The workshop offers the normal offerings of a bicycle workshop, such as affordable bike servicing from a Cytech Trained mechanic, puncture repairs, along with free bike health checks and a free simple bike fitting, while offering trainee placements for those recovering from mental ill health.

There are recycled bicycles for sale, very reasonable priced locks , along with advice on how to use them effectively.

The bike shop is open Tuesday – Friday 10am – 6pm and Saturday 10am – 4pm

Evening classes for the home mechanic will cover topics for complete beginners, such as puncture repair, gears and brakes. Intermediate topics will cover drive train replacement; hub servicing; wheel truing; headset replacement, etc. We will be able to sell you tools and parts as your experience grows.
