Strauss Skates and Bicycles

I needed a recumbent e-trike for exercise and running errands that would work well with my knee arthritis and balance issues. We saw that Strauss just started carrying the Addmotor recumbent e-trikes, so we went over to Strauss to check them out. Ty S. had already assembled the standard size e-trike, and he spent quite a bit of time with us reviewing the instructions and letting me take it for a test ride. It was a GREAT bike, but I also wanted to try the slightly smaller mini sized recumbent. Ty said Strauss had one of the minis in stock but it would need to be assembled before I could test drive it. He assembled the bike for us, and I took it for a test ride today. Long story short, it was PERFECT, and I bought it! Ty is great at customer service and bike assembly! I highly recommend Strauss (and Ty)!

I came in for new figure skates and was very disappointed with the experience. After asking for help with fitting, I received an associate who was unenthusiastic about assisting me. I told him I was looking for recreational skates that would be suitable for learning single jumps. He brought out one pair of skates, asked me if they fit, and that was the end of things. After checking out and doing some more research, I learned that the model of skates I was sold was not recommended for any basic jumps despite the sales associate’s apathetic assurances. Overall quite disappointing as now I have to come back to the store to return the skates. The environment was relatively unwelcoming. Would not recommend to shop at this store for figure skating- seemed like the focus is on hockey.
