The Bike Man

About

Our team service all bikes from low to high end. I also specialise in wheel building and fork/shock servicing. Unlike a lot of mechanics I'm not grumpy!

Story

I have worked as a bicycle mechanic in various shops around Bristol for the last 6 years and I have completed Cytech levels 2 and 3 which is the highest cycle maintenance industry training standard.

I believe in offering both excellent customer service and very competitive pricing policy to all my customers whilst retaining a high level of workmanship.

I am able to work on all bikes from student bangers to commuters and high end race bikes as well as electric and folding bikes. I can do simple repairs such as puncture repairs, cable fitting and brake block fitting whilst customers wait. If the job is more complicated such as a complete service or a wheel build or fork service it may require booking in. I can also deliver repaired bicycles to people if needed.

I also offer cycle maintenance tuition in the form of a Beginner Course that covers complete bicycle setup and tyre/tube replacement as well as an Intermediate Course which covers more advanced jobs such as replacing brake blocks and cables and the setting of brakes and gears and much more. The aim of this tuition is to get more people out on their bikes and feel comfortable using and fixing them. For this reason, I also offer free advice via email/my Bike Man facebook page should anyone want it

Just had a full service at the bikeman for my full suspension MTB. As always excellent! I often carry out most of my bike maintenance myself, but every now and then drop it into bikeman for a professional service. Honest, quality mechanics they have my absolute trust! Bike was running like new after the gold service+. Highly recommend.
I was in a real jam the other day trying to service my own rear shock, unable to get the air can to unscrew. I popped down to see the guys at bike man and they were more than happy to help me out and get it unscrewed free of charge. These guys are super helpful and I will definitely be taking my bikes in for a full service soon
Great experience! I got my bike brake pads replaced, quick turnaround and reasonably priced. The staff seem very professional and knowledgeable, would come again: big thank you! Also appreciate how clear the communication was and they called ahead of time to say give a quote how much it would cost and when it would be fixed/ when to collect.
lets start from the beginning. I felt my bike wasn't riding properly so I went to Halfords for a free check and they said my rear axel was broke chain too loose and that it would cost me 265 for the repair as they were going to replace the whole rear wheel. I didn't have that sort of money so I waited to save. I then discovered the bike man I went down on the Saturday expecting to have to wait several weeks before they even contacted me. on the same day he phoned me to give me a quote. then on Tuesday I called to ask how much and he said only 45 which was a lot smaller than what Halfords quoted. So I said yes to the repair and within a few hours he phoned me to say its done and ready to be picked up. the staff were friendly. Quick to repair, talked you through what the damage at first glance and told me the options within a minute. Would recommend this place for anyone even if not for a repair but an upgrade.
These guys serviced my Falcon Explorer commuter bike a couple of months ago, and it's still running like a dream. They gave me a quote that was accurate within 0.01%, and we able to undertake some extra work not included in the original quote. Turnaround was quick as bike services go, despite a full overhaul and various parts needing to be ordered it was around a week. Attention to detail was magnificent, tyre logos lined up with valves, and they'd even swapped the pesk imperial measurement nuts over to metric to make my life easier in the future. Thoroughly fantastic, thanks guys!
Lovely service, helped with a missing screw no extra charge! and were very kind - I will definitely be back!
I gave my carbon fibre boardman road bike to these guys and asked for a service. I can honestly say that the bike was returned to me in a better state than when I first purchased it seven years ago from Halfords. The bike engineers in the Bicycle shop turned it around in three days and were absolutely ruthless in making sure every aspect of the bike's mechanics were working utterly smoothly. They also kept me informed of costs and timelines as they progressed. Totally recommend this place.
Excellent service all round, competent polite and enthusiastic . Matt has worked on many of my bikes over the years. He's built wheels for me , serviced shocks and carried out general services . All work was to an excellent standard. The best bike shop I have used . Do not confuse this shop with one that used to be on the same premises, as one other reviewer has.
My gear cable snapped on the way to work and I was really lucky to be within limping distance of this shop. The owner was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and generous of spirit getting straight on with fixing it to get me on the road again minutes after arriving, despite at least 5 bikes arriving for planned works. I applaud and thank you Bike Man, you totally saved the day, and not at an extortionate rate either. Will definitely be coming back!
Popped in to get a new chain, asked the guy behind the register to take a peek at my gears. He diagnosed a broken cable and fixed it immediately. Quick, easy, and cheap. Highly recommend this bike shop!
