  • Bike service

    I've used trainSharp for coaching and bike maintenance for a while now. Recently I've used the workshop again after their new head person started. I have been impressed with the speed of service offered, the clarity of the work due to happen and the way I'm kept informed. Got the bike back and can't be happier, the turnaround on the work was so quick and the bike looks neat and rides so well now! Highly recommended and I wish I had booked the bike in sooner instead of struggling on. Top work from Dan, thank you

  • Bike repair

    Just wanted to share a quick shoutout to Trainsharp - these guys are seriously top notch with bikes! I’m a regular because Dan and the team are on another level. They spot issues before you even notice, handle warranties like total pros, and provide the absolute best service. Plus, if you’re into custom builds, they are experts at that too! My bikes have never been happier!
