Top notch service and some pretty nice bikes too! August and the workshop crew work on numerous bikes for me, they always do a great job and offer sage advice on maintenance, mods and upgrades. Chain Reaction offer surprisingly competitive prices meaning I can support my local independent bike shop without being out of pocket which is quite unusual. Only issue is the temptation having to walk past all the nice new bikes to get to the workshop!!

These guys are on to it. Wanted some parts for a bike project restore. Contacted Bikes shops locally waste of time, unavailable, not interested, too hard. Contacted the guys at Chain Reaction no problem, can do parts are on the way., they understand the words, good customer service which is a magnet for customer loyalty. Highly recommended. A+++.

If you want a professional bike-fit, go see the team at chain reaction! The team do the full process with analyzing body movements and mobility, critical measurements, to the end result of fine tuning components to get the full bike-fit. Highly recommend to all levels of cycling experience.

Just arrived from USA, had issue with my gravel bike rear mech hanger. The boys were quite nice and quickly helped me with the fix. Matt was kind enough to update me on local bike routes. Walked my broken bike to the shop and rode it home! All good! Will go back for future needs.
