The Bristol Bike Project

Repairs And Services

Is your trusty steed in need of some TLC?
No time to do it yourself? Let us do the hard work for you!

"Couldn't recommend more! I bought a bike off gum-tree and it was in awful condition. I took it for a full service at BBP and it is now like I have a completely brand new mountain bike. The staff in there are very friendly and honest- much more trustworthy than the big bike chains who will just rip you off. Would 100% recommend BBP to anyone looking for good bike servicing/parts/repairs at a good price." Michael

Here’s how it works

We offer a full repair and maintenance service. Any profit we make will be reinvested in our community programmes which help people from across Bristol get out on two wheels.

Drop in with your bike during our opening hours to book your repair or service.

What can you expect from us?

  • We’ll provide a full quote when you bring your bike in, free of charge.
  • Once your bike is finished, we’ll give you a call to let you know.
  • All bikes repaired by us are given a thorough test ride before being returned to you.

Prefer to do the work yourself?

Come along for Bike Kitchen or Raise the Saddle, and if you’re new to bike mechanics, check out one of our maintenance courses first!

"The Bristol Bike Project re-engineered the gears on my old commuter bike with second hand spares. 3 weeks in and the results are excellent. Work was completed in 3 days as quoted and for a fantastic price. I'm really happy that parts are being re-cycled, staff and service was great." David
