Standard Service £40
– My standard service is what many high street shops refer to as a “silver level” service. A bicycle in regular use should be serviced at least annually, and possibly more for high mileage and/or adverse riding conditions.
A service includes:
- Full brake adjustment.
- Full gear adjustment.
- Spoke check, wheel true, rim, rotor, tyre check.
- Check and standard adjustment of bearing systems (wheels, bottom bracket, headset).
- Replacement of cables, inner tubes, tyres and parts where necessary, excluding anything considered a major repair. All spare parts are extra.
- Chain cleaned and lubricated.
- Full check of all bolts/fixings.
- Tyres inflated.
Labour rate – £11 per 1/4 hour
– I charge £11 per quarter hour labour. I will typically quote a fixed price for jobs estimated to take longer than one hour, and this will be at a lower rate.
Inspection/estimates
– I am happy to inspect any bicycle and provide estimates free of charge.
Puncture Repair £15 (includes inner tube)
– Punctures are normally dealt with by replacing the inner tube as patching cannot be guaranteed. Occasionally, an additional charge will be applied for unusual/expensive inner tubes e.g. “fat bikes”.
Brake bleed £15 per brake
Collection/Delivery £10 within Ellon
(Please don’t enquire about collection/delivery outside Ellon. I’m afraid I no longer offer this service.)
