I was in Asheville for an annual cycling vacation, had a couple of needs arise, and visited Motion Makers. The service was top-notch, with a quick greeting at the door, friendly assistance, and a genuine appreciation for the purchases I made. Chris took the time to explain some good route options in the area we were staying, providing thorough detail. He even let me leave my bike in their care for a couple of hours while my friends bike was being repaired at MM, allowing us the chance to hit the Parkway for a bit and stray away from the car without fear of the bike being stolen while waiting for my friends bike to be ready. Ive been in a lot of shops during my cycling travels, and MM is among the very best anywhere.

I was recently on vacation in Asheville and looking forward to riding all the trails it has to offer in the area. Day 1 of my vacation, I had a spoke and derail-er break on my Specialized StumpJumper. I found motion makers on Google and brought my bike in. Tim took a look at it immediately and gave me some options for repair. Tim and Motion Makers repaired the bike in 2 days and gave me a chance to get back on the trail. If that wasnt enough, Tim gave me some great trail recommendations. The Black Mountain and "Drift" Cove were some Rad rides. Big thanks to Tim and Motion Makers!

This is an awesome shop. The folks are passionate, they take great care of everyone and the inventory is deep. I am a huge Specialized fan but they carry other cool brands (GoPro, TriggerPoint, Pisgah Works, Club Ride) that I buy but dont find in a cycle shop. Plus, if they dont have what you are looking for, they will find a way to get it to you. The location is convenient, right off I-26 and just several hundred yards from the Blue Ridge Parkway. I would only add a lounge and/or patio, coffee and private road and MTB trails to BRP.

New favorite! Ive bought bikes at 3 Asheville bike shops and Motion Makers has by far been the most helpful and professional. They are thorough, friendly, and patient. My boyfriend has also had his bike that he bought in Colorado worked on at Motion Makers and he was really happy with the mechanic - Sarah - who kept him updated with regular phone calls throughout the process. Plus isnt it great that they have a female mechanic? Motion Makers is my new favorite bike shop.

Stopped in here last weekend on a trip to Asheville when I noticed there was something wrong with my wifes mountain bike. Not knowing what was wrong, I brought it into these guys and they fixed the issue in about 10 minutes and didnt charge me anything! Purchased some stuff while I was in there as their pricing was better on some equipment I had been eyeing up elsewhere. If Im ever in Asheville again and need anything cycling-related, Ill be going to these guys!

Went in to shop around for a bike. Megan Helped me to pick right size, right accessories, explained all the futures. Answered all my questions and made it really easy to understand what Im looking at. After i shopped around and went to few other places i came back and got a bike my and her picked. Bike got checked over before i went out the door and i cant imagine having any better Experience. Ill be back for sure !!! Thanks Megan !

F-ING AWESOME!!!!! The staff was super helpful and knowledgable. They made a repair on a rear derailleur that two other bike shops couldnt fix. They gave us fantastic info on where to ride and other things to do here in Asheville. The bike rentals for our friends were of high quality and very well maintained. I will definitely be purchasing my next trail bike from yall! Thanks again.

I really like the people in this shop, BUT, I only ride vintage bikes. When I asked about finding some parts, the mechanic told me "any bike over five years old is not worth repairing. Bike technology has changed so much." Since my NEWEST bike is 25 years old, I guess I am SOL. Fortunately, I do almost all my repairs myself.

Nice bike shop with a big assortment of bikes, its seems like they prefer Specialized. Which I see as the high end bikes, so I dont usually come in to buy anything. It does look like theyre always busy and doing good though, whenever I happen to stop by. I personally go to other bike shops, that are closer to me. VHDs

Took my bike in with a complicated issue. They had it for a few days, had to order parts. The mechanic kept me up to date about the status of the bike throughout the time it was in the shop. She didnt give up until she got it right! Excellent service and communication and professional. Great shop, too.

My husband and I purchased our bikes from Motion Makers this week. Rich was patient, kind and helpful to answer all of our questions. He was very knowledgable and helped us find a bike that fit our needs and goals. We will definitely return there for future purchases.

I was in Asheville one weekend to ride the BlueRidge Parkway, and these guys helped out in a pinch. New derailleur (no Roadlink in stock) for my 32t cassette. Friendly and personable with route suggestions. Im gonna stop in whenever Im in town to ride.

These dudes dont just sell a lifestyle to coax you to buy... they live it. Thanks to Kent and Drew for the stoke and the 40 miles of gravel today AND the post ride look over of my Diverge...and the doughnut. Looking forward to next time
