It is essential to have regular check ups to maintain the durability of your bike and roadworthiness. At Better Bankside we offer all this for free to our members. We also offer secure bike-marking, to aid the police with returning your bike should it ever be stolen. 

At our regular drop off and collect bike health check the Dr Bike mechanics will check:

- General roadworthiness
- Brake pads and cables are functioning properly
- Gears are functioning properly
- Tyres well inflated and no indication of any inner tube punctures

Depending how long it takes to complete the work on your bike, the mechanics may be able to carry out additional repairs. Mechanics will also diagnose and note any serious problems which are too complex/time-intensive to fix at this session and advise what work needs to be done to correct the issue. All participants will receive a feedback sheet outlining the repairs undertaken and work still needed.

We have a limited number of spaces, and run on a first come first served basis, so book early to avoid disappointment on Eventbrite here, using the password Bankside
