Full services, repairs and safety checks from my home workshop in Craigowl — with collection and return available if getting your bike to me is tricky.
I service and repair bicycles from my workshop in Craigowl, Dundee — offering practical, support for commuters, families, leisure riders, mountain bikers, road cyclists and children's bikes. Whether it's a quick tune-up, a full rebuild, new parts fitted, or a safety check before you're back on the road, I'll give your bike the time it deserves.
All work is carried out from my own workshop, where I can take proper care over every job. If getting your bike to me is awkward, I also offer local collection and return, so having it serviced doesn't have to be a hassle.

The workshop
Proper tools, proper time.
Every bike is worked on at a dedicated bench, not a driveway — so it gets the attention it needs, not a rushed once-over.
As an approved Madison dealer, I carry and fit parts from trusted brands, and can order in what I don't have on the shelf.
Get in touch
Book your bike in.
Tell me what's happening with your bike and I'll let you know how I can help — by appointment, with collection and return on request.
Drop me a message with your bike's make, what's wrong (or which service you're after), and whether you'd like to drop it off or need it collected. I'll come back to you with a time and a price.
