Shimano Steps Electric Bike Maintenance Training

Company director, Guy Fitzgerald, recently attended the Shimano Steps eBike maintenance training course. “The course enables us to now offer a Shimano Steps diagnostic, repair or replacement service. In addition to Shimano Steps we’re also a qualified Bosch and Yamaha electric bike service centre.”

Tandem Hire Bike

Our new Tandem hire bike has arrived! The Velocity Ridgeback is light weight, easy to handle and has 24 gears to help you get up the hills. Tandems are a great experience to try and makes an ideal gift or birthday present!

Carbon Road Bike Hire

We now hire carbon road bikes from our cycle hire centre on Windermere train station! The Lapierre XELIUS SL 500 DISC carbon road bike is used by the pro team Groupama-FDJ in the Tour de France. Fitted with the Shimano 105 groupset, hydraulic disc brakes, Continental Ultra Sport 2 SL 700x25C tyres and UCI approved frame. This bike is light, smooth and soaks up the miles.
