Valencia Cyclery

Did you know motor placement on an e-bike changes everything, from how it handles hills to your battery range? ⚡️🚲

Hub motors are budget-friendly and great for flats, while mid-drive motors deliver the power you need to conquer San Francisco's hills.

Stop by Valencia Cyclery in the Mission, and our team will help you pick the perfect e-bike for your ride!

School is already in session — is your child's bike ready for the ride? A few things worth checking:

- Make sure the bike fits. Your child should be able to touch the ground with both feet while seated.
- Gear up. A properly fitting helmet is a must, and knee and elbow pads are a great idea for younger riders.
- Check the bike before every ride. Inspect the brakes, tires, and reflectors, and make sure nothing is loose or broken.

Our team at Valencia Cyclery can help you dial everything in. Come see us at 1077 Valencia St.
