Bicycle & Outdoor Shoppe The

I purchased a Deuter backpack from The Outdoor Shoppe recently for a backpacking trip I'm planning to North Carolina. Being new to the sport, I really wasn't sure what qualities I was looking for in a pack, which brands were best, or how to fit myself for one. They new it all! I even checked their advice online afterwards and it was dead on. My pack, and therefore my back, feel great. Pros: Most knowledgable employees in town. more

Dont listen to any of these clowns below. The Bicycle Shoppe on Meeting is great. I have lived here for 7 years during college and post-college and have always taken my bike there for repairs, maintenance, etc. They are cool guys, always willing to help, get free air for your tires, whatever. It is a smaller shop, so you may not have the best selection, but for a downtown location, it has what you need. I got a full tune up and brand new components and gear shifts on my crappy factory Jamis mountain bike. They started the tune up right away because my bike is my main form of transportation, and did a great job. Support your local, original Bike Shoppe. You will feel better, and will not regret it. Pros: Location, Service Cons: Not a huge selection, small shop more

I believe that all the other reviews say everything. go somewhere else. not helpful, not friendly. more

don't bother triing to rent from them, way to big of a hassel. there is a place on IOP that is great. i forgot the name, but it is right on the beach. Pros: ???????? Cons: i guess if your not from there, they do not care for you more

Yesterday, I took my 4-year-old daughter with me to look at bicycles. We were the only people in the shop, and we stood around for about 10 minutes. No one acknowledged our presence. We left. Cons: Disinterested staff. more

Very, very unprofessional. I ride daily and am new to Charleston, so I thought i woud check this place out. The stuff could not have cared less about anything. It took me asking 3 different people for someone to finally help me. Even then he was more interested in his lunch than my questions. Do yourself a favor shop elsewhere! Pros: carry Specialized brand bicycles Cons: customer service more
