They have the tools and the expertise and will guide you as much or as little as you need when repairing anythign on your bike. What an amazing idea. They ask that non-members donate between £2 and £10 based on how much help you've had, plus they have spare parts to sell you (lots of secondhand components, and they're not for profit so everything is extremely reasonable). Really well kitted out and nice, welcoming volunteers :)

Specialist shops like this are always going to cost a bit to shop in, but I was pleasantly surprised to get a decent bike in the for about £200. The staff initially appear to be reassuringly knowledgeable, capable and friendly. However, every time I have been in there I have ended up with the same member of staff dealing with me. He appears to be unable to set my gears up right and when I took my bike in for a service and mentioned that they were not right he some how managed to make them worse. I was surprised by this. But they do seem quite busy which might have been the problem? What should be an excellent shop has been marred by of incidents of ineptness; perhaps I just got unlucky?

Woodrup is a trusty local independent bike shop with friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff…read more They are always eager to give advice but equally happy to let you browse if you'd prefer. They are well-stocked with high quality cycling equipment and have a broad range of products for all kinds of cyclists and price-ranges. The shop is a good size and neatly stocked with a pleasant, welcoming atmosphere. They also do a wide range of repair services and the quality of their work can be evidenced by the fact that they also service the bikes of local police and paramedics! I recently bought a bike lock there and they were happy to give honest advice on the quality versus price dilemma, making me feel confident that I'd made the best choice for my budget.

I went to recycle engineering on a Monday. The owner a balding older gentlemen who is usually there…read moredid an assessment of my bike. I just needed my brake cables replaced. He started adding other things on my bike that needed to be fixed, I felt he was trying to hustle me. When the price reached 65 pounds I only had so much money on me, I said "could you not replace one of the brake pads" as I thought I could save some money. I didn't understand that it meant that my brakes wouldn't work if he didn't replace them. He then told me he wouldn't do the job then, because as a responsible bike shop owner and by law I need brakes, I tried to tell him it was a misundsrstanding but he kept just telling me off very rudely in front of two other customers waiting behind me. I really needed my bike fixed for work and had walked it all the way to Kirkstall, then all the way from Kirkstall to Hyde park as I had no functional brakes. I felt very uncomfortable around this guy. I felt he was manipulating me by being aggressive, trying to get the most money out of me and then getting angry when he didn't get his way. The previous time I had come along I wanted to think about for 10 seconds if I could afford a certain tire and I tols him I needed a second think and he said very rude "be quick!" My personal opinion is that he is a narcisistic. My other opinion is that he doesn't know how to talk to customers or speak with respect. I think his shop should get shut down until learns how to treat customers humans. Don't support this man there is plenty of other bike shops in Leeds, where you will leave feeling good about yourself and you won't be treated like less than a person. The best part is now it's a few days later and I went to an honest bike repair guy and he said that he could fix my brake cables for twenty quid, was polite, friendly and said by brake pads were fine and wouldn't effect my brakes. So the recycle engineering guy went on a rant about how because I didn't want my back brajw pads replaced to save 25 quid that I was breaking the law to ride without back breaks. He knew I didn't know that much and was manipulating me in a real nasty way. So greedy. It really makes me sick to see people treat other people like this and take advantage of him. I didn't realize how he was hustling me until after, if I would have realized I would have gave him a piece of my mind in front of everybody.

The owner is very talkative and welcoming whatever your level of bike knowledge. He will help find the right bike or, part for you, direct you in how do fix it or just fix it on your behalf. The fact that this workshop has been running successfully for 20 years is a testament to the quality and reliability of service provided. Find the shop at the back of 133 Victoria Road and have your cycle problems vanish.

The location is very convenient to walk down to the city centre while you wait for the job to be done. The did some warranty work on our Clio and most importantly I trust the guys thereeven with my BMW. The nationwide garage chain is AA approved and have been Repairer of the year several times (check their website). They accept Tesco Clubcard vouchers towards MOT and service and their newly revamped website is good for making online bookings as well as occasionally finding money off vouchers. Recently their Fuel Service (see website) has received a lot of good press in improving fuel efficiency of cars.

A selection of bats (from low end to high end), batting pads in all shapes, sizes and weights, and a similarly wide variety of gloves and the now essential helmets. I also remember that they were willing to advise me in terms of exactly what I was looking for and how much I was willing to pay, and I clearly remember that they knocked 10% off the total price because I told them which team I played for. So I went back in last week, and gladly, nothing seems to have changed. I'll remember this place if I ever take up cricket again.

It stocks a fantastic selection of cricket equipment all year round, along with all other sports equipment.

A great shop on Yeadon High Street, with excellent, friendly and knowlegable staff. Well worth a stop by.
