Fixed prices. Parts at cost plus ten.
Labour is charged from the list below, not by the hour. If a job turns out to be something else once the wheel is off, we stop and call you before spending your money. Estimates are free and take about four minutes at the counter.
- Turnaround 2–4 working days, standing queue
- Same day punctures, cables, brake pads, if in before 11:00
- Payment on collection, card or cash
- Warranty 90 days on labour, parts as per maker

Labour shown per job, parts additional. Cargo bikes and anything with a motor are quoted separately — see the workshop page.
Dropping a bike off
Bring it in dirty, that is fine. We tag the frame, write the job on the card and you get the carbon copy. Nothing gets worked on without a card, which is why we cannot take bikes left against the railing outside.
What we do not take
Carbon frame repair, wheel building onto rims we cannot get spoke data for, and anything we have been asked to make road-legal for a sale. We will say no at the counter rather than halfway through.
