Buy a bike experience

Excellent experience. Ordered my new road bike and received it the following week. Order process was straightforward and the communication about my delivery was excellent and bike arrived on the day stated. Couldn't fault Buy a bike and would definitely recommend them to others. Looking forward to riding my new road bike soon.

Child's bike

Fantastic service. Very pleased with the bike for my daughter, I found it on this site as the cheapest price on offer. I phoned to let them know I needed it for my daughters birthday and they ensured it was dispatched on time for me, excellent communication and service.

My husband purchased a electric bike…

My husband purchased a electric bike off them. They are very professional, helpful and make the time to help you and made sure that the bike he was buying was the right one for him. I can highly recommend them. If you have any questions, they were on hand to answer them.

These guys are great.

These guys are great.
Got me the bike I wanted that I was struggling to get anywhere else and at a great price too.
Friendly, helpful and didn't rush you.
Some places can be a bit pushy with their sales approach, but not these guys.
Had a slight niggle with the new bike, my fault, but they got it sorted for me with little fuss. So yeah highly recommend Buy A Bike

Absolutely brilliant service

Absolutely brilliant service. I was in a pickle with my e-bike, chain broke and a few issues with the gears. Phenomenal customer service and great advice. I wouldn’t buy or service a bike anywhere else. Smashing team, thank you. We shall enjoy Whinlatter 👏👏

Big thanks to the team at Buy a Bike

Fantastic advice, support, patience and service from everyone at Buy a Bike.

Big thank you to owners Ian and Julie (great to chat to you both today) and also to Lewis.

Special shout-out to Mike who spent a good deal of his time listening carefully to what it is my wife was looking for and guiding her towards an excellent shortlist - and again today when we dropped in to pick up the new rides.

If anyone reading this is looking to get started with cycling (or back in to cycling), know that there’s zero pressure-selling going on and none of that odd air of elitism that can sometimes surface in bike shops.

Just a great range of bikes supported by a genuine group of knowledgeable and enthusiastic folk.

Seems to me that all Buy a Bike are keen to do is see another person discover the benefits and joy of cycling.

A proper independent.

Another great experience in store today…

Another great experience in store today whilst booking my son's bike in for its free 6 week check. Julie was great, helping me get the bike out of the car and into the shop and sorting everything out for us. Fantastic customer service and very knowledgeable staff.

Thank you for your patience Anthony, we really appreciate it. Cube’s courier still can’t tell us where your original order ended up but it definitely wasn’t here!
