Here’s how it works…

Need your bike fixed – Cycletastic can help.

Check the Calendar to see when the shed is open. You can find the shed at Streatley Road

1st Saturday of the month, just turn up. We operate on a first come first served basis. There is an access fee of £5 and then Labour/Tuition is provided on a donation basis. There are new or used parts available at very reasonable prices. If you are on a low income then we are happy for you to pay-what-you-can. Due to demand and time constraints we can only do the more basic repairs at these events. If you have the skills you may also work on your own using our tools.

Ad-Hoc DatesCHECK THE CALENDAR. Provisional dates are listed for most of the cycling season however these are subject to change as our mechanics/volunteers also have day jobs and other commitments. To get a guaranteed repair slot it is best to book in your repair. Get in touch from the contacts page. If the shed is still indicated as open on a Saturday/Sunday you can just drop-in but please note acceptance of any additional repairs will be at the mechanics discretion and on a first-come-first serve basis. Repair work is chargeable at our advertised rates. Proceeds go directly to the mechanic working on your bike with a share taken for the upkeep of the project.

Doorstep Repairs. Get in touch from the contacts page and we might be able to arrange a repair on your doorstep. Repair work is chargeable at our advertised rates. Proceeds go directly to the mechanic working on your bike with a share taken for the upkeep of the project.
