Slow, uninterested, complacent, expensive. If you are lucky you’ll get the odd interested genuine staff now and then in their ever revolving staff. This shop purely capitalises on their location and d... See more

I attempted to pick up and was told my bike was ready but arrived and it wasn’t finished with the safety check then I picked up the next day and they gave me the wrong bike which they corrected on the spot but if I hadn’t noticed, I would’ve walked away with the wrong bike. I also felt like the person who helped me didn’t care to set the bike to my height and fit it to me. When I was picking out my bike, one of the men helping was very knowledgeable. We had to wait a bit in order to find someone to help us because it was quite busy.

Shop closer

This store and its employer and employees are quite disappointing! It would be best for this establishment to be shut down for good. Absolutely shame behaviours!

Helpful staff in the Fulham store but items shown on the website as being in store for immediate collection were not in store and could not be found so had to go to Chiswick.

No nearby cycle locking hoops for customers to lock bikes up! Please have a word with the council to rectify!

The team were very polite and efficient on the repair of my bike and texted me within 24 hours to say that it was ready for collection. They also checked everything again before handing it over to me. I would definitely recommend Balfes Bilkes for all your repairs and servicing.

I'm a newbie to buy a bike.

The staffs are very helpful although I got some minor issues after the bike pick up. They are happy to help for anything and give suggestion.

Thanks,

Outstanding service

My bike is about 20 years old and was in need of replacement parts in addition to a tune up. When I dropped my bike off for its service, I was told it might be 5 days, given their current workload. But it was ready 24 hours later! Talk about under promising and over delivering! I was thrilled. I’ve used Balfe’s for about 5 years now. Always great service and very nice & helpful staff
