Tantalus Bike Shop
The centre of the mountain bike universe, known around here as Squampton. No matter what kind of riding you're looking for, Squamish has it all - and the best place to start is at Tantalus Bike Shop. Tantalus Bike Shop offers a great selection of new bikes and gear for your ride, knowledgeable staff who can point you to the best trails, and excellent service for when you hit the trails a bit too hard.
Services
Squamish is a testing ground for bikes: year-round riding, paired with some of the gnarliest trails and conditions, can be tough on your bike. At Tantalus, we know what it takes to keep your bike running smooth. Over the years we've worked with many top pros and local shredders to keep their whips top notch.
So we teamed up with what we think are the very best brands available to offer you top quality products, to keep you rubber side down all season long. We're located right at the hub of all the action, at the base ofthe Diamondhead (trailhead to the majority of Squamish trails) just off Hwy 99. Come in and get a trail map, ask us where the best trails are, gear up for the ride.
Check out the latest updates on the local trails, thanks to the help of our awesome community of riders. Help keep our trails running great for everyone! We are lucky to have a dedicated group of volunteers and a paid trail crew maintaining and building trails year round. You can help by donating some Trail Karma, or picking up a trail pass in store.

Really great shop. I came to them with a broken chain ring and they quoted me a new ring and service fee, but after I left they realized they would be able to repair my old ring to save me some money. High integrity move that they didn’t need to do and I will always call them first for future work.

My seat post cable broke today and ended my Squamish ride early than planned. In a panic, I stopped in at Tantalus bike shop at closing time and these rad people fixed my cable on the spot. They could have easily turned me away but they didn’t - they cared. Great service. I highly recommend and I will be back!

Once again the fantastic staff at Tantalus Bike shop went over and beyond. Thanks for fixing my wheel ASAP to get me rolling again.
It’s no coincidence that I have bought all my bikes here for almost 20 years.
Thanks again.

Best bike shop on the planet! 1st class service and staff. I wouldn’t go anywhere else in the Sea To Sky! Never been disappointed since they opened their doors many years ago! Thank you for everything always!

With most bike shops out of stock right now, one thing Tantalus Bike Shop will never run out of is great service. From the first time I walked through their door 20+ years ago, I felt like I had already been a customer for 20 years. Some of the faces have changed and so did the location. But what has remained constant is their attention to detail and the amazing service that Al and Lorainne and the rest of the staff pour onto their clientele. This is small town hometown grassroots mountain biking at its pinnacle.

Fast turnaround but they didn't change my shifter cable without fixing the cable housing. Won't go back.

Super friendly and helpful. I went in with a busted chain worried they would be too busy to get me back out on my ride. They had no problems getting me fixed up super fast. Would definitely shop there again.

Tantalus Bike Shop saved me on our MTB family vacation!! We were on day 2 of 9 and my brake levers needed a complete replacement. I could find the parts in town but the shops were booking 10 days out for the service. Tantalus had the parts and after the fellow looked at my bike, he said they could squeeze it in for next day - SO fabulous!! And what made it even better was that he got my bike done in only a few hours! I wish I could remember the fellow’s name - he knows who he is :) - he was fantastic!! I’m so grateful he got me in. I would give Tantalus 10 stars if I could! We love Squamish

Awesome bike shop with great staff. I bought some brake pads there and I was having a hard time installing them. The guy at the counter helped me with the installation for free! I highly recommend going there.

Unfortunately I had a negative experience recently and while I am certain it does not represent the quality of service at Tantalus, it left me quite disappointed. I brought my bike in after calling because I need a replacement part of a brand that only Tantalus carries in town. In addition, I kept getting a flat tire (slow leak) and wanted it looked it. The mechanic who helped me took a quick look at the dropper post and said he did not think it needed a new piston at all. Mind you, the dropper had already been examined at a different shop and it was not working properly - I had used the bike several

Thanks guys for the extra effort in fixing my bike. In spite of chain supply delays, you kept digging to get the parts needed to get out on the trails again. Always the best service ! Thanks Al and co.

Thanks team for my new oval chain ring! They special ordered in for me and fitted the same day it arrived. I have always had great service here and apparently their hot sauce is ever better!

I had some issues with my gears while on vacation, and I stopped by Tantalus. They were incredibly helpful with getting my bike up and running even though I showed up right before closing time!! Amazing service!
