Repairs and services
We run a full service workshop, covering everything from a flat tyre to a complete overhaul and rebuild, as well as more specialist offerings like wheel builds. Turnaround time is usually 1-3 business hours however we will advise you on the day for a more accurate idea of when you can be back on the bike.
“Took my bike on a Saturday afternoon, guy was super friendly, was able to fix my bike’s back tire straight away so quickly and was surprised how price friendly it was, thanks again!” Happy Customer.
