Brilliant service
I usually hate taking my bike into the bike shop for repairs as I'm made to feel like an idiot. But Jake is a super nice guy, really patient and incredibly helpful.

Jake did a major renovation on my old bike at a good price enabling me to have a second bike for visitors to use. I'm excited about getting out with family and friends without the hassle of needing bike carriers.

Knowledgeable and keen to get you back on two wheels. I’d use again for any problems with Canyon bikes.

Silk Cycles is the only place I take my bike now. Staff are friendly and the service is top notch.
Being in Marsh Barton, the shop is located nearby the cycle paths making everything that much easier.
Highly recommend 👍
Amazing group of people, Jake being an ex works cup mechanic has been able to solve every issue I’ve had on the bike swiftly and most importantly in an affordable way, always sticking to my set budget and giving pointers as to what my bike may need!! If you’re looking at giving your bike some much needed care, a deep clean or a quick checkup silk cycles is the place to go. Would recommend highly!
Always excellent service from Jake, with a friendly and welcoming air to any and all cyclists who pop in needing help. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needed bike repairs or supplies!
Great friendly and professional service. Everything was explained and the rates were competitive. The best bike service I've had, would definitely recommend.

Highly recommend. Took my Urban Arrow cargo bike for a gold Service and can really feel the difference. They’re not cheap, but worth every penny. Very professional, thorough with great advice.

The boys at Silk helped me today and I can't thank them enough! I'm riding John O'Groats to Lands End but on my way in to Exeter my crank arm fell off! I managed a roadside repair and got it to their shop.
They fixed my bike, let me degrease and clean my chain, use their tools and wouldn't take any money even though I really wanted to give them something as they were life savers!
They've helped me complete my journey and will be remembered. Top lads and really knew their stuff about bikes... thank you!

New groupset installation - 11-speed Ultegra mechanical to replace my 10-year old 10-speed groupset. Jake was really helpful & my trusty Wilier is now better than ever - gears as smooth as butter, brakes excellent, he even machined the 11-speed cassette to fit on my 10-speed hubs - so happy. A top quality job!
