Many thanks Mark for the excellent and quick job you did on my bike before the Motor Neurone Disease Association charity ride at Preston Park in Brighton. I have an old Ridgeback which had seen better days. I asked The Velo Doctor to do what he could. Unfortunately it was too late for the Ridgeback!

Great service, good pricing. Docor Velo is a champion. He repaired my sons bike in record time, last minute. He's really friendly, very knowledgeable and fast working. He clearly loves bikes and it shows. He's also patient, think I was a tough customer and he only ever made me feel welcome. Very polite and professional. Absolutely will use him again and would highly highly recommend. Top find.

I've used the Velo Doctor for a few repairs and always been impressed by the quality and speed of his work.
I had a rear wheel from my XC bike trued and it has been rock solid since.
A really annoying, rounded off cleat bolt was dealt with in no time!
Mark is friendly and knows his stuff.
Highly recommended!
