Balfe's Bikes provide an excellent service. Always. The team are highly skilled at fixing all kinds of problems with bikes, they're friendly and smiley and even today, I went in with a small valve issue, someone fixed and didn't charge me! Really kind. Highly recommended!

Unprompted review
Great deal on bike
Great deal on bike, but had several issues.
Firstly, the front through axel was over tightened and I was unable to remove the front wheel. Had to return to shop.
Secondly, the rear suspension shock was not charged with air correctly. This has lead to pedal strikes on the floor which is annoying and dangerous. Didn’t have time to return to shop so fixed myself.
