Bicycle Service
A full service is usually carried out for a flat fee of £40.
A full service involves
a total strip down, frame cleaned , all bearings removed examined cleaned and re greased.
Chain checked for wear, cleaned and given a light oiling.
Brakes and gears set up. Tyres, wheels and spokes
examined, slight buckles removed if spokes allow.
I do my utmost to keep prices down. Nothing
is renewed that is not worn out.
If unsure please call or 'e' mail to discuss.
Suspension forks and hydraulic disc brakes are specialist items that require time and care when servicing, they are therefore not included in a standard service.
If you need your suspension forks and/or hydraulic brakes serviced or just re pressurised or bled, then please call
to discuss. Shocks rarely go wrong, but an oil change and re inflation helps keep them in good condition. Refer to your cycle
manual for recommended oil change periods.
Parts for some suspension forks can after a few years be difficult to locate.
Again, I will keep the cost at a minimum but please bear in mind, parts and lubricants for these items are expensive.
If you wish, please feel free to source the parts etc yourself and bring them along.
