Mobile Bicycle Servicing and Maintenance

Servicing from only £45.00 (incl. pick up/delivery from selected locations)

All bikes that come through our workshop endure the same rigorous safety checks our own hire bikes get. You’ll be safe in the knowledge that your bike has been serviced and repaired by a fully qualified mechanic at our workshop close to Dalkeith in Midlothian, near Edinburgh.

Bronze service – £45
Silver service – £55
Gold service – £69

We strive to offer our customers an affordable, hassle-free service, with a friendly attitude. Here’s what we feel makes us stand out from our competitors:

  • Uplift and drop off service at a convenient time that suits the customer within the City of Edinburgh, Midlothian and parts of the Scottish Borders and East Lothian.
  • We’ll fit your own components and only charge for labour, if the parts are packaged new and meet all the appropriate safety standards.
  • All bikes serviced by us are safety checked, cleaned (Silver and Gold service), with cables and chain lubricated.
  • We will not carry out any remedial work without the customer’s consent. We ask a few questions about the bike and give it a brief check before taking it to our workshop. This helps diagnose any problems before the bike is collected. This process does not eliminate but can avoid costly surprises. Any maintenance advisories or safety issues regarding the bike will be passed onto the customer in writing on return of the bike.
  • We will do our upmost to return bikes as quickly as possible. A straightforward servicing will usually require 2 to 3 working days turnaround time or 4 to 5 working days if replacement parts need to be ordered.
