Sometimes it's hard to tell if your bike frame is bent, your brakes are loose, or your front tire has been stabbed repeatedly with a 16-inch serrated knife. The bike-savvy staff at The Trailhead Bike Shop and Cafe can, and they'll feed you caprese sandwiches, Reuben sandwiches, homemade gazpacho, and espresso while they're mending weary wheels. For $30, today's Groupon gets you a silver-level bike tune-up (a $59.99 value), plus a $10 gift card toward the cafe.
Surf the free WiFi and munch pastries, organic cookies, and breakfast and lunch sandwiches while waiting for Trailhead's bike geniuses to make a rust-riddled beater run as smoothly as a hoverboard. The tune-up includes a wheel true, front and rear derailleur adjustment, brake adjustment, wash, tire-inflation adjustment, bolt tightening, and more. Trailhead has easy access to the Grand Canal and Trail 100, so juice up on Odwalla smoothies, espresso, and fresh-fruit drinks before hitting the road.

Trailhead Bike Shop and Cafe
Trailhead Bike Shop and Cafe fulfils every gearhead's two basic needs: offering the sale and repair of all things bike-related, and calories. The shop's group of certified bike technicians keeps frames of all makes and models in bikini-ready shape and top form with detailed repair services, and can help customers find their steely soulmate from their selection of road and mountain bikes. On the other side of the shop, a café with blazing WiFi keeps riders as road ready as their two-wheelers, serving up a savory selection of breakfast and lunch sandwiches, smoothies, coffee drinks, and soup. After nourishing both selves and steeds, riders can hit the trails of the Phoenix Mountains Preserve, which begin just outside the shop.
