Since then I've volunteered in the shop and gained invaluable knowledge from Ian, Peter and Gordon. I've also joined the guys on their social rides and got so much fitter with the help of Georgia. Kate and Fiona really know what they're doing here and they offer the full package for a cyclist. Now my review is a 5 star review with sprinkles on top!

Absolutely fantastic. I needed a part, the rear roller wheels, for my Brompton. They didn't have…read moreit in stock but had a slightly more expensive one, the rear rollers plus the roller for the fender. They offered to and did send me the more expensive part at no extra cost. It arrived in one day. Their prices are very good, they don't charge for shipping, and they ship unbelievably quickly. I haven't been there in person, but if they are as friendly and responsive in shop as they are by email it'd be worth the hour and a half train ride from where I am now.

I rented a well maintained premium hardtail 29er with a dropper post. The shop gave me great advice on where to go and I had a complete blast exploring all around Epping. There are some very nice cross country and downhill runs all around the forest. Most of the trails are under the forest canopy and it's just beautiful. Be sure to stop at the Kings Oak Hotel in High Beach for a beer in the forest!

I've found them really hand for new inner tubes, new tyres and they do a very reliable service. This where I prefer to take my bike when it needs fixing and I trust them to do a good job.

This is a handy little bike shop and workshop located, as you might expect, next to a bus stop. The…read moreshop is accessed by pressing a buzzer next to the door, which can seem a bit off-putting, and I have had difficulty getting someone to answer the door in the past, probably because the workshop is located out the back of the shop. However once you're in, the staff are friendly and helpful, and I think offers good value. The shop is quite small, and has all the essentials, but not much beyond that, so if you are looking for the latest Northwave jersey, you will need to try somewhere else. It is more of a functional shop catering to people who are using their bike to get places rather than purely for exercise or sport. They have a plentiful supply of florescent yellow plastic, which is most important for cycling on London's roads.

They are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I had a repair done at another shop and it never quite got sorted correctly. I found Stort Valley Cycle and they sorted it the first time and the gears have been smooth ever since! The last time I needed something done, I was in a huge time crunch and I was apologetic to the staff, but needed something down quickly before going out of town. They sorted the bike out quicker than expected and I had time to spare! Well done guys!!
