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.
How to book
You don’t need to book in for a service or repair, just drop your bike off at the Inner West Community Bike Hub on Moreland Street during business hours.
