ROAD AND COMMUTER BIKE SERVICES
Minimum spend and call-out fees
The minimum labor charge is $130 inc GST. We travel anywhere in metro Melbourne. The first 10km from Richmond, Surrey Hills, and Oakleigh are free, and additional distance is charged at $4 per km in one direction. Small/quick jobs within the areas above still require a call-out fee, usually $40-50 on top of job cost (things like punctured tubes, broken chain, quick quotes on-site).
Spare parts
Spare parts for the common jobs on most bikes are carried on board, such as cables, pads, chains, cassettes, chainrings, tires, tubes, bar tape, grips, and so on. All work and replacement parts will be carried out following your approval.
We keep it clean and easy
All work is carried out in our service vans on the street or your driveway, not in your lounge room. We leave no trace and require no water or electricity to operate. Rainy days are no problem.
Payments
We accept Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, bank deposit, and cash.
