Bike repair for Fullerton riders

Riding out of Fullerton mixes surfaces. The Fullerton Loop, about 11 miles around the city, links dirt trail, greenbelts and street sections, starting its southern leg on the Juanita Cooke Greenbelt. For pavement and pain there's Carbon Canyon Rd, about 5.5 miles and 685 ft from the Science Center area to the top, with short pitches near 14%.

Dirt and steep climbs wear bikes in their own way: dust in the drivetrain, sealant that dries out, and brake pads that go quickly. Fullerton customers usually come down to us for bigger jobs, including gravel and road builds and Cervélo bikes, and we go over the work and the price with you before starting.

Getting your bike to the shop from Fullerton

About 12.4 miles by road from Fullerton City Hall (303 W Commonwealth Ave) (11.7 miles in a straight line). Approximate: computed from OpenStreetMap coordinates and routing data. Traffic and your exact start point change it.

From Fullerton City Hall (303 W Commonwealth Ave): go a short way along W Commonwealth Ave and turn right onto S Harbor Blvd. Stay on Harbor for about 12 miles, through Anaheim, Garden Grove and Santa Ana. Turn left (east) on W MacArthur Blvd; the shop is about 0.3 mile along, in Suite B.

By bike, for a long day: ride south through Anaheim to the Santa Ana River Trail and follow it to the Talbert/MacArthur crossing, then go east on MacArthur.
