Stellar service
May 29, 2025

One of the best buying experiences in recent history! Walked into Cycle Gear and was greeted by an astonishingly helpful sales associate. This young man was a walking Wikipedia of store product knowledge. Was looking for a motorcycle helmet and walked out smiling, having purchased a helmet plus an armored jacket and gloves. Great job. And I'm thrilled with my purchases.

Updated review

My experience at Bolingbrook was outstanding, my experience at Schaumburg not as good, Schaumburg is a much larger facility and many of the young employees are trying but service is difficult, they do high volume and I think possibly that kind of volume is more than they are prepared to handle quickly and efficiently, I also think management there could possibly use an attitude adjustment.

New front & rear tire
May 29, 2025

Cycle Gear had what I was looking for, delivered in reasonable time with competitive pricing. Very disappointed in DOT manufacturing date. Rear tire will be 3 yrs old on Sept 2025. Front tire was 4 yrs old in April 2025. Bridgestone recommends replacing motorcycle tires after 7 years of age. Thinking of returning for newer tires.

Ordered a tire that was not stocked at my store. Tire came to my store in about 3 days. Service man had several tires to mount, about 5 including mine. He knocked them out quickly & I only had about 2 hours wait time. Excellent job.

As usual, the website order process worked. I found what I wanted and placed my order. I would prefer being able to place items in my cart one by one as I shopped instead of as a single step.

Sales associate Brad@ CycleGear in St.Peter MO helped me with choosing the right size of helmet that I needed. The helmet I wanted wasn't in stock, but Brad ordered for me and had it shipped directly to my house. He let me know that if I had any issues with size or anything that they would take care of it. Received the helmet today and couldn't be any better - perfect fit and looks amazing! Will definitely do more business with CycleGear!
