Four Words... The Path in Tustin

Talk to Tani or one of the other guys...

Now if you want something close to you, I would say like Rock n Road in RSM, but I can't vouch for their service or price. And what happened to a friend there recently, I would have a hard time recommending them at all.... just my .02

I deal with both R'n'R shops on a regular basis - what happened? For service, I can recommend the Rock'N'Road at La Paz/Pacific Park over the RSM location. I've had as many good experiences as luke-warm at The Path. Guess it depends on who you know there.

I dont know anyone at the Path... I just get good advice, good service, and excellent turnaround times... sure prices arent always the lowest, but you get what you pay for sometimes....

So true....a friend recommended The Path for a fork rebuild (RS World Cup), and they did a great job the first time, but not the second time - unfortunately. I still buy tires/parts there, and will probably take the World Crap back for another rebuild.
They support the local community in a visible way, so I'll keep returning the favor - ride on!
