i offer a choice of service options, please choose one before making a booking
(For new customers)
A Pre-Service for new customers, who require a full written quote before committing to a Full Service.
Outcome
A full written quote for labour and new parts, which will be needed during your Full Service Period, (either 3hrs or 5hrs) - All new components fitted will ensure your bike will function optimally again.
Labour: A detailed components-audit and inspection that uncovers the level of hidden-component wear, which a quick-glance-over at your local bike shop can often miss.
The quote itemises the cost new parts that will need fitting during your Service Period - components that are specific to your bike's original build specification.
The major benefit?
Before any big financial commitment, the written quote helps you make an informed decision.
(Every 3-6 months)
My 2hr Full Service is the best choice if your bike is already in good condition and you want peace of mind that everything is working optimally.
Labour only. No new parts are fitted during the 2hr Full Service Period, but If any parts need replacing due to wear, then the service will automatically be upgraded to a Secondary Care Service. I will tell you when this happens, so there are no surprises.

Price is subject to the existing components being in serviceable condition.

How frequently you need to get your bike serviced really depends on how often you ride it and in what conditions.
All bikes really need regular checks and cleaning by their owner to keep them running optimally, but in addition, a regular Full Service by an experienced mechanic is essential to ensure the longevity, performance, and roadworthiness of your bike.
A bike that receives regular servicing, benefits from the lubrication of moving parts, mechanical adjustments and the timely replacement of worn out, (relatively) low-cost components - such as the chain, brake pads and bearings.
Without preventative maintenance, wear will spread to the more expensive components, such as the cassette, chainrings, hubs and brake rotors, significantly increasing your repair costs in the longer term.
If in any doubt, get in touch and send me some images, i can recommend which level of service will match the current condition of your bike.
In summary, a clean and well-maintained bike is a joy to ride, making it likely to be ridden more often, leading to increased physical and mental health benefits and helping to create a cleaner environment.
