“I’ll tell you what, I think Fanatik is one of the best bike shops I’ve ever been to, the staff is awesome, the curation of products is top notch and the deals present are in some cases unreal. I had the pleasure of finding and purchasing the owner’s prior bike off the sales floor and am beyond stoked on the deal. Happy to call this my home shop and stoked to let the world know how sick it is! Hope everyone that see’s this decides to support their local bike shop and set themselves up for success when it comes to having fun!
Thanks again fam! ???
Keep it up!”
“They dropped everything and helped diagnose a problem, tried to fix up the current hub, then sold me a wheel for a great price when it was determined the old one was shot. Awesome!”
“They did an excellent job of restoring my aged Trek bike. They also set me up with a nice helmet and basket. These guy know a lot about bikes so you can trust their recommendations.”

“Seth at Fairhaven Bicycles is amazing! He spent about an hour with me on my initial visit. I haven't ridden in a long time (10 years), and I didn't feel like a moron when I couldn't remember the specific names of the bicycle components (stem, post, etc.). I am short, so my options of available bikes are limited. Seth didn't stear me away from what I wanted (not available) but offered multiple alternative options.
I called Fairhaven Bicycles a couple of days later, and they ordered the bike I decided on. They accepted a down-payment over the phone. As promised, the bike arrived on the day they projected.
The best part was getting the bike! I brought my saddle, shoes, and new pedals. Seth spent over an hour with me. He explained all of the components (without making me feel like an idiot). He put the saddle and pedals on, and even the cleats on my shoes. Then, he put the bike on the trainer and adjusted the seat and headset height. The reach was still too long, so he ordered a shorter stem for me.
After the bike fit, Seth explained some basic maintenance and demonstrated how to easily remove the front and back wheels. I tried on a couple of helmets, and he offered his advice regarding the safety ratings. He then helped me load the bike into my truck!
This was a big purchase for me. I appreciate the attention I received on my initial visit (before I gave them any money) and the amount of time Seth spent with me when I picked up the bike to ensure the bike was configured to fit me. I really appreciate not being pressured to purchase additional items (that I will need in the future).
I highly recommend Fairhaven Bicycles. Ask for Seth. He's the best! :) Everyone at the store was very friendly, and I'm sure they could provide amazing customer service.
Thank you, Seth. "It's not what you do. It's how you make someone feel." You are knowledgeable and kind. I posted this because I want your employer to know how valuable you are to the business.”
“Awesome peeps. Helped every step on the way to build the perfect ebike for a woman pushing 70 but needed accommodations. Everyone so helpful. Gabby answered emails on her day off.
Best. U guys”
