This shop is not just open to UCD students, it can be used by any member of the public. They sell bikes in here but they also do repairs, i'd say this is probably their main function. They are kind of slow with their repairs however, it seems they work to their own time and expect everyone else to use their time too. I don't want to put this shop down too much because it is a great facility in a great location. Of course it promotes cycling and facilitates people in their attempts at doing their bit for the environment. one nice thing about this shop is the fact that they will let you borrow their tools to do your own repair if its something small, maybe this is not something they do regularly but i reckon if you ask nicely they will help you!

After explaining that I was leaving…read morethe country and wouldn't be back to collect my bike for a week, I was informed, with an attitude, that there was no way they could hold on to a bike for a week. As I was leaving the owner of the store saw fit to make a disparaging remark about the encounter to the customer he was serving. I went to get a quote and was met with a smug, ignorant attitude, which I have encountered from the same guy before. Obviously this man feels that it is acceptable to treat customers in this manner.

I would never go back to this shop again. I was going through some tough times and I had to resort…read moreto selling my bike to make ends meet. It was a very expensive bike worth over 2,000 euros new but was only a few years old and the owner nickel and dimed me over the offer price and I had to walk away with only 180 euro, even though it was newly serviced and in perfect condition. The next day that same owner had it for sale for 450 euro, that is some mark up if you ask me. Not only was he a cheap skate, he was also rude and unprofessional. I wish I could put 0 stars for this place!!!!

I explained what I wanted to the assistant, who then disappeared outside to move a bike, then returned and asked what I wanted. When I said I had already told him, he trudged off upstairs and returned with the basked, without any fixings or attachments. I tried to see how it fitted on the carrier. He let me fiddle around for a while and then turned it at right angles and slid it in. "How does it stay on?" I asked. He glared at me. "Straps", he said. His surly silence and utterly unhelpful behaviour had made the point. These people didn't want to sell me anything, would rather I left. I left. And I won't be back. What a horrible, horrible experience.

However, on that occasion, it was 'cash only'. Today, I had a small, niggling problem with my bike and stopped off on my way home. The man looked at it and came up with a workaround solution that involved cleverly applying a couple of plastic ties - and then refused payment! (I ended up buying an accessory I needed - but that was off my own bat as I was so impressed with the way he went about helping me out.) He also told me that for bike services, he will sometimes offer a lend of a replacement bike. Oh, and they currently accept credit and debit cards. Sorted!

A little further research and I have yet to find anyone with a bad word to say about this shop. I have been led to believe that the mechanic is first class but I have no experience in that side. Give them a shot.

I'm writing this review hours after I collected my bike from Bolton Cycles. Guys, I cannot praise…read moreyou enough for the great job you did on my ladies Fuji 2.1!!! A brief explanation: I left my bike locked outside for 4 nights in early December and someone messed it up, so I brought it in for repair to another bike shop (OK, I won't say where) on 11th Dec 2024. I was told they ordered the parts for me (a hanger). Not getting any phone call updates which I was supposed to get I rang them twice, once in early Jan and then on Tue 21st Jan. The order was on the way, to arrive at the end of the month/beginning of February. I've already been waiting close to 6 weeks!!!! and couldn't wait any longer. Pretty poor service. So I decided to bring the bike somewhere else. My friend recommended Bolton Cycles - and here's the beautiful story: I rang the owner at 12 noon Wed 22nd Jan and explained the situation. He said 'Bring it in, I'll have the part and fix it.' The guys had the bike ready for me the very next day!!! Not only did they replace the broken part but also repaired the brakes and tightened the rather loose chain which gave me trouble numerous times. BOLTON CYCLES, You have a life customer in me now!!! Best wishes, Maria

If you're reading this review, you're either in the market for a bike store who'll sort you out…read morewith a second hand bike, or you've come across Bolton Cycles before and want some opinions before you deal with them. Well, I've been a regular customer of Bolton Cycles for the last 5 years now, and would solidly recommend these blokes. I just recently got a second hand "GIANT" racer off of them, which was originally worth about 850 brand new and they gave it to me for 320, one year old but post-overhaul....and they let me trade in my previous bike which i had bought off of them and they knocked off 110 (a bit less than half of what i paid originally, but it was 4 years old)....so i was laughing! Also, I went back to them twice to tune up a few things on it, things that they probably should have charged for, and they didn't. If you're friendly to them and show customer loyalty, they will throw things in when they are making a sale and their prices for flat repairs, buckle repairs, brakes and gear jobs are all fairly decent. They also will sort you out with a 6 month guarantee, even on second hand bikes, so it's not a case of "buyer beware" like it would be if you tried to get a bike in that bike yard on Ryder's Row. Sure, it's not the nicest place to hang out, you can barely move around once you get inside because it is literally wall-to-wall bikes all over the gaff, but they make up for it with a decent service. (NOTE - they don't accept cards....get the cash from the Centra just 5 doors down).
