Myrons Extreme Machines

I called Sam to see if he would match a price for a bike that I had found online and he agreed to work with me. I was interested in a particular bike, but had never ridden it before and felt that being able to buy a bike from a physical location would bring more peace of mind rather than buying online. As soon as I walked in, Sam and staff was accommodating and friendly. He suggested that I go ride a variety of mid-​drive bikes with different motor manufacturers to make sure I was picking the right bike. He was totally trusting and I was able to test ride a variety of bikes to get a good feel out around the nice parking lot loop. Eventually, I ended up pulling the trigger and Sam ordered the exact bike I wanted at an awesome price. Not quite the price I found online, but definitely worth it nonetheless. I would say that if you are thinking about buying an e bike online site unseen, go visit Myron’s first and I’m confident you’ll feel more comfortable buying at a real, physical shop with knowledgeable staff. My bike is set to arrive sometime early next week, and I can’t wait!

My son and I went to M.E.M and Sam was the greatest. His knowledge and service is unsurpassed. He answered all of our questions and gave us a full rundown on e-​bikes and scooters. When it’s all said and done, they are the folks to go see… great service without the pressure to buy is hard to come by — -in fact, incredible!!! Many thanks to Sam and his team.

Our family found Sam and his wife via Internet. We called and drove out to his place that was over an hour away. We were so impressed. We explained what we needed our electric bike for and he explained everything to us. He gave us pros and cons and what would be more beneficial to us. A very nice guy to be around. After trying and testing out bikes in the parking lot we purchased one.
A few days later we knew we needed a different bike with a bigger stronger motor. We called him and he gave us the exchange for free. We just had to pay the difference on the new bike which was worth it!
We really appreciate that he was so considerate and we weren’t stuck with something that wasn’t strong enough for us. We will definitely recommend them to everyone and we will most certainly be back!

I bought an easy motion neo volt here 2 weeks ago. It is a lot better than what I expected. I wanted a bicycle that had a mechanical advantage on the hills. That is why I chose a 20″ bicycle. The dérailleur on this bike is high enough to clear the bottom part of the bike rack on a bus. I also got me a topeak bag holder an a u-​lock made in Germany from this store. I believe that only this store has enough accessories and bike selection to put together and check compatibility. This shop is close enough to be a distributor center for the other electric bike shops in southern California. I visited several other stores before buying a bike. For all the bothering and time that I spent in this store, I think that I owe Sam more money than what I paid.

I went there today, 9÷11÷2015, and the owner had me ride 3 different bikes. Never rode an electric bike before, and what an enjoyable experience it was.
Here’s an article I read a few days ago that got me interested in electric bikes:

I just bought my 2^nd bike from sam, owner of m.e.m. 13 mos. ago I bought my 1^st bike and I loved it. I got a low end bike, but it was fine for my 1^st. experience on an electric bike, after 10 mos, still under warranty, sam took great care of my situation, a bad battery, it took some time to get it right, but he never gave up on me. the battery is better than new. it was great his service after the sale, is excellent! if you purchase a bike from sam, you won’t regret it! the electric bike experience is the best, and so is sam!!! I will never ride a regular bike again!!! jim watson

I recently purchased a new Easy Motion Evo Cross (ebike) from Myron’s. Sam (the owner) was a pleasure to deal with. When a serious issue arose (not the shop’s fault), Sam went to bat for me with the manufacturer, and provided plenty of follow-​up to make sure I was completely satisfied. Be patient if you go in on a Saturday, as they tend to be very busy then, but Sam will get to you and answer all your questions. I am thrilled with my new ebike — it has changed my life.

These guys are cool but overpriced. I brought in a Goped and was charged $ 90 bucks just for the labor itself, to put in a kill switch and clutch; mind you the clutch was already mines and just needed it repaired and broke again the very same day/​night and the guy just wanted me to «pick it up» lol, they eventually fixed it after I had to bring it back, but not without charging me $ 165 bux first, and they made me feel unappreciated and acted like I was waisting their time, and they were doing me a hugh, favor to help me out after i’ve already paid… hmmm, Kinda felt like a fool to pay that much and for not so good service from one of their employees. They might know about gopeds but they don’t care about them that much was the impression I got. These guys are not about Gopeds as much as they are into making fast turn-​around with the electric bikes they sell. Gopeds are a runner-​up from the impression of their business. They should take the Goped name out because they are too busy selling electric bikes and telling me, they won’t make no money, fixing Gopeds lol. I had to go somewhere else to get my other Goped fixed.
Hence Piece of advice, do it yourself, or prepare to pay the piper is what I experienced with these guys. At least I learned a little more about Gopeds, thanks Myron’s maybe i’ll be back but not without at least getting a solid price estimate first.

Came in about a month ago to check out a used GSR46R and I’m impressed, great customer service and couldn’t beat the price, and have quality ddm parts! Coming here when I need anything for it

This place does not have 5 stars for nothing!!! I NEVER had so much fun trying to purchase anything, not even my BMW! First, They gave me a lesson on electric bikes. THEN the fun part! They let me test ride several bikes to see exactly which bike was right for me! I ended up with the NEO XTREME. Its one awesome bike! They gave me an excellent price on the bike and get customer service!

UPDATE: Sam contacted me and offered a very acceptable solution for my experience. Full responsibility was taken by him. We all make mistakes. This isn’t a bad shop.
ORIGINAL REVIEW: When I dropped off my goped for repairs, I stood at the counter as the owner was behind it talking to a contractor who was remodeling his store. He never looked at me and just kept talking for 5 mins. He then walked away and never acknowledged me. Another guy came up and helped me.
I was told that it would be a week until they could look at repairing my goped due to remodeling. I was cool with that. Two weeks go by and no call. I check in and they haven’t even looked at it. I’m told 3 more days. I call 4 days later and still nothing was done to it. I’ve lost interest at this point.
I come to pick it up and the owner says «yeah we didn’t get to it» after he pulls it out from being buried under a bunch of crap. No apology. Nothing.
Not sure if I have bad luck or if everyone writing these stellar reviews are friends and family of the guy. But I wouldn’t trust him with repairing a ham sandwich.
VERY interested to see if this place responds to my review. I’m curious how they justify this kind of behavior.

Fantastic electric bike shop. They really know their business and seem to do whatever is necessary to satisfy the customer. All businesses should run like this. Can’t think of a better place to select an electric bike.

Just had an amazing experience here. My fiancé came to buy his Ebike and I ended up getting one too! Sam is soo knowledgable and helpful. He truly treats every customer like family!

The best experience, great customer service, good price & Sam is the best!
Highly recommend!

Sam (the owner) is possibly the nicest and most down to earth guy ever. I bought my EG Athens 250 from him and he gave me the best price too while he was injured. He took his customer service as a priority over his leg injury on crutches just to fine tune and adjust my bike before selling to me. He let me test ride many bikes and seemed to completely trust me riding it around. If you are looking for an electric bike or service for your electric bike, look no further. I wish there were 6 star ratings. Thanks Sam. –Daniel

Sam at Myrons Extreme Machines is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about everything electric bike wise and beyond! He is passionate about his product and has tested out practically every bike in the place it seems. Because he sure seems to know all the specs off the top of his head! I watched as he dealt with each and every customer in a friendly and knowledgable manner. And he spends plenty of time with each customer… so you may have to be a bit patient as it seems people are constantly arriving at the shop with multiple questions and are taking test drives of the bikes themselves. So It may take a few minutes before you can ask your own questions.
Sam is impossible to miss as he is tall and looks like Penn Jillette of Penn and Teller! With almost the same exact voice… only no magic tricks or Teller standing silently nearby!
He actually will take out the time to guide people to products and bikes within a person’s price range! And he’ll even tell them where they can purchase some of the lower priced bikes he does not sale! He saved me a few thousand by pointing out a comparable bike to what I was looking for. My Tidal Force M750 had finally fizzled out battery wise and getting batteries for one seems near impossible! So Sam showed me a Neo Cross Electric bike at far less cost than I was imagining I’d pay for a bike comparable to the über expensive Tidal Force M 750! Heck, Sam and his wife even delivered my bike to my house personally that very same day I bought it and after business hours! Now that is rare customer service! And threw in some free stuff as well! Sweet! I will definitely continue to do business with Sam and his wife! And Sam even told me he’d research the possibility of a replacement of the dead battery pack for the Tidal Force M 750 (No guarantees though! That is almost comparable to finding the holy grail of impossible to find power systems for obsolete electric bikes!)
Sam will even offer up items at WHOLESALE! The guy freaking bends over backwards to make the whole transaction as smooth and pleasant as possible! I give Sam 2 two thumbs up with a third mutant thumb thrown in for good measure.
Only negative is that the shop is super easy to miss as you drive along Commonwealth Avenue. (Just look for bikes out front and several customers test riding the bikes! It’s right next to Fullerton Bikes.)

Super nice guy. Repaired my sons Go Ped and saved my money with some spare parts instead of selling me new. Repaired while I waited. I have been a customer of Myrons since he was in the Irvine Spectrum. It is worth the short drive to get it repaired right the first time.

Is there room for six stars?
Buying an electric bike is a big ticket item, and it’s not easy because most places you check out might carry one, but most don’t carry any. They’re also not familiar the nuances, nor do they do a lot of servicing of electric bikes.
So that’s why you come to Myron’s.
They have a big selection of bikes ready to test ride. I came back 3 times before I decided on which bike. They didn’t mind. I asked all sorts of questions, & test rode many bikes in different price ranges. Sam and his wife were really cool. I learned a lot in the trips there. So don’t be surprised if you find yourself coming back a few times… like I said, it’s a big ticket item and there’s lots to consider. Fortunately, I only live a few miles away!
He has an array of bikes in different price ranges. He doesn’t try to upsell you, but helps you pick the right bike for where you’ll be riding, why you’re riding, and how much money you can spend.
I purchased my bike, getting a much better price than anyone offers online. Sam adjusted it, thoroughly explained everything to me –and also delivered it! I also bought a helmet, basket, and saddlebags from him. This is my primary source of local transportation, and I use it for running errands from banking to grocery shopping. (I ordered the lights online from Light & Motion, and a Kryptonite lock from the regular bike shop next door).
While it’s still called Myrons, his protégé Sam now owns the shop. He and his wife are there 6 days a week, and you come here for the experience. (Note, typical visit usually has 2 people inside sitting at the counter, Sam behind the counter on the phone while helping the people, and someone outside test riding a bike. If you call, just be reminded that you’re probably on speaker phone, which can be awfully funny).
They also sell GoPeds, and electric scooters, and gas powered scooters. He seems to do a brisk business in these as well. All in all, you come to Myron’s for the selection, service, and because Sam and his wife are pleasant and
fun.

Just spent two large and picked up a electric bike from Myron’s this week. Sam and his staff were extremely helpful. I had some questions after the sale and called him up and he answered them well. The bike is doing great and the rated battery life and range is legitimate. I still haven’t completely ran out of battery yet and I did about 15 miles on a charge that is supposed to give me 20. I am also able to pass those bicycle enthusiasts with their $ 5000 cannondale’s and cervelo’s now when I’m on the road just clown pedaling. Real fun to see their faces.
I will buy another bike again from Myrons some day when this one wears out.

Wow went down to Myron’s today to have my goped checked out did everything right on the spot. gave me a wealth of knowledge every question I asked him gave me an answer that was right. My gsr40 runs so sweet .
thank you Sam.
