Fantastic selection of bikes and very helpful staff. We were served by Ruth who really understood what it was I wanted. I had a specific bicycle in mind and we bought it from there.

Excellent customer service

Keith spent well over an hour with me helping set up my new bike and accessories. Very thorough service that is night and day to the last time I bought a bike here (one year ago, salesman no longer at Balfes Gatwick to my knowledge, literally didn't help me with anything).

Amazing customer service from Keith, really knowledgeable and helpful - I can not recommend enough.

All staff are helpful generally. Great range of products.

Thank you!

Communication surrounding this repair…

Communication surrounding this repair was non existent. In the end had to go into the shop to get answers which still ended up without a positive result. Endless phone calls, emails and 3 visits only to return home with the bike issue unresolved and a £35 service fee.

Great service, great shop!

I had done a little research about the right type of bike for me. Found the ideal bike and Balfe's was my nearest stockist. I asked if they had the one I wanted as it wasn't on display. They very kindly checked stock and they had one!! Hooray!! They agreed to build it for me to try. Sam, was amazing. Great service from start to finish. Easy to talk to, knowledgeable and they don't make you feel like an imbecile! Needless to say, I ended up buying it!! I went through the cycle to work scheme, which was also really easy and painless. Good range of bikes too.

Seamless purchase.

Having purchased lots of bikes over the years from big on-line direct to customer suppliers to Local Bike Shops, this is up there. Smooth & slick buying experience from point of purchase to point of collection, highly recommended.
