Hi guys, I'm coming to Oahu island for a vacation and I want to pick up some cheap stuff from State side. Can you recommend any good bike shops on Oahu island?
Thanks in advance.

I don't get what you mean by wanting to pick up some cheap stuff.
I recommend Raging Isle, Bikeshop Hawaii, and IBT. Also Bikewerx in Mililani might be worth a look.
I haven't been in Bike Factory or EKI.
I do not recommend McCullys.
Shaka I suppose for downhill, freeride but not XC--
You will not really find any massive deals so I hope that's not what you're thinking.

Lookin' for deals?
Some of the bike shops mentioned in this thread happen to be THE most expensive on the island ( Barnsfield, ITB, The Bike Shop). Although they are full-service shops and for the most part, do good work, they are pretty pricey. By all means patronize the LBS's, it's great for the Cycling Community as a whole. Sounds like you want some great deals that you cant get back home. Check out McCully Bike, when they have sales, you can score parts cheap, including complete bikes.Bobbysix said:
the shops
depends what you are looking for
The Bike Shop-Specialized dealer, some Elite road bikes, lots of Mavic wheels mainly Specialized accessories
Bikefactory-Trek Dealer, also going big on Orbea road stuff now, big shop lots of bmx and cruiser stuff too
Raging Isle, half mtnbike, half cruiser, a touch of Jamis Road. Santa Cruz, Intense and others, lots of mtn components
McCulley Bike-Giant, Cannondale, Guru, mtn road and cruiser. Never really a complete line of everything but for odds and ends they are great. Watch some of the deals though as they might be bikes that are a few years old, still smoking deals but just be aware.
Island Triathlon and Bike (they sponsor me)-right by Waikiki, small shop, Bianchi, Cervelo, Kestrel, Litespeed, Merlin, Felt, pretty much only road stuff. If you want Zipp wheels or stuff like that this is the place but for mtn, not much going on, I special order all my stuff.

Not sure what kind of Fox clothing you want. All the motocycles MX shops sells Fox stuff. You won't find mtb shorts but you will find jerseys, armor, gloves, and mx type pants and shorts.Bobbysix said:
If you're lucky you might find some fox stuff on the discount racks in some bike shops. I've seen some fox stuff on the discount racks at Shaka bikes rack before. I've seen Oakley clothing at 30-50% off at McCully before.

Ragin Isle stock Fox gear and some of it is the same price as online so pretty good deals.
Shaka bikes & boards also carrys Fox gear.
I frequent The Bike Shop in Aiea and I dont think they are expensive. Maybe if you pay sticker price but they always give a discount and are very helpful.
Bike Factory is ok, decent selection, and has some skateboard, BMX, beach toys, etc.
IT&B Ive heard good things about, but its for roadies, blah.

I was there last night (visiting from Idaho). They had a Bianchi P.U.S.S. and another Bianchi SS whose name escapes my mind.CrAzY WhiteBoy said:

UPS Ground shipping to Hawaii
UPS Ground service to Hawaii IS available. It's truck to the west coast and (obviously) air from there. Most companies are not aware of it being available, but it is. It's also a way to get things from Hawaii to the mainland at a lower, but not yet cheap, cost. I have a supplier in Florida that ships to me via UPS Ground, usually takes 5 business days.
