Penuel Bicycles

Honest, good prices, efficient service is the best way to describe this family owned business. George, is an as close to a bike expert as you’ll find. He answered all of my questions while he gave my bike a much needed tune-​up. I’ll definitely patronize this business again.

If you need any repairs on your bike, Penuel Bike Shop is the place to go! Why? Because George (the owner) is fair and honest and won’t rip you off! If you are thinking of purchasing a bike, see George first to get a precise fitting for the size of bike that fits you!
The first bike I bought was from Performance and as a result of George precise fitting, I learned that the bike I previously purchased from Performance Bikes was two size too big for me. In fact, George told me that riding this bike was like running with my pants sagging.
He was right!
Additionally, after George fitting, I purchase a bike from him that was the proper size for me and I got it for half the retail price. Now, I refer all my friends to him and they all have positive things to say about his work! I wouldn’t take my bike any where else now.
Thanks! George

Awesome bike shop! They took my super old bike and made it run like new. It feels so smooth now, it’s beyond ridiculous. It took a little longer than they said it would but I can’t fault them for it. George broke his leg :/​despite that, they had my bike ready by the second date they told me and threw in some free work because of the delay. I highly recommend this place!

Penuel Cycles is a rather ‘low key’ bicycle shop in Inglewood. I first stumbled upon it one day as I traveled South down LaBrea Avenue. Unless you really know it’s there, you may miss it… There’s an illuminated ‘OPEN’ sign in the window along with the ‘Penuel Cycles’ name on the main sign (in light blue). It can be a little hard to spot on the fly if you’re in a moving car because it’s part of the strip of stores that line this area of La Brea Ave. So, keep your eyes peeled & you’ll find it!
The inventory in this shop isn’t that large but is solid & high in quality. This shop is very well kept, carries top of the line BH & KHS bicycles, numerous tools, accessories, helmets, etc. There’s not a bunch of needless fluff lying around for the customer to blow money on either. But, you will find what you’re looking for. If not, the owner, George, can special order it for you. If you tell him what you need, he has the price available for you and they are reasonable.
I’ve received 3 repairs, bought 4 tubes, a patch kit, tire wedges and a helmet from this LBS so far. I have no complaints. I like the laid back & relaxed atmosphere in the store, the professionalism and knowledge of the owner & the community of cyclists who frequent this shop.
I’m currently riding an entry level fixed gear bicycle as one of my primary modes of transportation, for fitness and for fun. I really love riding my bike & I desire to get more serious about cycling (as my CASHFLOW allows… eventually upgrading). George has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to purchasing/​maintaining/​repairing bicycles & pretty much anything re: cycling. I was able to chop it up with him about what my next step should be at this point & he told me what I need to work towards. He also invited me out to ride with his group of riders, which is really cool & appreciated. Compared to other shops in the area, this one is the closest in distance to where I reside and one I feel I can build & grow at. This place is a godsend!

This place is a hidden gem in West LA. I discovered this shop via a website for a bike accessory I was interested in, and Penuel was listed as a dealer. After a quick phone call and a visit, George was installing a demo saddle for me at no cost. Many other shops in town charge money to demo saddles (with the cost usually being put towards purchase). All I had to do was leave my old saddle and thats it! George is also extremely knowledgeable regarding the sport and is a rider himself. We had a great conversation regarding saddles and riding before I left.
Great place, great owner, and I will definitely be returning.
If you are a cyclist that lives on the west side. Definitely come to this shop for your needs. Its hands down better than any of the other shops on this side of town.

I took the leap of faith to invest in a real bike and get into serious cycling. I purchased my GH from George and continue to go to him for the many issues that come with serious cycling. I depend on George for knowledge and guidance. I wish the stock was better but for the serious cyclist George is one of the best…

I decided to invest in a bike and was referred to this shop. I am so pleased with the service I received and continue to receive. George was very knowledgeable and provided the best customer service. I am a new rider and he has assisted me with not only purchasing a bicycle but he also connected me with riders in my area. This is definitely my go to bike shop!

I love how these guys run their shop. Good people doing good work in a part of town where a bike shop is needed. Thanks Penuel! I hope your business keeps growing!

Horrible place they have no stock, I purchased training wheels for my daughter that did not fit. Because they were assembled they were now used and this rip off owner had 20% of the refund. Never again

Not only is my bike my favorite way to get around it also doubles as my primary mode of transportation so glad I found this place and got it serviced here (chain snaps suck!) cheaper and closer than other shops in the area friendly service I’ll be back for a new set of brakes and tires real soon!!! Thanks for breathing a little more life into an old friend!

Would I actually drive from San Francisco to L.A. to have George work on my bike? You betcha! While I also have a good local mechanic in the Bay Area, the quality of service I have experienced at Penuel Bicycles is such that I am indeed willing to drive nearly 400 miles to support this business. George knows bikes and has a great reputation for being a fair, honest, and knowledgeable business owner. As a BH dealer, I cannot think of who better to work on my BH Cristal race bike. He knows these bikes well and I can trust that he will keep her in top shape. He is great for answering my questions by phone and online, too, and saves me money by not selling me things I do not need. Thanks, George!

I live in Ladera Heights and was so happy to find a shop in the nearby neighborhood. This is a great bicycle shop! Friendly service, very professional and knowledgeable about necessary servicing. Pricing was extremely fair and reasonable. I hadn’t ridden my bike in about 3 years so I needed a complete «tune-​up,» as well as new tires, inner tubes and of course the brakes needed to be adjusted and checked as well. I was surprised with the price quoted, because in the past I’ve gone to Bikeology for annual tune-​ups and I’ve always felt like I’m being taken advantage of, (like the clueless woman in the auto repair shop) and their costs were very high for the service provided, as well as selling me services I really didn’t need.
George, the owner of Peneul, was very pleasant, forthright and honest about what he thought were the services necessary. The turn around time was less than 24 hours. There were no hidden charges and when I came to pick up my bike, the cobwebs were gone and it was shining like new, clean and ready for me to ride!
Additionally, George was very helpful in showing me how to remove the front wheel, reassemble it and put my bike in and out of my car (I drive a small electric 2 door Fiat). He made sure that I was able to do it by myself and felt comfortable and confident before I left.
I’d recommend Penuel Bicycles to anyone in need of a new bike or repairs on any bicycle.

Kinda pricey for a neighborhood bike shop. There are a few cheaper shops I usually prefer, but I come here when I have little time because it is close to my place. Service is good for the most part

Great neighborhood bike shop — and I live 40 minutes away. Bought my first BH bike from George. Before he helped me with my purchase, I watched him help 2 other customers, one with a saddle adjustment and the other was purchasing an accessory. I was impressed with the level of care he gave both customers, taking time to explain the adjustment & the item. He has a sign posted that says something like «I’m not ignoring you, I’m doing my job» — & that was certainly my first impression of George… someone who enjoys his job and wants to do it well. When my turn came, he took the time to explain everything I needed to know about my purchase & my options. He asked all the necessary questions to assure the bike was right for me. I never once felt that I was just another customer he was looking to grab as many bucks from as he could. On top of all that after talking to him for a while, I found he is not only very knowledgable but also just a super nice guy. If you’re looking for a BH or KHS bike, this is the place to go.

Love this new shop. George who works at the location was very helpful and answered all my questions and concerns. So to sum it up this shop had GREAT customer service and I will be returning in the future. Thank you!

Penuel bicycles is a great addition to the neighborhood. George is very knowledgeable in his craft, and very professional. The shop is large, and has a great atmosphere. The bikes are of great quality, and the service is outstanding. I took my bike recently to get tuned up, And George had it ready for me in a couple of hours. It felt like a brand new bike! Prior to taking it in, the gears were bad, chain loose, brakes, etc. George really made it easy for me to get it back in working condition. I have also purchased items there, such as a rear bike rack, new tires and tubes, and everything was installed perfectly. My experience at Penuel bicycles has always been outstanding. I do all purchases and service with Penuel, and will continue to do so.

Thank you for the SERFAS FP-​35 Floor Pump. they really are excellent product coming right out from your store! So far, I owned an excellent bike recommended and produced by Penuel Bicycles.

The Owner George Turner and His staff are the most welcoming and friendliest people you could ever come across. I have gone to other Specialty bike shops as well as major stores like Target or Sports Authority where little guys like me aren’t worth their time.
I may not be a cyclist, but today I learned a bit more than Bicycles. This stores cares about their customers.
There is no doubt that Penuel Bicyles provides a professional and unbiased standard that every industry should follow when it comes to customer service.
I have recommended Penuel Bicycles to others because of my extreme satisfaction with your service. I look forward to bring any and all cycling matters with you for years to come.

So I called George about upgrading the components on my bike. He said «You have to look at the BH bikes.» So I did. Couldn’t pass up this bike.

Awesome bike. Great service. George is the best!!!

Great local bike shop with a nice compliment of recreational bikes for kids bikes & adult bikes. The shop also caters to the serious racing enthusiast. The owner George is very knowledgeable and friendly and is more than willing to spend time with you and assist you in finding the right bike for your riding needs.
I’ve bought bikes from George and get all my service done at his shop and have always been pleased with the service. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for a place to purchase a bicycle, much friendlier and knowledgeable than the big corporate super stores.

You have to trust your local bike shop, and George, the owner of Penuel is just about the most trust worthy guy I know.
He carries a little bit of something for everyone. If you’re looking for a bike for your kid, or a sick new carbon road bike, Penuel is the place to be.
