About Wheelbase
Written by the company
Welcome to the UK's largest Cycle Store. We stock one of the UK's biggest selections of bikes from 15 of the world’s best brands like Trek, Cannondale, Cube, Focus, Whyte, Yeti and Frog to name but a few. Plus, the very best in clothing and equipment to help you enjoy the ride.
Today we are Wheelbase.co.uk, Wheelbase Lake District, Wheelbase Darlington and Wheelbase Yorkshire. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive and friendly store for everyone who loves cycling, whether that be road cycling, mountain biking, touring, commuting, family riding or e-Bikes.
We are a team united by a passion for bikes and we have a wide range of cycling experience amongst our sales staff, mechanics and mail order team.
Our passion for cycling is invested back into the sport through the sponsorship and support of our British Elite road race team Wheelbase CabTech Castelli.
Now in its 12th year, we hold our annual MTB demo weekend in April, attracting up to 250 riders to our Lake District store, often in spite of the wet Cumbrian weather. We have a great community of cyclists here in the Lake District and there are plenty of events going on throughout the year, including the 3 Valley Challenge in June, our Tour de Staveley in July and the Wheelbase Spring Classic in March. We offer backing to local organisations where possible and are great supporters of Kendal Cycle Club and Fix the Fells.
Visit us online at www.WHEELBASE.co.uk or in one of our three stores in the Lake District, North East and Yorkshire.

Excellent customer care (Arawn)
Excellent customer services (Arawn - Kendal Lake district). Very understanding and helpfull throughout the entire process of ordering the new bike via cyclesheme. The bike arrived very well packaged.

Friendly company but could be a bit more proactive
They are friendly guys and knowledgeable. Bike came on time and well packaged. I had to follow up a few times to find out what was happening with my order. They didn’t seem too hungry for the sale.

My husband previously bought a bike from this company about 4 years ago. He wants to buy another bike and has emailed twice with an enquiry about a particular bike. Twice they have not responded. Very disappointed considering our first experience. Business must be good if they are ignoring repeat business.
