About this Event

With thanks to the National Lottery Awards for All we are pleased to offer FREE Dr Bike Health Checks / Build a Bike. These are sessions where people can bring their own bikes and have a qualified cycling mechanic check to ensure they are safe and roadworthy.

This is not a full service and repair, but an "MOT" of the bikes brought a-long. Our mechanics will check all the components of the bike and provide a report on what needs to be done to ensure they are safe.

We will carry out any minor repairs if required such as; Basic Brake replacement & adjustment, gear indexing & adjustment, cable replacements, Chain – Check for wear and lubricate if necessary, Puncture repair/ tube replacement, inflated to recommended pressure (PSI).

We will also be available to build up any new bikes that may have been purchased in the build up to the festive period.

Last bike drop off 30 minutes before the end of the session to allow our mechanics time to carry out a full check.
