The Ride Cycles

Got a Specialized Epic over the weekend and am really happy. The staff all spent time getting me fitted properly for the bike and provided me with the advice I needed. Go and meet the team and get a great deal. I know I did!

I’ve been a customer of The Ride Cycles for a number of years now and have always found Aaron and the staff to be absolutely fantastic. Not only do they know their stuff, they’re a great friendly crew who you can trust to service any of your cycling needs, be it mountain, road, cyclocross or anything in between.
Case in point: After not having had a bike fit for a number of years and having a few things that niggled me on the bike, I booked in to have a BG Fit with Aaron a couple of weeks ago. I can categorically say this is the best thing I’ve ever done for my cycling. Whilst there’s lots you can do to your bike to make you faster, there’s nothing like a good fit to get you loving the bike.
I spent a relatively intense two hours being poked, prodded and bent into shape, but after a few small changes, immediately noticed a difference. The litmus test was out on the road, however. I’ve just returned from 4 months overseas, where I didn’t touch the bike. After my BG Fit, I went for two 135km rides, one in the hills with 2,500m of climbing, and one along Beach Road to build some base kilometres.
No more numbness in my hands, no more sore elbows or shoulders, no more sore lower back, no numb feet, no more knee pain. If that isn’t a good enough reason to visit Aaron and get a fit, I can’t think of anything else. Thanks for a great experience, mate, and for permanently changing my riding for the better!

Aaron and the guys at The Ride Cycles did a great job setting up my rig. They went out of their way to accommodate my weird wish for orange cable outer (don’t judge me! Haha) and I would highly recommend the shop for anything from a kids bike to anything mtb or road related. I travel quite far to use their services, as a “rider owned shop” is in my mind far better than some link in a franchise chain.

Always had great service. No hesitation in recommending this bike shop

Aaron and the team are awesome. Always helpful and willing to go the extra mile or answer any one of my oddball questions about some build I’m doing. Keep it up guys.
