountain bikes. The service was over the top and the prices were reasonable too.

Great shop, great bikes, great people, great shop dogs. I used to never spend any money on bike parts before I started hanging out at Pedal Pushers and I ended up buying two bikes from these guys in a single summer. They always help me out when I’m in a jam and they carry stuff that they actually use and like. The new store is amazing and makes it clear this is a premier shop for the Denver/​Golden area. The focus here is on making riding fun and you don’t have to know a thing about bikes or maintenance to feel comfortable here and get some help. The emphasis is on All Mountain and Trail bikes, but they have XC and road bikes as well and can get downhill and freeride bikes from Transition, Intense, and Scott. I am definitely going to keep spending all of my money here.

Just purchased a new Scott bike from Erik! He was extremely knowledgable, helpful… but not pushy. My husband And I walked in after they were already closed on a Sunday (which we did not realize and they never pointed out) and he patiently worked with us and answered all of our questions. I have dealt with all of the other bike shops around Golden, Genesee and Wheatridge and Pedal Pushers had the best bike for the best price! Erik was extremely knowledgable about the bike and told me how much I would love it. he was right, the Scott 27.5 is a perfect bike for me… LOVE it! It is nice to have a local shop that is friendly and knows their stuff, without being condescending and overpriced. We will recommend this shop to all of our friends!

I can’t agree more with the other reviews. They were so helpful… but not pushy. They offered us multiple options on gear and even suggested things they didn’t have in the shop. You don’t find people like this anymore. Much more friendly then the «other» bike shop in town.

You cannot find a more knowledgeable wrench than Erik. His suspension rebuilds are excellent. I would not hesitate to bring in either road or mtn to him. As a small neighborhood LBS he has found his niche in service and advice plus sales. I have been biking for 30 years, do most of my own wrenching and see Pedal Pusher as my go to when my ignorance rules the day. Great shop.

I’ve had a couple of minor repairs done at pedal pushers, and they’ve helped with small bike maintenance stuff (eg seating a tubeless tire).
They are nice guys, and they clearly know what they are doing. They convinced me to get my fork rebuilt, and they told me it’d feel a lot better (though I hadn’t previously had any complaints with it). In practice, I didn’t notice a difference after the rebuild. Perhaps someone more in-​tune with their bike would have appreciated it more.
I still like the shop though.

Great shop! While on my weekly ride from East Denver I needed to stop in for some quick directions. The guys were very easy going and polite. Although I had no idea how to get where I needed to be, they did a great job of pointing me in the right direction.
The staff seemed really laid back and happy just to be working at a bike shop. No pretentiousness, no snobbery.

There are 4 bike shops near downtown Golden, I have done business at all, this one is at the bottom of my list.
Recent service I received was overpriced compared to similar bike service I have had elsewhere, was not completed on time, and incomplete for what I paid for (I discovered once I got home).
I do not recommend this shop for repair or service and I will never go there again.

Big Moots retailer which is great. The guys that work there know their stuff and are very helpful when you have questions. If they don’t have it they can order it.
Their bike service is second to none. They can fix just about anything road or mountain.
You gotta love a shop that has a dog as well. Friendly and playful like a good dog should be.
They fit you to the right product even if they don’t sell it.
Great shop.
