Shop Summary:
Excellent Shop. Best in Santa Fe for service, atmosphere, honesty, and experience.

Customer Service:
Excellent. Dave, Art and the rest of gang at MeloVelo have kept the old school friendly atmosphere of a great bike shop. Focusing on helping you instead of a sales job. Very experienced, long time Northern New Mexico mechanics and riders. A breath of fresh air to have such great experience, coupled with honesty, and located in a cool Santa Fe location.

Shop Summary:
Basic shop with all sorts of cool gear, good tires, bikes, clothes, lights...also closely affiliated with vicious cycles and you all know how sweet some of those frames are. great shop that offers everything from custom builds to basic rentals, visit mellow velo's vicious gardens for some good shirts and some food as well right across the hall. can also order you any bike you'd like, mtb, road, bmx whatever, also the shop help is a kid that goes to school here in santa fe with a ridiculous norco a-line for sale. the shop is also very good at building and truing wheels as well.

Customer Service:
Excellent customer service, Dave hooked me up with free shirts for a bike that was supposed to be built for me but was not yet finished

Shop Summary:
One of a kind custom and specialty shop in downtown Santa Fe, they also have awesome demo bikes for rent. Cool clothing, lots of maps and local advice. The perfect thing to do in downtown Santa Fe while my wife was off shopping! Fun trails located nearby as well.

Customer Service:
Amazing, I couldn't decide whether to road ride or mountain ride. I was tempted to ride an Eddy Merckx carbon road bike, but figured I'd give the local trails a shot. I was given a brand new lightweight Norco full suspension bike, and they even asked if I'd mind waiting a few extra minutes b/c they wanted to add lockon grips to the bike for my ride over the stock regular grips!

Other Comments:
Check out the Mellow Cafe next door, coffee, clif and hammer bars and gu, plus free wi-fi! Great setup all over.

Shop Summary:
Small shop near the plaza downtown. They have all the basics in gear and sweet rentals!

Customer Service:
Excellent. David's trail recommendations for the length of ride I wanted were dead-on. Glad he talked me out of Winsor, due to my time constraints. He recommended I ride Dale Ball Central and North. Perfect ride for the time I had alotted. I look forward to getting back there soon to hit the Winsor.

Other Comments:
I rented a Haro MaryXC 29er that rode perfectly. The bike had low miles and was dialed in. I definitely recommend them for rentals and advice!
