All of our mechanics are Cyctech certified and are keen cyclists themselves, plus our workshop has see-through windows so you can see work being carried out

I used Cathal recently when I had a particularly annoying knocking sound on a new bike. Even though it was looked at by a local bike shop (not where I bought it from) and then ultimately shipped back to the manufacturer for them to fix, it came back exactly the same. They said it was stripped down and totally rebuilt.

It took him about a minute to figure out it was one of three things. In less than 5 he had the culprit. He had the replacement part fitted and me cycling off with a big happy grin the next day. Would of been same day only it was the evening and he didn't have the part there and then

Couldn't recommend him enough. Sound chap as well.

edit. He also mentioned he was looking to open a shop but not sure if he has yet.
