I cannot praise Stuart and his skills high enough. Stuart always has a can do attitude and provides a great service with a smile, all for a reasonable price in a timely manner. Thank you Stuart, amazing service. Phil Jenkinson

I bought a very unusual 150mm QR front fork on a Salsa Beargrease, Stuart is the only person I know who would take a Hope 170mm QR and make it fit. Brilliant job as usual. Still using Stuart and I live in North Wales. Can't beat a great bike mechanic.

Been taking my bikes to Stuart for a few years now and I always receive excellent service and the work is always of high quality. He has years of experience and a vast amount of knowledge on all things bike related, from the classics and current bikes to the future trends in the sport.

Stuart is so meticulous and calm and confident it makes me wonder if I do what I do for a living as well. I made a last minute request for some help with my bike and he not only 'fitted me in' but for those fifteen crucial minutes I was the only thing that mattered to him. He puts the pro in professional – with panache on top. Bloody good cyclist too. Chapeau!

When you make the mistake of buying wheels on line and they don't work, you need someone like Stuart. It wasn't initially obvious what was wrong, and he could easily have told me just to send them back, but he didn't. He persevered and sorted out the problem, meaning I can use them this weekend in the year's first triathlon. Thanks Stuart

Stuart has looked after my bike on a number of occasions in the last couple of years including di2 malfunctions, seized breaks, check over and repair after a bump and more di2 mishaps. He has always been able to fit me in at short notice and with a very quick turn around. He offers great value for money and impartial advise on all things biking!

WHY? Because you always get five star service. Stuart is an excellent bike technician very knowledgeable and passionate about all things cycling.

Stuart is very patient, competent and open. He explained the major bike service piece by piece, costed it quickly and despite changes stuck to price. Delivered ahead of time to budget - perfect- thanks Stuart

Stuart is always helpful and has time for you. Has loads of tips and nothing is too much for him.

It is not a coincidence that Stuart has over 50 5 star reviews. I took my bike to him this morning with a gear problem that 2 previous mechanics had failed to sort out, despite having told me they had done all they good to optimise the 1 x 11 set up. Stuart thought his way through the problem and sorted it out same day. He also gave me some very helpful advice about how to get maximum life from the transmission. I have been visiting bike shops for over 25 years and I can honestly say that he is the most competent, confidence inspiring mechanic I have come across in a long time. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others. Dan Hill

Fantastic service and a real pleasure to talk to. Did a superb job on suzy and she now back on the road. Thank You very much Stuart and hope to see you soon.

Stuart is a legend. I'm new to the area and took my bike yesterday lunchtime with a damaged pedal thread that another bike shop said couldn't be repaired, but Stuart fixed it and serviced it in record time. He is really knowledgeable and a genuinely nice guy who I feel I can trust with my bikes. I am looking forward to a ride/breakfast on Embsay Crag!

Stuart prepared an insurance crash report for my bike which was damaged in a collision. The service and speed in preparing the report was excellent and I was impressed with his cycling knowledge and the cleanliness of his workshop. Thoroughly recommended.

If you can find better service in a bike shop then I will eat my overshoes. Always friendly, helpful and courteous. As an Engineer who has been looking after bikes for over 30 years there are not many people I would trust with my bikes and Stuart is top of the list. Definitely worth a serious detour if you need solid advice and first class service.

Helped me strip down my DT Swiss hub, that I couldn't do. Stuart is so pleasant as well as being technically fantastic. I wouldn't go anywhere else if I needed a bike building. A top place for individual service.

Thanks so much to Stuart for sorting out the mess I'd got my bike into today by riding through some sticky tar that they'd put down prior to resurfacing the Malham-Arncliffe road. I turned up without booking and he cleaned up the mess straight away, trying several products before finding the best for the job. And he didn't even make me feel stupid :)

If carlsberg did local bike stores… …Whilst away on holiday my bike developed a loud clunking when peddling. I suspected a problem with the bottom bracket. I called Stuart who was able to look at it the same day, less than two hours later problem solved and new BB30 bearings fitted. Awesome service from a knowledgeable mechanic who provides value for money. Thank you

I have shipped the bike from abroad so I could get a few rides in during my time in the UK. It must have gotten knocked during transportation and the rear mech hanger was out if line. After a really annoying ride with gears all over the place i popped into see Steve and within seconds the bike was on a repair stand, expensive special tools to the ready and the mech hanger was aligned and gears were perfect. Awesome service, especially as I walked in unannounced with no appointment...... Many thanks

I've known Stuart for a few years now, and find him, and his business to be a breath of fresh air! Stuart's knowledge of all things pedal powered is immense, and he is always happy to answer questions you may have. I did a basic mechanic course with him, and was surprised how much I picked up during the session under his expert guidance. if you are thinking about booking one of these sessions with him, don't hesitate. He makes a good cuppa as well!
