The details that other folks have written are all true. This shop and the guys running it are FANTASTIC! I picked up a few rentals for me and some business colleagues and headed for the mountains. I am an avid cyclist and I know what I like when it comes to bikes. When Im away from home though, I still like to get a ride in and I look for something comparable. Well, MMC did deliver on a great selection. The store itself sells Trek, Niner and Scott to name a few and for my rentals, they had us in Scott Sparks. The bikes had seen some action, considering the hills were just miles away, but I had no doubt that they were well maintained. Rob set up each of the suspensions with care and made sure we were set to go blaze the desert. Being an out of towner, but looking to max out our time on trail, I ran our game plan by the team and they even delivered there. The staff provided great advice on which trails to hit at the park. I had a pretty solid plan, but it really helped that the team took the time to talk and point out tips and insights. I really felt confident to head out on my own with the guidance. Our ride was so great! In the end, this staff and store delivered on so many levels, that I will absolutely be back. If I needed to buy a bike as a local, I would absolutely buy one here! My colleagues had a great time and it would not have been possible without great customer service and a great shop! THANK YOU GUYS!

Best bike shop in Fountain Hills and surrounding area! These guys (Marty, Jake & Rob) truly love and know bikes. They always go above and beyond educating all levels of cyclist about the latest cycling products and carry multiple bike brands, clothing and accessories. Marty has done an amazing job developing/encouraging entry level cyclist to elite level racers. It’s refreshing to see a local shop host group rides and have an amazing shop were all is welcomed. Jake is amazing! I took my road and MTB bike in for a fitting at the pedal well fit studio section of the shop. With 20+ years racing bicycles, I had my hang ups on what works best for me. Jake was very patient and listened to my concerns. After a very comprehensive zero pressure fitting, Jake made it possible for me to be more comfortable on the bike and the results yielded improved speed, endurance and comfort. Thank you guys so much for an awesome experience. Take your bike to them - you wont regret it! Dale Agar

Stopped in today to look at some shoes and pick up some nutrition. First of all what a fantastic looking and well layed out shop. Great selection of shoes and nutrition, and from what else I saw about everything a cyclist or a person interested in bikes would want. Marty helped me pick out some great shoes that were right in my budget. I also had some questions on a road bike that I have been looking at but not in the market to buy yet. Knowing this Marty still took his time to go over the bike with me and explain the differences in some of the other models and gave me more realistic recommendation on a less expensive model! Marty, Jake and the others at the shop are super knowledgeable, super nice and take their time to help and get to know you!! Although it was a ways away from where I live, the staff and shop were worth the drive and extra time it took me to get there!!

What an awesome shop and located in beautiful Fountain Hills. I feel like I am with family at MMC. The owners and staff are so knowledgeable, kind and caring. I just purchased my daughter her first bike there and she just loves her new Trek. As a physical therapist I must say Jakes Pedal Well Fit studio is superb. Jakes knowledge of bio-mechanics and bike fitting is second to none. After having a professional fit in the past but never feeling just right, Jake was able to fine tune my fit which improved my riding comfort and increased my speed and efficiency immediately. The shop organizes group road and mountain bike rides weekly which are a lot of fun. Please check out the shop and come out for a ride with us. Sincerely, Michael Reichler, D.P.T.

Dropped in mid January to explore the possibility of starting to bike again after not touching one for more than 40 years. Jake was very patient with me to determine what type of bike would suit me best. He suggested renting one first which got me hooked. Bought a great Trek mountain bike as soon as I returned the rental. I found him very knowledgeable, professional and helpful. Since my purchase, I have been back to the store many times and have always found everyone there very friendly, patient, and helpful. It is also evident that all the staff are very enthusiastic bikers. I have been so pleased with them that I bought a second Trek bike from them to take back to Canada with me in April. I highly recommend them for all your biking needs.

MMC is a place where people who are passionate, yet UNPRETENTIOUS about bikes come together. When you first step into the door, you see a welcoming coffee bar and smiling faces behind it. It feels more like a place to come and chat about your last or next great ride rather than a retail bike shop. Maybe thats because it is both. MMC is the brainchild of Brent and Jake and some good friends who realized they could run a business based on sharing what they love with others. It shows. Whether you are looking for your next bike, modifying the one you have to better fit your needs, or just looking for advice on getting started on the ground level, come here, first. They love newbies. I always leave inspired to ride more.

This outfit are tops - use these guys! We broke down (tire sidewall blowout) on the other side of Fountain Hills and called MMC. Day before New Years eve - no one is working. Without hesitating, Brent came and rescued us. While they expertly repaired our bike, we enjoyed their brand new store: comfortable chairs and video w/ espresso; first rate bikes and gear; reasonable prices. When we were fixed up, they were full of suggestions on good routes for us to take. We cannot say enough good things - Brent and his team are the real deal i cycling service and support!

I just spent a few days in the area from out of town, so I decided to stop into a bike shop to ask where theres good riding. This shop is the perfect location to start some great riding. The guys let me park my car, change, go out for a ride and wash up post-ride. I wasnt expecting any of this. They have a full changing room with shower. Very hospitable, and enjoyed talking bikes and what local life is here. I very likely will be coming back to this area, and will gladly give them my business on future visits. Great people.

I love my new bike I got at MMC. They were very accommodating to my budget and beginner skill level and set me up with a bike that not only makes me want to ride, but makes me look good while I do it! Also, the custom fitting made my ride much more comfortable! This is a great bike shop where you dont have to be a pro to get great service! I would say 10 stars but they made me stop at 5!
