Service Packages

Every 2500 to 3000 km, you will have worn your chain out and bearings will needing attention, your cables need checking and if you don't service the bike at this stage you will start wearing the expensive parts very quickly, Thus this is when we recommend a proper service, and our TLC service is suitably thorough, including everything in The Basics Service and more. The TLC service begins with a thorough clean of your bike. Starting with us removing your drive-train (Crankset, chain, cassette, jockey wheels & derailleur cage) for a full internal inspection of bearings and a thorough degrease and clean, bringing the components back to ideal state, removing all those nasty bits of grinding paste that have formed from the normal mixing of chain oil and road dirt.

Level 4 - The Works with ZING ZING

his is the ultimate service for your bike. Cris is proudly OCD about his own bikes and is happy to share his obsessiveness for perfection. Not only does this include everything in the Works service along with the ZING ZING in chain cleaning and maintenance. We will start by completely stripping down your bike, removing each and every individual component. then takeing those components apart to "detail" clean and tune them, by hand, off the bike. This includes dismantling the freehub, brakes and other complex parts into their individual component parts to enable us to get into bearings and pivots. We will then proceed to obsessively clean and detail every part of your frame and it’s components, removing every little speck of dirt and grit and re-greasing and re-lubricating as we go, until it looks and feels as good as (and often far better than) new! 

Level 5 - Proudly OCD with ZING ZING

Suitable for Road, Triathlon, Gravel & Hard Tail MTB bikes - If your bike is covering a few hundred miles each month then a regular (monthly) Degrease, Clean and Lube is always a sensible undertaking, and our Dirty Harry service is an on the bike clean-down and tune up - this is what many of you might do at home if you had the time - we run the chain through the chain cleaning tool, scrub down the cogs and chainrings with degreaser, degrease and then clean the frame and wheels, followed by a full check-over and adjust the brakes, rear mech alignment check and quick tune up of the gears, so you know your bike is safe and in great condition to cover the next few hundred miles.

Level 2 - A Dirty Harry

The Basics: Includes a Safety check. Our entry level service for your bike begins with a light fifteen minute clean to get the bike nice clean enough for us to work on. We then proceed to check the gears making sure the chain is not stretched and is well lubricated. We check the gear hanger alignment, then the gear cables and gear mechs are seen to, adjusting and refining the indexing, to make sure the gears on your bike are properly operating and aligned. We then check your brake pads for wear and any embedded debris we find is removed and brake cables are checked. We then check the hub, spokes and rim on both wheels, finishing with a bearings check on the bottom bracket and headset, adjusting any minor play in them as seems necessary. This is designed to tune-up your bike for smooth performance and extend its longevity through basic maintenance.

Level 1

A Safety check: We perform a full bolt check on the bike, making sure everything is tightened to the manufacturers specifications. We'll assess the function of your brakes and if necessary adjust them so they are safe. We also check that your safety lights and reflectors are secure and working.
