They did a good job repairing the bike but communication over timings was very poor. Took a week to get a quote despite staff in shop saying it would take 24hrs. After the quote timings were also difficult.

First rate quality bike service
The quality and expertise of the service team here is first rate. The only frustration is they often have your bike for a week before starting work on it , if you have more than one bike its not a problem but would be frustrating if you only had one bike. That aside the mechanics really do a top notch job on your bike so 100% worth it for me
