WHEELBASE Ilkley, West Yorkshire

We are very pleased to announce that we have now opened the doors of WHEELBASE Yorkshire, 25 Skipton Road, Ilkley, West Yorkshire LS29 9EW.

With 25 years of experience at the forefront of cycle retail we will provide Yorkshire’s cycling community with an extensive selection of road, mountain, triathlon, electric and leisure bikes from all the top brands, as well as the best clothing and accessories.

The store is now fully stocked with an extensive range and some stunning showcase products, plus a large state of the art Park Tools workshop. 

Ilkley is very well situated at the gateway to the glorious Yorkshire Dales and within easy reach of Leeds, Bradford, Harrogate and west Lancashire – a true hotbed of cycling. We are very excited to have the opportunity to bring WHEELBASE to West Yorkshire.

“We will provide all of our customers with the very best products, friendly, knowledgeable staff and a great in store experience.” Christopher Herd, WHEELBASE Managing Director

We live and breathe bikes here at WHEELBASE and we have built up our independently owned business from our HQ in the Lake District with some of the UK’s best mountain and road riding right on our doorstep. We opened our second store WHEELBASE North East in 2016 and our expansion into Yorkshire is the result of an acquisition of the former Ilkley Cycles.

“We have set the bar high with our plans for WHEELBASE Yorkshire.”
Toby Dalton, WHEELBASE Director

 


Extensive range of e-bijes all under one roof

The staff are extremely helpful and friendly, I always get great service when I visit. Best bike shop in the UK!

Good service and price. Delivered on time and well packed.

Great service, quick postage, good communication.

Great staff. Steve was brilliant. Helped with sorting bike2work.

Can’t recommend James enough, he was mega patient with me whilst making my decision on a new bike, I was spending more than I ever have on a bike and he explained the pros and cons of each model. Further helped by fitting my cushcores and having the bike invisiframe protected and also took the time on collection to get the bike set up for me. Top service, even though I traveled from Scotland to buy my bike I would 100% come back for my next one.

Knowledgeable and helpful staff

Great choice of brands at competitive prices. Prompt delivery. Well done Wheelbase

Excellent brands, good pricing and prompt delivery. I had a minor query that was answered very quickly. Many thanks

No thank you

Very knowledgeable and very helpful. Nothing was a problem . Top lads

Wheelbase Ilkley has firmly become my preferred local bike shop. The team are not only highly knowledgeable, but also genuinely friendly, helpful, and patient — nothing ever feels like too much trouble. The workshop staff, in particular, really stand out. They understand that customers have a close relationship with their bikes (just as they do themselves), and they treat them with the same care and respect. Repairs and servicing are carried out efficiently to minimise downtime, and they always take the time to explain the work they’ve done. That level of transparency and education isn’t the norm, and it’s hugely appreciated. On the retail side, I’m more than happy to travel to the store and even pay a small premium over buying online because the service, expertise, and aftercare are genuinely superior. It’s rare to find a shop that delivers such consistently high standards across the board. — Richard (Cube Agree & Ribble Ti)

Great service from Wheelbase, ordered an Amflow PL carbon, received a curtesy call from the Ilkley store to arrange delivery, this gave me a chance to ask a few questions, they were very helpful and polite. Bike arrived quickly and was very well packaged, everything assembled super easily and everything worked perfectly thanks to the store pre assembly and checks by the professional mechanic. Highly recommended and would definitely buy from here again, many thanks!

Large selection of everything to do with cycling. Very helpful staff.

Very thorough service of my bike. Everything clearly explained. Good value. Will use again.

I recently purchased a Whyte ELyte from Wheelbase. They couldn’t have been more helpful with my enquiry and questions. Delivered the bike on the day requested which was very well packaged. I always enjoy dropping into their stores when I’m away riding.

Good service

I had an electric bike that had stopped working. I knew the motor and computer on the handle bar both worked fine as I could swap them over to another bike to check. Any way Liam managed to find the culprit ( wire misplaced in the controller). highly recommend !!!

The service at wheelbase is second to none, Got my new bike from here set everything up, very knowledgeable and friendly staff, couldn't do enough for me, highly recommended, thanks again lads my new go to bike shop

The efficiency of the staff and mechanics. They always have time to discuss a problem or offer advice. Work on your bike is always done on time. Very happy with the service I receive.

Number 1 like any business it’s only as good as the people! Great service from a great team especially Mik the Master Technical Guru in the workshop & Jonny the Super Sales Guy in the shop. All the guys are really great & really helpful these two just set the standard! Sell really nice products but to sustain the business needs to next level its digital offering!

Friendly, knowledgable staff

Very good approachable staff with very good knowledge of products along with excellent customer service

Generally have the items I want in stock

friendly service from Graham and good discount on the camelback!

Helpful well informed advice for choosing a road bicycle sourcing the required size specifications and colour. Complimentary “fitting” service with a few extras included.

Everything good, absolutely no downsides. Brilliant, friendly service from start to finish at my closest branch in Darlington, and also by e-mail to Wheelbase HQ at Stavely. I couldn't be happier.

Helpful and efficient with excellent offers

Picked up my new e- mountain bike yesterday. Cycling has changed a LOT since I last purchased a bike, and Max answered all my numerous questions and queries, as well setting up the bike for me. Great service, thank you.

Good selection and friendly, knowledgeable staff
