Bike Repairs & Bike Servicing

Regular servicing on any bike is vital to keep it running smoothly and efficiently. A poorly-kept bike will end up costing you more to repair, so it makes sense to keep your bike in good shape from day one. That's why we offer a free first service when you buy your new bike from us.

Thereafter, to keep things simple we have 4 levels of servicing: Safety check, Standard Service, Advanced Service, and Ultimate Service.

Free First Checkover

Like a car, your new bike has a bedding-in period - normally 6-8 weeks, depending on use. It is really important to get your bike fined tuned at this point, so it continues to run as smoothly as it should.

This is why we offer a free first checkover when you buy your new bike from Rutland Cycling. This applies to any ready to ride bike bought from us, in store or online however it does not cover any bike that requires self assembly and you must also bring the bike to one of our stores as we are unable to collect. You can book your checkover in advance at any of our stores.

Expert Technicians

Our workshop technicians are trained to the highest levels including up to Cytech level 3 and above. This gives us the edge over your average bike shop, as we can offer you first-hand advice on any cycling-related issue. Not only can we service your bike professionally and quickly, but we also offer a variety of specialist options, including custom wheel building, custom frame and bike building, fork and shock servicing, and professional advice on set up and positioning.

Cytech - what is it, and why does it matter?

Cytech is the bicycle industry's recognised training and accreditation scheme for bicycle mechanics and retail staff. Cytech delivers training and promotion of technical skills to the bicycle trade and cyclists throughout the UK. It is a comprehensive scheme, covering everything from the basics of bicycle maintenance to complex bike builds and servicing of the newest and most technical products.

The Cytech scheme is owned by the industry and is recognised as the benchmark brand for accreditation of technical skills and quality businesses.

As a customer, when you take your bike into a bike shop that has been Cytech Accredited you can have:

• Peace of mind that your existing bike is in safe hands.
• Confidence that your new bike has been properly set up to manufacturer's guidelines and British Standards.
• Ongoing technical support to ensure your bike runs smoothly.

• Authorised Service Centres

  Not only are Rutland Cycling one of the UKs leading electric bike retailers, we're also a Bosch Expert Dealership. We accept most makes and models of e-bike, and are equipped with the latest tooling and diagnostics.

Brompton Bike Specialists

We can take care of all of your needs as a Brompton owner and commuter. All of our stores which stock Brompton are fully trained to look after your bike and to offer you upgrades and accessories to make your journey smoother.

Smart Bike Washer

Unlike other parts cleaning methods, which use nasty solvents, our Smart Bike Washers use a natural cleaning process called bioremediation to clean and degrease your whole bike, safely and effectively. Book your bike in for a Premium service and we'll use the Smart Bike Washer to get to work on your whole bike, until she's shining like new again. Think of it like treating your bike to a spa treatment for her birthday...doesn't she deserve it once a year?

Tyre & Tube Recycling

We are dedicated to helping the environment and as such we will ensure all of your tyres and tubes are recycled responsibly, and the recycled product put to good use. To find out more, visit Velorim.

We do charge a small levy for this non-profit making operation.
