Had a great ride with Johnny and his mates. Awesome trails that they've made themselves. Quite technical, some really nice flowy bits. Can be tricky to find a good time in Kauai as there's so much rain!
I paid John $40 to fix a broken detailer and he did a pretty good job with the bits and pieces he had laying around the shop. My only complaint is after 'fixing' the initial problem he caused another... The back brake pads were maladjusted causing the back wheel to barely move. I ended up leaving the bike along side the road because it had become a safety issue and I didn't want to cause any physical injuries while riding along the roadside. I wouldn't recommend going back as his attitude was somewhat arrogant and unfriendly. Not my kind of guy to do business with. I suppose if you were someone with a lot of money and could afford one of his bikes he's treat you well. He told me my bike was a piece of junk, which I know was not true, but I let him run his mouth and show himself to be somewhat 'snotty'. .
I dropped by to rent a mountain bike. The 2 he had were filthy and I assume not well maintained. I tried to talk to the owner about local trails but it was like pulling teeth to get more than a 2 word answer. I ended up going to Kauai Cycle to rent for cheaper and much better.
Awesome shop! John is the man. -Sean
I read about this shop in Bike magazine and coincidentally was in the area for my parents 50th. I called John 4 times about renting bikes to go mtn biking either with a group or private ride and the guy was a flake. I even stopped in to the shop to see what was up. He told me to call him Sunday morning for the group ride. He didn't answer. He texted back saying that he didn't feel well. Not sure what to believe and I don't know why he is in this business. I was very proactive and I tried very hard to ride in Kauai.
