Did anyone get their Cycle Gear mailer/after hours sale flier in the mail. Its got a close up of a chromed out rear wheel, sprocket and swingarm upon closer inspection its an XB! Pretty cool. Looks like Misato's.

Belong to any of you Badwebbers. Pretty neat since they seem to cater more to the metric crowd.

I must say, that I am not very impressed by Cycle Gear's mailers. For a company that specializes in motorcycle appearel, they don't carry much. With the combination of their vast retail network, and mailorder sales, they could dominate the market. Maybe they are doing better on the motorcross side.

I like the store.. I bought my Sidi boots through them.. They can order anything even if it isn't on their website... They take back anything that does't fit you..

They have a great policy of boots and helmets.. If you buy a helmet they will take back up to 30 days.. How many times have you bought a lid and not wished you got a different one or color etc.....


The stores near me got some steals on leather right now..

You can haggle the price sometimes their too.. I was looking at a X-11 and I was joking with the guy weren't these 20% off he kind of laughed... A minute later he come to me and say he can do that...

Same here - really good experience with the store. I've used the mailer coupons to good effect on tires and a new Shoei lid - 20% off a 600.00 purchase is a nice chunk, plus no goofing with shipping.

I've always been impressed with what they carried in their San Francisco and San Diego stores.

Some of the salesmen are more dirt oriented, but they have always been willing to help.

Now that I've moved, I haven't tried the mail order service yet, but I wouldn't be worried if I needed to.

The only one near me is just outside of Hartford, CT. Pretty much just Frank Thomas gear there.

I noticed the chrome XB parts also.

I look foward to looking through their mailer every time. I work close to their Auburn, WA store and always find something I need that is on sale in the mailer. Also, one of the guys working there owns a XB9S.

BTW, Last week I used up a Endurance tail bag in about a year. It had a 10 year warranty but I had no reciept. They exchanged it ...no questions asked. They treat me well.

Friends with the Laguna Niguel Manager Ken.This guy is the traveling Store opening Manager.Every time they open a new store he goes to get it started.Absolutely the BEST manager of a cycle store I've ever met...will accept any of their coupons no matter how old and any thing you use and don't like he will take back.Has gone WAYYYY out of his way to help us , even calling other stores and getting us help after hours and far away.Always put your name on their mailing list to get flyers ,only mailed fliers have coupons and most of the time theres a$5 dollar coupon good on ANYTHING you want.I keep a wallet full and now they just ask me before ringing up the sale.I get all my tires there too , about $230-250 mounted. TOO Cool...excellent store and people.No store is perfect but this place is the closest....Yes , that picture says it all.....ALL BIKES ARE GOOD!!!

The Frank Thomas gear is some pretty good stuff. My Wife had one of those jackets,
for a whole week, until the paramedics cut it off of her. It did it's job though!

I've heard that the Frank Thomas gear is big in Europe?

I don't recall, browse louis.de to see what alot of our Euro-brothers are wearing. I run a Cafe Racer 2pc suit, cheap... and effective I hope, oh and some probiker boots. The people are very very helpful. I don't have any real experience with anyone in the states.
