I just received my order from Universal Cycles. Shipping was fast... order arrived days earlier than promised. I ordered several components... all were present and accounted for. I had a question about one of the parts and customer service response was quick and helpful. Good company to do business with... I would not hesitate to order from Universal Cycles again.

I've meant to send this message for months and I've been so busy I keep forgetting. I have been a LONG TIME client of UC because I have always been very happy with your guest relations, part availability, and pricing. Last season I had problems with 3 Conti tires falling apart (bummed me out too because I have ridden only Conti for 20 years). Without hesitation UC stood behind their products and made it right by replacing them. I am a business owner and really appreciate it when other businesses do as I do to satisfy my guests. It's the little things that keep your client base happy and coming back. UC could have easily dismissed my problem over to Conti but instead stood tall and saved me the hassle/likelihood of no resolution.

I have been Universal Cycles loyalest for several years; outstanding service, selection and support (many tech questions over the years-always get intelligent, reliable answers). Love my LBS too but UC team is outstanding resource.

I’m an avid bicyclist (I commute about 45 miles a week on my Retrovello 8 speed internal hub beach cruiser), but I didn’t know anything about you-all at Universal Cycles until I received a donation request from Feral Cat Coalition last week stating that Universal Cycles would match donations through the end of the year for the FCCO. Can’t thank you enough for stepping up and helping with such a great organization. I’ve taken on the task of caring for 8 abandoned/feral cats left on our street with the help of Feral Cat Coalition. And now that I’ve found out about you through your matching donation program, I have a new place for bike repair and maintenance. Thanks heaps! You’ll be matching my donation!

I have been a Universal customer for a while and lately you guys have been my go to shop for wheel build parts. There are not many shops that make it as easy as yours to buy individual wheel parts. Thanks,

Hi guys, A couple weeks ago you guys built a new rear wheel for me using an XT hub and Stan’s FLOW rim. Just wanted to say that you did a great job. I am not a lightweight rider and I case jumps on a regular basis (I am getting better though). :-) I took my bike to Silver Mountain Idaho and spent a day hammering on it on some of the most choppy and rocky high speed runs I have ever been on. I cased a jump with my rear wheel so hard that my ass bent the rails of my saddle so severely the saddle was pointing to the sky. I managed to prevent being totally bucked off the bike somehow too…..Then I took it to Whitefish Mountain Resort in MT for another day of lift-served riding on rocky technical runs. Then a few XC trail rides in there as well. After all the riding and SEVERE abuse, the wheel still turns perfectly true and works great!

Thanks again!

Hi guys,

Last October I ordered a wheel build using WTB ChrisCross rims & Cross Boss tubeless tires for cyclocross. I just wanted to let you know that 2,000 miles later - they have have been absolutely fantastic - bullet proof and trouble free on all kinds of rides. I think Brian built them. Great work! Many thanks,

Thank you! The package arrived this afternoon, and it's complete. So, I placed the order Sunday, and got it before the weekend, and I'll be able finish the build in six days from the order. Wow! Thanks for your help and excellent service. And as I've said before, thanks for your very complete inventory of inexpensive Shimano parts, I was able to outfit a bike for less than some spend on a derailleur and crank, with enough in the budget for an expensive seat post.

I have been a long time customer at your Ogden store. Every time I stop in Jordan is super helpful and very curtious. He really knows what customer service is, which is becoming rare these days. That is why I chose your Ogden store for the purchase of my new bike. Thank you very much for running such a great business!
