Our workshop is prepped and ready for your pride and joy
Our expert team of mechanics will take great care in making sure your Tandem is in tip-top shape for your next ride.
Why have your tandem cared for at The Tandem Experience & Tandem Shop?
Whether its a puncture repair, servicing or a full custom build, our team of technicians here are on hand to take care of almost anything you or your tandem needs. With a collective experience of over 100 years of cycle servicing and building we can guide you through anything from a full custom build to changing brake pads with fair, honest and transparent pricing. Getting your tandem back in action as quickly and as safely as possible is our main priority. We look at every job on an individual basis and will only charge you for the work we do.
Book a service
Due to demands on our busy workshop, we try to operate both a pre-booking and a drop off systems for servicing to ensure you are back on the road or trail as quickly as possible (we also know problems can occur mid ride so will always try our best to help out!). We feel this is the fairest way of running our workshop. You can contact us on 01952 458340 or by emailing the workshop on info@tandeming.co.uk to discuss booking in and workshop turnaround. We are all riders here and appreciate tandems need tweaks from time to time; if time allows we are more than happy to do minor on the spot repairs.
When your tandem arrives we will perform an initial inspection of it with you and if possible we will give you an approximate costing for the parts and work needed. If any further work is needed outside of this, we will contact you first.
Once the repair is complete you will be contacted by a method of your choice via : Text, phone call or email to let you know the repair is complete and the tandem is ready for collection.
On collection of your tandem we will talk you through all work undertaken and highlight any areas which may need further attention. You will also receive information detailing work done to your bike, with all information available at any time at a later date. Repairs are payable on collection.
Our workshop is incredibly busy and we value our storage space in order to continue to be able to offer great service and turnaround. After completion and notification of any work, tandems will be stored for 7 days free of charge. Any additional time in storage will incur a charge of £10/day unless previously arranged with the workshop.
We charge an hourly rate of £45 per hour that reflects our skills, time and investment in our workshop to keep your tandems safe on the road and trail.
For minor servicing such as gears or brakes it’s still best to phone ahead and book, although we can cope with some quick adjustments if you just drop by, however, please don’t feel offended if we are busy and we are unable to oblige, so it is best to phone and book.
