Click and (wait and) collect
I bought a nice saddle at a nice price with click and collect. "Ready in 3 days" the confirmation email said. I've had delays with Balfes before so gave it 5. No sign of it then. I asked the shop staff to text me when it was ready. Another 5 days on, I got the SMS. Please Balfes, change your standard email and get the shop to message your customers when their order arrives. And please make it less than 10 days. Posting it would have been much quicker. Can't fault the staff in the Sutton store though. Always helpful and polite, despite the disappointing logistics set up they're having to work with on click and collect

Bike service provided by Balfe’s
Fantastic experience at Balfe's Bike today! The team provided exceptional service, going above and beyond to get my bike in top shape. They fine-tuned the gears, adjusted the brakes, and replaced the seat with ease. What really impressed me was their friendly and helpful approach, they made the whole process stress-free and enjoyable. And the cherry on top? They offered to revisit any issues that might arise and didn’t charge a thing! Top-notch customer service and expertise. Highly recommend Balfe's Bike Sutton to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy bike maintenance. I'd give them ten stars if I could! 😊🚴♂️👍"

Fantastic service
I was served by Kieron who was fantastic. He knew everything there was to know about my bike and assisted me in selecting the right helmet and lock. He is clearly very passionate about his work and I’m very grateful for the time he spent with me.

Friendly local bike shop… just wished the gear indexing had been sorted.
Friendly and professional staff. Fixed some new handlebar tape, new rear tubeless tyre and most importantly my 34 granny gear and all just in time for a big ride around the Peak District. Unfortunately this wasn’t indexed properly so I didn’t have access to the 34 on my 18% climb up Winnats Pass! I’ve since tweaked this…

Fantastic Customer Service
Customer service is always fantastic. My chain snapped and I took the bike into the Sutton store to be repaired/replaced. Received call to say further repairs were necessary (which probably contributed to unexpected chain snap) and given details of what was needed. Not a straight forward repair but Danny worked hard to get the job done and I was super happy to receive call to say it was ready to pick up. These guys are lovely and super helpful and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Excellent Service when buying a bike for my son
As usual, Balfe's Bikes in Sutton were excellent when helping us find a new mountain bike for my son. They had a good selection and my son chose a Scott Aspect 760. The team went out of their way to make sure that it was the correct fit and was set up properly. Many thanks
