Basic Bike Maintenance Course with Nigel

This review is for Nigel’s beginner bicycle maintenance course. A course I would highly recommend. During the course Nigel covered many areas of how to become basic bike confident. Learning about the anatomy of the bike, how to deal with punctures and repair them. Brake pad balancing, how to spot a bent gear hanger, these were just some of the areas I learnt. Nigel was patient, kind and a fountain of knowledge for the duration of the course. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and feel far more confident with basic bike maintenance.
Thank you Nigel.

Great Service

We bought two Raleigh electric bikes before lockdown from the Sidcup Cycle Centre. We had problems with the chargers and returned both bikes for review. Rayleigh agreed to replace the chargers as they were faulty. Due to lockdown getting spare parts from Rayleigh turned into a long saga.
I would like to thank Nigel for giving us regular updates even when he had no news. Also, as a gesture of goodwill he serviced both bikes for free of charge whilst they were in the workshop.

Bike service review

Brought four bikes in for a service and once Nigel had a look he advised that very little work was required and wasn’t worth doing a full service yet on two of them and explained what work was required for the other two. Work was done quickly and efficiently. Really helpful and honest. Would definitely use them again.

I used the Saturday drop in service and Nigel was very informative, explaining the issues and the repair work required. He quoted a fair price and completed the work on time. I was reassured from moment I walked into the shop that this is a reputable, efficient workshop. I won't hesitate to return should I need too.

These people are Ronseal

These people are Ronseal. They take your bike when they say. Service it the way they say. And return it to you when they say. Who could ask for more.

Brilliant help, advice and servicing

We have 4 bikes in the family, a bmx for school, a mountain bike hybrid for everyday and the coast paths, and two road racing bikes. They all go to Sidcup cycle centre for servicing and repairs. Honestly, they are brilliant there. They fix the bikes when they say they will, and never make me, as a relatively incompetent mother, feel as daft as I deserve to when I ask stupid questions.
