BIKE REPAIR MENU IN WEST LOTHIAN
In addition to our wide array of guided activities as Uncharted Adventures, we are now offering cycle repair and servicing in the West Lothian area. Based in the village of Winchburgh near to Broxburn, Uphall, South Queensferry, Kirkliston and Linlithgow, we operate from a small purpose designed workshop in the village and can handle bike servicing and most common bicycle repairs.
Common repair WORK
Where repair work is undertaken, no other components will be checked unless directly related to the repair. Below is a list of common repairs and the typical labour charges associated with it. Note; neglected bikes or ones that have had a harder than average life may have additional labour such as a result of stuck parts which may not become apparent until working on the bike, but we will do our best to keep it reasonable and keep you informed before you incur significant additional charges. Unless indicated, parts will be extra. If you have lots of potential issues or the bike hasn't received any attention in while a Silver or Gold service may be the way to go.
If the repair you need is not listed, or you don't know your dropper post from your headset? No problem, just let us know what issues you are having and we can advise further.

Typically it is low value consumable items, like cables and brake pad replacements, that are the common additional costs.
