I had a borrowed bike with a flat and no tools to change it. I dropped the bike off in the morning and the gentlemen at Two Wheels Good got me back up and running quickly. I will see them for any future bike maintenance. Great service and very nice people. Thank you! read more

I love Two Wheels Good and have been a loyal customer for the past 12 years that I've lived nearby - the staff are so friendly, helpful and flexible, it's always a pleasure to go in there. It's easy to book a repair or service and they text you an update when your bike is ready to collect. I appreciate having such a reliable service nearby as I am so dependant on my bike! Thanks to all of you who work hard to keep our bikes working safely, Martha Clark (Blue Trek bike) read more

It's 4.5 stars actually (since no one gets 5....right?). I used to patronise a nearby E London Bike S**** shop (it rhymes with Crack) but just recently something bad has happened there & whatever it is impacted in a v negative way on customer service. They basically shone me on for 3 weeks telling me the work on my bike would be done this thursday - next thursday, blah blah blah. Out of loyalty to the really cool guy that USED to be at the shop I hung on but eventually, in frustration, I took my bike back off them (that's a 1st for me). I tootled off to these brilliant guys. The work plus a complete service done to a high standard took 4 hours - yes you read correctly, I had my trusty bike back the same afternoon. Let's examine that equation for a moment: 3.5 weeks/NO work done vs 4hours /GREAT work done + prompt communication = no contest. read more

Following my comment on Ms_Bling's review, this bike shop has been around for quite a while, at least 6 years, when I first moved to Stokey. It isn't cluttered now - admittedly it's a small shop and they want a reasonable amount of stock on display, but you can still wheel a couple of bikes in there for them to have a look at. I've popped in a few times but never made a major purchase or had a service. I've always found the staff really helpful, one took the time to demonstrate how to properly change your rear inner tube as I kept getting punctures. The only bad thing I have to say is there collection of clothes, or lack off. I went in there at the start of winter to buy some tights and they just said that they don't do them. read more

The people in here are so friendly. I went in to get a broken mud guard looked and, and to replace a back light. The staff helped me being in the bike and had a good look at it. After breaking my heart with writing off the bike as a death trap waiting to happen, he cheerfully sold me a back light. It was a bit like having a kindly grandfather tell you off. There's a good variety of stuff, which is good quality but also a little pricey. Its an independent bike shop as well, which I prefer over the larger chains. The staff are very knowledgeable about the bikes in the shop, and will be able to advise you better than most chains as well. read more

Hoorah! Finally, we have a bike shop on Stoke Newington Church Street! I've waited for this much-needed local resource for so many years. It's just typical that it arrived just when I hung up by bicycle clips and my old bike seems past repairing and past saving any more. Still, it's my New Year resolution to get back on a bike this year, which might mean investing in a new set of wheels. So I'll definitely be popping in here in the near future to check out their stock. Past encounters have proved disappointing so far, with unattentive and disinterested staff (maybe they were shy?), and a shop so cluttered and crowded you couldn't get near anything to have a good look at it. But I'll give them another chance. They are my local bike shop after all, and I've waited long enough for one of those! read more

I had a terrible experience at this bike shop. Someone tried to steal my bike and warped my back wheel in the process. When I went into the shop the guy working there accused me of buying a stolen bike and essentially blamed me for my near bike theft by leaving my bike securely locked outside my building overnight. He gave me a two day turnaround time for my bike to be ready and said I would get a phone call. I didn't get a call so I went into the shop to pick it up, and found out that the new wheel hadn't even been ordered yet. The owner apologised and ordered it and said it would be ready in another two days and when I went to pick it up in the morning, the same guy who was beyond rude to me when I dropped it off was 10 minutes late to open the shop, making me late for work in the process. That said, the repairs and replacement wheel, tyre and tube were done well, but the service was awful. Should've pushed by broken bike to PUSH cycles, lesson learned. read more

Two Wheels Good is exactly what a local bike shop should be. Friendly, helpful and thoroughly professional. I would heartily recommend them.

two wheels bad.... I would just like to start by saying this is probably a very good place to buy a new bike or if you own an expensive bike and need a service that is if you don't mind the service you get. I took in a vintage frame in which needed a good sorting out and rather than getting some sound advice on what needed to be done i basically got my head chewed off by a grumpy old bike geek. He seemed to take a slightly twisted pleasure in firstly telling me my bike was not only in a 'appaulling' condition it was also 'utterly dreadful' then proceeded to shred every detail that needed to be replaced before practically showing me the door. Kindly grandfather wasn't the image that sprang to mind, rather closer in resemblance to alf garnett meets the dead parrot sketch. Anyhow if you need a bike fixing in the area go to see john at the water tower on green lanes, far more accommodating and also probably better value. read more

£176 and still a broken bike First of all I'd say AVOID THIS SHOP and go to Daycock's in Dalston. The guys in two wheels good will rip you off and treat you badly. I paid them £176 to fix what I later discovered was a broken freehub. They changed the whole drive chain mechanism, telling me this was the problem. I picked it up, realised the problem was exactly the same. Took it back. No refund for the parts (I didn't need) was offered. Instead he offered to fix the freehub for free, and if it was broken, he'd charge me £50 for a new wheel. I asked him a few times for a better deal, claiming I was being treated unfairly. In the end he told me to leave with my bike. I couldn't believe the lack of care they showed at having done such an appalling job, with no offer of some refund. Went to Daycocks, they changed the freehub, cost me £25. Bike works fine. Joe Wensley read more

I didn't want to give this shop a bad review because they seem like really nice guys, but I've just had too many bad experiences and wanted to save other people the hassle. I've been here a few times because it's the nearest shop to my house but I won't be going again - it's not worth it. Got a puncture on the way to work and took it in. The guy put in a new inner tube in the front wheel and also pumped up the back tyre because he said it looked a bit flat. Rode away and 5 mins later my back tyre exploded loudly. Took it back and paid for a new back tyre. Rode off and about 5 miles later I was nearly at work when the front tyre went again! By now more than £40 down and on my third flat tyre (and late for work) I called up Two Wheels Good who said if I brought it back in they'd sort it for free. Fair enough, so I took it back to Stokey on the train after work. Next day when I took it into TWG I decided I might as well get a new front tyre as well, as the old one was pretty worn. The guy said he'd also "straightened" my wheel for me when he changed the tyre. Again rode off with my two new tyres, and again was a mile from work going down a hill in busy traffic at some speed when the new front tyre popped off. Fortunately I was able to brake safely and pull over. Wheeled it into Evans where the very helpful guy pointed out that (a) the tyre TWG had put on was defective and (b) whoever had attempted to straighten my wheel had actually bent it. He kindly straightened out the wheel as best he could and fitted a new tyre without charging for labour - the tyre has been totally fine ever since. To be fair to TWG they were really apologetic and happily refunded the front tyre cost. But that doesn't make up for being unable to competently change a tyre or repair a puncture. Doesn't seem like a one-off either - apart from my experience, I was getting my money back another customer came in to complain that they fixed a puncture that had gone down again straight away. Probably should add that previously I took in a bike I'd crashed for them to look over and they called me to say it was totally fine and ready to ride away. It was in fact totally unrideable due to the frame being bent out of shape - they obviously hadn't even looked at it for more than 2 mins or it would have been obvious. In conclusion: lovely chaps, shame about the bike-fixing skills. read more

Hi, Reviews are important and I felt the service was snobbish and aloof. I have bought a bike for my five year old and one of the brake pads fell off. Fair enough... not a good start. But having bought the Raleigh bike on the Internet and had a (different) bike shop put it together I popped in to Two Wheels Good to have a new brake pad put on. I was told they would not work on this sort of bike as they are rubbish. He felt he would be accountable for fixing a poorly made bike. Proceeded to tell me how the real "crooks" are those selling bikes on the Internet and not paying overheads for a shop. 1. I paid £150 for this bike. Raleigh are decent enough product. It was put together by a professional under warranty. 2. I could not be bothered to go to the other shop which was an inconvenient trip. My choice. 3. What is the big deal of just taking my money and fixing my bike? I was passing by. 4. When I asked him what specifically was so rubbish about the bike he said that "in fairness it wasn't the worst I have seen" and left it at that. Not the sort of service I like. Hope it improves. Might have caught him on a off day. Naomi read more

Charged 20 quid to remove bottom bracket - a five quid job. Left a wheel set with them with strict instructions to have a look but contact me if they needed a service. They half serviced the wheels, told me I needed a new hub, and tried to charge me 60 quid. I opened up the hubs myself, found them filthy but otherwise operational - clearly they didn't even try to clean and grease them before labelling them hopeless. Bad service, bad advice, a triumph of mediocrity. read more

Had a flat tire travelling home from work in the evening, i popped in at 8.30am next morning and the guy fitted me a new one in less than 10mins and I got into work on time. The guy working there was really nice too, great service! read more

Very friendly and well informed, they gave clear advice to my options for a refurbishment of my old beaten up road bike or options of buying a second hand bike or brand new bike. Very quick service, and got a great deal. I'd definitely recommend them to others. read more

Decent selection of cycling accessories, and they'll fix your bike if you have a problem like a puncture, although I found the prices higher than others in the area. However I was disappointed when I tried to take it in for a light service. The guy basically told me there was no point riding my bike unless I was going to replace a million different parts and pay for a major service. I was trying to get a quote out of him for a less complete service that didn't involve taking my bike apart and paying £120, but I couldn't. He was generally quite disparaging about different parts of my bike like the tires and my basket, which even if it's true in the grand scheme of bicycles, there are nicer ways of saying it. My bike isn't fancy, but it's pretty solid, only a year old, rides well, so I don't think all the replacements he was suggesting were strictly necessary. I didn't like this aggressive upsell. Another bike shop was happy to just replace my brake pads and make sure the brakes, bolts etc are safe to ride, which is all I wanted and all my budget would allow. read more
