Due to current circumstances we are exceedingly busy.
We have made the decision to closed our phone lines and text service following repeated ignoring of the guidelines to read the details here on the website and people requesting information that is here.

If you have a repair, we can do it, whatever it is, just bring it along on Sunday.
Please do read below most of the information You need is here. Also note that what we do over the weekend has changed slightly so please read the services available on Saturday and Sunday carefully.
Kindly note that it is unlikely we will answer the phone during the session on Saturday and Sunday as these are incredibly busy.
The pre-loved bikes and new bikes on the website are updated daily so if it’s there we have it.
You can contact us via email If you want to purchase a bike with your phone number and the bike you want. Please do not email if you want to discuss a bike you will need to come to the Saturday drop in session. We will aim to respond within 24 hours.
