A new service:

If you buy a bike online and it comes in a box and you are thinking what goes where, panic no more. The workshop will build your bike from £40.

This means that you or your children can pedal away safe in the knowledge your bike is safe.

This service includes a 4-6 week check up, including re-setting the gears after the cables have stretched and checking the bolts for correct torque levels.

Please note we are unable to service or repair Ebike conversions OR Ebikes with throttles/speed limiters removed.
