Not too good for buying mountain bikes, but OK for lots of other things…read more I've been into The Bike Shop on Crossgates Road quite a few times over the last few weeks as I have been in the process of buying bikes for myself and my fiance. It's great for the casual cyclist. However, and it's quite a big however, they don't have that much choice of manufactures and they don't have a lot of bikes out on display. For example, they only had Specialized women's bikes built up and in the store. Their other relatively high-end manufacturer is Kona and they have some pricing issues at the moment as most people will be aware. On the plus side, the staff are extremely helpful, and they have a very good selection of kids bikes, BMX and commuter cycles. Although we bought our bikes elsewhere, we did go back to this store to purchase a car rack and a fair few other accessories and they were really helpful showing me how to set the bike rack up on my car.

We needed 2 mountain bikes for teenagers for xmas. We looked at Halfords and toys r us but soon…read morerealised their bikes were not going to last, being built with poor quality parts. So we looked at lots of specialsed bike shops that were really out of our price range. We thought Evans are a big company we will get the range we need. They had 2 bikes in the store to suit our price range but the staff were worse than disinterested. We couldn't pry the information we needed out of the member of staff. We went back on the internet and found the Bike Shop on Crossgates Road, Leeds. What an amazing experience! A massive range of quality bikes. The staff are so helpful and can't do enough for you. I can highly recommend The Bike Shop, we need 2 more bikes next year and will definitely be going back. A VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER

When i asked them to elaborate they said he is more interested in gossiping outside rather than showing any interest in his customers. As i alluded to earlier he does offer a fair price but theres not much to compare him too and when i sent my nephews bike in he actually took nearly a week to replace 2 wheels, not sure if him locking up earlier than he advertises has anything to do with it. He does do sales but basically he will just show you a catalogue and he orders it in. I have to say that his prices are reasonable on sales also, i paid £200 for 3 kids bikes which is not bad. All in all not a bad place but think it could be better, in particular the service. A bit of competition is what is needed i think.

It's all about the bike!! The Cycle Hub is the perfect quayside meeting point or pit stop for…read morecyclists or walkers. I've been here a few times, particularly in the summer due to the outdoor seating area offering a fab view of Newcastle Quayside. The Hub offers bike hire and repair facilities as well as providing fortnightly social bike rides! What draws me in is the fab little cafe as I'm a sucker for homemade cakes (yesterday's choice being the caramel shortbread)! Always served by friendly faces and although the service can be a little slow in peak times, it is worth the wait!

The chapters gather more heavily on the weekends. The cafe inside has a great selection of food and drinks! Sodas, waters, juices and even BEER! I had the "famous" bacon sandwich... Skeptical as always when people call something famous. It was really nice. Lovely fresh bread! The bacon came from a pig with a nice personality. I'm curious about the other food they offer. Will return.

They used to be located in Headingley in Leeds, which meant easy access at lunchtime for me (and…read morelots of impulse purchases!). Now they've moved to Summerbridge near Harrogate, which is about a 45 minute drive from Leeds. This has pros- such as the fact that there is now room in the store for more than a hand full of bikes. And cons - the fact that it's miles from anywhere. Still a really excellent place to buy bikes, components and other mountain biking kit - they stock some top brands including Santa Cruz, Niner, Orange, Scott, Trek and Ibis and they have a lot of built up bikes in the store, which is pretty unusual for someone that stocks so much top-end equipment. The only place that compares is North West Mountain bike centre, but that's in Cheshire and it's not as easy to find stuff in that store as it's split across a few rooms, a bit like Stif used to be before it moved. If you've got the time and transportation or you're in the the area for some other reason - there is a lot of riding out near Patley Bridge so that's a good reason in itself - then go and have a look.

Excellent service and sell great products. I am more than happy with my Santa Cruz from them. They…read morewas really helpful when I asked them about products and what was best for me. They also keep you up to date when they expect your bike to be ready.
