About
Creating a better place ...
where we help you get to work or to the shops or just get out for a ride in a fun, healthy and environmentally responsible way - and with the right equipment so that you are pretty sure it's not going to be a one way trip
Part of creating a better place is moving to a new website ... we have started that journey with the information pages - just click on "Shop" to get back to the online shop
About our stuff
We will only supply you with stuff which we would use ourselves - yes including our Brompton bikes
Why settle for good when you can have BRILLIANT?
However, if you have to pay to park in your local town centre - it may be cheaper to buy and take advantage of our free delivery to mainland UK
Meet the team!

How many bikes is too many?
Getting slower and slower despite training more and more
Too many bikes (in so much as they sometime feel neglected and start calling our for attention - or is that just a bottom bracket squeaking)
Interested in what makes us tick?
Constant improvement
Our tagline is "Creating a better place ...." we try and do that with everything, it's why we ask for so much feedback (sorry if it's overwhelming). We believe in constant and never ending improvement.
Flexibility
We will do our best (as long as it is responsible) to give you what you are looking for. If there is something you are looking for but can't find, ask us - we may be able to help. If we can't we will do our best to point you in the right direction. Of course, flexibility means change too - so check back!
Honesty / Integrity
We like to believe that everyone does the best they can - so we trust you and hope that you will repay our trust
Fun
We are here (probably like you?) to have fun in life and everything we do - we don't want life to be too serious - after all, we only get one attempt! That also gives us license to be a bit different (special! Some people call it)
Energy
We put our energy into what we do - because we enjoy what we do!
Respect
Treat others as you would like to be treated - it really has worked for us - so far at least
So, get on your bike, push yourself
and help us to create a better place
We love our work!
