Restore: Complete Bike Deep Clean & Rebuild
Your bike, deep cleaned, and tuned like new.
Some bikes need more than a tune. Maybe yours has seen a few winters, a lot of miles, or one too many rainy commutes. Maybe the drivetrain is black, the shifting is gritty, and it hasn’t felt right in a long time. Or maybe it’s a bike you love, and you want it looking and riding the way it did the day you got it.
Restore is a complete reset. We strip your bike down to the frame, deep clean, then rebuild it and tune it by hand. You get it back clean, quiet and riding like new.
How we restore your bike
- Stripped down to the frame, so nothing is missed
- Every component cleaned in our ultrasonic parts washers, for a deep clean with no residue left behind
- The drivetrain fully degreased: chain, cassette, chainrings and derailleurs
- The frame and wheels washed at our dedicated bike wash station
- Rebuilt, lubricated and tuned with care, part by part
Plus everything in our Tune
- Front and rear brakes adjusted
- Wheels trued
- Headset adjusted
- Bottom bracket adjusted
- Chain tension set
- Full drivetrain and pivot lubrication
- Tires set to the right pressure
- An extended safety inspection, and a test ride before you pick it up
You’ll know everything before we start. We look your bike over with you and tell you about any worn parts and their price before we replace anything.
Restore is right for you if your bike:
- Is dirty, gritty or covered in old grease
- Makes noises a tune hasn’t fixed
- Has high mileage or has been sitting for a while
- Deserves to look and ride as close to new as possible
What you’ll notice: a bike that looks new, shifts cleanly, rides quietly, and has parts that last longer.
Every bike gets the same care: a well-loved commuter, a cargo bike, the bicycle components on your e-bike, or a high-end road or gravel build.
