Ben has been fixing my bikes for years. He's a top rate mechanic with competitive prices. No job is too big or small, and he's really flexible if you find yourself in a hole. Nice bloke too. Just about everyone I ride with uses him and I've never heard a bad word said. Highly recommended.

Ben managed to fit my bike in for a repair and service when everyone else said there was a 2 month waiting list. He did an excellent job of making a 10+ year old bike handle like brand new again and at very reasonable cost as well. Would have no hesitation in recommending his services. Great job. Thanks.

Ben is awesome! When all bike shops in the area indicated a 2 month wait to service a bike urgently, Ben, even though he was clearly extremely busy himself, agreed to take a look and then turned it around in a couple of days. It was such a good experience I asked him to do another two bikes consecutively and he turned them around in no time. I have a good idea of the cost of necessary parts for all three bikes and together with labour, this was extremely competitive. He was always professional and friendly. Very impressive customer service and at no time did I ever feel ripped off. I have no reservation in recommending Allied Cycles and have done so with friends already.

Ben at Allied has been servicing and repairing my and my friends bikes for the last couple of years. He is very trustworthy, professional and always very competitive on price. Always worth a quick call for good advice also.

Exceptional service received by Ben and Tom and cannot recommend them highly enough. Works carried out to the highest of standards and was kept fully informed throughout when they fixed a number of issues on a MTB for me recently. A genuine passion and enthusiasm for biking that comes through in the high quality of their work and their customer service. Brilliant on all counts and I highly recommend them.

Started using Allied Cycles after a recommendation from a fellow cycling club member and must say very glad I did. None of the often-seen bike shop arrogance. Instead, a friendly and extremely knowledgeable team of mechanics with a refreshingly pragmatic approach to fixing problems rather than upselling components. Highly recommend you give them a call no matter how big or small your problem.

Great communication, engaged customer service, non-arrogant no ‘come back in 6 months when we have a free slot’... Doesn’t sound like most high street/chain bike stores does it? No, very different. Allied cycles are great and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Ben and team sorted my bike and turbo trainer out and have been patient with me as I variously misdiagnosed what was wrong in the first place. Thanks again guys.

Ben was really accommodating; my daughter's bike needed a quick repair and he managed to squeeze it in despite having a full day already. Good value, excellent work and very friendly. Great service - thank you.

Superb 1st class service from Ben and the team. Always a professional job done every time I've taken my pride & joys down for service or repair. Highly recommend Allied cycles for any work needed.

This guy is brilliant! He epitomises every reason why we should all be keeping small businesses alive. Friendly, convenient and simple to talk to without being made to feel like an idiot. Too many bike shops/car garages seem to fall into that category where you just feel intimidated to even go in! He's a real nice guy and I couldn't recommend highly enough for his knowledge, professionalism and ability to speak to laymen about bikes! Couldn't recommend him highly enough!
