Desert riding, year-round and close to home

Top bike shops in the Phoenix metro

AZ

With 237 bike shops spread across Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, and Chandler, the metro area's 5 million residents have easy access to local expertise and gear.

About 4.7 bike shops per 100,000 residents across roughly 5,070,110 people.

Phoenix-area cyclists embrace both desert trail riding and urban commuting, taking advantage of mild winters that keep riders on bikes when much of the country hangs up for the season. The region's flat to rolling terrain and sprawl make for natural gravel and road cycling routes, while the heat shapes a strong culture of early-morning and evening rides. Shops stock trusted names like Shimano, SRAM, Surly, and Teravail—brands built for the long haul and capable of handling everything from pavement to packed dirt.
