Great customer service.
Bike rentals are 5 bucks per hour or 20 for the whole day, includes helmet, removable basket (versatile, can be used as a picnic basket), bell, and lock.
If you plan to ride to LBC, give yourself at least 4 – 6 hours for stops along the route. Get lost in Naples, ride along the Long Beach bike path, explore Long Beach, etc. If you want to pick up a sandwich or burrito before you head out, check out Nicks down Main Street for to go hot or cold food items. You can also make a pit stop at Whole foods or Gelsons on the way.
If you have kids with you, stop at Mother’s Beach in Long Beach. It’s along the route.
Have fun!

The experience I had at this bike shop prior to purchase was fine. I spent a lot of time researching the beach cruiser I wanted and decided to purchase it from this shop. I made a few more purchases for accessories and had 1 tire repair.
I put my bike up for consignment as I was moving away from the beach. Every time I called in to check on it, I spoke with the owner, Dave, who assured me it was still there. When I went to pick up my bike it was no where to be found. Seth, the body builder said it may have been sold at the local hotel as they do rentals. Then he blamed it on the mechanic who was no longer there.
The emails I received from the owner, Dave, where so disrespectful and rude. Bottom line they did not take responsibility for my bike being misplaced or stolen. And to add further insult, the owner accused me of sending in an «agent» to get the bike. If any of that happened why wasn’t there a paper trail?
I’ve read the comments and see there are new owners, not surprised. I hope they are treating their customer much better than the treatment I received from the previous owner and staff.

This is the kind of independent Seal Beach business that deserves business and praise.
I was here with the old owner and the new ones, they have kept the friendly, personal vibe
but upped their game in inventory and service. I know there is at least one great carry-​over from the old shop, Aaron the mechanic, who is personable and knowledgeable.
Some of the mom and pop stores on Main St.(which I have tried to support) just don’t greet customers, and even seem suspicious you are in their store. I can only assume they depend solely on customers they know already. Usually the stores fail, and people feel sad for the poor independents that can’t make it. So I support Main St. businesses that appear to value customers-​MAIN STREET CYCLERY VALUES CUSTOMERS-​GO THERE!

What great service and great prices! Came in to have the handlebars on my old 10 speed switched out in order to have a much more comfortable ride. They explained what needed to be done and what it would run me. They got it done fast and I was surprised how reasonable the pricing was. They even took the time to check everything out, lube my chain, and even trued (straightened) out my back wheel for me! Now my bike rides like a dream and it’s super comfortable for riding around town with my dog.
Thanks so much guys!

The folks at Main Street Cyclery went above and beyond with servicing my road bike. They cater their community by selling and servicing beach cruisers, so I was hesitant purchasing a groupon for tuneup services on my Trek Lemonds road bike. However, the purchase was reasonable and the decision was worth it. Their tech did a great job fulfilling the groupon requirements and did even more so that my road bike would ride like brand new. I’m a satisfied customer and will definitely return for future services or purchases.

Very friendly owners, I walked in not knowing what bike I wanted, walked out 10 minutes later purchasing a tall frame (I’m a tall dude) bike which they found from the manufacturer’s leftover inventory from year prior saving me a lot of money on the bike. Say hi to George their dog he’s nice too

The owners are very friendly and accommodated us on arrangements to get the bikes the night before. They gave us high quality locks and the bikes were comfortable to ride and in great shape. They helped fit the bikes before we left the store and were great to work with.

The tire on my jogging stroller would not re-​inflate. The tire was obviously punctured in some way. I’m busy these days and I didn’t feel like patching up the tire up myself. The store took the stroller in today while I was running errands and it was pretty much ready right away (this was on a Monday, so I don’t know if they can provide such quick turnaround on the weekends). I have found that other bike shops in the area often turn down cheap and quick jobs like this, but these guys came through, I’m supper happy to get back to my routine.

We took our road bikes in for tune ups last Sunday and Jonathan had them ready the next day. He did a fantastic job cleaning them up, they truly sparkled! My trek shifts better in fact than when it was new. I love the new owners and look forward to going there for many more years. Reasonable prices too!

This shop is SUPER cool! I only gave 4 stars as i have not yet made a purchase, but i will say that the shop owner is really great. Super helpful. I intend to get some maintenance so i will repost soon. See my pic of the cool retro bike with the banana seat! AWESOME! I wish they made them a little bigger!

I live near Belmont SHore so tried a local bike shop where I could bike to. It was well worth the drive to Seal Beach to find Aaron and associates. They were so wonderful to work with. I needed to replace my handle bars so I would not need to lean over so far. I told them what I thought I wanted and they suggested better alternatives that I was not aware existed.
I needed the bike that night and they managed to get ot done in time, even though it was 4th of July weekend. The shop in ong beach said I had to leave my bike for about a week, before they would get ot done.
I am SO glad that I found MAIN STREET CYCLERY !
We are bringing a 2nd bike back there this week.

They are nice and get the job done. Are they the cheapest bike retailer? Probably not, but you are ultimately supporting a small business. Don’t expect to be wow’d when you walk in because the selection is limited, but what I do have to say is that I’ve had my bike for over 8 years and its still in great condition.
