We offer an honest service with free advice. We turn around repairs as quickly as possible. Yes we sell bikes, but the shop is workshop based. We specialise in finding the right products for our customers, whether they be bikes, components or accessories. Anything we don't have in stock can be with us in days. We have a passion for bikes and take pride in our work, from simple repairs to full custom builds or restoration projects.

We believe that the workshop is the heart of any good bikeshop. We have one of the best equiped workshops in Glasgow. We offer a free estimate for any repair we take on and we never carry out any work until we have the go-ahead from you. We aim to turn around repairs within two days so you can be back out there for the weekend.

Yes we do sell bikes. Merida is our main off-the-peg brand but we can get you many other names as well. We adapt every bike to suit it's rider, their style of riding and their budget. We also custom build full bikes for customers, modernise existing rides and refurbish old classics. See our gallery section for some of our custom built projects.

We are a small shop but keep a wide range of accessories in stock and can order pretty much anything else you might need. We stock brands that we know work, that we would use ourselves and that have excellent back up from suppliers.

Here is a selection of the bikes we've built over the years. From mountain bikes to BMX's, tourers and fixed gear track bikes, each is a thing of beauty in it's own right. If you have a project in mind pop in and speak to us about it.

Bikelove has many friends and fans.
One of them is Ewan McGregor.
