IFix Bikes
iFix Bikes is the home of first class bicycle repair in Monmouthshire and the Forest of Dean.
iFix bikes is run by a highly experienced bike mechanic who has been a workshop manager in several bike shops as well as being the bike mechanic for the Atherton's on the mountain bike World Cup Circuit. Ed Haythornthwaite has also been the mechanic for the five times Triathlon World Champion Simon Lessing and prepared his road bike for the Olympics. Basically if your bike needs repairing it couldn't be in better hands.
This tool is possibly even older than me, but it’s still an absolute joy to use.
I love cartridge bearing hubs, but what I don’t love are ones that use stupidly small ones in a bid to save weight.
It doesn’t surprise me that this customers hub decided to self destruct when you see the size of the bearings. For reference I’ve compared it to the standard 1/4” bearing found in a Shimano rear hub. Ridiculous, especially when you consider the placement of this bearing means it’s actually under even higher load.
If you need a set of decent tyre levers then don’t look any further than these. Brilliant design, incredibly strong, and if you do ever manage to break one then they come with a no quibble lifetime warranty. £4.99 for tyre levers for life! Bargain!
(Afraid I don’t sell them, just a tip!)
…that’s not how you fix a puncture! 🤦♂️
I don’t just fix bikes, some days I rescue stuck hedgehogs too. Thankfully this one made a full recovery from its ordeal after some food and drink.
I mean who needs PSI really.
