Bike Fitting
Our expert bike fitting service resolves ergonomic issues through comprehensive analysis of rider positioning. Using dynamic assessment during test rides, we make precise adjustments to handlebars, saddle position, and cleat alignment to eliminate discomfort and improve efficiency. Customers report significant reductions in shoulder and hand pain, with measurable improvements in cycling performance and comfort over long distances.
Suspension Servicing
As a Fox Approved Service Station, we provide complete suspension servicing for all mountain bike brands. Our specialist tools and technical expertise enable precise damper rebuilds, air spring calibration, and custom tuning to match rider weight and terrain preferences. This ensures optimal suspension performance, with customers noting dramatically improved ride quality and component longevity.
Cycle Coaching
Our qualified coaches deliver personalised instruction for road and mountain biking, focusing on technique refinement and confidence building. Sessions cover cornering, climbing, descending, and technical trail navigation. We also offer power testing and pedal stroke analysis using Watt bikes to identify performance metrics and develop targeted training plans for competitive cyclists.
Mobile Repairs
Our mobile repair service provides emergency roadside assistance and scheduled maintenance across the Highlands. Equipped with essential tools and spare parts, we perform puncture repairs, mechanical fixes, and component replacements at your location. This service is particularly valuable for cyclists participating in long-distance events or those with limited workshop access in remote areas.

Leveraging our PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry, we offer tailored dietary guidance for cyclists. Services include power-to-weight ratio analysis, body composition measurement, and customised eating plans for training, competition, and recovery. This scientific approach helps optimise energy levels, enhance performance, and maintain ideal racing condition throughout the cycling season.
