Servicing and Maintenance

It is advisable to service your bike approximately 6 weeks after taking delivery because brake and gear cables will stretch and will therefore need some adjustment. Thereafter, if you ride the bike a lot (eg. every day or so) every 6 months a service may be required. For the recreational rider, approximately every 12 months the bike should be serviced.

Which service should I get? If the bike is dirty and/or the wheels are buckled then go for a $115.00 Full Service, if not then a $69.00 Checkover Service. Our staff can advise which service would be most appropriate when you drop your bike off.

How long does it take? Generally the service will be completed within 2 weekdays (i.e. drop it off Monday, get it Wednesday) this is dependant on our workload and can sometimes take longer. If you need it sooner just give Lawrencia a call and we will try and accommodate you if we can.

Do I need to book my bike in? No, just drop the bike off at our store.
