About Pima Street Bicycle
Pima Street Bicycle is a Tucson bicycle shop established in 1998. The business offers bicycle service and repair, an assortment of parts and accessories, used bikes, new bicycles, and e-bikes. Its stated vision is to create a better cycling experience for customers, employees, and every community it serves. The shop describes its community as the reason it is here, and says that its products and services are selected with that community in mind.
Service is central to Pima Street Bicycle's work. The shop provides repairs for all makes and models, with certified mechanics handling projects ranging from everyday adjustments to custom builds. Its service offerings include a comprehensive "Ultimate Tune-Up," which the shop describes as a Tucson staple, along with bicycle service and repair for riders with varied needs. The business also promotes a Ride Ready Tune-Up, which includes inspections and adjustments intended to help a bicycle perform reliably. Work may include checking the frame, wheels, brakes, and drivetrain, tightening bolts, truing wheels, adjusting hubs, the headset and bottom bracket, and setting the brakes and shifting.
Pima Street Bicycle also has particular experience with suspension and e-bike service. Its mechanics service mountain bike suspension from brands including Fox, RockShox, and Manitou. E-bike service and repair is available as well, and the shop offers free quotes for e-bike repair. The business also discusses converting regular bicycles into e-bikes, reflecting its interest in helping Tucson riders maintain or adapt their bikes. For cyclists preparing for longer rides and local events, the shop recommends professional preparation along with practical equipment such as flat-fix supplies, spare tubes, pumps or CO2 inflators, hydration systems, sun protection, snacks, and electrolytes.
The shop's sales selection includes accessories, parts, used road, mountain, and hybrid bikes, and new e-bikes. Its used-bike inventory is described as constantly rotating, with the staff available to help customers find a bike that fits their needs and budget. New e-bikes include models from Aventon and Velotric, while the shop also carries new Giant and Liv bicycles. Test rides are available for bikes and e-bikes, giving shoppers an opportunity to experience how a model feels before deciding. Financing is also offered through the shop's website.
Pima Street Bicycle's Tucson connections extend beyond its store and service work. The business identifies the Greater Arizona Bicycling Association as an organization it is part of. GABA is described as an Arizona nonprofit that helps get more children on bikes and connects the cycling community through group rides and events. Pima Street Bicycle also lists the National Bicycle Dealers Association, which supports specialty bicycle retailers through education, research, communication, and advocacy. The shop's blog addresses local and regional cycling topics, including the Tucson Loop Trail, bike tune-ups, e-bike conversions, and preparing a bicycle and gear for El Tour de Tucson.
