Mike's Bikes is happy to be supporting the showing of David Millar's film "Time Trial" at the MMC!. We are soon going to be launching what we believe to be a world first - a bike maintenance subscription service!. We haven't moved too far - we are now on the other side of Barrow from our previous location.

We can now fix and repair tubular tyres, whether that is patching a puncture, base tape repair or a full tube swap. As winter is fast approaching we're getting lots of requests for wheel rebuilds and new wheel builds - here is one set just finished today. As one of the only dealers of Chain-L lubricant, we're pleased to say it is finally back in stock!.

Services Report

We have a fully and recently refurbished workshop available for all types of repair work and servicing. Whether your bike is secondhand or a custom wonderbike, you can rest assured we will repair it as if it's our own. When off the peg just isn't quite right - as perfectionists we are well aware of how minor changes can turn a fine bike into a perfect bike, and how sometimes stock bikes just don't cut it.

FAQs Report

We can pick bikes up from your house or work at a time suitable for you and drop them off too. Simply drop us a line to set a time!. Of course and without a surcharge or snotty look either! With bike parts being offered at very competitive prices elsewhere we actively encourage it. We will do our best to help you get the correct part too.

Positive: Quality
I went to Mike when I was in the area for a month to fix up my gravel bike. Excellent service with real attention to detail and he even introduced me to a ladies riding club to join while I was there. Will definitely go back when I’m back in the area.

Took my bike to Mike after repeated problems with my usual local bike shop. He fixed the problem straight away and worked some magic on the rest of the bike leaving it feeling brand new. Really nice guy to deal with too, wish I had found Mike's Bikes years ago

Mike is very friendly and knowledgeable. He turned my bike service around very quickly and gave me some really useful advice.
Hope to join the group rides soon too.
Highly recommended.

Mike's passion for bikes is evident on first meeting him. He was upfront with pricing, timescales and his communication was excellent. He ascertained very quickly what needed to be rectified on both of our bikes and what could be salvaged via a thorough service. The bikes are looking as good as new after sitting idle for a couple of years under cover in the garden. Mike serviced the bikes, replaced various parts, fitted a child seat and a pannier rack, so that our family can now enjoy bike riding together.
We will not go anywhere else other than Mikes Bikes for anything bike related from now on

Mike is absolutely brilliant! Called him Friday lunchtime and he picked up my bike from home the same afternoon, took it to his work shop, fixed it and returned it for 1030 the next morning. He took the time to explain what he had done as part of the service (and why) and even fitted a piece of bikejor kit for free for me when he dropped the bike back.
I work full time and have a ‘side hustle’ during evenings and weekends which left me absolutely stuck for getting my bike fixed until I found Mike! Absolutely delighted and will be using him again.
Top bloke, top service! When you meet him

My daughters bike is very important to her, to get to work on a daily basis. It began with a puncture, then the chain and the list went on. Mike collected the bike despite being injured. I think he just about rebuilt it, new tyres, even new hand grips. He carried out a wonderful job. Delighted with the service and the work done. Thankyou.

Mike did a fantastic job in rescuing a mid-tour disaster. A spoke snapped on my rear wheel when we were 100 miles in on a 300 mile tour. Fortunately we broke down close to Mike’ place and he swapped out the wheel and cassette and fettled my bike. Thank you Mike for your trust and care. We couldn’t have completed our tour without you.

Good guy, very helpful and friendly service - Would definitely recommend to anyone!
My bike needed some TLC (new bearings and truing the wheels etc...) and Mike got straight to it.
Work was done to a very high standard and at a very reasonable price. Nice to be able to take my bikes to someone who is obviously passionate and knowledgeable about what he does ......and being local is a massive bonus.
