    I have had my TT bike, checked carbon brake blocks, new carbon front wheel and tyre fitted and Shimano front n rear mech setup. On the winter road bike the head set was checked for vibration and the disc brake pads replaced as well as the rear disc mechanism which was badly corroded. Now this was completed in two days including obtaining the rear disc mech. Such a professional guy and he explained what he had completed and why certain items were replaced.

    Quality, care, expertise and value is what you get from Michael at the Backstreet Bicycle Shop. The standard of worked carried out, to diagnose my machine’s fault, order parts, fix it, then check the mechanical integrity of the whole Time Trial race bike was outstanding. You don’t need to look any further to have your bikes looked after, this is the only place it should be going!! Thank you again Michael

    Contacted Mike at Backstreet Bike shop today 14th Sept'22. He was so polite and helpful. Although he was busy, he fitted me in almost immediately and reset all my Shimano gears. Bike now working perfectly. Many thanks Mike I would not hesitate in recommending his business to others. Fully equipped workshop.

    My gear shifters broke on route at the beginning of a 3 day ride. I diverted to Backstreet Bicycle Shop and was (very kindly) immediately seen to so that I could get back on the road. Happy to say that I made it to my destination with no more hiccups! Very grateful for the efficient and well done fix

    Excellent service all round, I would certainly recommend this place, after quite a major accident whilst out riding the rear derailleur had taken quite a beating but BBS, did the repairs efficiently and professionally at a very competitive cost, very pleased with the result. 😀
