Reviews of Bool's Bicycles

A. J.

Great service and friendly staff. Following a small crash I needed my front disc brake fixed quickly. Tried many other bike shops with no luck and Bool's were the only shop willing to fit me in despite also being pretty much booked up for the next week or two. Really reasonably priced too so would highly recommend. I will certainly use them again.

S. B.

I've been to Bool's a couple of times now, the staff are friendly, knowledgeable and trustworthy. They are thorough and keep you informed of any work that needs doing as it progresses and are open about their prices. The work done has always been to a high standard - my headset has never felt so great! Highly recommend.

A first-rate independent bike shop offering affordable servicing and repairs with a speedy turn around time. The knowledgable team at Bool’s also stock Ridgeback cycles for sale, universal and brand specific bike parts, and probably every accessory you could want or need from your local bike shop. On the off chance they don’t have it, they’ll get it for you and install it. They also offer restoration services for classic bicycles. But possibly what Bool’s do best—aside from meticulously fixing bikes—is the care they extend to their customers. Whatever your cycling experience or technical understanding, the friendly team at Bool’s speak to you on your level. They’re always happy to offer advice and answer questions. And despite how busy they are with mending the bikes in the workshop, they still manage to find the time to make you feel looked after too. A fantastic local resource.

I came off the cycle track when one of my children’s bikes had a puncture and my puncture repair glue had dried up and my pump stopped working!!!! And Bools were so so helpful, changing the inner tube for me, also doing a few other jobs on my sons bike. I felt in a complete flap but their service was amazing, making me feel confident to get back on the track again. Thank you so very very much.

H. V.

So pleased with the service I received - it's like riding a brand new bike! So smooth, always super helpful and considerate checking in about pricing etc. 10/10 would recommend!

M. U.

So helpful in my hour of need. My hire bike chain got damaged on a sponsored cycle challenge. They not only fixed it so I could complete my ride but recommended countless other faults with the bike. Hire company refunded the cost of the repairs.

I booked my Carrera kraken in for a service for the 14th and was ready by the end of the same day, it needed more than i thought done to it. Was done to a very high standard at a reasonable price. Very professional service, Highly recommended.

C. D.

Popped in to ask about finding a bolt that isn't sold individually. They found one in a box of spare parts and gave it to me for free. I offered to pay and they said to just donate some money to charity. I would highly recommend Bool's! I know I'll be back for sure

A. J.

Stellar service!!! My electric bike was a wreck. My brakes no longer worked properly and were making a cringy hissing noise. I already planned on buying a new bike as I did not believe my bike could be repaired. Well I was wrong, they cleaned up my bike, inflated the tyres, the brakes are now fixed, no embarrassing cringy noise when stopping, my electric bike seems to be going faster, the battery lasting longer, it’s like having a brand new bike. I’m delighted to be riding my bike to work again. I went to their shop to thank them of their great work. My word of advise is don’t do the work yourself thinking you can fix your bike, get the professionals to do it. Thank you Bools Bicycles.

S. C.

Really helpful. After a long overdue bike service it feels brand new again! Felt honestly and fairly priced.

K. M.

Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff and quick, honest service, will definitely use again

M. R.

Been a few times and never had any issues. They're very good value for money, very quick, and just really helpful overall.

H. S. D.

100% recommend, taken my buggy there a couple of times so helpful and sorted the tires for me! Thank you

J. B.

Great bike shop, gave a good service for a very reasonable price with a quick turnaround. Staff friendly and knowledgeable, will be sure to use again

C. S. (.

Good service, knowledgeable, affordable. They installed my Swytch kit, a new bell, new lights and brake pads, all for £92. 😁

S. M.

Very helpful and knowledgeable about all aspects of bicycle maintenance and repair.

j. b.

Really good service and great advice. Great value. I was servicing my daughter's and my bike and they showed genuine enthusiasm and support for her learning to ride. Thanks very much.

A. N.

Great little shop. Staff are friendly and informative!

H. W.

Just phoned up for a quick check to see if they had a cheap bike pump, excellent service on the phone, really helpful! Popped on down and had great service and some free advice. Will definitely make this my local bike shop as I'm back on 2 wheels. Great independent shop with great staff and a good range of products from more budget friendly to more professional bits of kit. Perfect first experience as a customer, enough that I felt the least I could do is leave a review. Thanks Bool's!

P. H.

Turned up with a puncture and was told that they would be able to do it while I wait. Excellent service, very polite and professional. Would definitely recommend. Appreciate the puncture being dealt with so quickly.

L. N.

Highly recommended. Friendly, highly skilled staff who are happy to help.

L. C.

Took my bike in as my gears were misaligned. They were great, got it done very fast, really reasonable price, they also sorted my gears as they noticed they were off balance. Definitely recommend!

J. G.

Called in on way back from a ride to ask if they could sort out indexing on gears. Very helpful. Gave it a tweak straight away and booked in for a proper look the following week. I was all ready to spend money replacing what I thought were worn out parts parts but Daniel said no need and got it running perfectly with what I had.

Z. N. B. U. A.

Thanks for fixing it quickly! Much appreciated!

j. t.

Thanks for keeping all our tandems on the straight and narrow. Thoroughly recommend Dan and his team for their expert bike servicing and knowledge.

J. H.

Amazing service once again - booked in 2 bikes - both done within a day. Really happy with work done and with price paid - can’t recommend highly enough. Thanks very much Bools - top job.

w. p.

Sorted out all the bikes so the family could get out and enjoy the sunshine. Highly recommend

S. W.

Both my husband and myself had our bikes serviced today. Both men were very helpful.Great customer service, very friendly, great value for money and took his time to ensure i had a helmet that fitted correctly. I will definitely be using them in the future 😎👍Thank you

J.

Great local bike shop. I took in a simple spoke repair and they went above and beyond to clean all the brake residue off my wheel to ensure my bike was safe. They didn't charge for this added service. Bool's clearly take pride in their work and I will be coming back whenever my bike needs work.

S. U.

Rang yesterday to book a service as my gears were slipping. They were able to book me in the very next day, which was great! I mentioned a few things I thought might need doing - new wheels? new chain? They could really have gone to town with expensive and unecessary work and I'd have been none the wiser. Instead they were full of honest advice and let me know as soon as everything was ready. My service was really resonably priced (£26 including bearings, gear re-set and front brake tightening) and now my bike is running really smoothly. Everyone I spoke to has been lovely. Will definitely be back. Thanks!

T. R.

Fantastic service! Dropped by with a flat tyre and they fixed it on the spot within 5 minutes, very reasonable price too. Will definitely be using again.

J. N.

Dan and his crew are a great bunch. Myself, friends and family have always had excellent, honest and expert advice. Whether its buying entry level hybrids to sourcing rare tandem parts - Bools bikes knows its stuff!

C. C.

Changed my flat tyre quick and easily. Thanks 🙃

P. C.

Saved front derailleur from needing replacement by addition of a back nut. Replaced worn gear cable and chain, and fixed slow rear puncture. Bools were quick to carryout the work and provided value for money in line with what they estimated. Happy to do as much or as little as you request and they offer advice on what else may be worth checking or not doing. No hard sales or overestimating required work. Very knowledgeable on maintenance issues. Would highly recommend.

D. P.

Knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable prices

I. H.

We wont use any other cycle repair shop due to having poor standard repairs and servicing done with other businesses. With Bools we get a cracking and trusting service which gives peace of mind. Bools was recommended to us and we would recommend them to anyone that wants to care for thier bike.

C. H.

Very friendly, very helpful and a very reasonable price! I took my bike in as the gears kept skipping and the chain was rubbing against the derailleur. I dropped the bike off at 9am and by 10.30am it was sorted. I went to pick the bike up and Phil explained to me exactly what was wrong with it and how he had fixed it, he also showed me a part of how the bikes gears worked as well. I cannot recommend highly enough.

A. B.

Had 2 new inner tubes fitted and bought some LED LIGHTS BARGAIN AT £29 ALL IN AND VERY FRIENDLY STAFF. HIGHLY RECOMENDED

J. P.

Excellent friendly service. I had a gear cable snap on my 25 yr old mountain bike, and got them to look at my brakes too. All done quickly and professionally for reasonable rates, even cleaned and oiled the chain, brakes now brake and gear change is in perfect alignment, saved me a heap of bother and time. Thanks guys!!!!

A. H.

Everything you want in a local bike shop. Took my somewhat neglected bike in for a minor repair and a much needed service. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and very pragmatic when it came to recommendations as to what did or didn't need work. Extremely reasonably priced, I couldn't be happier.

S. C.

Always so helpful. Great advice and high quality service. Thoroughly recommend.

M. T.

I would 100% recommend this place the staff here are really friendly and can't do enough for you they really know the business and are very happy to help you out. Great work I will 100% use this place again I am very happy with the work carried out on my bike this is a gem of a place😊

S. C.

Called in here this morning when I lost a bolt from my cleat & couldn't detach my shoe from my SPD pedal. The guys were really friendly & helpful and rescued my shoe for me. They would've replaced the bolt for me but were out of stock. But they rescued me from a sticky situation - thanks!

D. C.

Whenever I get stuck with repairs and need specialist tools or advice I've popped into Bool's. Every time they've stopped their jobs to help me and solved my issues, then charged me very fairly considering the time and effort they've saved me. I would 100% recommend.

P.

Very hard working two-man passion project. Bristol bikes are kept going through the drive and dedication of people like this. It's a small shop, a busy shop with no easy parking, but these guys are very good.

T. H.

I often find in bike shops that they have an air of snootiness against those who don’t know much about bikes. This place is nothing like that. They are friendly and down to earth. The service was good too.

R. P.

Outstanding service,my wife had her bike serviced aswell recently,I would highly recommend anyone going to Bool's,what a difference in my bike now,thanks guys

T. B.

I had a very positive experience at Bool's Bicyles they were very friendly, serviced my bike quickly and for a very good price. I will definately use them again - great job chaps.

L. S.

Hugely impressed by this team. Incredibly friendly and helpful. As someone who knows very little about bikes they were refreshingly non-condescending and efficient. Would highly recommend.

L.

My local bike shop. A smaller store than doesn't rip you off eg. Halfords, Specialized (quoted me £90 for a job Bools did for 40 incl labour) Classy, fast service. Fair prices. I would rather support this store even if its out of the way!

Y. S.

Great local bike shop. Friendly non-patronising staff giving good honest advise. Repair costs are very reasonable and transparent. Recommended.

g. M.

Friendly, helpful guy who took my bike in the morning and repaired by the afternoon. Kept the cost at low as possible too. Would definitely use again.

K. K.

Super helpful guys who explained everything they had done in clear detail. Very happy with the service.

Had a scratch on my tire, they super quickly replaced my tire with a really nice price!

R. “. C.

Not a bad bike shop. Extra star as they leave a bike pump outside. Good idea.
