Everything You Say
Here are all the lovely things people have said about our service over the past ten years.
It was another great annual service, making me feel confident on a bike which I rely on daily. Thank you!

Very happy with the service all round. Friendly and efficient, communication was good, I felt listened to as I explained what I wanted, which wasn't completely run-of-the-mill. They managed to disable the Coaster Brake on my combined Coaster/Gearbox hub whilst retaining the gears, which another shop had told me was not possible. Thank you!

The guys have done such a great job with my Orange P7, excellent service experience, friendly, knowledgeable and able to work with your needs.
The bike is fab, new lease of life and runs like silk.
Thank you

Very many thanks for restoring my Pashley back to former glory! It rides even better than when I got it over 15 years ago! I really appreciate all the care and attention to everything - and of course for capping the labour at the initial estimate. It’s such a joy to have squeak-free brakes and seamless gear changes. I’ve fallen in love with it all over again! Thank you!

I'd just like to say a big thank you for the amazing service we received. At all stages of the process the service was helpful, professional, informative and really friendly. Thanks so much - I would definitely use South Coast Bikes again and recommend to friends.

The service was excellent. My son's bike has been in the garage all winter & the brakes & tyres needed looking at. You are notified if anything needs repairing above the service & this is made clear. The bike was collected Tuesday & returned on Thursday, looking like new again.

I just collected my bike from these guys and was blown away by what they did and how it looks. I haven't ridden it yet but Im sure it'll be great. My 12 y/o Scott Sportster looks so good I thought I was on an episode of The Repair Shop. Thanks SCB. Fantastic job.

First time trying SCB and I was very pleased. I took two bikes for service and from the initial diagnosis by Daniel and completion of the work I was kept fully informed and the work was completed in the agreed timescale and at a fair price. The work carried out was excellent and the bikes came back fully cleaned. I would not hesitate to use SCB again and to recommend.

Really efficient service from booking right through to pick up and delivery back on the same day. My bike is very old and needed a lot of replacement parts so it wasn't a cheap job but is now running like new! So pleased I got it done. Thanks.

Many thanks to Liam and the team who have transformed my Croix De Fer into a more 'gravelly' machine with the installation of a SRAM 1x groupset. It didn't prove to be the easiest conversion but I was kept informed throughout the process which is so rare these days. The bike runs sweetly and has already been introduced to some gentle offroading where the new gearing has been a great help. A first-class business focussed on fantastic customer service. Thank you all very much.

Thank you so much for the top notch service on my ageing bike. I see a lot of people on here saying that their bike feels like new after one of your services, and I can totally vouch that it's true! I don't think my bike has ever felt so solid and smooth after a bit of TLC from you guys. Many thanks for a friendly professional job, James

After years of neglect my bike was in a bad way but after a the service from South Coast Bikes it is like new again. Now rides really well !! Very professional service by people that know what they are talking about and the pick up and drop of service was excellent. I heard of this service through word of mouth and will definitely be recommending South Coast Bikes to my friends.

South Coast renewed my poor old neglected bike and not only does it now ride like new, it's also looking far more healthier! I'd like to say a big thank you to Dan and Aaron for their hard work and (no doubt) perserverance! I'll certainly be using SC to service my bike in future, you now have another loyal customer. Can't recommend these guys enough :)

Just to say thanks for getting my bike back on the road, I used your service as I needed my bike picking up serviced and returned as I had no way of getting my bike to you myself. I found the service very proffesional with polite staff and my bike looks great. I will use you again especially as your company went the extra mile in picking my bike up even thou I was outside your pick up area.lol.

The only possible explanation for the transformation you’ve achieved with my bike is that you went out and bought me a new one! Fantastic job – many thanks indeed!

What a fantastic service. My bike was in dire need of some TLC and these guys have restored it to its former glory. Not only did they pick up and drop off at a time that suited me but the cost was also very reasonabl and my bike feels like new (In fact better than new!)
I will definitley be using this service again and will tell all my friends to do the same!

Haha - just rode my beloved and much used Whyte for the first time since getting it back from SCBikes where it's had a thorough servicing and it's brilliant. Felt like I had an extra couple of gears and couldn't help grinning during an off road descent cos everything felt so tight and secure(headset, suspension, brakes). My first time with SCBikes but I'll definitely be back again!

My 5 year old board man was needing a bit of TLC so decided to use SCB again.
Guy came round promptly and checked bike over and saw exactly what was needed(a lot) They also rang me before adding a new chainring and telling me the price.
bike came back and its like new, although did get a shock on how good the brakes are now.
great job SCB

The guys did a complete overhaul of my 9 year old GT iDrive 2.0 MTB and prepared it for use on road ready for London to Brighton. Feels better than new and really looking forward to the 50 mile road ride and then for afterwards swapping the tyres to get back on the trails. Excellent service and great advice on work needed doing.

Major Service and a few parts came to £70 which I thought was allot. However... the bike feels like new and I can’t believe the difference. It has to be one of the best £70 I’ve ever spent. I would highly recommend these guys. Fantastic service all round. Picked up the bike and gave me a rough estimate then called to let me know the exact cost before completing the work. Delivered the bike with a thorough handover as to the work carried out and what I should do to maintain the work. I think Dan carried out the work and as stated earlier the bike is as good a new (in fact now feels better). London to Brighton this Sunday and now with the work carried out I might have a fighting chance of finishing in one piece. Highly recommended.

I have had my Specialised bike for 5 years and now after Josh at South Coast Bikes fixed my problems as if with a magic wand it has NEVER been so good ! From my previous experience with this company service is second to none, first names rememberer, and a warm genuine hand shake in conclusion of business. Free pick up and delivery an added bonus . Thanks guys !

After having my bike stolen, a friend gave me an old neglected bike. The guys at SCB transformed it into a very useable bike at a reasonable cost and in only 3 days. Having previously used other bike servicing companies in the Brighton area, I would definitely recommend these guys from now on. Thank you.

Great service - already used the guys for a service - very helpful with arranging pick up and drop off. Speedy & good quality bike service - excellent communication and advice. My bike came back a bike in great shape & on time. I have used several shops in town but they are without doubt the best I have used.

South Coast Bikes service was excellent, starting with a quick call and assesment of my bike on collection, with a honest a good quote on the price to fix my bike, to a prompt return of my bike riding better than new, I will be a returning customer and value this easy to use company.

They were happy to revive my ancient, knackered, much-loved racing bike which is working like a treat now. It was so nice that they could see its value, unlike a couple of other bike places where I got dismissive comments and the advice to buy a new one. More recently they went out of their way, quite literally, to help me with a freak problem with my other bike.

Bike was picked up on time on Monday morning, had a call on Tuesday mid-morning saying they were just starting, then had a call at about 2pm saying it was all done and would I like it back that evening! Score! Bike runs like an absolute dream - feels better than when it did new! Highly recommended, will certainly be using again

Super impressed with the scb service. After my slightly ham-fisted attempts to fix my wife's Trek Halfords wanted £150 to fix it and suggested I buy one of their BSOs (read the article on the scb website). scb charged us less than half the Halfords quote, picked the bike up on Saturday morning and we had it back on Monday afternoon working like new and totally transformed. Thanks again.

Great service. Took my almost new Trek 7.6 FX in to South Coast Bikes after a minor accident and a problem with the gears autoshifting. Evans (who I bought it from) had looked at it, said it was ok but could not diagnose the problem. South Coast spotted the issue instantly (bent rear derailler mounting bracket) and fixed it in 20 minutes. Impressed !

Just had my bike serviced by SouthCoastBikes.co.uk and I have to say that the service I received was fantastic. The collected when they said they would(Sat am) and the bike was ready 24 hours later, and I was able to collect on the Sunday. They offered to deliver as part of the service, but it was more convenient for me to collect. I'll definitely be recommending this company and will use them again!

Was highly recommended South Coast Bikes by a friend and was not disappointed!! The pickup service made it easy to fit in with a busy schedule, and the quoting system reasonable and realistic. The job was done super promptly and expertly! The first ride on my trusty old racer felt like riding a new bike and just felt so cool...almost shed a tear! Thank you South Coast Bikes! You guys rock!

I have had my bike for about 3 years. During this time I have had a few services at other bike shops which have been ok and kept it running. 3 months ago the gear system went and I stopped riding it. Since then it has been left outside. To be honest I thought it had seen the end of its days. However I decided to call up Southcoast bikes to see if they could get it back on the road. I found the service to be second to none they were very friendly and helpful. When they came to give me a quote they gave me all the options. It was a little more expensive than I expected because the bike needed a complete overhaul. They returned it to me two days later and I was, and am, truly amazed. My bike looks like new. It runs better than it has ever done even when I brought it new. Thank you so much to the team. I’m looking forward to moving to London and spending many happy hours on my new bike!

I have a 6 yr old bike which has had zero maintenance. I nervously booked this system, and was pleasantly surprised by the fast and professional service that I have received. The bike is now like new and has a new lease of life. This is an excellent customer experience, and the price was very fair.

My bike was in radical need of an MOT, was picked up and delivered again when promised and is as good as new. The saddle was too high to ride when returned to me, but one quick call to SCB and Matt came round to adjust the saddle height the same day. Great service.

I was so pleased to receive my bike back following Monday after pick up previous saturday. It had had great service in which Matt apparently came in to do especially on his day off! It had already gone in for a previous service with Evans, cost: £125 with a £10 discount voucher.. They did admittedly give me new chain. But when I cycled Monday it felt different, the brakes worked fine and you could tell it had been thoroughly checked over. It only cost me £41. My bike is white and it had even been cleaned :). Thank you to Matt and Andy and everyone at South Coast Bikes. Good job.

It's the first time I have used the services of South Coast Bikes, and I have to say, I am impressed. The pick-up was on time, Andy was friendly and helpful.

Wow!! What can I say! You collected my son's bike promptly (and to say it needed a bit of TLC would be an understaement), basically overhauled it, and returned it as promptly as you collected it. It is like a brand new bike.... I really, really did not expect so much. My son is so chuffed!. I will definitely recommend your company to others and will defintely be a returning customer. Thanks once again to the 'team'.

You made my 10-mile round commute a joy to do again! After the service my bike is a joy and so easy to ride again. It shaved 7-minutes off my commute time and I hardly broke a sweat, compared to the huffing and puffing wreck I used to be when I arrived at work. The only downside is, I was relying on the daily huff'n'puff workout ride to get me into my wedding dress in October. Now I'll have to do some 'proper' exercise... Cheers guys!

I'd been having problems with the gears slipping on my mountain bike for 6months. I had taken it to two different cycle places over a two months period but neither had fixed the problem despite not insignificant costs. I gave up and went back to riding my 20year old bike until I was given the South Coast Bikes Postcard. One last attempt I thought, and am I glad I did. Within 24hours my bike was returned and I can honestly say it is better now than when I collected it from the showroom 5years ago. I will make sure I pass on your details to anyone I know who has a bike. Thanks to the whole team!

Hi, Gave you two bikes to service, a road and mountain bike. The guy who collected them thought that the suspension could not be fixed and would need a new fork but - to my surprise - you returned it working again! Both bikes now working like new. Thanks - great job.

Absolutely awesome service and top guys to deal with. Had my road bike looked at after a year or so without a service and it has never run better.

Pickup/drop off service exactly what I need as I work. Replaced and serviced all items so much so that the bike felt like new again, slick gear changes, trued wheels and brakes that work. Excellent work.

What a truly professional service - my bike was away for 48 hours and came back like new. The price was excellent and standard of service first class. I would recommend to all to use these guys

I gave you my bike in sore need of attention, you have given it back slicker, more efficient and more sparkly than when I first bought the bike. Your customer service is top notch and your prices very very reasonable. You guys will be the recommendation I make to anyone in need of bike assistance. Thank you so much :o)

Thanks for the great job you did servicing and repairing my Brommie. It seems to ride even better now than the day I rode it new from the shop. I'll definately be back with more bikes.

Many thanks for the rapid turnaround on my Dawes Super Galaxy. I rode it to work this morning and it runs like a dream, I'm all set for my tour in France in October! I would not hesitate to use South Coast bikes for any servicing in the future.

A big thank you SCB for doing an excellent job on my folding bike... after 4 years of hard cycling and chucking on and off trains it was in dire need of some tlc! You've done a fantastic job - it's like new now. Great service, fast & friendly and reasonable - "one day all bike repair shops will be this way..." Cheers Chris

Late Sunday afternoon - Klein bike plus two other wheels out of action - email enquiry to SCB with almost instantaneous phone call back! Monday 8.30 am - Collected from home Monday PM - Klein and two wheels fixed perfectly Tuesday evening - By arrangement, delivered back home More like a professional Formula 1 pitstop than the usual bike-shop malaise, waiting times and poor service.

My 70's racer came back to life after few hours with their caring hands. It is faster than ever. But what is more, the new parts they fitted match incredible well the old school style of the bike. This brilliant service is just the result of professionals who love their job. Thanks.

Thank you so much for an excellent job. My bike really does feel new. I was particularly impressed how you managed to pick it up and drop it off in all that snow! You kept me well informed and did exactly what you said you were going to do. I will certainly recommend you to all my friends.

I was having trouble with my gears on my Rayleigh touring bike since I bought it. I'd already taken it to another shop in Brighton to be fixed, but it wasn't. Even after I paid £10 for the service! At the end of my tether with it I called South Coast Bikes. I was apprehensive at first because it cost £41 and my bike only cost me £36, but it was completely worth it. It rides better than it ever has and I'm sure I will get countless pleasurable rides out of it in future. I would definitely not go anywhere else while I am still living in Brighton. Many thanks guys! :)

Problems with my front changer were fixed but revealed other issues. Became a bit of a problem with my front gears but SCB's guys persevered and even ended up replacing my front spindle at no charge. It took a few hiccups and while to get there but eventually I had a bike that was a lot better than when they took it. Pickup & delivery was excellent too. Nice one guys.

As a South Coast virgin I am blown away by the service these guys offer. From a prompt collection, through the clear quote provided, the drop off at the promised time and the standard of work they exceeded my expectations at all times. Highly recommended and I'll certainly be using them again…

I have been using South Coast Bikes for a few years now, and there really isn't anything else like it. Sometimes the final charge is higher than quoted but that is usually because they are so thorough in checking the bike over and fixing it properly.

It's funny. I don't leave feedback on websites. But South Coast Bikes have been looking after my bikes for the last few years now and every time, without fail, they do a great job. I trust what they say and know that if I have any questions, they'll sort it. Nice one.

SCB did a great job refurbishing a tired Specialized Endro Comp back to life with a completely new XT drive and chainset. Better than the race mechanics i had when doing the UCI rounds. Many thanks Paul for a new lease of my bike has had. Will be recommending to many fellow freeriders!

Thanks Paul - within a week of getting my ride back in mint condition, I'd already booked in my son's bike as the speed, quality, price and trust that my bike was being cared for, was enough to convince me to return and return again to South Coast Bikes

My brother David and my partner Steven have both brought their bikes to you and have been very happy with results. They feel they can trust you for your professionalism, expert knowledge, speed and a passion for excellent communication and customer care. None of which they experienced with Halfords which was frustrating and soul destroying - their staff do not have a passion for bikes nor a motivation to satisfy customers!

tip-top notch, Bike like new and a dream to ride, back to p*ssing off taxi drivers in Brighton like a good-un. Well happy with the work and service provided. Why bother with snooty bike shops ever again. I would say that I'll be using again and again and again, but i'm confident that the work carried out will mean a long while before any more is required. Highly recommended.

You should add 'compassionate' to your 'friendly local' definition. My trusty old bike had been so scorned and derided until the day South Coast Mobile Bikes arrived, smiled and treated its well travelled parts to some expert care. We'll be back!
