| - I discovered Rage Cycles after moving back to Phoenix in 2002 from spending a few years in San Francisco. I had reverse culture shock and needed badly to revert to what I loved most - bikes. With geographic fortune on my side, I wandered into the bike shop nearest my home and and was instantly relieved - I had just found my new second home. Nearly every 'wrench' I've met there since Day 1 has given me the personal experience I had been searching for since a friend closed his shop before I moved away. Admittedly, I'm one of those people fanatic enough about bikes that I would share my bed with one, and also currently have one of my most prized custom cruisers hanging on my wall as a mechanical piece of art (which I do pull down to ride frequently)...and while I'm a very passionate bike owner, I am a horrible mechanic - hence my need for Rage. So when your garage, shed, and living room are filled with bikes ranging from grocery-getter cruisers, custom built/painted top to bottom rigs, downhill mountain and high end top dollar "all mountain" bikes, AND you know from first hand experience that working on them yourself is the worst possible idea, you need a shop like Rage that is filled with guys that not only know their shit, but share that same passion. I would 100% lay it on the line to vouch for every single person who works there to give you the bike shop experience you need...even if you're buying your first ever bike. I heart Rage, with good reason...
