What our clients say

As a resource and training school the Bike Inn is first class. Apart from the two hands-on periods in the workshop (where there’s a lively exchange of problems encountered in the real world,) the on-line sessions, both recorded and the real-time drop-ins are invaluable. Those provide even the novice with the necessary basics so that everyone is prepared for the Workshop.

The Cyclists’ National Helpline (Cycle-SOS)

Outstanding training. The support provided throughout the course is excellent, materials are comprehensive and thorough… Jon, Henrietta and Mark put together a great team for delivering the training. I’ve come away having made some really good connections within the trade and look forward to continuing the relationship.

Matthew Cleathero

Excellent bike mechanic training, catering for both novices and those with a little more experience. Great facilities and hands on use of the full range of cycle workshop tools. Gives trainees the confidence to move up and tackle more difficult repairs… A friendly and helpful team who are ready and willing to pass on their extensive knowledge of bikes and cycling.
Highly recommended.
