service
We are now operating on a booking system only. We will arrange for collection or drop off of your bike when you make the booking. This is a change to how we used to operate and during September/October 2022 there may be a short wait for an appointment
A full service on a conventional bike starts at £70, which includes checking brakes (new inner cables), adjusting gears, truing wheels and checking key components.
Other repairs are priced competitively and are carried out by CyTech qualified technicians.
Tannus Tyres
We are experienced at supplying and fitting Tannus tyre products. Tannus Aither solid tyres guarantee no punctures, ever. Tannus Armour tyre liners are thick liners which massively reduce your risk of punctures but retain your choice of tyre tread and also pneumatic comfort. We can advise on whether these products are suitable for your wheels and quote to supply and fit.
For minor repairs we also operate pop-up Dr Bike events:
Bike2Life is a Community Cycle Project. It has been running in Four Oaks (north Birmingham) for around twenty years. Jim is a founder member and Pete has been involved for a few years now too.
We run a regular Monday morning Fix Learn Ride session in the grounds of Four Oaks Baptist Church, Grange Lane, B75 5JX, from 10am to 1pm (last bike at 12.30)
We can do simple repairs to bikes and trikes usually just for the cost of the parts. Sometimes we have funding from CyclingUK and then there is usually no charge at all. What we most like to do is help people to learn to fix and learn to ride.
