I just stopped by the shop because I had an old bicycle that I thought would need new tires. Dylan offered to assist me in bringing the bicycle in. He checked the tires and found them to be in working condition but needed a minor tweak which he took care of. He then help me put the bicycle back in the car and didn’t charge anything.This shop has a nice selection of quality bicycles, a great repair shop and very positive atmosphere. I’m so glad that they are in my neighborhood!

I live in St. Augustine Beach and yes we do have bike shops but none of them made me that feel so incredibly comfortable and as Champion Cycling. Jack, Seth and Dylan went above and beyond finding me the absolute perfect road bike. They were kind and patient with my indecisiveness between buying a road bike versus tri bike. Their communication and knowledge was the perfect balance to get me on the bike that many future exciting adventures will be made on! Thanks Guys - I have found my Bike Shop!!

Not the friendliest of staff on the phone or in person. The kid working there tried to be helpful, but only after prompting from the guy in the back. The customer conversations that I overheard with swearing were unnecessary and ultimately helped me make the decision to leave the store and not buy anything. Not sure if the owner condones that, but he didn’t try to stop it either. I’ll find another shop to do business with.

I stopped by at this bike shop last Saturday with a few friends. As a beginner in the bicycle world, Dave explained how the bike shoes and padded knuckle gloves work. He also explained the pros and cons of getting tubeless tires. Dave has great customer service with great attitude! Thanks again man!

Dropped off my gravel bike for a tune up and new chain. By lunch that same day my bike was detailed, had a new chain, tires properly inflated, and ready to ride again. Thanks Jeff and Seth for the fast and thorough service!

Phil worked on my Airdyne exercise bike, and I am extremely happy with the work that he did. I have an older Airdyne that he did a tune up on, replaced chain, reconnected the computer that wasnt working and put on new hand grips. My husband and I are very grateful for the wonderful work he did at a reasonable price.Thank you Phil ! Doreen and Brian

We are lucky to have a bike shop with a GREAT team in Mandarin.I wasnt able to purchase the bike I wanted locally (Giant Revolt Adv.), but once I received it & built it up, the team checked it out, tuned it up, and shared some great advice/ feedback for an old guy new rider...These guys are the best in town...!

You only have one chance to make a first impression. I called to ask a couple simple questions. After asking the first one and getting an abrupt, curt answer I paused before beginning my next question and the man cut me off and told me he didnt have time to answer questions, he had a store full of real clients to process. I mean, Im glad business is good, but dont snap at me for asking something about a product or service you offer. You answered the phone so its reasonable to think you had a minute to answer something. Instead, offer to take my info and call me back when its more convenient, maybe? I totally understand if the store is busy. I do not understand how rude you were. I want to support a local business when I buy a new bike in the next few days. I wont be supporting Champion.

My boyfriend and I went in this weekend to purchase new bikes. The staff could not have been more helpful! My boyfriend is 6’5” and they were able to make sure he got a mouton bike that fit him comfortably! They helped me out with getting every detail I asked for in my bike. We have nothing bad to say about this shop! They will be getting our service for years to come. If you’re in the market, stop by. You will not be disappointed.

Champion cycling did a great job tuning my Trek Speed concept. I am very pleased with the quality maintenance and the friendly staff. They also have a good selection of road and mountain bikes with the necessary gear to help you hit the road or trails.

I walked in with a bike that hasnt been ridden in over 5 years and I was wanting it checked out and serviced. Jeff B. was behind the counter and greeted me right away and asked what I needed. I told him and he then proceeded to tell me what all they would do and then he put it on a stand and did a quick check while I was there and said that barring any real problems, it should be ready on Tuesday. Today is Saturday. I am really pleased so far. We shall see the results later.

Ive been purchasing bikes here for over 20 years now. The staff is always super helpful and understanding of my needs. I just purchased a bike for a foster child we learned doesnt know how to ride. Since shes too old for training wheels, the guys took the pedals off so she can learn to balance by gliding. Then they will put the pedals back on when shes ready.

Review №38

Service guy was rude and cursed at me because I asked him to exchange the tube they gave me (wrong size) for the right size. This was prior to me ever leaving the store with it. He told me that it would stretch in to which I replied I would just simply rather have the proper size. I questioned his demeanor and foul language. As he handed me the right size tube, he said that thats the way they talk to each other in California where he is from. Sorry dude, you are not in Cali anymore. Maybe you should be

Purchased a Cervelo P2 this past weekend from the Mandarin store. Prior to the purchase I had called both the Mandarin and the Beach store to get information on what they had available. I spoke to several different people including Jonathon, Chris and Paul. In each case they took the time to answer my questions and never made me feel rushed. Jonathon at the Beach store in particular gave me lots of information on a number of technical questions I had regarding some of the bikes I was considering. I finally decided to buy from the Mandarin store because it is closer to my home. I called and talked to Chris and Paul to arrange a time to come in and get the bike I wanted. When I arrived, the bike was ready and Chris provided all the help I wanted to dial in the fit. I was very pleased with the service I got, the price I paid, and the other benefits that are included with a bike purchase (90 day check up, accessory discounts, etc). I highly recommend Champion Cycling. Thank you Chris and the rest of the Champion team.

Review №44

I DON`T KNOW WHY PEOPLE ARE SAYING THE STAFF IS FRIENDLY BECAUSE EVERY TIME I WENT THERE THEY ACTED AS IF IT WAS A BOTHER TO WAIT ON ME! ALSO THEY SPEAK TO YOU IN A VERY RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL MANNER AND I EVEN BOUGHT A BICYCLE FROM THEM ONCE. MAYBE THEY FORGOT ABOUT THAT! I FINALLY GOT FED UP WITH THEIR OFFENSIVELY IMPOLITE AND ILL-MANNERED BEHAVIOR AND STOPPED GOING THERE ALTOGETHER ESPECIALLY SINCE MY LAST VISIT THERE WAS THE WORST EXPERIENCE OF ALL THE PREVIOUS TIMES I VISITED THAT BIKE SHOP IN THE MANDARIN AREA OF JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA WHEN THE MANAGER OF THE STORE GOT VERY UPSET AT ME BECAUSE I DIDN`T BUY A OVERLY PRICED ITEM THAT HE CHECKED ONLINE FOR ME AND THEN HE STARTED RAISING HIS VOICE AT ME AND SAYING THAT I OFFENDED AND INSULTED HIM BY NOT BUYING THE ITEM AFTER HE CHECKED THE PRICE FOR ME ONLINE! THESE PEOPLE CARE NOTHING ABOUT GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ALSO ARE VERY POOR SALESMEN! I EVEN INFORMED HIM AS I WAS LEAVING THE STORE THAT HE IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL TO CUSTOMERS BUT HE DIDN`T CARE WHAT I SAID AND WALKED AWAY FROM ME! I`AM USING ALL CAPITAL LETTERS IN ORDER FOR PEOPLE TO EASILY READ THIS REVIEW AND THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING FROM THIS LOCATION!

Luv these Guys....I ordered a new Giant bike from Champion about a 10 months back, when it arrived they custom fitted the bike for me and have been super helpful with any questions I have had along the way. Great repair and custom shop with amazing expertise. I will definitely buy from them again.

Review №46

Excellent customer service and bike service is found here. We moved to Mandarin in 1979 when Champion Cycling opened and theyve been our go-to bike shop since that year. Whatever the problem, Champion can solve it and they have done. Each year they tune up my bike for the summer or the fall or whenever Im ready to hit the road. They will always be my familys bike shop for as long as we remain here.

Review №47

Knowledgeable staff, but they are extremely slow. Had my bike serviced here at least three different occasions and trust me, they are slow. This shop also seems to cater to people with deep wallets over the average person. Try to keep this in mind when selecting your next or first bike shop.

We have gotten a kid’s strider and myHusband purchased his mountain bike from this store. The staff is friendly, and they don’t mind kids walking around the store which is always a plus for us! They can order just about any bike you want even if it isn’t in the store at the time. Great prices as well!

Excellent service and very friendly staff. They could have suggested replacing a much more expensive setup and instead they custom ordered the failed part directly from the manufacturer (talking about replacing and entire crank set vrs. just the crank arm that I needed.) Saved me a ton of money and Ill be back on the trails again shortly. Very impressed.

We walked in, Looking for information about some different bikes, not looking to buy right away. Jeff asks us can I help you? We responded with well we just need some info on some bikes. Jeff then says, are you going to buy a bike we responded with well not today but we want to do some research first. He then says well just come back when u are ready to buy a bike. Incredibly rude and we will not be coming back. Your a salesman, do your job.

The local bike shop I like to support. Reliably expert wrenching, great service, competitive prices, helpful staff - and on one occasion when I flatted on a ride and my spare tube failed, they even sent one of their employees out into the boonies to bring me another one!

Review №65

Terrible, Terrible service. The servicemen there were rude and seemed to exude a holyer than thou sport biker attitude. I totally understand that sport bicyclists think their chosen sport as a great calling. But it totally deters every other type of athlete who utilize biking as an extention to their training and the every day hero who just dont want to contribute to the mass of carbon monoxide producing cars.
