Hi,

Does anyone have any recommendations for somewhere I can get sound advice and good service for bike fit and set-up in the Gloucestershire / Worcestershire / Herefordshire area please?

Thanks in advance.

    Climb on bikes in Hereford will give excellent service although I don't think they have a jig, www.climbonbikes.co.uk or Epic cycles in Tenbury Wells (Bromyard) they definately have the jig bike to get you a perfect fit. Their website is www.epiccycles.co.uk

    Leisure lakes in Cheltenham have a jig.

    [:0] Bike fits are expensive! Just looked at two places in London that do it for œ100+!!! I'm not saying don't have one done, but you may consider (in the future) doing it yourself!

    A second vote for Echelon. Brilliant service and advice every time.

    I have never had good service at Climb on. Mastercraft are great, in an old fashioned way. I like Coombes too (for Hereford). Cycles Clement in Ledbury do a lovely range of Simoncini frames, and could get you a nice Italian custom frame in steel or alluminium for a good price. I would try them out. Plus Ledbury is pretty and less hassle than Hereford.

    Thanks for all the replies. I`m about 5 miles from Ledbury so may use that as the first port of call.

    Maybe you can have a look at the new frame DUAL T40. The Main-Tubes are doubled to increase the rigidity of the frame. The frame is available in Steel (15CDV6) and in stainless steel (HINOXTUBE). Some pics you can find in this blog:
