I came in to choose a bike to be bought on a scheme at work. I’d done a bit of research beforehand, so I had a good idea what I wanted, and the staff were very helpful. They didn’t have the bike I wanted in the right size, and offered to build one for me to try the next day. When I arrived the next day, a few wires must’ve gotten crossed, and there wasn’t a bike in the right size, but they put it right immediately, and put the bike together in half an hour while I nipped down the road for a coffee. After a quick test ride(which they let me take the bike down the road to do, without breathing down my neck), I decided to take the bike, and it’s *awesome*. To top it off, they provide complimentary services at one and four months to make sure things are still running smoothly, and the staff really seem to know their stuff — none of your clueless chain bike shop employees here! I’ll definitely be back again.

The staff here are so rude. Every time I’ve been in(young mother with my toddler) either to buy something or for a repair, they really could not care less about certain of their customers. I got told off today for not calling ahead about getting a puncture repaired. Who ever wants to get told off in an interaction with a business?! This after I carried my bike AND child into the shop and got no help. Then when I went back at the time they asked, it wasn’t ready, and the second time — again, of their choice — it still wasn’t ready! Waste of time and energy, am going to go to Reg Taylor’s from now on(where they are lovely).

Really Great Shop. I went in with a collegue to pick up his bike. The Guys are very knowledgeable, helpful and polite even when they are superbusy. Happy to suggest a cheaper option and immediately adjusted the price when something was incorrectly labelled. On the ball. Will be going back to get my bike there, when I have some money ;o)

Went here to try a bike I was thinking about buying. Had to wait a while for someone to see me and when I told them which bike he took 3 wrong bikes down before finding the right one! Doesn’t exactly inspire confidence!

Have had friendly and helpful service here. There workmanship has been of the highest quality for repairs, and they have been helpful in dealing with my insurance company after damage and theft. Prices for bikes and parts are as low as anywhere, and they have a good range of low to high end bikes. They do not sell many very cheap student-type bikes, but DONOT go to the nearby cycle king under any circumstances. They once told me you didn’t really need the front brake(after it failed on day 1).

One of a number of bicycle shops on Cowley Road, Beeline have a quality range of bicycles(compared to some of their competitors), though their prices are reflective of this. The staff are very helpful and look to give advice where possible. Their range is quite small, however, so it may be worth looking around.

This shop contains a wide variety of bikes, bike related components and clothing. It is nice to browse around, however if it busy, which it quite often is, you may have a wait to speak to someone. That said the staff are always helpful and knowledgeable.

Thank goodness for a slightly more specialist bike shop in Oxford. This has got some decent road and mountain bikes for those who like to escape the town centre every now and again. The staff know what they’re talking about and prices, whilst not as cheap as some bigger chains, are not unreasonable. There’s also a fair selection of cheaper bikes. Less range than Cycle King, but the places just seems to be better quality and you get the feeling that the exact same bike from here would last twice as long. You can test ride bikes without feeling overly observed and the staff take the time to help you choose according to your needs and your budget.
