Silk Cycles
Servicing & Repairs
Since 2015
ABOUT US
We are a small, fully equipped workshop based in Bakers Yard, Exeter. Providing world class cycle servicing to any bicycle. With nearly 15 years experience, we’ve hit most corners of the cycle industry, including support for BBC charity events as well as MTB guiding. For the last 7 seasons however, alongside running the Silk Workshop I’ve also been a part of UCI world cup DH mountain bike team – FMD Racing where I was the lead mechanic looking after the Seagrave’s and crew. That has came to an end lastyear and Silk Cycles is now the sole focus!

We love fixing anything pedal powered!
Workshop
With over a decade of experience, our knowledge of bicycles spans all disciplines. Our friendly attitude is backed up by industry recognised qualification as mechanics and mountain bike guides, so you can rest assured that both you and your steed are in good hands.
ALL BIKES WELCOME
No matter what your cycles needs are, we can cover them all. Be it the tedious jobs like tweaking those noisy gears or a cable replacement, straight through to suspension servicing and wheel builds. If it’s advice you want, just get in touch. We can help you if you’re just starting out on your cycling journey, or if you’re looking for a high end custom build, Silk Cycles will give you friendly advice with or without the techno babble – whatever suits you.
