WORKSHOP
All the full-time staff at Cycle-ops are Cytech qualified, or in the process of training and accreditation.
Our three dedicated mechanics have a wealth of know-how and experience of cycle repair accumulated over many years *
You can rest assured that anyone who books-in or works on your bike will have the necessary knowledge and skill level required.
Our modern, open- to- view workshop has three work stations, a specialist wheel building stand, and is fully equipped with all the tools needed to enable us to work on any bike, frame or sub-assembly.**
Our “Shimano Service Centre” status is your guarantee of our quality and ability!
Current Workshop Charges.
These are set out at the bottom of this page, and are a palette from which we can select the most cost effective way to book the work on your bike.
How do I know what needs doing?
We need to talk to you about the history of the bike and what level of use you are intending in order to best advise you.
To give you an accurate estimate or fixed quote we need to see your bike – there is no cost or obligation for us to look at and assess your bike.
How much will it cost?
Most jobs can be accommodated within our service schedules, but some may have to be charged at out Hourly rate or part thereof – if so charges will be per quarter hour block.
There are no hidden “extras” such as “ lubes”, “admin” or “VAT” – just what you see!
How quickly will it be done?
We always endeavor to turn repairs as quickly as possible, and subject to parts availability your bike should be ready within 5 working days. In peak times our workshop gets very busy so consider pre- booking if possible.
We have a priority puncture repair service – see the rates below.
Asking us nicely and bringing doughnuts (Waitrose or Sainsbury preferred) for the workshop staff will always help your urgent repair to be prioritized.
We usually have two mechanics working every day, including Saturday, Sundays and Bank Holidays.
Our Club Card members get priority workshop scheduling.

Rates and Terms for
fitting Customer Supplied Parts.+
|
|
Modern
bikes can be very complex and incompatibility of parts is a common
cause of poor function. Additionally, if we fit parts supplied by
you, the line of responsibility in the event of an unsatisfactory
repair or any warranty claim can become unclear.
In
order to minimise any such problems, we will inspect and check the
parts you have supplied to us for any obvious incompatibility, or
damage, before we commence work. We charge for our time spent on
this process.
Some incompatibility problems can
only be ascertained during the fitting of parts, and in this case
we will stop work and contact you. We reserve the right to charge
for any extra time spent resolving any issues.
|
|
Inspect parts for repair / bike
build
Guide time for full build - 3 to 5 hours.
|
Charged at workshop rate –
Per quarter hour, or part thereof.
|
|
+ For Insurance reasons we
cannot fit child seats, trailer bikes or Trailgator unless
supplied new by us.
|
|
Rates and Terms for assembly /
checking build on Customer supplied new Bikes
|
|
To
function properly and to achieve the optimum lifespan of the
components, a cycle requires complete and proper assembly before
use. Just bolting it together from the box will not be sufficient
to achieve this, and may leave the cycle unsafe to use.
If you
ask us to assemble or check the assembly of a newly supplied bike
we will check all of the bike, and this may require some
disassembly. To achieve a good result we may have to renew some
brake and gear inner and outer cables.
We will
not undertake small adjustments or any part- work to such cycles.
To ensure ongoing function we
recommend a further check about 6 weeks later.
|
|
Check / build bike supplied by Mail Order ^
|
£ 34 minimum
– TBA at time of booking
|
^ Please Note: With your interests in mind, please be aware that if we work on your newly supplied cycle without asking the original supplier to rectify faults first, you may void any warranty you have with the supplier.
These prices are valid at 1st January 2010, and may be subject to change without notice
