Here at The Bike Side, we have three levels of servicing for you and all prices are inclusive of collection & delivery. Whether we collect the bike or not, we start with a FREE safety inspection! We go over the entire bike and advise you how much or how little work/parts are required. You then get to decide how much you want to spend. If at this point you decide not to proceed with any work, that's fine we won't charge you anything at all (if we have collected the bike, we will still drop it back, with no charge).
The Standard £50 (excluding parts)
We clean the bike first and carry out a thorough visual inspection, checking for any worn/damaged parts and signs of stress in the frame. The brakes and gears are checked for alignment and any cables or brakes pads replaced as necessary. Every nut and bolt is checked for tightness, tyre pressures are checked and the seat post greased.
The bike is then test ridden making sure it's perfect and ready to be returned to you.
We recommend this service to be carried out every12-18 months for the recreational rider and every 6-9 months for the hardened/daily rider!
The Dirty Bertie £75 (excluding parts)
This service is for bikes that require a Standard service but are also suffering from very dirty and greasy parts! We remove the entire drive chain system and thoroughly clean them in our eco friendly parts washer, giving them longer happier life!
The Holy Grail £130 (excluding parts)
A complete overhaul of your bike. With this service we do everything as per the standard service....but then go the extra mile!! The drive chain (chain and cogs) is removed and cleaned with eco friendly de-greasers and the bike stripped down to allow a deep clean of all areas. Brake surfaces are cleaned and inspected for wear, hubs, bottom bracket and headset stripped down and checked for signs of wear and re greased where possible (lots of these parts have sealed bearings these days and they are designed to simply be replaced when worn). Pivots and bushes on full suspension bikes are removed and cleaned and any parts are replaced as necessary.
Once the bike is lovingly put back together, it is then test ridden and polished before handing it back.
We recommend this service to be carried out every 12-18 months for those riding daily/week in week out.....or for those who quite literally cannot remember when their bike was last serviced!!

Servicing
Here at The Bike Side we have four levels of servicing, if you're not too sure what level your bike needs don't worry, as soon as we see the bike we can give you an acurate quote and if we find anything unexpected we always contact you and make sure you're aware of any extra costs or issues throughout the process.
The Tune Up £45 (Inc VAT. Excluding parts)
The tune up/check over makes sure your bike is running as smooth and as safely as possible with the brakes and gears adjusted and tyre pressure/condition checked. Then a complete bolt safety check and lubrication (where needed) before a test ride. Ideal for the occasional user on entry point bikes.
The General Service £85 (Inc VAT. Excluding parts)
Additional charges that could apply:
Internal routing charge £25
Bosch E-Bike software update/diagnosis £15
The General service is more suited to the regular rider with a mid or high end bike. Recommended at least once a year, we spend around two hours on the bike, the drive chain is removed and de-greased in our eco friendly parts washer, the bike is wiped down and inspected for damage or wear. The hubs, bottom bracket and headset are all inspected for play and adjusted accordingly. The seat post is removed, cleaned and greased. The brakes and gears are all set up and indexed correctly and any worn parts will be replaced with your consent. The bike is then lubricated and test ridden.
The Full Service £150 (Inc VAT. Excluding parts)
Additional charges that could apply:
Internal routing charge £25
Bosch E-Bike software update/diagnosis £15
While our General service keeps your bike in tip top condition, occasionally it will need the next level of care, especiallyif it's not been serviced in a while. The Full service is everything the General offers plus the hubs, bottom bracket and headset are all serviced individually replacing any worn bearings or parts required (with your consent). The wheels are checked for trueness and tension and the tubeless sealant inspected and topped up as necessary. This service takes around 5 hours.
Full Suspension Frame Service £60 (Inc VAT. Excluding parts)
Additional charges that could apply:
Internal routing charge £25
Bosch E-Bike software update/diagnosis £15
For the Full Suspension bikes this extra work is essential every 18months – 2years. A complete strip down of all moving frame parts, replacing any seized or worn pivot bearings/bushes with specialist tools. Before being re assembled with freshly greased joints and thread lock (in line with the manufactures torque settings).
