  • "Great shop, service and products!"

    Dennis H.

  • "These guys are always interested in talking cycling. They will help with all your repairs as well as new purchases."

    Rick R.

  • "Many thanks to Rhoddie Bicycles for their help making my road bicycle ride in Boone! I am traveling through Boone and was hoping for some quick advice on a bicycle route, but Rhoddie employees made a custom ride map for me to navigate the local roads and hills. This is very important because many of the roads are still closed due to the washout damaged by the hurricane last year. Thanks to Rhoddie, my ride was very successful and appropriate for my level of riding skill. Greatly appreciate the help making this ride happen."

    Jason R.

    Ben C.

  • "The owners of this store are wonderful. We came up from Charleston and they helped us find 3 great rides. We were able to stock up on a few supplies and get some new glasses. I recommend them highly!!!"

    Lorcan L.

  • "This bike shop is awesome! I was a couple of days into riding the whole Blue Ridge Parkway and spending the night in Blowing Rock when my shifter and front derailleur locked up. I was stranded at my hotel until I found Rhoddie Bicycles on Facebook. I called them up and spoke with Brian. The shop wasn't even officially opened yet (their grand opening was in a few days). They were still busy setting up the shop, but Brian took the time to examine my bike, ride home to his house to get supplies, and fix my bike in about 45 min. It was a huge life saver! I was able to continue my ride on schedule thanks to Brian and his shop!"

    Eric I.

  • "Rhoddie Bicycle Outfitters always goes above and beyond to help satisfy my cycling needs. Out of all of the bike shops I've dealt with Rhoddie's has the fastest turnaround on repairs and Brian is always knowledgeable of the specific parts best suited for keeping me on two wheels. It's clear that the owner truly has a passion for cycling of all disciplines and enjoys helping others maximize their enjoyment of the sport. I couldn't recommend this shop more."

    Grant E.

  • "Wow! What fantastic and personal service. Great knowledge of their products and the local trails and roads. Definitely check them out of you're in the area."

    Betty C.

  • "Great shop with solid selection. A must stop while in Blowing Rock."

    Jason C.

  • "Absolutely wonderful experience at Rhoddie Bicycle! While riding the Blue Ridge Parkway, my old road bike broke down - irreparably. Brian dropped what he was doing to help and saved the day with a great deal on a bike rental! Wonderful shop in a wonderful location - the only bike shop in Blowing Rock!"

    John Y.

  • "Brian really made me feel welcome and special while giving my bike some impromptu TLC! Thanks so much!"

    Brian K.

  • "I'm biking the BRP and stopped at Rhoddies for a chain tool. Brian took a look at my bike, showed me why I didn't need a chain tool, showed me how to remove and replace the chain, and wouldn't accept payment since he hadn't actually sold me anything. He is extremely competent, ethical, and even offered to run the chain tool by my campsite later since he didn't have it in store (before we realized I didn't need one). I highly recommend Rhoddies to anyone in the area."

    Jake W.

  • "Love this place. Great service, great gear, sweet bikes and one of the coolest dogs around."

    Kevin P.

  • "Great little shop!"

    Jason M.

  • "Excellent bike shop! Brian is great to work with- My wife and I just had the pro bike fit done with Brian and Matt, and were really pleased with their attention to detail. Always impressed with the Shop's inventory, and Rhoddie even does the little things like having laminated bike routes (for free, no less!) for folks looking to explore the area. Highly recommend!"

    John L.

  • "I came to Blowing Rock last summer for a cycling trip, and I decided to stop by this place. The staff was very helpful and gave great advice for riding in the area, and was very friendly towards me. Even if you're just passing through I'd recommend supporting this place by buying a t shirt or some bar tape."

    William R.

  • "Awesome bike shop. Brian is very knowledgeable and very helpful. Love this shop."

    Chris S.

  • "Such amazing professional help, they really care about cyclist enjoyment and make it a huge priority. More of a community than a bike shop!"

    Evan M.

  • "Great little shop! Friendly staff and a bike for any type of rider!"

    Chris G.

  • "Great Shop and Staff!"

    David B.

  • "Great place. They really work with u to get u want u want and need."

    Devrone J.

  • "My 15 year old son is fairly new to the sport of Mountain Biking. He started with an entry level bike at Christmas of 2020 and has learned all he could about bikes and riding in general. He has hunted and researched and happened to run across a GT Sensor Carbon Pro bike that Rhoddie's had just posted. He called and spoke to a staff member there and he was treated so kindly despite the fact that he was a kid. He set up a time to look at the bike for today and he and my husband were so impressed with the staff. They were patient attentive, and eager to talk with my son about the bike and the custom parts that had been added. They were encouraging and very supportive and I can guarantee you that even though it is an hour drive for us to this shop, they have gained our business from here on out!"

    Brandi H.

  • "Great bike shop with very professional and personable staff."

    Sam M.

  • "Matt is super helpful! Can’t thank him enough for going above and beyond to help me swap out my Peloton pedals for SPDs. It was his idea since I already had indoor cycling shoes that fit and I had returned 2 pair of Look cleat shoes that were way too narrow and made my feet fall asleep. I went there for shoes, left with pedals and a demo to make sure I didn’t mess it up (which I did). He helped out further on the phone! What terrific service! So glad I picked them!"

    AM C.

  • "Great service, they will always accommodate you with problem solving . The result is always positive. Thank you"

    Craig C.

  • "Staff were super helpful and courteous. Gave me great advice on routes."

    Thomas D.

  • "My experience with the Rhoddie Bicycle shop was amazing. I am on a weeklong cycling trip with a small group to ride the mountains surrounding Blowing Rock. I shredded my rear derailleur cable on the second day climbing Snake Mountain. I was not a happy camper that night and was worst casing about my trip possibilities. I showed up anxiously at Rhoddie first thing the next day and was immediately taken care of. Brian had to spend extra time extracting the cable and got me back on the bike that morning for my ride. The cost was way below what I expected. The shifting was perfect and Brian explained what happened and how to prevent it in the future. Two of my companions have also used Rhoddie’s with the same experience. I am definitely going back to Rhoddie in the future when I’m in the area. Cannot be beat!"

    Jerry D.

  • "Really cool bike shop. Employees were cool peoples"

    Bill P.

  • "Great local shop! Great service and always seem to have some interesting bikes - even when no other shops did."

    Brad J.

  • "How kind and knowledgeable the people are is the reason this place has a 5 star rating. My bike broke down in the middle of my ride. I brought it to them and they fixed it within minutes while I had a beer next door."

    Jay C.

  • "Super knowledgeable and friendly guys! Will definitely be back through in future."

    Josh S.

  • "Rhoddie is a really nice bike shop! Matt fixed a brake problem on my wife's bike that other bike shops never could resolve. Bike service is fast and effective. They are a great resource for advising cycling routes in the area. If you are in the Blowing Rock area and love cycling, stop by and visit Rhoddie and Matt, the nicest bike shop owner you will find!"

    James Z.

  • "The staff are so friendly, patient, and helpful!!!!"

    Theresa C.

  • "Great shop with top notch customer service!"

    Greg C.

  • "There is a reason I drive over 1 hour to get to Rhoddies with Brian and Matt. They are that good. Full transparency, attention to detail, and treating my bike as if it was one of their own. I always learn something when I go up and visit those guys not to mention the awesome shop and inventory stocked. Just some really good people"

    Sid H.

  • "By far the best bike shope in NC. I've taken the liberty to purchase a Scott Addict E-bike. "Yes I have sold out'. At age 53 well, anything can help these days. I've taken this bike from Boone North Carolina to Charlotte North Carolina to finally Blowing Rock North Carolina and I have to say that Matt at Roddie Bicycle Outfitters by is the best bike shop in the state if you have an issue on an e-ride bike. In Boone and Charlotte the only thing those shops did for me was charged me more money for a diagnostic care. I can do diagnostic care. So if you want your e-bike serviced correctly with the right shop and having excellent relationships with his dealers then why not head out to Blowing Rock North Carolina and giving Roadie bicycle a shot you will not be disappointed."

    Robert S.

  • "I recently purchased a Ventum NS1 from Rhoddie’s and the experience was amazing. Brian and Matt do a wonderful job of making you feel valued and helped walk me through my options for bikes from start to finish. Highly recommend for all of your cycling needs!"

    Joel B.

  • "What an amazing experience buying my first bike. Thank you so much Brian for taking your time, being kind and so relaxed. I've been into several bike shops looking and learning along the way. Brian by far has the best customer service around. I was more then happy to spend my money with Rhoddie!!"

    Charleen S.

  • "Went to buy brake pads for my bike, I am NOT knowledgeable on what it is and didn't have it with me and with the limited information I was able to provide they were still very very helpful in getting me the right pads and their customer service was great, even had a great conversation with their employees. I'm very new to mountain biking and still have alot to learn and they were very nice about my ignorance. 10/10 would recommend"

    Devon S.

  • "Wonderful couple that know their stuff about bikes and Blowing Rock!"

    Kinley R.

  • "The staff is great and worked with me to get my bike(s) just the way I wanted them set up and a fair price"

    Andy L.

  • "I arrived in town needing a new chain & cassette. Matt was extremely helpful and informative letting me know they had the parts and could easily install within the required time frame. Not a difficult job, but done promptly and to a professional standard. Great store and good conversation. Matt, I was able to replace the front chain ring at Epic Cycles in Black Mountain, so I'm all good with a new drivetrain :) Thanks for all your help. Steve (New Zealand)"

    Steve H.

  • "I bought a bike here today and had a great experience. The staff was both professional and personable. They weren't pushy at all when trying to sell me a bike. Even though I live an hour and a half away, I’ll definitely continue doing business with them. The drive is worth the difference! I highly recommend them!"

    Jonathan B.

  • "Nice shop in the Beautiful Mountains of NC, Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Brian the owner took time out to give me directions to gravel roads and informed me of the greenway in Boone. If you’re in Blowing Rock or Boone make the trip to Rhoddie Bicycle Outfitters you won’t be disappointed."

    Jeff W.

  • "Great group of guys (and gals) that are super down to earth. I would certainly recommend checking them out of you are ever in the area."

    Anthony K.

  • "As we walked into Roddies (a warm yet cool bike shop) Brian ask how they might help. We said we’re from Charlotte, in the hills for a sanity check, and are bike shopping for my Lady. Brian looked at us and said ‘I have the bike for you’. Brian and his dad have the knowledge and ability to make anyone ‘whole and complete’ regarding bicycling. Thank you both for taking care of us."

    Bill B.

  • "This is why we patronize locally owned bike shops; my husband was on a long group ride in the Boone area, had a flat and the spare tubular was not holding air. Thank goodness he was close to Blowing Rock. A stop at Rhoddies and Brian got him back on the road quickly by insisting he borrow a whole front wheel (for safety) while Brian glued on a new tubular for my husband to pick up after-hours that evening. You don`t get this kind of service and care from an on-line store! Many thanks to Brian for making this out-of-town biker's ride not only memorable for the climbs and scenery, but for the kindness of the local bike shop staff."

    Lisa K.

  • "Brian and Matt are both experienced, knowledgeable and congenial. The shop is a high end bike shop with good product and good attitude."

    Chesterfield S.

  • "All around.... a great bike shop!!"

    John J.

  • "Brian thanks for my awesome electric shift road bike!!! Enjoying riding here in Charleston"

    Willie W.

  • "Great staff & service! Located in the heart of Blowing Rock NC"

    Dan V.

  • "Thanks Brian for sorting out my bike 20 min before the BR Fall Classic today, truly appreciate it!!!!"

    Marc B.

  • "Just met Brian this past weekend. Great guy and loved the shop. Look forward to joining them for some group rides in the future. Definitely worth stopping by the shop if you're ever in the area."

    Mike Z.

  • "Let me tell you, Brain at Rhoddie is fantastic. I went with my good friend Charleen to assist in the purchase of her first bike. Brian stayed up late so we could purchase the bike, and have her fitted. He also without hesitation grabbed bike off the wall so I could go on a test ride with her. Having purchased bikes from many different shops across the country this is by far the NICEST man around, with an amazing shop in downtown Blowing Rock. I thank you Brian and wish you nothing but the best!!"

    James G.

  • "What a wonderful shop! Brian~ thanks for taking time to show me the various gravel roads in your area. I look forward to checking them out in the future."

    Fleet O.

  • "Great bike store. Super friendly and fantastic work. Has some really cool bikes in stock. Awesome place."

    Chris S.

  • "Great bike shop in a great town, friendly people and friendly dogs. They have a pretty nice selection of bikes for the size of the shop, ranging from a sick GT Force Carbon Elite enduro bike to the Orbea Oiz XC bike. The options to service your bike are plentiful and are very well done."

    Blake N.

  • "Great people and great selection of Accessories!!"

    Shannon M.

  • "Great shop, great people. From product selection to service, Rhoddie is top-notch. I saw that a clown with a junk eBike he brought in for service got his feelings hurt when the guys told him the truth about the lack of quality of his bike and did not feel comfortable working on such a heap. That one single misguided review kept Rhoddie from their 5 star. Shame on folks who buy online and expect the local small biz to be all smiles. Folks, do yourself a favor and buy from your Independent Bike Shop, so you actually have someone to support your purchase. Five Stars to Rhoddie for me !"

    Scott P.

  • "This is a fun shop, right along the path of hundreds of miles of great riding. Brian and the staff went out of there way to help me out with a quick Derailleur Adjustment on the fly and to set me up to demo a bike. They are very knowledgeable, warm and patient with questions. Highly recommend"

    Bing O.

  • "These guys know their stuff! Be sure to drop by! Lots of knowledge about all things bikes."

    Matt J.

  • "Great shop with very helpful people. They made sure my bike was set up perfectly before I left."

    Steve M.

  • "Wow! BR has a bike shop. Cool little place on sunset. The owner went above and beyond to help me out because I am a scatter brain and forgot my di2 charger. Gave me one to borrow on a Monday and let me take it home until weds. They are closed Tuesday's BTW! Worth a stop by if your in town! Nice, friendly people! Their shop kit is quite amazing as well!"

    Sara K.

  • "Last week a buddy and I went to Rhoddie's to rent some bikes and try our hand at gravel riding. Brian went above and beyond. He set us up with two sweet bikes, helped us with the fittings, gave us directions and advice, patiently answered all my dumb questions - and if that wasn't enough - he loaned us a bike rack. The ride he sent us on was challenging but also fantastic. We had a great introduction to gravel riding and we'll be coming back again. Highly recommended."

    Eric W.

  • "Wow, what an incredible experience we've had at Rhoddie! Matt is truly the ebike whisperer - his expertise helped us choose the perfect rides. Over the years, we've built quite the collection from Rhoddie, including two Topstone Neos, two Cannondale Synapses, and two Orbea Rises. And that's not even counting the multiple Cannondale Slates and Topstones we've also picked up! It's not just us who rave about Rhoddie. I have several friends who happily drive hundreds of miles just to buy their bikes and get them serviced here. Honestly, it's the best bike shop and group of people we've ever encountered. They're so knowledgeable that even my trusted bike mechanics down in Florida reach out to Rhoddie for advice! I've attached some photos of our bikes and my friends' bikes that have all come from this amazing shop. If there's a better bicycle shop out there, I seriously doubt it. Highly, highly recommend!"
