The best customer service! I came in 9 months after purchasing my bike there for a problem I was having with bike seat twisting despite us tightening it repeatedly. They showed me what I was doing wrong and how it was the bike seat stem that was loose, not the seat. They corrected the problem for me. Then they helped me purchase a water bottle holder and recommended where I should install it. Wonderful customer service! I can tell that everyone loves their job and love the public that they deal with. Everyone should buy their bikes there. They wont regret it.
I am new to the area so wasnt sure where to take my bike for repair. After reading the great reviews for Orchid Island Bikes and Kayaks I decided to take it there, and I wasnt disappointed. I was welcomed immediately and they identified the problem quickly. It was fixed and serviced within 24 hours. I would definitely recommend them for their friendliness, expertise, efficiency and value for money.
Great knowledgeable staff and they carry all of the parts and accessories that I need for my hobie kayak 👍
Matt was amazing to work with and he helped us find the perfect bikes for our family!
Every time I have gone into this store, I’ve had good experiences! I just bought a bike from them (I know, crazy during this time in a worldwide bike shortage) and had a rough idea of what I wanted. They had just received a shipment of bikes but they weren’t built yet. I was told it may take a couple of days for them to build but they called me back in a few hours and now I have a very beautiful bike that rides so smoothly. They also said I could get a free tune up in a few months!
Great service, had my bike tuned up and they had it done super quick
My experience there involved looking at a bike which I did not buy there, and then months later looking at Kayaks and buying one there along with related equipment. They are what a dealer of this sort should be. Good selection, and a knowledgeable, helpful, low pressure sales staff (including the owner himself). After-sale experience was also good. Highly recommended.
Update: these guys called me up and delivered a new bike an hour after I left the review, below. Great service, thanks guys!Rented a trek bike here for a week, for a little under $100. I wanted to try the bike out before potentially purchasing. The bike was delivered with bald tires, a rusted chain, poor brakes, and gears that were not very smooth. The bike looked as though it was left outside for a year, got rusted, and they did zero maintenance on it to get it into a safe, rideable, and enjoyable condition. I was very surprised that a legitimate bike shop would rent out a bike in this condition. Lube the chain, at the very least, and replace the bald tires. To their credit, I have not brought this up to their management team; so if they respond appropriately I may change this rating.
I hadn’t ridden a bike in many years and they were super helpful. Explained different types of bikes and let me test ride them. Very friendly and patient. With their help I found the perfect bike. Service department is awesome too. I will be bringing my bike there for regular maintenance. Truly a pleasure shopping there.
Great service and very knowledgeable staff. I was able to test drive the bikes and found the one for me. Very satisfied and highly recommend them to anyone looing for a bike. The manager is super cool as well.
Johnny recommended a saddle for me, and it is probably the most comfortable saddle I have ever owned. Johnny ROCKS! He even installed it on my post. Awesome customer service.
Nice group but be careful. In march I had a down payment to get a Hobie Tandem Island in April. They force 50% down. So due to some financial issues I came to get my deposit back. They charged a restocking fee to cover credit card costs. To me its wrong to force me to lose money for something I never received. Especially because of the amount. I wouldnt have this problem if they only wanted $100 for the deposit.Initially over the phone they were going to take the hit. Not in person. So I will buy a Hobie likely in a year or less but I will not go to them since I have already lost $400 without a single purchase. That is some of the worse customer service I have ever seen.
They were great! They fixed my bike quickly and had me back on the saddle in no time! They were friendly and professional. I will definitely be back and would recommend this shop over any other shop in Vero. 👍👍👍👍
It was our first time in and my husband’s bike wheel needed repaired. The staff assisted me immediately, quickly assessed and diagnosed the issue and explained my options. They replaced the wheel quickly with ease and skill, all while being super friendly. Exceptional service and we will for sure be back with any service needs we may have.
Friendly, competent, and helpful as a neighborhood bike shop, with the product knowledge of a chain store. I have enjoyed going there for years for maintenance, repairs, and inventory.
I bought a Hobie PA 17T from these guys and Joe really helped me out by helping me get the boat on my trailer and ensuring that it was secure before I left. The other staff (Cindy) seemed super friendly, helpful and engaging. I would definitely shop here again. I would have them given 5 stars if someone would have offered to do a walk through of the boat with me.
Malcom was very helpful, knowledgeable and passionate about the bike he sold us. Very easy sale and informative.
Such a great experience! We came in to purchase my 7 yr old a bike and the staff was so helpful and kind. They stopped what they were doing to assemble her bike as we were visiting from out of town, and had a tight timeline. It was so appreciated!
Joe was great. Knowledgeable and professional. Hobie parts available here. Saved our yakking trip. Thanks again!
Great service and products in stock. I called several kayak stores across the nation without finding the parts I needed but I finally found Orchid Island and they had them in stock and shipped them out quickly. Next time Ill call them first.
Sales team is very knowledgeable and helpful. Each trip we have been allowed to browse freely while someone has always been accessible to answer questions. The service team is great, extremely knowledgeable and efficient.We will always come here for our biking, kayak and paddleboard needs.
Needed a good tune-up. Chain kept slipping off when changing gears, handle bars needed tightening, and needed a new seat. Now like a new bike. Very knowledgeable, professional, and prompt service! Happy as a clam! 😏
My wife’s Trek bicycle needed some attention, the tires were not holding air. I came in with the bike and was greeted immediately with offer to help.The Service Tech was asked about the issue and he offered to check for leaks. A few minutes later he recommended one tube be replaced. I asked for both and he got the job done in about 15 minutes.I can’t guarantee that they’ll always be able to be that fast but I got exactly what I needed and got back to my day. Awesomely attitudes by everyone including the owner, Malcolm Allen who said hello.
5 star experience. Every single person was helpful, took as much time as we needed, answered all question or found someone who could. Nothing was to big or small for them. We bought an electric trike and will be buying a 2 wheel very soon. They are busy so taking time like they did was amazing.
The orchid Island team is a class act.I was seeking a hard to find bicycle and they were the kindest of any bicycle shop I spoke to.Far and away the best resource in Vero beach. Knowledgeable, Polite, kind, informative, happy, and willing to be helpful. Far superior to the lackadaisical competition. Becky Straley
I really enjoyed my experience at orchid Island bikes and kayaks.. Ive been searching for days on the internet for a used kayak and I decided to go in there to see what I can find.. I went back to the kayak area and met Joe. I must have been there for about an hour and pretty much got every bit of the info that I could possibly ask about from Joe hes very knowledgeable on The kayaks just for the simple fact that hes been on every single one that they ever sell so he has a very wide range on what would work for who when they come in looking for a kayak.. I straight went in the next day and bought a kayak and asked for Joe when I went in.. he totally made the sale the day before and I absolutely knew it I had to go back in the next day to make my purchase and even on a windy day the following morning I had to try my new kayak out the wind beat me to death but I was absolutely tickled about my new kayak and I really appreciate Joes honesty and knowledge.. he also goes out and lets people do a trial basis on The kayaks to see if thats exactly what they want before they buy it but I knew that whatever I picked I would be happy with.. he shot everything straight with me and I thought that was very awesome of him hes a very good worker hes dedicated to his job and hes a huge asset to orchid Island bikes and kayaks kudos to you Joe!!!! And thank you for the wonderful experience orchid Island bikes and kayaks.
I had trouble finding a bike related product. No one had what I needed anywhere in the U.S., but Orchid bikes came up in my web search for this item. I spoke with Michael and he confirmed he had it. He made the sale over the phone and sent it out the same day (yesterday) - I received it today! Now that’s awesome! Thank you!
Leaving for camping/trail riding trip Christmas afternoon. Came in 3 days before Christmas needing service on my 10+ yr old mountain bike that was not shifting properly. Place was packed with customers. I hear, “can I help you” from a counter full of people. I explain my situation. A guy comes out to my Jeep, takes my bike inside, motions to a tech and they throw bike up on stand. In 5 minutes it was diagnosed, including chain, cassette and cables. He took all info and said they’ll try to have it by Christmas eave. The next day by 4:00pm I received a text that bike was ready. Out of there including service, new parts, labor, everything for less than a hundred bucks. In this day and age of bike shops that snub you if your not riding/racing one of their 5-10K plus bikes, it was refreshing to walk in, get waited on immediately, talk to a knowledgeable tech, get the job done quickly and out the door at a reasonable price. All of your staff I encountered were friendly, professional, and just plain on it! Thank you. You have just earned a new customer.
Really fast service, and very helpful staff.
Very helpful shop. I drove 2.5 hours to get my bike which was sold out everywhere. They assembled it for me within the hour. There was never any high-pressure sales pitches or anything like that. Couldnt recommend this shop enough. Thanks!
I arrived with two bikes which were shipped to me from Indiana (disassembled) in the mist of a pandemic with lots of back work in the repair shop.NO PROBLEMIn just a few days, both we’re reassembled perfectly. Many thanks for helping us out. Next year, instead of mailing bikes down, I’ll just buy a new one from you guys.You’re the best!
Place is one mistake after another. Customer beware. Their answer to me telling them my knee hurt after them lowering my seat unbeknownst to me was: You rode it that way? Not: Im so sorry. Who measures their seat height before and after it goes to the shop? What? I found out after I rode it and experienced knee pain. Then I measured it. Who sends out a bike with no air in the tires? Who reversers the customers brake lines? Mix ups and mistakes happen. These folks seem to have/make a bunch of them. Its cool though, cause as I was told: We have many happy customers. Ok, but you failed this one multiple times.
Very helpful and came up with a solution with used good-condition parts to save money
OIB&K had the Electra Townie I was looking for while my #1 regular Townie is being rebuilt at a competitors shop. I ride 26-miles daily so my bikes get used a lot. Thank god there was one available and the tall is actually more comfortable than my regular version. These bikes are great for exercise and beach (A1A) cruising. Im not into being bent over and Im not doing the Tour-de-France. If you want a comfort ride for daily exercise, get a Townie. Orchid did a great job getting mine put together fast and off I went.
I was very happy with my experience at Orchid Island Bikes and Kayaks. The staff is friendly, knowledgable and it was a pleasure purchasing my bike there. They made sure it fit me and took a lot of time teaching me about the bike and getting it fit to my needs. They follow up on what they say. I had called awhile back and they promised to call when they got what I was looking for in stock and they did. Store was clean and they had lots of choices as well as accessories. The people who work there make it a GREAT place.
Went into Orchid Bikes looking for a cruiser. I was greeted by a sales person who provided information on the cruiser and hybrid bikes. He asked what type of riding I was planning and explained the different features of the bikes. He took 2 bikes out for me to try. After a few rides I chose the Townie bike, it offered me a comfortable ride allowing me to keep my back straight and no discomfort on my knees or hips with the foot forward designI love my Townie! I highly recommend Orchid Bikes and Kayaks.
Everyone was nice and helpful! They did a great job repairing my bike in a timely manner!!
Fantastic experience ... salesman was great.. very knowledgeable and polite . no pressure whatsoever..
A very good bike and kayak store. Very helpful, friendly, had exactly what I needed
Red took the time, fixed my trigger shifter and saved me some money. Many others would have blown me off or said come back later. Its experiences like this that make Orchid the best bike shop on the Treasure Coast.
Great service, salesman even came out to help put a roof rack I purchased on my car, load the kayak I bought, and strap it down. You dont get this kind of service anywhere else. Their prices and quality are very competitive too, you wont overpay.
Great customer service. They helped me order the perfect bike and let me know as soon as it arrived!
Very knowledgeable and helpful in choosing a bike rack for our car. Took the time to install the rack on our car and made sure the bike fit properly on the rack. Made sure we were completely satisfied with the rack before finalizing the purchase. Great experience.
Friendly people with great service. Will recommend whenever possible
I was very pleased with the attention and service that I received at Orchid Island Bikes and Kayaks in Vero Beach. I purchased a new recumbent trike after much research and looking at various sources and I found that my local shop was my best choice offering excellent service and quite a number of choices. I would recommend Orchid Island Bikes and Kayaks to family and friends if they are considering a purchase of a bicycle, kayak or accessories for these items.
My husband had placed a deposit at another local bike shop the second week of November for our child bike for Christmas. My husband was told the bike would come in Dec 3rd. My husband called to follow up and they told him the bike would not come in until Feb 2021 ! With Christmas right sound the corner we were worried that we would have no bike. My husband called Orchid Island Bikes after 5 pm when he got off work the store was closed but God is good and Malcolm the owner happened to pick up ! Malcolm checked and verified they had the bike in stock !!! I called the next business day and placed a deposit for the bike and spoke to Malcolm who was fantastic !!! He had our bike built and ready in 1 day for pick up ! Thank you Malcolm and all your staff !!! Everyone was courteous !!! Thank you to the young man who placed our bike in my trunk ! Malcolm is fantastic and his store is wonderful !!! If I could give them 10 stars I would !!! Honest and reliable !!!
Orchid Island Bikes is the best! The folks there will help you get back on the road in a cheerful and knowledgeable way! I highly recommend Orchid Island Bikes!
Love our Townie Bikes that we got from you about a year ago. Your service is excellent. I called to see about the 1 year free maintenance check up and you picked up the bikes that day, and returned them the next day. No complaints. The bike feels like new again. Thanks for the great job.
I cant say enough nice things about Orchid. They have always given me great service at fair prices. They have turned difficult bike issues around in minutes while I stood there and wiatied. They have parts stocked in depth too. Great folks. I am a steady and happy customer.
Orchid Island was a great resource for information, bike rentals, kayak equipment. Excellent service and staff. I highly recommend.
Dropped my bike off, everyone was super friendly and helpful. When I picked it up, I had a question about the back tire. They admitted it should have been addressed in the inspection and immediately changed the tire without charging me for the labor. Thats great customer service!
Great place to do business. Found the bike I wanted in stock. Had it set up and ready to go in a day. Also had an older bike serviced for one of my kids and work was done quickly and the bike works great.
Everyone we encounter is helpful, informative and genuinely nice. They are great about answering our questions even when we are just looking.
Great customer serviceExcellent selectionOutstanding experience
Had best time trying out the 3 wheel tricycle. Friendly owner. Great people working there. We cant wait for me to be able to ride around my neighborhood. I will always recommend them. Excellent all around! Im so blessed my early Christmas present from my husband
They are the best. So helpful and kind. Yhey answered all of our questions and helped with so much more information. I highly recommend this as everybodys bike shop
These guys are Wonderful!! Especially Matt- he rocks! So accommodating and fun!
Had a good experience regarding purchase of kayak for my partner.Staff was knowledgeable, I have owned different kayaks in the past so it was good communication and price that made deal better. They have a good selection of kayaks and many accessories for comfort.Dave
Owner and staff are very nice and professional bought new bike and serviced older bike very happy with outcome. I wish they had customer loyalty promos or specials.
Friendly, helpful service. Quick assembly and delivery and quality products!
Great service and fabulous staff.
Fast friendly expert service at a great value!
Mike is the best! If you go into this store, definitely ask for him. His heart is in his work. He is extremely helpful, knowledgeable, respectful, and pleasant to work with. We couldn’t be happier about the experience we had buying our Trek verse and Electra cruiser. He took his time to explain our options, how the bikes worked, and to give us tips and feedback to make the rides even more enjoyable.
Wonderful experience selecting a new bike. At age 68, had not ridden a bike in almost 20 years. Salesman was extremely helpful fitting the bike to me. He gave me the confidence to get on the bike; and I am so happy to say, Im able to ride again.
I have purchased a Hobie kayak and have had all of our bikes serviced here as well. When walking through the door and being greeted with in seconds you can tell this is a top notch operation. Joe in Kayaks has serviced and installed multiple upgrades to my Hobie PA 14. What a great asset he is. The bike Tech named Red just completed repairs and tune ups on THREE OF OUR BIKES. The turn around time for repairs was was quick and painless. Kudos to Red and the rest of Malcolms crew!! I highly recommend this place to everyone. L.R.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They helped me make a decision I’m very happy with, without pressure or remorse. I would absolutely recommend and will return.
I brought my bike in for service. Very impressed with the integrity and honesty of the staff! After a quick check, they told me that my bike really did not need service. THAT is the sign of a great local business.
Great bike shop. Very helpful staff.
We can highly recommend Orchid Island Bikes and Kayaks. We’ve purchased two bikes and 2 kayaks from them. They are helpful, knowledgeable, and very accommodating. We purchased the kayaks before we had a place to safely store them and they were kind enough to hang on to them for a while until we could’ve pick them up. We’ve rented kayaks and bikes from them numerous times when we’ve had guests and they have always been prompt on delivery and pickup! Great service!
Great customer service! Sensible and Good products.
A great end to end experience from a friendly and helpful answer to my questions, quick and high quality repair of my tire and fair pricing. I recently moved to the area. This is where I am coming for my biking needs!
Joe was awesome to work with, extremely knowledgeable. Great to be able to try the kayaks before purchasing.
OUTSTANDING Customer treatment!!! Matt and Joe could not have been more friendly!
Check em out! You wont regret it!
Orchid Island Bikes has provided my son with great bikes and service over the years. They have quality products at competitive prices and go the extra mile for their loyal customers. My son in Miami broke his rear derailleur hanger. All the regular suppliers - including Trek dealers - did not have the hanger in stock. I made a call to Orchid and they had it! They shipped it to the Miami bike shop so that my son can get back riding. Thank you to Michael at Orchid Island.
It’s always a pleasant experience with the professionals at Orchid Island. We love our new mountain bike. They helped guide us on which model would be best for the local parks that are bit sandy. The Trek Roscoe is perfect. We also love our Hobie mirage kayaks. Peddle kayaks are the way to go!
They did a great job sizing my daughter for the right size bike and the bike itself although a little pricy is extremely high quality. will buy my next bike here.
Great local company, quick service and thorough with the bike repairs and tune up! Highly recommend!
Great bike shop. Super friendly and attentive sales team. Had the bike I wanted and they were willing to hold it until I got there. I noticed that they had two people checking the bike out to make sure everything was right before they gave it to us. Wife was very happy and we were very impressed. Thanks!
My apologies for a delayed review as well as a current review. My husband and I have purchased 3 Bicycles in the past 3 months. I am thankful for great customer service and the inventory quality of local business over big box stores. Thank you for your continued service during these interesting times. We will enjoy our family bicycle rides and most certainly support your business in the future!
Orchid island is the best bike shop around. They are so friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Every staff member truly cares about finding the right bike for you.
Malcolm was very helpful and knowledgeable. He spent a great deal of time answering all of my questions before my purchase and after my purchase. I highly recommend this business
Excellent service from the most friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.
I had a great experience with OIB&K in acquiring 2 bikes for my house and they delivered them right to my doorstep!! 👍🏻
Bailey walked us through each feature until help arrived and then got the paperwork going while we finished learning about each and every button on Terrys new Kayak. I liked that the owner came by and talked with us too. We were in and out in record time without feeling rushed or left wondering how to use our kayak. Nice Job Gang!
Exceptional service and phenomenal selection/quality of bikes. I will definitely be back again!
Went looking for an electric bike. They were great, spent all afternoon with us until we found the right bikes and adjusted them so we were perfectly comfortable.
I put a deposit down on my bike and drove down from Myrtle Beach. Over the phone I received great customer service and was able to ask several questions without feeling like I was bothering the guy. My experience when I arrived to pickup the bike wasnt as good. In the past, dealing with my local Trek dealer, the bike seat height is checked based on my height. They quickly run through the components of the bike and have me ride it outside with an employee standing by to make sure Im satisfied. In this case when I showed up the bike was rolled to me, my money was taken and I was handed a receipt. It was only after I got into the parking lot and realized the wrong tires were on it and I went back in that anyone spoke 2 sentences to me and that was the guy from the back... i forget his name but hes the guy that orders everything and he was great. He said he put in a order through Trek to have the correct tires sent to my home which im 50/50 on whether or not ill ever receive.
Excellent customer service
I went in to look at new bikes. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and offered assistance. A very friendly and knowledgeable salesman asked a few questions about my riding style and instantly he knew what bike was perfect for me. I didn’t realize it just then but it was the perfect bike for me and it was much more affordable than I had anticipated.At no point did he try to upsell me or point me to the more expensive line of bikes.Through the whole sales process he had answers and recommendations for all of my questions.I have had the same experience in the kayak section of the store as well. No pressure sales, just friendly assistance and answers.Can’t be more impressed with my experience at this store.
Time for a quick favor?Reviews are so important for our business. Please take a moment to share a few words about your experience - comments are greatly appreciated!Your service department had everything needed to completely overhaul our old bikes in just days. Michael was able to completely explain things to us. The price was very fair compared to having to purchase new bikes. Our older bikes are as good, if not better than new.
I visited the store today. I am in the market for a new kayak paddle. I spent maybe 10 minutes in the store. There wasn’t much of a selection. I understand it’s been difficult to get new stock with Covid-19 knocking out most manufacturing facilities. That’s not the reason for the two star. The gentleman working the kayak section pretty much ignored me. He was putting together roof racks. He didn’t even get up just spoke from the floor. I wanted to buy local, I didn’t even care that it would take 6 weeks to get a paddle but some customer service would have been nice. Thankfully, another gentleman noticed me and greeted me. I decided to purchase elsewhere.
Friendly helpful staff. work done quickly and competently
They’s guys have been so unbelievably helpful and friendly every time I’ve been in. Recently I needed a small part for my sons bike on a whim, they wouldn’t even let me pay for it! Don’t waste your time going any place else in Vero! Thanks again guys!
