My gf recommended them, as they helped her with a used bike that she purchased on Offer Up. I went there after visiting another shop and spoke with Kevin. He happened to have time to help me immediately....threw my bike up on the rack, and looked it over so I could assess whether it needed a tune up and if it was worth to fix. He gave me very practical, but thorough answers, checked the air in the tires and lubed the chain for free, and quickly installed a new (inexpensive) component that I purchased, so I could ride it out of the shop right away. There was no pressure for additional goods/services and the prices were very reasonable for what I got. He was very friendly and Ill definitely return there based on my first experience. Thanks!
Absolutely fantastic place to take your bike, their service stuff is super friendly. I walked in with a question and walked out with everything I needed to fix my bike. The people who work at the store are very knowledgeable and excited to help. I would recommend this store as a bike shop for anyone looking for knowledgeable staff and a quick turnaround on their bike!
This shop has a great friendly feel to it. I’ve taken my bike here a few times to address minor issues. Maybe it’s just been slow but they’ve always gotten to it really quickly and at a very reasonable cost. I’ll definitely be taking my bikes here in the future for whatever work needs to be done.
Sam runs a great shop, excellent communication, honest, thorough, and always does right by his customers. He’s cultivated a great local community vibe. I won’t take my mountain bike (and my snowboards) anywhere else but stubborn goat. Thanks so much guys and keep up the amazing service you provide to our community!!
Extremely welcoming and knowledgable bike shop. Always fast and friendly service. Proud to call them my new bike store!
These guys are awesome. We were treated very respectfully (which is not the case at many bike shops, hate to say it). Prices were right. Passion is there. Every strong community deserves a bike shop like this.
Excellent service and very polite! They serviced my gravity mountain bike and I am very satisfied. I have found a go-to bike shop. I highly recommend them.
We bought the last bike in the store. Apparently, bicycles are a hot commodity right now. These guys are knowledgeable, friendly, and reasonably priced. We walked out of there with a new bike, kid seat, and lock. Go check them out!
The go to bike shop in San Diego area. The team here are very knowledgeable and have great customer service. The selection of bikes available to purchase is smaller however they are probably the bikes you should be looking at. They always do their best to get you in and fixed up as quick as possible. Thanks Sam and team.
These guys are always great and helpful! Needed a quick service today on my old faithful Merlin extralight, they got me taken care of and back out on the road! I appreciate you guys🙏🏼✊🏼
Fast, friendly, fair prices
Absolutely fantastic service. I always bring my skis here for waxing, and they recently did a new binding install. Extremely professional and committed customer service. I wouldnt dare go anywhere else.
I went on a ride and popped my tube. Luckily, these guys weren’t too far away from me...They set me up with a patch kit but the hole ended up being too big for the job, and so, I went with a new tube for a great price. Furthermore, I didn’t have my wallet with me so they gave me their complete trust to come back and pay for what I received. Great people, great local shop. Definitely my new go-to and will happily support these guys. Be sure to check them out!!
Every time I come in these guys are always working hard on something. More importantly these gents stop what they are working on to help you no matter what! They are knowledgeable and concise. Im glad I feel comfortable coming back because I do dumb stuff to my bike and they fix it with bike swag. Those guys at Stubborn Goat definitely have my vote!
So chill and helpful. I walked in all flustered and announced rudely Hey Im that guy that called about the flat! Relised immediately they were busy and apologized but they still kept it chill profess (I however felt embarrassed sorry and thank you guys!) So coming back here all the way from normal heights!
Professional service. Always helpful employees! They did even more than I asked. I definitely will use that store for all my needs!
Your friendly neighborhood bicycle store. From the first visit I knew I’d found my people. Sam the proprietor is a good guy. His wife and mother may know different but for our purposes he’s heaven sent. Sam likes bikes and he likes people who like bikes. That’s a pretty good recipe for success. If this store was fictional it’d be in a place like South Park and it’d be owned by Sam. But lucky for us it’s flesh and bone and right here in our very own South Park and as far as I can tell Sam is not a robot or hologram or part of an elaborate deep state program that’s doing nefarious things we haven’t figured out yet. Actually I hope he’s a clone and the real Sam is out riding his bike. Oh and I bought a bike here and get my other bikes serviced here. Go see Sam.
They had what I needed and had me out in under 1 hour. Very happy to help and answer questions could not be happier.
People were very quick to help. Very nice and courtious
Stopped by for a quick adjustment to my tri bike. Even though they are backed up for major work for a few weeks, they helped me on the spot. What a great shop with a super friendly staff! Highly recommend!
Gone in a few times and always solid customer service. My cousins say the same thing and actaully gave me the recommendation. Easy parking behind in the alley. (Overflow parking in the jack in the box lot. Dont recommend if you plan on staying long) Easy to miss if youre not looking for it, but worth checking out.
Superb repair (core shot) on my Capita Charlie Slasher Snowboard. They also tuned and waxed my board. Best wax job ever. I don’t know what kind of wax they use but it was super fast all season. The tuning on my board was as sharp as a knife in steep hard pack conditions at SNOWBIRD. These guys will wax and tune all my boards from now on. A++
They were able to get my ski bindings mounted and my new skis waxed the same day I called, which was a huge lifesaver given I was trying to go skiing the next day. Would definitely come here again for anything else I need that’s ski-related!
Great service and a friendly knowledgeable staff. Bought a couple tubes from them and they helped me when I came back the next day with issues 👍
Great place. Fixed my flat tire in a flash. Nice people.
Amazing shop right in the neighborhood. They are so friendly, knowledgeable and an amazing resource. I came to get my flat tire fixed and they got it done in 15 minutes for under $12. Theyre amazing!
Awesome spot. These guys are knowledgeable, down to earth, and don’t try to sell you on parts or services you don’t need.On top of that they have a quick turnaround time.
Great shop. Awesome customer service even even they didnt have what I needed. Would recommend and go back.
This past weekend was my first time visiting SGBS. They changed out both of my bikes inner tubes on the same day for about $23 total. What I was most impressed with was their customer service. Even when swamped, I noticed how they greeted every customer who came into the shop including a young 10 y/o boy who came in alone. Everyone was acknowledged and treated respectfully which I greatly admired. I will definitely come back to SGBS for any of my bike needs. I am unsure whether they have a designated parking lot but there is plenty of residential parking around although you make have to cross a short (but busy) intersection.
Thank you guys for being open and fixing my flat so quick. I’ll definitely come back. :)
My first time going in, I knew I was in the right place for all of my bike needs. Sam is a very honest man. What service I thought I needed, Sam said, “to be honest, this will be simple. You don’t need to spend extra money.” WOW... it’s very rare to find an honest business these days.
These guys were really helpful. I even broke a bell installing it and they gave me a new one for free.
The Stubborn Goat was great! Helpful hint, theres parking in the back! This made it much easier to get in and out of the place as parking on the front street is very difficult. Gentleman running the shop was able to grab everything I needed in just a mirror minute. I had bought a used mountain bike for my girlfriend and neutral place lots of components. Within 5 minutes I was done checked out and on my way! He even gave me some helpful hints about installation. Great job I highly recommend it... Not a hipster fixie Shop. This is a real bike shop...
Sam cant be beat for great work, fair prices, and outstanding customer service.
I could not find anyone to fix my bike. I called them and Sam the owner knew exactly my bike and where he could find the parts and how to fix it. Sam does incredible work and at the most honest prices. This guy is the real thing! Thanks Sam.
Great people and amazing service
This was my first time going to the Stubborn Goat and I am so happy I did. The atmosphere is friendly and kick-back, the service is stellar and they didn’t try to sell me anything I didn’t need. My skis look great!!!!! I can’t wait to go try them out!! Thank you so much!!!
I cannot speak highly enough of Sam and the service he gives. I wish there was a 6 star option. His workmanship is fantastic, nothing is ever too difficult, he charges really fair prices and is also a really nice guy. Dont go anywhere else in San Diego.
So glad theres a shop close by that does bikes AND snowboard service. After the Sports Chalet closed, I was taking my board up to REI—a good place, but a schlep. Hems you in during rush hour, it does.Friendly service. Good prices. And the only place in Midtown for powder hounds. Not THAT kind of powder.Sickos.
I’ve used this bike shop a couple of times for repairs/maintenance on my tri bike and road bike. The owner is super helpful, knowledgeable and meticulous in his work. It’s so terrific to have a local bike shop where the work is top notch.
Excellent customer service and you can tell right away Sam knows a lot about bikes. Fixed my bike at a very reasonable price definitely will recommend this shop for anyone who needs bicycle repairs. Thank you again
Sam will get your bike dialed in. Honest shop with a skilled craftsman. Also a great selection of goods.
Sam is my new go-to guy for bike repairs. Hes a genuine and thoughtful guy who gets the job done right at a reasonable price. Nice location too.
Knowledgeable owner. Friendly and helpful. Prices are legit and work is primo superb!
Love this bike shop. Great service and helpful advice. Stubborn Goat is now our go-to bike shop.
Guy was helpful, resonantly priced, fast, friendly and knowledgeable. What more could you want?
Sam is the best! He is quick to fix your bike problems and is as honest as they come.
Great shop! Super helpful and friendly. Wether you have a $100 Craigslist beater bike or $7k carbon, you get treated as equal. Rare thing as far as bike shops these days. Quality, honest, and reliable service.
Good price, good service, good value
All bike shops are not created equal. Took my bike in to get tuned and it rides like new, for a great price and with friendly service! From fixing an old bird to putting together a brand new rig, mountain, road, or anything inbetween, you definitely want someone who is super knowlegable, like Sam, to work on it
Brought skis and a board in for a tune up. Excellent customer service. Great communication. Will happily bring my bike in as needed. Thank you!!!
Awesome service, love these guys
Love this place. The owner is very knowledgeable as well as a nice guy.
Excellent, fast service. Really reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend.
Beautiful shop, helped us get our bikes nice and clean while on a trip from out of state. Incredible service.
Great shop
They hooked me up with a fresh wax and tune up on my snowboard. Price was really good too.
Pleasant environment and courtesy sets them apart from other bike shops
Great bike shop and very knowledgeable of old vintage roadbikes. Great prices and fair labor costs.
Fast, friendly and thorough service from a knowledgeable and passionate guy. Can’t go wrong.
Local shop, knowledgeable staff and a rapid service.
Sam is great, knows his stuff, and makes time to do it right. Thanks so much!
Legit. Have used several times for my road bike. Always professional, honest, and friendly.
Sam is always very helpful and knows his bikes!
My go to bike shop I previously went to North Park Bike Shop and was disappointed in the lack of enthusiasm for not wanting my business or any others I witnessed. Sam took care of me and even offered me a bottle of water! I totally recommend this shop - WORD.
Solid service, in a timely manner
Great place for ski and snowboard service
Exceptional customer service!
Always helpful, great service
Friendly, quick
