Our Services
How it works
The Bike Van works on all types of bicycles; road, MTB, commuters, hybrids, E-bikes, kids bikes & more.
We'll come to your place of choice whether it be at home, work or somewhere else. We'll look over your bike and give you a quote for the service, including any parts that need to be replaced.
We carry a range of spare & replacement parts and aim to service your bike there and then in the next couple of hours!
Needs lots of work? Or parts need to be ordered? No worries. We'll store your bike at our workshop & drop it back to you when ready. You'll be given an estimated time for completion. Usually 1-7 days.
Service prices include pickup and drop off to the area pictured below. For smaller jobs and emergency repairs/call outs we do require a minimum spend of $50 to make the trip economical.
