About us
From an early age bikes have always been in the background, from pulling old bike frames from the local tip at the age of six and building them up in to working bikes. It then progressed onto motorcycles. As a child I must have been a complete nightmare to my parents, if it was mechanical or electronic it got taken to bits to see how it worked. It was’nt until 2009 I made it into a part time business, working from home in an extended garage, then into a full time business in 2018. In 2020 my youngest son Ryan came on board and in 2022 we took a massive jump into the shop you see today. We dont sell bikes unless its a customers bike, our focus is bike building, specialist wheel building and repairs, ebikes, MTB, hybrid and road but we will work on anything from unicycles to tandams.
We continue to adapt and expand our knowledge of both standard cycles and ebike technologies. Cytech qualified, certified Shimano and Bosch technician.
