Great discount on bike from original price. Very helpful staff on phone, made process as smooth as possible.

Good price. Quick delivery.

Really excellent communication and work completed in a good time on the same day as drop off. The Wheelbase technicians had undertook research before my arrival and knew what was required to replace the uncommon hardware and software of the Fazua drive system fitted to my bike. This was reassuring and indicated that a high level of professionalism was being used to ensure a good outcome. The cost was as expected and I believe was very fair for such a good service. The only difficulty on the day was parking uncertainty and the 50 mins travel time to Wheelbase. Whilst my light weight road bike fitted in my car I would not be able to carry anything larger and unfortunately this limits the bikes I could take to Wheelbase. If Wheelbase had a weekly collection and drop off service for say £10 to £20 that would be a great option.

You kept in contact the whole time. Emailed back same day if I had any queries. Nice and polite.

Knowledgable team with a great range of bikes. Price was good for our Trek Rail 5. Aftersales was excellent too.

Not purchased my e-bike from Wheelbase however they have serviced it for the last few years. This time my mudguards were sorted out which. Have always bugged me, they just didn’t fit correctly, new brackets supplied & fitted as well as the back pannier rack that had a nasty rattle. Didn’t ask for this but they fixed it which was excellent work imho. Updated the software & reset the gears. Iit does seem to ride a lot nicer. £59 well spent 👍

All the staff are so helpful from buying a flap Jack bar to a Bike 🚲 wheels or kit you need I can highly recommend Wheel base 5 ⭐ treatment Much appreciated Glenn

Very helpful staff both online and in store

Very attentive & knowledgable staff.

I ordered a bike from the Kendal branch and collected it from Darlington. Wheelbase were very quick dealing with the request and kept me up to date through the process. The staff at Darlington were also helpful on collection.

Very prompt chain replacement, excellent service

Good range and reasonable prices. I live near the Darlington store so I know I can get help when I need to.

Price Parts Friendly Workmanship

Staff were very helpful and friendly. After servicing my bike, I was given a detailed explanation of what had been done.
