Bike Servicing

At Alpine Bikes we have been caring for our customers’ bikes for over twenty five years and in that time have developed a reputation for excellence. Our services are based around the most common needs of our customers, and all work is undertaken only after a thorough inspection and confirmation of costs with the customer. Work is carried out by qualified, experienced mechanics to industry standards so you can ride in the knowledge your bike has been tuned to perfect working order.

For more information, contact or visit your local store and our friendly staff will be able to advise you.

  • Please contact your local Alpine Bikes store to arrange a convenient date for your service. Or, come into store with your bike and we will conduct a while-you-wait assessment, free of charge- you can then go on to book a service appropriate for you.
  • When you drop off your bike, please make sure it's in a reasonably clean state.
  • You will be contacted when the service is complete, the bike has been test ridden, and is ready for pick up.
  • All Service Packages are inclusive of labour only, and do not include the cost of parts.

The Bronze Service is like a checkup. We make sure everything is running properly and tune it up if necessary, inspect for damage, and point out anything that could cause an issue when riding. Depending on how much you use your bike, a service like this would be suitable every 3 - 6 months. If your bike has been in storage for a long time, or has been ridden a lot, you should consider a Silver or Gold service. A Bronze Service includes:

Your gears will be adjusted, and the brake calipers re-aligned if necessary. Your chain will be lubricated. A mechanic will safety check the complete bike from front to rear.
