So you really make people happy by making their bicycles perfectly roadworthy. You do this by correcting minor mistakes on the bike, such as adjusting brakes, tensioning gear cables and aligning wheels. They are new bikes so it is not about major repairs but the bikes come a long way and always need some attention after their journey. The best of them team have a change to make internal steps towards our workshop. Our local workshop offers a wide variety of repairs for all our customers throughout the Netherlands.
