MARLBOROUGH'S EXPERIENCED BIKE REPAIR AND BIKE SERVICE SPECIALISTS
Bikes need regular maintenance and occasional repairs to keep in tip-top condition to ensure they're safe and enjoyable to ride
Brendon and Merrick in our large in-store workshop are onhand to help with your bike maintenance and repairs.
​
Most bikes that are ridden regularly - whether they're mountain or road bikes - cop a fair bit of wear and tear. And it's probably well overdue time to bring your bike in to us to get it back in shape.
​
As a bare minimum, we recommend you get us to do a basic service every 12 months. For those who are serious about biking, an advanced service gives you a more comprehensive tune-up, and the ultimate services adds in some custom tuning as well to really step it up.
​
​
Basic service
Bikes need a regular service every 6-12 months, depending on how much use they get.
A Basic service includes checking:
-
ring and rear cluster
-
wear on the brake pads
-
forks and rear shocks
-
suspension linkages and bearings
-
bottom bracket and headset bearings
-
drive train (if worn a new chain may be required - which helps prolong the life of the front chain)
Generally this takes 1-2 days.
Advanced service
Every so often a more advanced service is advised, especially for bikes that get a regular thrashing and prior to competitions or big rides.
​
Our Advanced service covers the basics outlined above and more, plus we can address any specific concerns you have.
​
Generally this takes 2-3 days.
Ultimate service
For those who dream about their bike, the Ultimate service is for you.
​
As well as the all outlined in the Advanced service above, we will work with you on customising your bike to your riding style and goals.
​
Depending on the level of work required, this would take 3-4 days.
