Bike shop recommendation near Swindon

[Pulse]

Can anyone recommend a place with a very good reputation to get my bike checked out?

I just received my mail-order bike, and it arrived damaged (mech hanger bent), and the shop have agreed to pay for the bike to be checked at a local shop, to check:

- Bike all over for transit damage / particularly the frame
- Check the forks (they seem to be sticky? Fox 34s)
- Fit new hanger and align gears if necessary
- Bleed the brakes (arrived soft)

I’ve had Slam69 recommended in Gloucester, but that may be a bit of a trek. Thanks in advance!

Try Swindon Cycles on Beechcroft Road or Mitchell’s behind the county ground. If you’re near Wotton Bassett give Shane at Bassett Bikes a shout

Ridgeway Cycles in Wantage if you are that side of swindon. It's a nice ride past the uffington white horse too! Once fixed...
