Cycling with Purpose – Supporting Young People in Our Community
At Gear Up Cycles, we’re not just about bikes – we’re about making a difference. As part of Worth Unlimited, a local youth work charity, we use cycling and bike mechanics to engage and mentor young people, helping them reach their full potential.
Every service you book with us goes directly towards funding mentoring sessions for vulnerable young people in our community. When you choose Gear Up Cycles, you’re not just getting expert bike servicing – you’re also supporting a cause that’s helping to change lives.
Your Ride, Their Future
By choosing Gear Up Cycles, you're investing in your bike and in the future of local youth. Whether you need a repair, a new bike, or simply want to support a good cause, your visit makes a real difference.
Expert Bike Repairs – Big or Small, We’ve Got You Covered
Whether it’s a quick puncture repair or a more complex issue like a bottom bracket replacement, Gear Up Cycles is here to keep you riding smoothly. Our team of Cytech Level 2 trained and approved mechanics brings you the perfect combination of expert knowledge and hands-on experience.
We understand how important your bike is to you, so we strive to get your bike back to you the same working day – wherever possible – so you can get back on the road without delay.
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
"The workshops enabled us to integrate our Central and Eastern European clients with others, which hadn’t always been possible in a classroom setting because of language barriers, so this was even more positive by providing a ‘hands on’ experience. All participants felt that taking part and seeing that they could reassemble bicycles improved their confidence and self-worth."

Had my husbands bike sorted out ready to ride again after a long lay off. Brilliant service and very reasonable price. The guys went over and above what was needed. Great work.
Anne - Customer
Always friendly and welcoming, there's never any job too big or too small at Gear Up. They have fixed my bike many times and the job is always done in very good time to a high standard no matter what state I've managed to get my bike into!
