Repairs and ServicingWe recommend that a bike is serviced every six months and offer a variety of service options including our annual Bike Service Plans. See below for pricing. We also run regular bike maintenance classes for budding home mechanics.Wheel BuildingA set of handbuilt custom wheels is the best upgrade you can make to your bike and can transform your ride. They’ll be lighter, with reducedrolling resistance and will be stiffer and stronger than standard factory made wheels. Walkers Cycling has a pedigree of excellence in wheelbuilding - whether you want a bomb-proof set to charge down the mountain or a skinny lightweight set to fly round the velodrome, we can buildthem. See below for pricing. We also run regular wheel building classes.Custom Bike BuildsThe perfect bike is often a compromise between price, function, style, componentry and comfort. Finding the right balance of these in an off-the-peg bike can be difficult, so when you really want to get as close to perfection as possible - a custom build may be the answer. Fromselecting the frame and fork right down to your choice of tyres we can help you choose what’s right for you.Workshop BookingsPlease contact us to arrange a service booking.
