I attempted to pick up and was told my bike was ready but arrived and it wasn’t finished with the safety check then I picked up the next day and they gave me the wrong bike which they corrected on the spot but if I hadn’t noticed, I would’ve walked away with the wrong bike. I also felt like the person who helped me didn’t care to set the bike to my height and fit it to me. When I was picking out my bike, one of the men helping was very knowledgeable. We had to wait a bit in order to find someone to help us because it was quite busy.

This store and its employer and employees are quite disappointing! It would be best for this establishment to be shut down for good. Absolutely shame behaviours!

Helpful staff in the Fulham store but items shown on the website as being in store for immediate collection were not in store and could not be found so had to go to Chiswick.
No nearby cycle locking hoops for customers to lock bikes up! Please have a word with the council to rectify!

The team were very polite and efficient on the repair of my bike and texted me within 24 hours to say that it was ready for collection. They also checked everything again before handing it over to me. I would definitely recommend Balfes Bilkes for all your repairs and servicing.
